No institution that hesitates to condemn antisemitism and hatred or that gives a platform to those who spread them can credibly claim to uphold the vision that once made the Heritage Foundation the world's most respected conservative think tank. And, I cannot, in good conscience, remain on a board that is unwilling to confront the lapses in judgment that have harmed its credibility, its culture, and the conservative movement it once helped shape.

As part of that influence, Kevin Roberts -- president of the powerful Heritage Foundation and a key influence on Trump's policy decisions -- earlier this year visited Paris to speak to what he called "leaders of the French right", whom he declined to name. Roberts said during the trip in May that, while the foundation did not officially represent the US government, it could still knit together a network of ideologically aligned groups.

Since its creation in 2000, the Oversight Project has launched more than 100,000 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests from federal offices and agencies and more than 100 lawsuits against the Joe Biden administration.

Edwin J. Feulner Jr. co-founded the Heritage Foundation in 1973 and served as its longest-serving president until 2013, with subsequent terms in 2017 and 2018.
