From day one, establishment politicians teach members of Congress that if they play ball, they will be showered with special interest donations, receive plum committee assignments, and attract adoration from the media.
^^
They also learn that if they fight for conservative principles they’ll be denied the resources and access needed to be effective. This is how the D.C. Swamp operates.</Description></Stakeholder><Stakeholder StakeholderTypeType="Person"><Name>Jim DeMint</Name><Description>This is why former South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint launched CPI in 2017.

Our Conservative Partnership Center provides a home base and a networking hub for conservatives. We help conservatives to build the relationships and support necessary to thrive in an environment that too often strips them of their resolve. Nearly every day of the week, you’ll find our facilities filled with conservatives connecting with one another, recharging, and getting back out to win. From our “First Fridays” gatherings for young staffers to our regular working groups, there’s always a chance to forge new strategic relationships here at CPI. </OtherInformation><Objective><Name>Gatherings</Name><Description>Host “First Fridays” gatherings for young staffers</Description><Identifier>_bd49ec04-769d-11ed-bb26-8016f582ea00</Identifier><SequenceIndicator>4.1</SequenceIndicator><Stakeholder StakeholderTypeType="Generic_Group"><Name>Young Congressional Staff</Name><Description/></Stakeholder><OtherInformation/></Objective><Objective><Name>Working Groups</Name><Description>Sponsor working groups</Description><Identifier>_c68eb1d8-7723-11ed-8684-8bba0a83ea00</Identifier><SequenceIndicator>4.2</SequenceIndicator><Stakeholder StakeholderTypeType="Generic_Group"><Name/><Description/></Stakeholder><OtherInformation/></Objective></Goal></StrategicPlanCore><AdministrativeInformation><StartDate>2017-12-31</StartDate><EndDate/><PublicationDate>2022-12-08</PublicationDate><Source>https://www.cpi.org/about/</Source><Submitter><GivenName>Owen</GivenName><Surname>Ambur</Surname><PhoneNumber/><EmailAddress>Owen.Ambur@verizon.net</EmailAddress></Submitter></AdministrativeInformation></PerformancePlanOrReport>
