Are they so far gone to the Leftists that combating DEI is an effort in futility?Ben Armenta understands the frustrations conservatives face when dealing with higher education, but from his perspective, there are glimmers of hope worth exploring. In this presentation, Ben shares about the importance of universities in our society and why the GOP should fight to reclaim the ones who value Liberty and Truth.Ben Armenta has been a mainstay in Texas politics for the last decade. As a former businessman, he has helped candidates get elected all across the state and has been a staunch advocate for family-conservative values. He has volunteered as a lobbyist for Texas Right to Life and been an outspoken opponent of the Democrat Trans-ideology Movement in our public schools. Ben was a GOP candidate for Texas Land Commissioner and most recently a candidate for Chairman of the Republican Party of Texas. In 2022 he launched a podcast aimed at helping families connect and understand conservative policies. He currently serves on the boards of Hispanic Republicans of Texas and the Education H.E.L.P.S. America Foundation, a non-profit aimed at combating DEI in higher education.Ben lives in Katy with his wife Kristi and their two high school kids, Lilly and Jack.
