On edit, it IS a sister group to Heritage Foundation. So, Pence is either helping or at least aware of what they are up to.

WASHINGTON The Heritage Foundation announced today that former Vice President Mike Pence will join the organization as a distinguished visiting fellow.
Over the course of the past four years, our team at Heritage has worked closely with members of the Trump administration on a host of policy accomplishments, said Heritage President Kay C. James. Thats why I am excited Vice President Mike Pence will join forces with Heritage to ensure we continue to advance conservative principles and policy solutions. His allegiance to the Constitution and commitment to advancing a conservative policy agenda make him an outstanding fit for The Heritage Foundation.
Three decades ago, it was The Heritage Foundations influence that inspired Pence to help create a think tank in his home state of Indiana. After coming to Washington as a congressman and later as vice president, Pence frequently collaborated with Heritage and will now continue to do so as a distinguished visiting fellow.
The Heritage Foundation is a flagship of the conservative movement and I am profoundly honored to join them as a distinguished visiting fellow to advance conservative policies that will benefit every American, Pence said. The Heritage Foundation helped shape my conservative philosophy for decades and played a pivotal role advancing conservative policies throughout the Trump Administration. I look forward to rolling up my sleeves and working with the all-star team at Heritage as we continue to take the case for a strong national defense, free markets and traditional values to policymakers across the Nation and to every American who cherishes our Heritage of Freedom.
