From Joe Biden falling asleep to Greta Thunberg singing, the sham that is climate change alarmism is being exposed.

On November 9, 2021, Goodman Institute for Public Policy Research (https://www.goodmaninstitute.org/) will host the First Annual Goodman Institute Dinner at The Empire Room in Dallas, Texas. It will bring like-minded people together, local and national political and community leaders, for a memorable evening dedicated to the institute's initiative, the Healthcare Contract With America. The evening will begin with a VIP Reception followed by dinner and a special presentation honoring our Texas Governor, Greg Abbott. Special guests include Congressman Pete Sessions, Congressman Van Taylor, and Congressman Chip Roy that will participate in a congressional roundtable on the year ahead. The Dinner will be moderated by HON. Nan Hayworth, M.D. The First Annual Goodman Institute Dinner will highlight the Healthcare Contract With America. This is a series of easy-to-understand reforms that will empower patients and release the power of markets to reduce costs and improve the quality of care. The Contract has been developed with the help of Newt Gingrich, the Heritage Foundation, and representatives of more than 70 think tanks and public policy organizations. Goodman Institute was founded by Dr. John C. Goodman along with some of the nation’s very best scholars. The mission of the Goodman Institute is to find private alternatives to government programs that are not working. Among the many successes, Goodman Institute scholars are responsible for Health Savings Accounts, Roth IRAs, and the ability of seniors to continue working without losing their Social Security benefits. Its tax scholars produced the original design for the corporate tax cuts that became law in 2017.
