Federal Hate Crimes Legislation Update2.)
Kathleen Sebelius Nomination – Vote in Senate Finance Committee3.)
Did You Know That You are a Terrorist?4.)
TEA Party Update – mark July 4th on your calendars!1.)
The newest federal hate crimes law is scheduled for a vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee on April 22nd. This would give “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” the same federal protection as race. Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) and Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL) have reintroduced the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009 (H.R. 1913). During debate in last session’s attempt to get this bill passed, Rep. Artur Davis, who supported the bill, admitted that a minister could be charged with the hate crime of incitement for preaching that homosexuality is a sin, if a congregant later committed a crime against a homosexual. This new bill is the exact language as the previous version. Senator Arlen Specter is the Ranking Republican member of this committee.2.)
Pro-abortion Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius is President Obama’s choice to head the Department of Health and Human Services. Governor Sebelius has a 20-year pro-abortion history. She has received campaign contributions from abortionist George Tiller and opposed almost every piece of legislation that would restrict his abortion business. Remember Tiller supports abortion up to the day of birth, has an on-site Nazi-like crematorium where the babies’ bodies are burned and ‘baptizes’ aborted babies if the parents request it. In addition there was that little matter of unpaid income taxes on the part of the governor. Questions are being raised, but is there enough concern?3.)

1.)
Contact Senator Specter and ask him to vote ‘no’ on H.R. 1913 – the hate crimes bill – in the Senate Judiciary Committee. Click here for a list of all members of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Click here for contact information for Senator Specter.2.)
Even as the Senate Finance Committee is beginning to raise questions about Governor Sebelius’ integrity, a vote is scheduled for Tuesday, April 21st. Neither of our PA Senators are members of this committee. So, please call Senators Specter and Casey and ask them to vote ‘no’ on pro-abortion Kansas Governor Sebelius for Secretary of Health and Human Services if her nomination reaches the floor of the Senate.3.)
Contact the White House and ask the President whether he believes supporters of life and the traditional family are terrorists. You can leave a comment at 202-456-1111 or use the webform at http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
