Eagle Forum Celebrates Historic 50th Anniversary And Reinforces Its Mission To Fight For Freedom

(ST. LOUIS) Eagle Forum celebrated its Golden Anniversary in St. Louis, MO over the weekend at Eagle Council 50, where hundreds of Eagle activists came together to continue the fight for our nation’s strongest asset: freedom. Attendees heard from Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillion, former congresswoman and now Dean of Regent University School of Government Michele Bachmann, and Wallbuilders founder David Barton. Additional experts spoke on the Constitution, education, life, protecting children from radical ideologies, and additional other issues important to the pro-family movement.

“Our 50th anniversary celebration of the history and future of Eagle Forum was a glorious recognition of the power and influence of wives and mothers in America. Eagle Council 50 illustrated how engaged and energized our activists are to take on today’s biggest threats to our country,” said Eagle Forum Chairman Anne Schlafly Cori, daughter of Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly. “Eagles from across the country came to reinforce our grassroots effort to make a difference in their hometowns. The kindred spirit they share is our organization’s greatest asset.”

“Eagle Forum is celebrating its Golden Anniversary by taking on its biggest fight yet, thwarting the DOJ and its attempt to intimidate and silence our organization through the unprecedented subpoena it has served our non-profit, advocacy organization,” Kris Ullman, President of Eagle Forum, said.  “Our members are committed to preserving freedom of speech, one of our most important rights, for all Americans whether or not we agree on the issues. The activists who came to celebrate 50 years of Eagle Forum always fighting for the defense of our Constitution, freedom, and liberty, are today dedicating themselves to preserving the rights of parents to protect their kids’ gender and education, as well as protecting the life of the unborn, and preserving our Constitution as it was written.”

Recently, Eagle Forum of Alabama filed a motion in U.S. federal district court seeking to quash the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) unprecedented subpoena of August 9, 2022, demanding all information related to the non-profit’s legislative activities promoting the Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion And Protection Act (VCAP) since 2017. Eagle Forum of Alabama will file a response to the Justice Department’s opposition to their motion to quash on Wednesday, September 28. A hearing on the motion to quash will be on October 14 at 10 a.m. in Montgomery, Alabama.
