Former Vice President Mike Pence told a group of Young Americans for Freedom that Critical Race Theory is “state sponsored racism.”
Appearing at the Iowa Memorial Union Monday night in an event billed as “How to Save America from the Woke Left,” the Daily Iowan reports Pence criticized the Biden Administration for expanding unemployment benefits, scrapping the Donald Trump-created 1776 Commission, and moving too fast on their agenda.
Pence told the crowd of about 450 people that 2022 will see Republicans winning back Congress and statehouses across the country, and said, “come 2024, we’re going to win back America.”
A small group of students protested Pence’s visit at Hubbard Park, and one attendee was escorted out after challenging Pence over his rhetoric on increasing the debt ceiling.
