From Compulsion to Choice: The Future Is Education Freedom

Thursday June 12, 2025 1:00pm - 1:45pm PDT

If public school enrollment is declining and families are opting out, the solution isn’t force—it’s freedom. Yet today, across the country, we still threaten parents with legal action to compel schooling. If public schools are so valuable, would they exist without compulsory education laws?

How do we address the fears policymakers face when considering the repeal of a law first enacted in 1852? This panel confronts the uncomfortable origins of America’s compulsory schooling mandates and how they continue to stifle innovation, parental rights, and the rise of alternative education models like homeschooling and microschools.

Join us for a thought-provoking debate on a key question in foreign policy: "In order to preserve freedom at home, America must make an effort to export it abroad." Scott Horton, a staunch advocate for non-interventionism and author of Fool’s Errand, will argue that America should refrain from intervention abroad to protect its freedoms at home. Countering him, Wang Dan, the Chinese pro-democracy activist and leader of the Tiananmen Square protests, will defend the notion that the U.S. has a moral obligation to promote liberty across the globe, especially in authoritarian regimes. This debate will examine the balance between defending American freedoms and the global responsibility to spread democracy, offering powerful perspectives on America’s role in the world. Don’t miss this lively and insightful discussion on the future of freedom, both at home and abroad.

California has long been a trendsetter for progressive policies, but its rapid adoption of high taxes, excessive regulations, and energy mandates has created a blueprint for failure rather than prosperity. In this eye-opening session, we’ll dive into the lessons other states can learn from California’s policy missteps, from the impact of bureaucratic overreach to the consequences of a burgeoning cost of living. With a focus on how to protect freedom and liberty in the face of these challenges, this conversation will equip policymakers and citizens alike with the knowledge needed to keep these “California ideas” from creeping into their own states.
