Grapevine, Texas – This year’s Conservative Political Action Conference once again proved why it remains the heartbeat of the America First movement. From March 25-28, thousands of dedicated patriots gathered to celebrate President Donald Trump’s transformative leadership, cheer Republican legislative wins, and demand unwavering enforcement of our sovereignty at home and strength abroad.
Speakers including Sen. Ted Cruz spotlighted concrete achievements: massive tax cuts, expanded border security funding, increased military spending, elimination of taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security benefits, plus bold expansion of school choice. These are the policies that put American families, workers, and faith-based communities first – restoring economic strength and defending the God-given rights that built this exceptional nation.
Immigration enforcement took center stage with thunderous applause. Administration officials made clear there will be no backing down on deportations. The message to criminal illegal aliens and the radical left was unmistakable: America is no longer a sanctuary for lawbreakers. Secure borders protect our veterans, our children, and our constitutional republic from the chaos that open-border policies unleashed for years.
On the international front, CPAC confronted the realities of the ongoing conflict with Iran. While some voices wisely cautioned against endless ground wars or escalation that burdens American taxpayers, the conference stood firmly with President Trump’s decisive actions. Exiled Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi received a hero’s welcome and standing ovations as he called for the complete overthrow of the mullahs’ terrorist regime. “President Trump is making America great again. I intend to make Iran great again,” he declared, honoring Iranians killed in anti-regime protests and envisioning a free Iran as a stable partner to the West – free from nuclear threats, terrorism, and regional blackmail.
Pahlavi urged the administration to “finish the job” and reject any partial deals with a regime whose “DNA of terror” makes it an unreliable partner. His presence, alongside Iranian-Americans waving flags and wearing “Make Iran Great Again” hats, underscored the global reach of conservative principles: liberty, stability, and opposition to tyranny.
The annual straw poll reinforced the movement’s direction, with Vice President JD Vance leading for 2028 and Secretary of State Marco Rubio showing strong momentum – clear signs of unity behind proven Trump allies committed to the same agenda of faith, family, and freedom.
For pro-life, pro-family, constitutional conservatives across Nevada and the heartland, CPAC 2026 delivered encouragement and resolve. America remains the world’s last best hope because we refuse to surrender our borders, our values, or our security to radical ideologies at home or abroad. We honor the religious foundations of our nation, protect innocent life, defend traditional marriage and family, and stand ready to support leaders who put American citizens first.
President Trump’s influence continues to shape the Republican Party and the conservative movement. As we move forward, the charge is clear: enforce our laws, secure our future, reject weakness, and keep fighting for the soul of this great republic. Nevada patriots stand ready to do our part in preserving the blessings of liberty for generations to come.
