Capital Connection – Today’s PA & NY Issues

It’s our weekly Family Life News cultural/political/social roundtable, for the week of 9/27/2024

It’s “Capital Connection”, the Friday news feature from Family Life News.  Noon Report anchor Bob Price guides our ten-minute conversation, digging into the issues in our two states — and far beyond.

Christian advocates Jason McGuire and Michael Gere have commentary from the two capital cities on these major issues in the news:

• NY’s regents pause consideration on policies for transgender inclusion in girls scholastic sports, but will such rules be back after the election?
• Do voters realize that Proposition One may enshrine such gender diversity in the New York Constitution? What will the “Equal Rights Amendment” do to women’s rights, parental rights, and parental notifications about counseling and medical treatments for their children?
• Thousands gathered in Harrisburg this week. What is happening in the battle over abortion regulations?
• What do our watchdogs see as trends in legislative priorities this fall, swings in the 2024 election, and voters’ confidence in how the ballots are distributed and counted?

 

 

 

Our guests on most editions of “Capital Connection” are Jason McGuire, the executive director of the New York Families Foundation and New York Families Action, and Michael Geer, the president of the Pennsylvania Family Institute.
