There are special-interest groups dotting the landscape in Washington, D.C., for just about any cause you could imagine. They’ve been quite successful, too.

But as Terry Schilling, a husband and father of five kids, surveyed that landscape, he saw a void. That’s why his organization, the American Principles Project, has embarked on a new initiative called the Big Family. It promises to put the needs of families first.

“You’ve got Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Oil, Big Business,” Schilling says. “There are so many bigs, but there’s no big family. And that’s why we chose the name, Big Family. We want the family to be the big guy in the room when it comes to public policy.”

Schilling joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” for a wide-ranging discussion about family values, the threats facing parents and kids, and how the American Principles Project is taking action.
