CPAC and UANI Launch CPAC for Iranians in Exile Website

(New York, NY) — The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), in partnership with United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI), launch CPAC for Iranians in Exile and its new online platform at CPAC.org/Iranians. This initiative, spearheaded by CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp and UANI CEO Ambassador Mark D. Wallace, will offer a platform for the global Iranian diaspora to engage with each other and senior U.S. policymakers. As Iran’s people continue their brave struggle against a repressive regime, CPAC for Iranians in Exile aims to provide a powerful stage for their voices — bringing together activists, thinkers, artists, technocrats, and policymakers in a show of solidarity for Iran’s democratic future.

The Guiding Principles of CPAC for Iranians in Exile: 

1. To provide a platform of discussion and engagement under one roof for the diverse diaspora to debate and engage with civility and respect;
2. To provide a platform of discussion and engagement with U.S. policymakers and Trump administration figures;
3. To provide a platform for all Iranian peoples that are opposed to the Ayatollah’s regime and that stand for Iran’s free and democratic future unshackled from perverse Islamist ideology;
4. To provide a platform that respects the great history of Iran, its borders, and its territorial integrity;
5. To provide a platform that respects in absolute terms that it will be the Iranian people – as it is their fundamental right – to choose their future, their government, and leadership after the demise of the Ayatollah’s despotic rule; and
6. CPAC for Iranians in Exile will be guided by a principle of absolute respect for all those diverse groups within the Iranian diaspora, ensuring their treatment with dignity and civility.

Looking Ahead: A Historic Gathering in Washington, D.C. 

CPAC for Iranians in Exile will host its inaugural conference later this year in Washington, D.C., featuring participation from senior U.S. policymakers and influential voices from across the diaspora.

A New Chapter for the Future of Iran 

“CPAC for Iranians in Exile is about giving voice to the voiceless,” said CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp. “We are honored to stand with Iranians in exile as they fight to reclaim their heritage, their faith, and their freedom from one of the world’s most oppressive regimes.” 

“The Iranian people have endured 46 years of tyranny,” added UANI CEO Ambassador Mark D. Wallace. “This initiative is a rallying point — a place where they can be heard and engage meaningfully with U.S. policymakers. It’s time their voices shaped the global conversation.”
