Welcome back to a new season of Givers, Doers, & Thinkers! 

To kick off the sixth season, Jeremy sits down with Jeremy Tedesco to discuss how we might better protect viewpoint diversity, free speech, and religious freedom in the workplace. 

Jeremy Tedesco is senior counsel and senior vice president of corporate engagement for Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF).  Jeremy has litigated First Amendment cases at the highest levels and has been part of legal teams arguing major suits involving religious freedom before the U.S. Supreme Court. He is also the founder of ADF’s Center for Conscience Initiatives, where he led efforts to protect individuals from government-coerced speech. Jeremy’s writing has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and USA Today, among other places, and he can be seen or heard on Fox News, CNN, PBS, NPR, and other leading networks.

Jeremy Tedesco sheds light on the perils of concentrated power, particularly within private companies. He reveals how the private sector is using its influence to undermine our cherished freedoms. From de-banking to viewpoint discrimination, Jeremy outlines the strategies to combat these issues, including the groundbreaking Viewpoint Diversity Score Business Index pioneered by ADF. Discover its real-time effects on major corporations like JPMorgan Chase and what this could mean for the future of corporate America.
