How Constitutional Is Your Representative?
Gary Benoit is the editor of The New American magazine and author of Vanguard of the Americanist Cause: A Close Look at The John Birch Society. A veteran of the fight for freedom and a JBS insider for nearly 50 years, Benoit brings decades of experience defending the Constitution, limited government, and American independence. In this episode of Birch’N the USA, Gary joins hosts Ty Bodden and Christian Gomez to discuss his new book, the history and mission of The John Birch Society, and the latest edition of The Freedom Index — The New American’s congressional scorecard measuring how faithfully members of Congress adhere to the U.S. Constitution. How well is your representative following the Constitution? Which members of Congress are consistently defending constitutional principles — and which are falling short? Gary, Ty, and Christian break down the latest congressional votes, examine what the scores reveal, and discuss why holding elected officials accountable to their constitutional oath remains essential to preserving liberty.
