First, I want to echo Drew’s comments. While I’ve subscribed to Ad Fontes for several years, I much appreciate the immediacy of your Substack. Of which this post is a signal example. Moreover, I particularly appreciate your closing it with a call to action by our legislators. There is certainly much low hanging fruit that could-and indeed should—be addressed legislatively. I look forward to reading the review of Barba-Kay’s book as I have time to do it justice—and probably buying a copy for further study.
Brad, I’m so glad I came across your Substack! Since becoming more familiar with your work and writing in the last couple of weeks, you have put your finger on some things I’ve been thinking about for some time, but couldn’t quite find the words to voice. I appreciate your own willingness to “take stock” of what’s happening, while also maintaining an optimistic outlook that is willing to take action. If the “Future for the Family” document were ever to become a petition, I’d be the first one to sign! Blessings!

P.S. I signed the petition as well.

Thanks Drew! FWIW, although it's not a formal petition, we are collecting additional signatures on the statement here: https://afutureforthefamily.org/addsign/
We'll be meeting with key policymakers starting next week to begin translating the statement into more concrete action items.
Just signed! And it was an honor to do so! Profoundly grateful for your work.
