Americans for Prosperity’s (AFP) is a network of organized and influential citizen leaders in 35 state chapters working to change the nation one state at a time.
AFP is holding its annual Defending the Dream Conference this week in Columbus, OH, where speakers include presidential candidates Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Bobby Jindal, Rick Perry, and Marco Rubio. Each plans to speak about why he should be considered the nation’s next leader.
I was able to catch a few pictures and even talked with a few of the protesters. They had no response to my question “Why are you against Right To Work?”
