Researchers have assumed that a single additive scale across conservative issues can identify the base of support for the Moral Majority as an organization. We examine general support for the Moral Majority separately from sup- port for six specific issues: teaching creationism, voluntary public school prayer, mil- itary defense spending, gun control, pornography and abortion.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 2 ABSTRACT The aim of this research is to investigate whether the Reagan administration was influenced by ‘New Right’ ideas. Foreign policy issues were chosen as test cases because the presidency has more power in this area which is why it could promote an aggressive stance toward the United Nations and encourage withdrawal from UNESCO with little impunity. Chapter 1 deals with American society after 1945. It shows how the ground was set for the rise of Reagan and the New Right as America moved from a strong affinity with New Deal liberalism to a new form of conservatism, which the New Right and Reagan epitomised. Chapter 2 analyses the New Right as a coalition of three distinctive groups: anti-liberals, New Christian Right, and neoconservatives.

  • Capitol Insurrection at Center of Conservative Movement
    Capitol Insurrection At Center Of Conservative Movement: At Least 43 Governors, Senators And Members Of Congress Have Ties To Groups That Planned January 6th Rally And Riots. SUMMARY: On January 6, 2021, a rally in support of overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election “turned deadly” when thousands of people stormed the U.S. Capitol at Donald Trump’s urging. Even Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who rarely broke with Trump, has explicitly said, “the mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the President and other powerful people.” These “other powerful people” include a vast array of conservative officials and Trump allies who perpetuated false claims of fraud in the 2020 election after enjoying critical support from the groups that fueled the Capitol riot. In fact, at least 43 current Governors or elected federal office holders have direct ties to the groups that helped plan the January 6th rally, along with at least 15 members of Donald Trump’s former administration. The links that these Trump-allied officials have to these groups are: Turning Point Action, an arm of right-wing Turning Point USA, claimed to send “80+ buses full of patriots” to the rally that led to the Capitol riot, claiming the event would be one of the most “consequential” in U.S. history. • The group spent over $1.5 million supporting Trump and his Georgia senate allies who claimed the election was fraudulent and supported efforts to overturn it. • The organization hosted Trump at an event where he claimed Democrats were trying to “rig the election,” which he said would be “the most corrupt election in the history of our country.” • At a Turning Point USA event, Rep.

  • Issue Background Over the Past Several Years, Gun Violence
    Gun Violence Prevention Background NFTY Mechina 2015 Issue Background Over the past several years, gun violence prevention has once again been at the forefront of North American political discourse, spurred in large part by the movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado, the Navy Yard shooting in Washington, D.C., and the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, among others. The costs of gun violence in the United States are staggering: Consider these numbers: 8: Each day, eight young Americans under age 19 die from gun violence. 12: The rate of gun deaths among America’s children is 12 times higher than those of the 25 other wealthiest nations combined. 30,000: Over 30,000 Americans die each year from gun violence. $100 Billion: The estimated medical and social cost of gun violence in America, every single year. Nearly 80% of this cost is borne by taxpayers. The vast majority of Americans, even gun owners, support common sense gun safety measures. According to the National Opinion Research Center, 75% of gun owners support mandatory registration of handguns, as does 85% of the general public. 66% of gun owners and 80% of the general public favor mandatory background checks in private handgun sales, such as gun shows. However, some Americans believe that such gun control measures are unnecessary, ineffective, and contrary to the wording and spirit of the Second Amendment of the Constitution, which states, “A well-regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.” Groups such as the National Rifle Association (NRA) argue that law-abiding citizens, like hunters and sportsmen, will suffer the most under restrictive gun control laws, while criminals will always be able to access guns no matter what restrictions or gun control measures are enacted.
