By Bobby Jindal and Heidi Overton Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are willing to endanger women, children, and parents to advance their radical policies. Kamala Harris chose a running mate who is as extreme on children’s health care as she is. Democrat vice presidential candidate and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz describes his state of Minnesota […]

By Bobby Jindal and Hannah I. Anderson Kamala Harris’ radical ideas would put the government in charge of health care instead of doctors Kamala Harris is a lifelong liberal with a health care platform to the left of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton combined. She promised that “Medicare-for-all is our goal” and committed to abolish […]

By Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich The American people are waking up to President Joe Biden and the Democrats’ healthcare failures. Recent polling by America’s New Majority Project, a project of Gingrich 360, shows that 59% of voters say healthcare has become more expensive under Biden, 59% say health insurance has become more expensive, and […]

 By Bobby Jindal and Steve Beshear Even the most well-intentioned government actions risk backfiring when undertaken without due care and deliberation. Incremental, focused change helps ensure outcomes that align with the best interests of citizens. As former state governors, one a Democrat and one a Republican, we understand that principle, one we worked to make […]

By Bobby Jindal and Charlie Katebi Like food, gas, and other essential products, the public is now paying more for prescription drugs than ever before. In January alone, drug manufacturers raised the price of more than 910 major brand-name drugs by 5% on average, according to the drug price nonprofit 46Brooklyn Research. Between 2011 and […]

Americans repulsed by college students harassing Jewish students were more horrified when the adults in charge refused before Congress to condemn calls for Jewish genocide as a violation of their codes of conduct and suggested the words were fine until acted upon. Three university presidents responded to a congressional query about calls for “intifada” with […]

By Bobby Jindal Liberal Democrats and their allies in the media are beside themselves. The new U.S. House speaker, Mike Johnson (R-La.), must be ridiculed because he simply does not fit into refined Washington culture. He supports Donald Trump, an absolute no-no. He thinks Democrats cheat on elections, tsk-tsk. He is a barbarian who thinks […]

By Bobby Jindal  & Justin Schreiber For more than 46 million people who live in rural areas, a growing healthcare crisis is looming as more than 600 rural hospitals across the United States stand at risk of closing. While ensuring healthcare access for these remote but critical communities has long been a challenge, the growing […]

By Bobby Jindal and Charlie Katebi Consolidation of medical practices brings dishonest billing that costs patients and taxpayers billions. Each year, millions of patients visit their doctors’ offices for a variety of routine services. But in recent years, more Americans are being charged as if they had visited a hospital. And it is because the […]

By Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich Republicans already proved work requirements are smart. Medicaid plan lowers debt, improves health The House GOP’s Limit, Save, Grow Act to raise the debt ceiling contains within it a vitally important reform — work requirements for able-bodied adults to qualify for Medicaid. While the Congressional Budget Office estimates the Medicaid […]

By Bobby Jindal and Neil Gheewala The Biden administration and Congress have made multiple efforts to crack down on “Surprise Medical Bills” to protect patients from exorbitant out-of-network bills during emergency services. These efforts are a positive step, but are incomplete. Patients are still frequently surprised and frustrated by outpatient fees that differ markedly between […]

By Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich Crack down on fraud, practice preventive medicine, establish site-neutral payment policies, and other lessons from the 1990s. Let’s begin with three indisputable facts. First, the Medicare hospital trust fund is projected to run out of money in 2028, triggering a 10% payment cut for medical providers that will get larger […]

By Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich What Americans want from health care coverage is peace of mind Polls show that Americans trust Democrats over Republicans on health care more than any other issue. However, they also show that conservative health care solutions, such as price transparency and increasing choice and competition to lower prices, are […]

By Bobby Jindal and Newt Gingrich Conservatives must ground health care reforms in fairness, compassion, and equality Over the past five years, conservatives have advanced significant health policy reforms. Federal and state price transparency requirements are saving patients money and helping to protect against surprise bills, and legislation in Texas has increased patient and employer […]

by Bobby Jindal Despite their protests to the contrary, Democrats seem determined to keep Donald Trump at the center of the nation’s political stage. From the FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago to Joe Biden’s recent speech at Independence Hall excoriating Trump’s followers, if the current administration wanted to ensure Trump is the 2024 Republican nominee, this […]

by Bobby Jindal Democrats have long portrayed Donald Trump as a singular threat to democracy, who deserves to be driven from the public square and polite company. Their contempt has rested on ever-changing rationales—from crude behavior and tweets to Russian collaboration to the January 6th attack. It seems Democrats would much rather look backwards than […]

by Bobby Jindal President Joe Biden immodestly claims he has accomplished more in his first year than his predecessors. He does admit his failures, namely his inability to cause Republicans to have an “epiphany” and endorse his expansive climate, spending and immigration proposals. He sounds more like a college applicant who claims his greatest shortcoming […]

by Bobby Jindal & Heidi Overton “When will the emergency end?” Justice Amy Coney Barrett asked during the Supreme Court’s recent vaccine mandates hearing. The nation is asking the same question. This is a pivotal moment in the two-year pandemic. Omicron has created record-high daily cases, but severe outcomes are fewer, ushering in a new […]

Democrats’ economic overreach is bad enough, but it isn’t the Republicans’ most effective line of attack. Governor Bobby Jindal, Former Governor of Louisiana, and Chairman of the Center for a Healthy America at America First Policy Institute, discuss his newest op-ed highlighting the relationship between healthcare and higher education, where he says that education needs […]

By Bobby Jindal and Alex Castellanos Both parties often mistake voter frustration with the other team for devotion to their own cause. Hungry true believers tend to energize political parties, but their habit of putting purity above pragmatism leads to impatience with moderate colleagues. Eventually the young purists cannibalize the majorities they need to govern. […]

Lawmakers need to pay attention to what’s actually going on in Senator Sanders’s proposal and the harm it would do to health-care outcomes. By BOBBY JINDAL & TIM PHILLIPS By this point, it should surprise no one that, when lawmakers in Washington propose one spending item, they are speaking about another — and often several […]

Republicans passed a package of market-friendly laws to expand access and increase competition. The Supreme Court ruled in 2012 that the federal government couldn’t force states to expand Medicaid as part of the Affordable Care Act. Ever since, Democrats and hospital lobbyists have looked for ways to push state legislators to let able-bodied adults earning […]

They’re out of power in Washington, but in state capitals they can show they have real solutions. With the Supreme Court having (unsurprisingly) upheld ObamaCare again, Republicans are playing defense on health policy in Washington. Advancing conservative health-policy principles at the state level—where they have majority control in 30 legislatures—allows Republicans to advance federalism while […]

To begin to fix immigration, we must agree the American identity is worth preserving and then work to build an immigration system that nourishes it. Can Washington discuss immigration without devolving into a debate about racism? If we lay down our Twitter weapons, perhaps we could discuss what kind of immigration we need. Should we […]

Biden promised normalcy, but he is trying to restructure nearly every aspect of American society and the economy as part of the progressives’ moral crusade. Biden’s third run for the White House was successful because of who he is not. He won the primary by not being Bernie Sanders and the general by not being […]

Joe Biden projects a calm, moderate demeanor. He is aided by a lifetime spent in Washington, an acquiescent media, and the marked contrast with Donald Trump’s volatility. While Trump’s outsize personality attracted constant media attention and caused his critics and admirers to overestimate the significance of his policies, Biden’s aides have adopted an intentionally understated […]

It is no secret our postsecondary institutions have floundered during the pandemic. In October of 2020, researchers confirmed that disruptions caused by the pandemic have impacted college access, with more than 40 percent of U.S. households canceling all their plans for community college and more than 15 percent of households canceling plans for four-year schooling. […]

  Democrats’ idyllic version of freedom is actually hedonism – the natural result of what happens when an entire movement becomes radically secularized.   When fascism comes to America, it will not be at the point of a gun. It won’t be installed by CPAC’s favorite 2024 candidate, ridiculous QAnon conspirators, or the destitute MAGA […]

Facing a pandemic with historic health and economic consequences, a rising China, and domestic strife over rapidly changing race and gender norms, voters of all ideological backgrounds are looking for political leaders ready to fight for them. Despite President Biden’s superficial calls for unity and bipartisan deal-making, his administration is already pushing the nation’s environmental, […]

Former La. governor on death of Luke Letlow: ‘He would’ve been a great leader for our country’ Former Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal reflects on his friendship with congressman-elect Luke Letlow, who died this week from complications due to coronavirus. Watch: Fox News

The party needs to spend the next few years doing more than opposing Medicare for All. Republicans and Democrats in Washington are stalemated on health care. Republicans long campaigned on repealing the Affordable Care Act and won House and Senate seats on the issue in 2010 and later. Democrats flipped the script in 2018 and […]

He needs someone to blame when he inevitably fails to deliver what his party’s leftists want. Democrats entered Election Day assuming they would expand their House majority and flip Senate seats in Maine, South Carolina, North Carolina, Iowa, Montana, Alaska and Kansas. There were excited whispers of Joe Biden winning red states like Texas, Florida […]

If Republicans don’t appoint a new justice, they’ll alienate their most loyal voters. President Trump’s determination to fill the Supreme Court vacancy has enraged Democrats. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer ominously warns that if Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is replaced and Democrats gain a Senate majority, “nothing is off the table.” It’s not clear what […]

Win or lose, the party won’t return to the old orthodoxy. Populist ideas have put down deep roots. Many Beltway Republicans, not to mention Democrats, are eager to move past the Trump era and return to “regular order.” Democrats are measuring the drapes in the Oval Office, with a confident air reminiscent of Hillary Clinton […]

FOX BUSINESS – Former Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) discusses some prominent Republicans speaking at the 2020 Democratic National Convention and divisions within the Democrat Party. Watch the interview here. 

He runs on normalcy and nostalgia while quietly promising to enact radical policies. Joe Biden is attempting to replicate Nancy Pelosi’s successful 2006 midterm strategy of making the election a referendum on an incumbent Republican president mired in controversy rather than offering a compelling alternative vision. But voters should consider the choice: Mr. Biden quietly […]

Traditional conservatives must incorporate the populists’ genuine concern for working-class Americans before it is too late Joe Biden is already positioned to be the most liberal president in America’s history if he were elected, and yet is still moving further to the left after winning the primary. Yet, the more interesting changes are actually happening within the Republican […]

Heed Biden’s Call for Bipartisan Civility In an age of confrontation, his South Carolina victory suggests many voters have an appetite for comity. Joe Biden has been mocked for touting his ability to work with Republicans, and for his optimism that he’ll do the same if elected president. There are good reasons to mock Mr. […]

How the GOP Can Win on Health Care Voters don’t want the left’s radical plans, but they may settle for them if the right doesn’t offer alternatives. Democratic presidential candidates are repeating one of President Obama’s worst mistakes, one that arguably cost Democrats the 2010 midterms. Rather than focusing on bringing down medical costs—which are […]

The angry Left is irrational, the president thrives amid drama, and the media can’t turn away. Buckle up. Trump has an amazing ability to excite both his supporters and his critics; rare is the individual who has not taken a side. His strongest partisans think that Trump can do no wrong, and they show a […]

Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously observed that conservatives recognize “culture, not politics, determines the success of a society,” while liberals believe “politics can change a culture and save it from itself.” Yet today’s conservatives and liberals both tend to demand cultural results from political and economic systems. Liberals invest ever more moral meaning into politics, and […]

Conservatives, facing an overwhelmingly liberal academic environment, often respond by pointing to their better standing in the business and political spheres, otherwise known as the real world. However, as yesterday’s academic protesters become today’s academic establishment, Marxism and other radical ideas are making a comeback, expanding beyond the ivory towers, and infecting the nation’s political […]

Proponents of school choice offer many arguments for charter authorizations, vouchers and education tax credits. For parents, the reasons are often straightforward. Some cite better discipline, dress codes and an emphasis on teaching their traditional or religious values. Others mention plentiful school supplies, increased personal attention or a shorter commute to school. Policy analysts may […]

When Republicans failed to repeal ObamaCare last year, it recalled the old line about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. That loss, however, should not be allowed to overshadow an important Republican success on health care. Millions of Medicare beneficiaries now get their coverage through private plans under Medicare Advantage—a quiet step forward that […]

Barack Obama famously aspired to be transformative like Ronald Reagan rather than incremental like Bill Clinton. What about Donald Trump? His friends and foes alike seem to share only the conviction that he changes everything. But it’s worth considering how lasting his legacy will prove to be. What will happen to the conservative populist movement […]
