How to Submit an Event to InsiderOnline’s Conservative Calendar

InsiderOnline welcomes submissions to its Conservative Calendar. Please note: InsiderOnline’s editors will review all submissions, and posting is at the discretion of the editors. The editors may also edit submissions for space and style. The editors cannot post events that promote a political party or candidate, or are intended to aid or hinder the passage of any bill before Congress.

The Conservative Calendar is a service to the conservative public policy community. It features events that seek to educate about public policy issues that limit government, expand individual freedom, advance a strong national defense, and promote traditional values; as well as events for conservatives to meet, network, and socialize.
