The signs of America's renewal are becoming increasingly apparent as we approach our nation's 250th birthday. From Wisconsin's overwhelming support for election integrity to Arkansas' groundbreaking civics education reforms, citizens across political divides are finding common ground on fundamental principles.
The latest polling reveals a remarkable shift in public sentiment. Even CNN's own data analyst reported that President Trump's approval ratings have reached historic highs—surpassing Obama's numbers for seven of his eight years in office. With 42% of Americans believing the country is moving in the right direction (the highest since George W. Bush's presidency), there's a growing consensus that transcends partisan divisions.
In Arkansas, a visionary "Founding Fathers bill" will soon require students to understand not just what the Founders created, but why they created it. This deeper exploration of phrases like "the Laws of Nature and Nature's God" and concepts such as inalienable rights provides the foundation for a renewed appreciation of America's exceptional system of government.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court appears poised to deliver another victory for religious liberty in a Wisconsin case where tax authorities attempted to define religious organizations so narrowly that even Catholic charities were excluded. This continues the Court's consistent pattern of strengthening First Amendment protections in recent years.
President Trump's executive order addressing crime and homeless encampments in Washington DC demonstrates practical leadership on issues affecting our nation's capital. When even DC's mayor described their meeting as "great," it suggests the possibility for cooperation across political divides on matters of governance and public safety.
As we prepare for America's semiquincentennial celebration, now is the perfect time to deepen your understanding of our founding principles. Join us at WallBuilders as we work to restore appreciation for the constitutional values that have made America the most successful republic in world history.
