Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement opposing the Credit Card Competition Act.

“The Credit Card Competition Act will negatively disrupt the payments network while imposing adverse impacts on consumers and community financial institutions all under the guise of ‘competition.’ Conservatives should not be supporting yet another Republican-led effort that empowers the Federal Reserve, further regulates private sector companies, and harms consumers,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “AAF calls on Congress to reject this amendment in the upcoming Senate minibus and instead focus on free market priorities that reduce the regulatory burden on the banking system, remove barriers to entry to promote competition, and eliminate the federal intervention of the Biden administration that only punishes American families and businesses.”

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement after President Trump stated that a six-week abortion ban was a “terrible thing and terrible mistake.”

“These comments from a leading candidate for the GOP nomination are extremely worrying. Creating a culture of life requires courage, vision, and leadership – not political triangulation,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “There is no more important cause than life. We already have one party in this country that has abandoned the cause. Lord help us if we have two.”

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement following new regulations from California’s Air Resource Board (CARB), mandating the adoption of electric semi-trucks starting January 1, 2024.

“The American trucking industry is a critical link in our supply chain, ensuring consumers and businesses have access to goods and services that keep our economy moving. These regulations from CARB threaten the stability of our supply chains by forcing unreliable and costly electric trucks into the fleets of firms and independent truckers.

These regulations are originating in California, but Gavin Newsom’s disastrous policies have often served as the foundation of the D.C. Democrats’ legislative agenda. Conservatives must continue to fight against the Left’s climate radicalism, reject the forced shift to electric vehicles, and protect American families and businesses from draconian regulations.”

Advancing American Freedom will continue to lead the fight against the Left’s “green” agenda. Additional resources are below:

AAF: Unleashing American Energy

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement of support after the House passed the Preserving Choice in Vehicle Purchases Act.

“The American people should never be told by their government which vehicle they are allowed to buy,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “The Biden administration has remained focused on crippling American industries and the lives of the American people and AAF applauds the work of the House to keep the government and the Far-Left’s climate policies out of the choices of everyday Americans.”

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement ahead of the House Oversight Committee’s Hearing on the ‘Inflation Reduction Act’.

“In what has become a theme for this administration, President Biden’s promises have again fallen short. After one year of implementation, his so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ has done nothing to reduce the burden on the American people and has only fueled increases in inflation and cost of living. The Biden administration must be held accountable for record-high energy costs, draconian climate mandates, and assaults on healthcare freedoms,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “The Oversight Committee is doing valuable work calling to attention Democrats’ disastrous legislation, and AAF will continue to fight back against their overreaching regulatory agenda.”

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement after the release of a new report on how state pension funds voted on pro-ESG shareholder resolutions in 2022.

“ESG investing has grown even more pervasive than what was previously known, and the conservative movement should push back on companies that risk pensioners retirement funds while enacting a radical Far-Left agenda,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “Advancing American Freedom will continue to be a conservative voice that calls out these invasive ESG resolutions that continually threaten American retirees’ pensions.”

Background

Advancing American Freedom released a Future of Freedom legislative agenda focused on combatting invasive ESG policies.

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement after inflation picked up and gas prices increased over August.

“The Biden administration and the so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ are responsible for the record high inflation rates the American people are experiencing,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “The Biden administration’s war on energy and out-of-control spending have stuck the American people with high prices in grocery stores and at the pump, and it needs to stop.”

Background

Advancing American Freedom has been a proponent for American energy independence and released a Future of Freedom legislative agenda focused on unleashing American energy.

AAF also led a three-part $10 million ad campaign calling out the radical energy policies of Joe Biden.

September 7, 2023

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement after Biden’s Department of the Interior reversed seven 10-year leases on Alaska oil and gas.

“Yesterday’s axing of oil and gas leases in Alaska is one more bureaucratic overstep in the Biden administration’s continued war on American energy,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “The Biden administration continues to hurt U.S. energy production and everyday American lives by issuing draconian mandates and creating bureaucratic hoops for energy producers to jump through, all of which are hurting our nation’s energy security, which the U.S. desperately needs as foreign tensions increase and the economy struggles.”

Background

AAF has been an outspoken advocate for achieving American energy independence and becoming the dominant world producer of energy.

In February, AAF released a legislative agenda that would combat the Biden administration’s woke climate agenda and launch a new era of American energy dominance.

AAF has also regularly called out the Biden administration’s radical climate agenda; from climate mandates on vehicles, Biden’s ‘green tax credits’, and gas stove bans.
