The Boy Scouts Want to Hear From You

Details

On May 23rd the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) will make the decision whether to remain the organization that we all know and love or morph into something homosexual activists want it to become.

Homosexual activists and their allies want BSA to lift their ban on homosexual leaders and members.  Some corporations are withholding funds from the Scouts, others threaten to do the same and many United Way chapters are refusing to donate to the Scouts. Homosexual groups have indicated lifting the national ban and allowing each individual BSA troop to make its own policy does not go far enough — they want all troops to be required to allow open homosexual leaders and members.

Scout Executive Board members, Jim Turley (CEO of Ernst & Young) and Randall Stephenson (CEO of AT&T) , are working on the inside to try to force the Scouts to change their policy.

BSA has indicated they want to hear from you  Our understanding is that your local council executive and at least one local citizen will represent your community by voting for or against a resolution to change the current policy.
