Today, we mourn the lives lost on September 11 and honor the Americans who answered with courage and sacrifice.
On this 25th anniversary, we are reminded that freedom endures only when people are willing to defend it, serve others, and sacrifice for something larger than themselves.
We will never forget.
Thank you for an incredible SPN Annual Meeting.

Congratulations to Center of the American Experiment, winner of the 2026 Bob Williams Award for Securing Durable Freedom!
Through two years of relentless investigative reporting, American Experiment exposed more than $9 billion in fraud across Minnesota’s social-service programs, bringing national attention to a story that demanded accountability.
Their reporting reached millions, helped prompt congressional hearings, and contributed to a major policy victory: the creation of Minnesota’s first government-wide Office of Inspector General to investigate fraud and pursue criminal prosecutions.
Congratulations to the entire American Experiment team! @MNThinkTank #spnam
Congratulations to the Freedom Foundation, winner of the 2026 Bob Williams Award for Biggest Win for Freedom!
After a three-year effort, Freedom Foundation helped secure a major victory in Idaho, ending roughly $4.4 million a year in taxpayer-facilitated dues deductions for more than 5,000 teachers.
The effort began with comprehensive research into how public dollars supported union operations and activism. It continued through three legislative sessions, a statewide grassroots campaign, and a difficult legislative fight before the bill was finally signed into law in April.
Congratulations to the entire Freedom Foundation team! @FreedomFdtn #spnam
Congratulations to the Goldwater Institute, winner of the 2026 Bob Williams Award for Guardian of Liberty!
When sweeping water restrictions threatened housing development across fast-growing Maricopa County, Goldwater took action. Representing the Home Builders Association of Central Arizona, the Institute challenged rules imposed without legislative authorization or formal rulemaking.
In April, a judge struck down the restrictions, restoring the lawful approval process and protecting property rights and housing opportunity for Arizonans.
The victory also reaffirmed a principle that reaches far beyond Arizona: Government agencies must follow the law, and not make it.
Congratulations to the entire Goldwater Institute team! @GoldwaterInst #spnam
