This is a neocon project. Some of the speakers are from the neocon elite and none of the speakers are from outside the neocon orbit. And notice the neocon/natcon overlap in particular.
The Jewish Leadership Conference (JLC) aims to develop a new political and cultural vision for American Jewry, and to bring together Jews who believe that conservative ideas can help strengthen the Jewish people, the Jewish nation, and the American civic future.
In December 2017 the JLC convened our inaugural conference on Jews and Conservatism, followed by ever larger gatherings of Jewish patriots in 2018 and 2019. Along with political leaders and rabbis, journalists and commentators, educators and activists, we came together in the belief that now is the time for American Jews to articulate and advance a new agenda: in defense of religious freedom, in favor of school choice, allied with Israel in a dangerous world, tough-minded in the global fight against anti-Semitism, and supportive of the traditional family.
We invite everyone who is interested in these ideas to learn more about our core principles, watch videos from our past conferences, and read our inaugural essay from the May 2017 issue of Commentary Magazine, “Jewish Conservatism: A Manifesto.”
