Family Research Council President Tony Perkins issued a statement on June 8, 2023, following the death of Dr. M. G. “Pat” Robertson. Robertson was known as the founder and chairman of The Christian Broadcasting Network and also served as founder, chancellor, and CEO of Regent University. He died at the age of 93.
Perkins said: “I am grateful for the vision and courage of Pat Robertson. My first formal introduction into the world of government and political action was in the wake of his run for president and the creation of the Christian Coalition. It was a shaping experience to serve as chairman of the coalition in Baton Rouge many years ago. Pat’s vision and legacy as a man of God and a man of action will live on and continue to inspire.”
