National Summit on Principled Conservatism
Event Information
About this Event
Principles First, in partnership with Stand Up Republic, is excited to announce a one-day grassroots summit in Washington, DC on Saturday, February 29 focused on reviving principled conservatism in the United States. We look forward to bringing together conservative speakers, thought leaders, and grassroots activists for a day of panels, speeches, networking, and substantive discussion about what conservatism means today and where the conservative movement must go from here.
This promises to be an exciting first-of-its-kind event. The speakers lined up for this gathering will be some of the leading thinkers in the principled lane and many of our #PrinciplesFirst grassroots activists from around the country are planning to travel in for the day. It will be the first time in some time that much of the principled conservative movement has gathered in one place.
Other gatherings are hosted in fancy hotels and cost hundreds of dollars to attend. Ours will be different. We're charging each attendee a small nominal fee merely to ensure attendance and provide accurate headcount estimates. Principles First is a completely volunteer organization - no one makes a dollar off of our activism. This is about our ideas and we want everyone to attend who can.
More details will be announced in early February, but please save the date and register now to save your spot.
