Vice President Vance Speaks Out on Behalf of Men, Promises Help with Public Policy

WASHINGTON / February 26, 2025 – The recent 2024 elections brought greater awareness of the problems and concerns of men and boys. In response, Vice President JD Vance spoke out at the CPAC conference held last week in Maryland in support of placing a priority on helping men.

Vance stated, to strong audience applause:

“I think that our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge, you should try to cast aside your family, you should try to suppress what makes you a young man in the first place, and I think that my message to young men is don’t allow this broken culture to send you a message that you’re a bad person because you’re a man, because you like to tell a joke, because you like to have a beer with your friends, or because you’re competitive.” (1)

Vance concluded with this promise: “we’re going to help with our public policy to make it possible to do that.”

Other supportive comments from both Republican and Democrat lawmakers include:

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) in a recent state of the state address stated, “I will be directing my entire administration to begin implementing targeted solutions to uplift men and boys.” (2)
Senator Josh Hawley, Missouri (R): “Of all the things this country needs—stronger borders, better-paying jobs, some basic safety on our streets—above all, America needs stronger men….For America, stronger, better men are the solution.” (3)
Rep. Frederica Wilson 24th District of Florida (D): “The U.S. Commission on the Social Status of Black Men and Boys (CSSBMB) is the culmination of my work as U.S. Congresswoman to empower our Black men and boys.” (4)

Sensing a dramatic cultural shift, SAVE recently established a new “Men’s Equality Network,” consisting of groups that want to address the crisis of men and boys in America. (5) The Men’s Equality Network has already issued several press releases calling for the elimination of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs that openly discriminate against men. (6)

Studies show men have fallen behind women in 12 major areas such as health, education, homelessness, and more. (7)

SAVE calls on Democrat and Republican lawmakers to establish a Commission on Men and Boys, similar to the one currently being debated in Washington State: HB 1266 and SB 5446. (8)

SAVE – Stop Abusive and Violent Environments – is a 501(c)3 organization working to assure due process, fairness, and equal opportunities for men.
