CPAC will welcome former Texas Gov. Rick Perry in their speakers lineup at the annual gathering of conservatives in February, The Washington Times has learned. “If 2014 taught us anything, it’s that Americans are looking for a positive vision for this country, and 2016 will be no different. Republicans have the chance to be the party of ideas and opportunity, and it’s clear that principled conservative leadership is the change we need to get America back on the right track. I look forward to sharing my vision for a prosperous America for our children and grandchildren at CPAC,” says Mr. Perry, a potential presidential contender. The four-day event - formally titled the Conservative Action Political Conference, begins Feb. 25 at the glittering National Harbor on the banks of the Potomac River a few miles south of the nation’s capital. Mr. Perry joins such luminaries as Sens. Rand Paul and Tim Scott, Ben Carson, Rick Santorum, Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin on the extensive list of confirmed speakers. “Gov. Perry is no stranger to CPAC or conservative politics. As governor of Texas, he stood for the Second Amendment, fiscal responsibility and better education for all. He fought for conservative principles, enacted landmark government reforms, and the results should speak for themselves,” says American Conservative Union Chairman Matt Schlapp “Businesses have been fleeing progressive states in staggering numbers to move to Texas because of his leadership. I am certain that his unique brand of optimism will continue to inspire the activists and students who attend this year’s CPAC,” Mr. Schlapp concludes.
