Overview

"In his provocative new book ""The Conservative Agenda,"" author Jack Donahue lays out a vision for America's future rooted in traditional conservative principles. Donahue argues that over the past few decades, both major political parties have lost their way and no longer truly represent the values and beliefs of a silent majority of Americans who hold more conservative views on issues like taxes, government spending, regulation, and social policies. A key part of Donahue's thesis is that America needs a renewed culture of self-reliance, personal responsibility, faith, and family. He critiques the modern welfare state as creating a cycle of dependency and robbing people of dignity. Donahue makes a data-driven case that conservative policies like lower taxes, fewer regulations, and empowering states and local communities lead to greater prosperity, civic participation, and human flourishing. He also argues for policies that encourage two-parent households, church membership, and civic engagement. When it comes to hot-button social issues like immigration, race, abortion, and LGBT rights, Donahue advocates nuanced conservative positions grounded in compassion even while defending traditional values. He argues that real diversity comes from unity around shared American ideals, not just ethnic fractionalization. Overall, he strives for polemic-free, open-minded debate grounded in facts and evidence. Donahue puts forward a practical policy agenda for translating broad conservative principles into tangible change in Washington D.C. and state capitals. From economic, education, and tax reforms, to healthcare and environmental policies, he delves into the specifics of a conservative governing vision. Donahue concludes with a call for civic renewal in America, arguing that getting back to conservative ideals offers the best way forward."
