Who We Help
Public employees
We won the case that stopped big government unions from taking money out of unwilling public employees’ paychecks. Now we’re fighting to protect the Janus rights of every public employee.

Every child has the right to attend a school based on their unique educational needs, and we help you make that happen.
Entrepreneurs
We stop the government from getting in the way of growing your business.
Advocates
We fight for free speech in all its forms, including the ability to support the causes you believe in.
Every day, regular Americans like you – parents, entrepreneurs, advocates and public employees – are being denied their basic freedoms. We’re working to give them an open door to do what’s best for them and their families.
We take on the big fights.
