Under Donald Trump, the Caucus shifted its emphasis to loyalty to Trump and Politico began to describe it as "more populist and nationalist, but less bound by policy principles"
Today, it is known for its embrace of confrontation and controversy, and battling with former Speaker John Boehber.

Impact
Assessing Effectiveness
The Freedom Caucus has been extremely effective in realizing and promoting policy goals due to the way their policy resonates with their constituency. The Caucus' target audience is very similar to former President Trump - white, lower-class voters without a college education in rural areas, especially in Southern states. The party structure has also been extremely effective as seen by its growth to the State Freedom Movement (explained further on the (Legacy Page).and the Freedom Fund. It's structure is unconventional with no official website, reported list of members, majority rule, closed-door meetings, and seeking grassroots input.
Success
In Winning Elections
In the 2022 election. the House Freedom Caucus Fund was successful in electing candidates with 100% of candidates seeking re-election and 62.5% of endorsed candidates winning

Role Today
The Future
If other factions in the Democrat and Republican parties adopt this Caucus' existance as a voting bloc, the Freedom Caucus may be the beginning of a return of coalition voting
In the House, the Freedom Caucus utilizes bloc voting to block crucial legislation, such as the recent Debt Limit Bill to force negotiations surrounding their key issues
Outside Congress, the Freedom Caucus has expanded into the State Freedom Caucus Network (promotion of state Freedom parties) and the House Freedom Fund (election funds for grassroot conservative canidates)
Nevertheless, their aversion to compromise and right-wing policies hints at rising gridlock and extremism
