#Politics #PatrioticPeachy @Interior Charles Laudner Named Executive Director of President Trump’s Interagency Task Force for Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes

U.S. Secretary of the Interior David L. Bernhardt, as chair of President Donald J. Trump’s Interagency Task Force for Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes (Interagency Task Force), announced the designation of Charles “Chuck” Laudner as the Executive Director of the Task Force.

As the Executive Director, Mr. Laudner will be responsible for coordinating the day-to-day activities of the Interagency Task Force.

“I greatly appreciate that Chuck Laudner agreed to serve as Executive Director,” said Secretary Bernhardt. “When establishing the Interagency Task Force on July 3, 2020, President Trump recognized that ‘America owes its present greatness to its past sacrifices,’ and that ‘statues are silent teachers in solid form of stone and metal.’ Chuck’s stewardship will be critical to ensure we accomplish the mission.”

“I am thrilled to serve as the Executive Director of the Interagency Task Force,” said Executive Director Laudner. “Like the President, I recognize that our statutes and monuments ‘call forth gratitude for the accomplishments and sacrifices of our exceptional fellow citizens who, despite their flaws, placed their virtues, their talents, and their lives in the service of our Nation.’”

Mr. Laudner is a native of Rockford, Iowa. He has served in the National Park Service (NPS) as Senior Advisor to the Director for Legislative and Congressional Affairs and is currently serving as Assistant Director for Legislative and Congressional Affairs. Mr. Laudner has been with the NPS since February 2018.

As a member of the NPS leadership team, Mr. Laudner has worked to place numerous sites on the African American Civil Rights Network including the designation of the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home and most recently the John Hope Franklin Reconciliation Park to recognize the historical and national significance of the tragic Tulsa Race Massacre.

As project manager, Mr. Laudner was instrumental in implementing the Presidential proclamation to designate Camp Nelson a national monument.

President Trump, through the issuance of the Executive Order on Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes, amongst other items, directed the Interagency Task Force to submit a report to the President that proposes options for the creation of a National Garden of American Heroes, including potential locations for the site, within 60 days of the issuance.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
