Speech Topics

Safety at Home
Five years before the tragic events of September 11th, Speaker Gingrich felt an urgent need to protect the American people from a terrorist attack. As Speaker, he helped create the Hart/Rudman Commission study on how to do just that. After leaving the Speaker’s office, he joined the Commission. While on the Commission, he proposed the establishment of a Homeland Security agency, resulting from the startling evidence presented by the Commission that proved to be uncannily accurate. Now more than ever, the United States is faced with a pressing need to protect citizens at home. Gingrich discusses what the establishment of the Homeland Security Department means to citizens while exploring privacy issues, increased military visibility in vulnerable areas, and how individuals and companies can protect themselves. He also explains the necessity for intergovernmental agencies to communicate intelligence and why terrorist attacks on American soil are a reality we must all face.

Saving Lives & Saving Money: Transforming Healthcare in the 21st Century
During this presentation based on his book, Saving Lives & Saving Money, Speaker Newt Gingrich discusses a modern healthcare system of the future, with the core values of being patient centered, knowledge intense, and innovation rich. More than addressing the numerous ongoing debates such as medical malpractice reform, rising costs in healthcare and prescription drugs, and Medicare reform, Newt Gingrich provides to his audiences what every individual and company needs to know about the future of healthcare. He will present a thorough roadmap using market principles and available technology to describe the transformation of health and healthcare into a 21st Century system that will save lives and save money.

Living in the Age of Transformation
Throughout his public life as a legislator, Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Newt Gingrich worked on the behalf of ordinary citizens by moving the power out of Washington and returning it to the American people. Now, by addressing audiences around the globe, he empowers citizens of every nation to respond to the unique challenges and opportunities presented by the Information Age and global marketplace. Drawing from both his academic and public life, Gingrich will discuss his study of: the natural world, the biological revolution's impact on health, the state of information systems, the affect of mass communications, the infrastructure and implementation of international finance, the benefits of lean manufacturing, the challenge of military, terrorist and international crime threats, and, of course, American politics.
