This is a move Trump applauded.
“The America first Policy Institute is launching to continue the transformative changes that happened over the last four years,” AFPI President and CEO Brooke Rollins stated.
Rollins was the director of the Domestic Policy Council in the Trump Administration and before that, she ran the White House Office of American Innovation.
“The Trump Administration’s policy agenda created the greatest economy of our lifetimes,” Rollins added.
“We’re going to innovate and advocate for policies to put the American people first. This means securing our Nation’s border, reviving American industry, reasserting American primacy, and most of all, restoring American optimism,” she explained.
AFPI wrote on its website that it would advance policies to secure borders, advance merit-based policies, and safeguard election integrity.
The Institute will also advance policies that “respect life, uphold God-given liberties, preserve freedom of expression, and restore basic humanity,” according to Rollins.
AFPI also noted that it would pursue a hardline China policy, saying it will research and develop “policies that study how decades of America’s accommodation of Communist China has nurtured an existential rival to our Nation and our livelihood as we know it.”
As reported by Axios, AFPI is reportedly the largest pro-Trump outside group with a first-year budget of $20 million.
Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are the informal advisors to the nonprofit organization.
Trump encouraged the launch of AFPI.
“The patriots assembling the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) are some of the greatest champions for freedom, free enterprise, national greatness, and the primacy of American workers, families, and communities, that our Nation has ever seen,” Trump said in a statement.
“Linda McMahon, Brooke Rollins, Larry Kudlow, Rick Perry, General Kellogg, and the rest of the freedom warriors at AFPI have my full support as they work not only to preserve the historic accomplishments of my Administration but also to propel the America First Agenda into the future. I look forward to working with them to save America.”
