Ed Schweitzer joined the Board of Directors of Advancing American Freedom in June 2026. In his own words:

“I’m honored to join the board of Advancing American Freedom (AAF.) As we enter our 250th year as a nation, we face a $40 trillion national debt, $2 trillion budget deficits, and interest payments that dwarf key federal obligations. I believe we can solve these problems by getting back to first principles, with civility. After all, we have so much more in common than we do in difference. AAF unites free-market thinkers and policy experts committed to the long-term future of our nation and the well-being of generations to come.”
