Washington Policy Center (WPC), is proud to announce Dr. Ben Carson, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary and renowned neurosurgeon will be a keynote speaker at our Annual Dinner Event which takes place at the Davenport Grand in Spokane on October 15, 2021. Dr. Carson was catapulted into national prominence as a surgeon in 1997 when he and an international team accomplished the first completely successful separation of type two vertical craniopagus twins in South Africa.

One more building block to fit into their foundation of one world order if these pass. What times we live in! Looking forward to a time when the only “King” or “Ruler” is God Almighty our loving creator!
