Conservatives Rally at Pa. Leadership Conference; emphasize economy and border security
April 6, 2024
The second day of the 2024 Pennsylvania Leadership Conference was jam-packed with panel discussions addressing expected GOP views on issues like abortion, the U.S. southern border, and winning over Latino voters. But the one overall message was to call on conservatives to be involved in the upcoming election.
“I’m here to tell you that now is the time more than any other time in our lifetimes to reject what the radical left wants you to be, which is to be discouraged, and instead dig ever deeper than we ever have before because this is the year 2024 when we take this country,” said Kevin Roberts, President of the Heritage Foundation.
Roberts thanked those in attendance for being the “unsung heroes” of the conservative movement in the U.S., claiming that they are fighting in what he calls the “Second American Revolution.”
“I’m not necessarily suggesting that we’re going to enter a season of warfare,” Roberts said. “But what I am suggesting is, at least figuratively, that the radical left has brought this culture of war to our feet. And we darn well better wake up and fight.”
