==Name dispute== In the late 1990s, Benham abandoned the name of ''Operation Rescue'', and changed the name of his organization to ''Operation Save America''. Once Newman's organization (the former [[Operation Rescue West]] or California Operation Rescue) began to grow in prominence and use the name ''Operation Rescue'', Benham also began using the name ''Operation Rescue''. After a feud with Newman, and after Benham was named in a lawsuit from the United States Department of Justice, Benham officially changed the name of Operation Rescue National to ''Operation Save America''.<ref name=mhrn /> Meanwhile, Benham broadened the scope of Operation Save America to include criticism of [[homosexuality]], [[pornography]], and [[Islam]], and formed alliances with other Christian conservative groups and the [[Constitution Party (United States)|Constitution Party]].<ref>Standing By His Conviction, ''Washington Post'' March 18, 1998</ref> In 2002, Benham moved Operation Save America's headquarters from their longtime home in [[Dallas, Texas]] to Concord.
