Federal Spending and the National Debt
In this 10-part series we’ll examine why the highly partisan approach being used to control federal spending and the national debt has both failed the country and further divided Americans. We’ll discover a better way to address these problems by conducting an analysis that enables us to understand why federal spending is inevitably in the red, and why the national debt has continued to grow.

Through analysis and research we’ll better understand the multi-faceted nature of gun violence and identify common ground solutions that can reverse the growing tragedy of gun violence.
