Trouble brewing for the establishment

From Campaign For Liberty:

The Washington, D.C. media is warning that 2018 “spells trouble for the GOP establishment.”

Big Government U.S. Senator Bob Corker (R-TN) has already announced his retirement.

More retirements are rumored to be in the works.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has been severely wounded politically after watching his handpicked establishment candidate go down to defeat in Alabama on Tuesday.

But the media still doesn’t get why the American people are angry?

The last time GOP leaders delivered an offensive domestic policy victory to its base was the tax cuts of 2003. Many voters can’t even remember one!

But every week, it seems the GOP establishment breaks a new promise.

I get the anger. And I share it!

The truth is, we should be angry.

We were promised our newly elected President and Congress would repeal ObamaCare “root and branch” -- not cook up one failed substitute after another.

We were promised Audit the Fed -- not more of the same as the Federal Reserve steers us off another financial cliff.

We were promised REAL, fundamental tax reform -- but Congress is looking to pass a plan that raises just as many taxes as it cuts!

We were promised fiscal responsibility and spending cuts -- not spending hikes that have sent our national debt soaring over $20 TRILLION.

We were promised things would be different this time!

We were told The Swamp’s days were numbered!

But the “Do-Nothing Congress” headed by scaredy-cat House Speaker Ryan and Senate Majority Leader McConnell has so far delivered. . .

Virtually nothing.

No matter how you slice it, 2016 was a LOUD-AND-CLEAR message from the American people that we’re FED UP with the status quo in Washington, D.C.!

Yet, The Swamp apparently thinks its “safe” to go back to their old games -- and you and I won’t notice!

It’s up to you and me to prove them WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.

That’s why I’m counting on you to sign your “KEEP YOUR PROMISES” Grassroots Directive to your Congressman and U.S. Senators TODAY!

And if you’d like, you can take advantage of the extra space I’ve left for you to write the message of your choosing.

I know it’s probably frustrating you and I even have to do this. . .

But it’s absolutely critical you voice your frustration today.

If we don’t, we could miss one of the best opportunities we’ve had in years to bring our country back from the brink.

But the good news is, after the entire political world was turned upside down in 2016, politicians in BOTH parties are still incredibly wary of the power of grassroots patriots like you.

They don’t trust national media “experts” who’ve done nothing but constantly make fools of themselves -- or party big-wigs who’ve accomplished nothing but record-low approval ratings.

They know that continuing to anger good folks like you could spell their political demise. . .

It’s time to show them you and I mean business.

It’s time to show them they can either KEEP THEIR PROMISES or find new jobs.

That’s exactly the message your Grassroots Directive is designed to deliver.

As you’ll see, it urges Members of Congress to KEEP THEIR PROMISES TO:

>>>REPEAL ObamaCare! For seven years, we’ve been told ObamaCare would be gone if the American people would give Republicans control of Congress. But instead they keep offering one compromise after another! This is flat-out UNNACCEPTABLE!

>>>Audit the Fed. You and I have spent the last several months gathering House cosponsors and even forcing a House hearing. Now, is the time for Speaker Ryan to bring the bill to the floor and pass it onto the Senate!

>>>Cut taxes. You should decide how the money you earn is spent. Not some bureaucrat in Washington, D.C. With tax reform on the move, many in BOTH parties are already attempting to water it down.

>>>Cut spending. The last debt ceiling deal with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer only punted the next fight until the end of the year. Instead of raising the debt ceiling again, it’s time for Congress to finally CUT SPENDING!

And as I mentioned, if you’d like, you can take advantage of the extra space I’ve left for you to write the message of your choosing.

The action of good folks like you can be THE difference if I can generate enough of a tidal wave of support.

But with all of these battles -- and the brewing fight over the possible expiration of FISA’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL Section 702, which allows all sorts of domestic surveillance on American citizens -- I hope you’ll consider a generous contribution today.

The more resources I can raise, the LOUDER our message will be in Washington, D.C.

There’s absolutely nothing I want more right now than to BREAK through the Big Government bubble and light a grassroots fire under this Congress.

But I’m counting on you to help Campaign for Liberty make it happen.

So in addition to signing your “KEEP YOUR PROMISES” Grassroots Directive, please be generous.

Even if all you can do right now is $10 or $20, it would make a tremendous difference.

But if you can afford more -- like $50, $100, $250, or $500 -- please give as much as you can.

The only way you and I don’t miss the opportunities we have in front of us today are if Members of Congress understand their days are numbered if they don’t deliver.

So please sign your “KEEP YOUR PROMISES” Grassroots Directive and agree to your most generous contribution at once!

For Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

P.S. The “Do-Nothing Congress” headed by scaredy-cat House Speaker Ryan and Senate Majority Leader McConnell has so far delivered . . . virtually nothing.

That’s why I’m counting on you to sign your “KEEP YOUR PROMISES” Grassroots Directive to your Congressman and U.S. Senators and agree to your most generous contribution of $10, $20, $50, $100, $250, or $500 TODAY!

And if you’d like, you can take advantage of the extra space I’ve left for you on your Grassroots Directive to write the message of your choosing.

Make politicians keep their promises

From Campaign For Liberty:

Washington, D.C. is still reeling from the results of last Thursday and Friday when RyanCare -- AKA "ObamaCare-lite" -- was pulled from the House floor due to lack of support and grassroots anger.

Now, all the politicians we heard promise us they were going to repeal ObamaCare seem strangely happy that they didn't get the job done.

Instead of learning the lesson that they must listen to the grassroots patriots who elected them, House Speaker Paul Ryan states, "We're going to be living with ObamaCare for the foreseeable future."

And the White House is openly claiming they want to start wheeling and dealing with Big Government statists like Chuck Schumer (D-NY)! And Schumer has indicated he is eager to deal with the Republicans if that is what it takes to save ObamaCare.

I'm more worried than ever about what's coming next.

That's why I'm counting on you to sign your "NO MORE BETRAYALS" petition to your U.S. Representative and Senators today.

As you'll see, these petitions tell your elected officials in no uncertain terms that you expect them to DELIVER on the promises to repeal ObamaCare that so many made on the campaign trail in 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2016.

In December of 2015, congressional Republicans passed an ObamaCare repeal bill -- using the reconciliation process -- through both houses of Congress and placed it on President Obama's desk.

President Obama, of course, vetoed that bill.

But it was meant to show the American people how serious Congress was about ending ObamaCare.

At virtually any moment congressional leaders decide to, they can pass this same bill again -- and relegate ObamaCare to the trash-heap of history.

But they won't do it unless you and I force them to act and FAST.

You see, I'm afraid they're perfectly happy that ObamaCare remains on the books today. Too many senators and representatives seem willing to abandon the effort to repeal ObamaCare and replace it with healthcare freedom where you're in charge and the free market is restored.

And the more time that passes, the more likely it is the American people will simply "forget" they've broken their promises.

That's why your continued action is so critical.

First, please sign your "NO MORE BETRAYALS" petition to your U.S. Representative and Senators.

Second, if you possibly can, please agree to your most generous contribution of $250, $100 or $50.

Or, if that's too much, please agree to $25 or even $10.

With your help, Campaign for Liberty is going to keep the heat on Congress for the repeal of ObamaCare we were promised!

But we're counting on your continued support and action.

For liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

P.S. Instead of learning the lesson that they must listen to the grassroots patriots who elected them, House Speaker Paul Ryan states, "We're going to be living with ObamaCare for the foreseeable future."

And the White House is openly claiming they want to start wheeling and dealing with Big Government statists like Chuck Schumer (D-NY)!

That's why I'm counting on you to sign your "NO MORE BETRAYALS" petition to your U.S. Representative and Senators today and agree to your most generous contribution of $250, $100, $50, $25 or even $10 right away!

Let's tell Congressman Paul Ryan that we do want to talk about marijuana reform

Congressman Paul Ryan
It seems that one of the many things that are taboo for discussion in the House is marijuana reform. Why is that? Because Speaker of the House Congressman Paul Ryan doesn't want to talk about it. On the other hand the American people do want to talk about marijuana reform. In fact they want more than mere words from Washington. They want action. This last election confirmed that. With the voters from a state deciding for themselves while ignoring the federal government. There are more states that day by day decide to put it to the people so the people can decide what they want. Obama even admitted it a few days after this last election. It's only a matter of time before it becomes a federal issue so let's contact the Speaker and tell him that We The American People want marijuana legalization and that we want the House to take this issue up. The more of us they hear from the better.

Congressional drug prohibitionist arrested for possession of cocaine

WASHINGTON — In September, Rep. Trey Radel voted for Republican legislation that would allow states to make food stamp recipients pee in cups to prove they’re not on drugs. In October, police busted the Florida Republican on a charge of cocaine possession.

“It’s really interesting it came on the heels of Republicans voting on everyone who had access to food stamps get drug tested,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told BuzzFeed Tuesday. “It’s like, what?”

The House over the summer approved an amendment by Rep. Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) that would let states drug test people on food stamps. The amendment passed by voice vote, meaning members’ individual yeas and nays were not recorded. Radel later voted in favor of a broader food stamps bill that included Hudson’s measure.

In support of his drug testing legislation, Hudson cited the many state legislatures around the country that had considered similar requirements for other means-tested programs in recent years.

“This is a clear and obvious problem in our communities as nearly 30 states have introduced legislation to drug test for welfare programs,” Hudson said. “We have a moral obligation to equip the states with the tools they need to discourage the use of illegal drugs.”
Most of the state legislation was authored by Republicans. Oftentimes, state Democrats responded by suggesting lawmakers should be subject to tests as well. If the government’s going to make sure recipients of taxpayer-funded benefits are clean, the argument went, then why not also make sure the recipients of taxpayer salaries are clean, too?

In June, Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) made that very suggestion when he questioned why recipients of crop insurance and other government benefits weren’t also targeted for drug tests like people on food stamps.

“Why don’t we drug test all the members of Congress here,” McGovern said shortly before the drug-testing measure passed. “Force everybody to go urinate in a cup or see whether or not anybody is on drugs? Maybe that will explain why some of these amendments are coming up or why some of the votes are turning out the way they are.”

The fate of the food stamp drug testing provision is in the hands of a House-Senate conference committee hashing out differences between food stamp and farm legislation that passed the two chambers. It’s got a chance. Last year, Congress passed a law to let states drug-test some unemployment insurance recipients.

Radel apologized Tuesday for his cocaine bust and said he’d seek treatment.
“I struggle with the disease of alcoholism, and this led to an extremely irresponsible choice,” he said.

Source

Fuck him. Throw him to the wolves. I'm tired of hypocritical assholes like him. He comes off so self righteous only to a be a sinner himself and the worst kind. Like Lamont Hill said this asshole had no problem taking food out of the mouths of you and your children. He has no problem denying you food because you used medical marijuana to save your life and now that you've come up positive for drugs you are cut off from food stamps. A program you need to feed yourself and your family. This prick asks for love and compassion when it comes to him but he has no problem imposing draconian measures on the rest of us. This clown needs punishment. I say we contact our Congressperson and the Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and let them know of our disgust and that We The People are not going to take it anymore.

Congress wants to tax the internet

From Ron Paul at Campaign For Liberty:

You and I fought long and hard...

We thought it was defeated...

But now it's back from the dead -- and it's coming for YOU!

No, I am not talking zombies or vampires.

I'm talking about the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate!

For three years, Campaign for Liberty members have stopped every attempt to pass legislation imposing new taxes and regulations on the Internet...

But, like deranged mad scientists, the Big Government, big business cabal in Congress will not let the Monster stay dead.

They are lurking in the shadows, waiting for the lame-duck session of Congress where they plan to ram the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate into law.

Taking cues from a Scooby Doo villain, they've disguised the Monster as a "compromise" that protects small businesses and consumers.

But when our gang rips that mask off, all versions of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate still:

***Raise prices on online goods

***Force businesses to comply with out-of-state tax laws

***Impose new regulations on the Internet that could prevent development of the next Amazon or eBay

This is a treat for the special interests...

But a trick for the American people!

I'm confident you and I can slay the Internet Sales Tax Mandate monster once again.

But we need to act now!

So please sign your "No Lame-Duck Internet Sales Tax Mandate" petition to your Representative and Senators today.

Right now, members of Congress are explicitly sensitive to the views of the people...

So if they see anti-Internet Sales Tax petitions coming into their offices in the days before the election, they are more likely to stand with us in opposition to taxing the Internet.

It is vital we get as many Representatives and Senators as possible on record in opposition to the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate before Congress returns for the lame-duck session.

I don't want to scare you, but...

The fact is, the powerful forces behind the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate are closer than ever to victory.

You see, earlier this year, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell -- the ringleader of the Internet Sales Tax Mandate in the Senate -- promised they would vote on the bill in 2016.

Senator McConnell has yet to fulfill his promise, most likely because he did not want to force vulnerable Republican Senators to choose between the people and the special interests before the election.

But in the lame-duck, he will think he is safe to move this bill since the people are burned out on politics and too busy with the holidays to pay attention to Congress.

So we must let Senator McConnell and his colleagues know that we are not going to back down -- instead, we will keep the heat on the Senate through the lame-duck!

But the Senate is not our only, or even our main, threat.

House Speaker Paul Ryan has recently endorsed the version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate that has been proposed by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Robert Goodlatte.

Ryan and Goodlatte claim their plan is "fair" to small businesses, even though -- unlike the Senate plan -- this bill does not include a small business exemption from the mandate.

And even if the Ryan-Goodlate plan is fair for business, it's not fair for consumers!

Like every other version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate, the Ryan-Goodlate plan raises prices on your online purchases.

But unlike other versions, the Ryan-Goodlatte plan doesn't even exempt small businesses from the mandate!

The Ryan-Goodlatte plan also imposes a complex and costly tax collection scheme on online commerce.

Proponents of the Ryan-Goodlate plan claim that these costs will be borne by state governments.

But you and I know that state-level bureaucrats and politicians will find a way to make sure the costs are "passed along" to consumers and taxpayers.

The Ryan-Goodlatte plan rewards tax-hungry governors and state legislators by giving them a fresh source of revenue, allowing them to continue their fiscally irresponsible ways.

This will only make the inevitable day of reckoning all the more painful.

Now, Capitol Hill sources have told me that Goodlatte is working with House supporters of the Senate version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate to find a "compromise" version of the legislation.

And you know that President Obama will be doing all he can to help broker such a compromise.

He would love to add "signed the National Internet Sales Tax Law" to his list of "accomplishments."

The good news is, Paul Ryan has not made any public pledges to vote on the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate.

If he knows that we will not accept any phony "compromise" that burdens the Internet with taxes and regulations, he will likely back down on his plan.

So please sign your "No Lame-Duck Internet Sales Tax" petition to your Representative and Senators asking them to publicly pledge to oppose any version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate in the lame-duck session.

And please make a generous contribution of $15, $10, or $5 to help Campaign for Liberty mobilize more Americans in opposition to the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate.

With your support, we will be able to contact thousands more anti-tax Americans in the weeks before the elections and keep the heat on Congress during the lame-duck session.

If funds permit, Campaign for Liberty will also run ads targeting wavering politicians across the Internet and social media.

In order to defeat the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate, you and I will need to keep the pressure on Congress from now until the end of the lame-duck.

But in order to do that, C4L will need resources we simply do not have.

While Campaign for Liberty's financial position has improved over the last few months, we still do not have the resources to even plan, much less run, the type of intensive, month-long program it will take to guarantee our success over the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate.

So if you can, please make a generous contribution of $15.

I know that is a lot, but with Paul Ryan now pushing a version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate, and with Mitch McConnell's pledge to act on it, the threat that a tax-free Internet could become a thing of the past is closer than ever.

So if $15 is too much, is there any way I can count on you for a special contribution of $10?

If we raise the resources this month, Campaign for Liberty can ramp up its efforts to get Representatives on record opposing the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate by running hard-hitting Internet ads before the election.

So if $10 is too much, could you make a contribution of $5?

And whatever you contribute, please make sure you sign your "No Lame-Duck Internet Sales Tax Mandate" petition to your Representative and Senators.

In Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

P.S. Like mad scientists in a bad horror movie, special interests and their Congressional allies are reviving the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate for passage in the lame-duck session.

Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell promised Senate action, and House Speaker Paul Ryan is now pushing a new version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate.

If they get their way, online commerce could soon be crippled with taxes and regulations.

That's why you and I must turn up the heat on Congress starting now -- when they are listening especially closely to grassroots activists.

Please sign your "No Lame-Duck Internet Sales Tax Mandate" petition to your Representative and Senators demanding they pledge to oppose any legislation containing any version of the National Internet Sales Tax Mandate in the lame-duck session.

Put pressure on the House to hold an up and down vote on Audit The Fed

From Campaign For Liberty:

Eight years ago this month, thousands of pro-liberty Americans gathered in Minnesota for Campaign for Liberty's Rally for the Republic.

These Americans, many of whom were new to the Liberty Movement, traveled across the country to celebrate all that had been accomplished during Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign.

And more importantly, they began to plan the next stages of the Liberty r3VOLution.

Shortly after the rally, the housing bubble burst, the stock market crashed, and Wall Street -- aided in part by the Federal Reserve -- rushed to Congress demanding a bailout.

Congressional leadership, the administration, and the special interests all expected the bailout to pass Congress with little or no meaningful debate or dissent.

But then Campaign for Liberty mobilized pro-liberty Americans to flood Congress with phone calls opposing the bailout.

And what was supposed to be a slam dunk turned into one of the most continuous battles I witnessed in my years on Capitol Hill as Dr. Paul's legislative director.

Although the bailout ultimately passed, Campaign for Liberty showed the Congressional leadership and whole political class that the r3VOLution was not going away.

Not only that, public outrage over the Federal Reserve's responsibility for the maker meltdown and its role in the bank bailout led more Americans than ever to favor a full audit of the Federal Reserve.

So, shortly after the fight over the bailouts, Campaign for Liberty launched an effort to move Congress to respond to the growing anti-Fed sentiment by passing Ron Paul's Audit the Fed bill.

As a result of the efforts of Campaign for Liberty supporters like you, Audit the Fed twice passed the House by overwhelming (and increasing) majorities.

Today, this critical bill is just six votes away from breaking Harry Reid's filibuster, passing the Senate, and being signed into law!

The next step in our efforts is to have another House vote, thus sending the bill back to the Senate where we can force the Senate to vote right before going home to campaign.

But even though House Speaker Paul Ryan has supported the bill in the past, he has yet to commit to holding a roll-call vote.

So please, call Paul Ryan today at 202-225-0600 and sign your petition to tell him to schedule a vote on Audit the Fed (HR 24) immediately!

Audit the Fed may be needed now more than ever.

Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen has recently stated that the Fed needs to start thinking "outside the box" about how to respond to the next financial crisis.

Among the "outside the box" ideas Yellen wants the Fed to consider are increasing the Fed's purchase of stocks, bonds, and other private assets and "modifying" the Fed's inflation targets.

In other words, increase the Fed's power over the economy by bailing out big banks, large financial firms, and other large corporations, while eroding your standard of living via inflation.

The American people deserve to know the full truth about how the Fed evaluates the economy and what plans it is making when the next crash comes.

Including any and all "arrangements" the Fed has made with foreign central banks, as well as plans to purchase stock in private companies, bail out the big banks, and ramp up the printing presses.

If we can force the House leadership to hold a vote on, and pass, Audit the Fed within the next several weeks, we can then force the Senate to hold a vote right before going home to campaign.

This will present fence-sitting Senators with a tough choice...

... Either stand with the nearly 75% of Americans who support Audit the Fed...

... Or stand with the Fed and its powerful allies who are desperate to keep you from knowing the facts about America's monetary policy.

A House and Senate vote this month will also put Hillary Clinton and her allies in a difficult position.

You see, Secretary Clinton has yet to take a public position on Audit the Fed.

And major high-profile votes on the bill will force her to take a public position on the bill and answer some uncomfortable questions about her relationship with Wall Street special interests.

House and Senate votes on Audit the Fed this month will keep Audit the Fed at the forefront of the public debate.

And will set us up to make more progress -- and even pass the bill -- as soon as next year, no matter who wins the White House!

While time is short, it is still possible to have a vote on Audit the Fed this month.

Getting Speaker Ryan to agree to hold a vote is the key.

So please call Paul Ryan today and sign your petition to tell him to hold a vote on Audit the Fed ASAP!

You can reach Speaker Ryan at 202-255-6000.

The only reason Audit the Fed has come as far as it has is because Campaign for Liberty -- with your support -- was able to mobilize Americans to put the heat on Congress.

And you and I did not let up until their members cosponsored and until the leadership scheduled roll-call votes on the bill.

You see, most politicians want to avoid controversial votes that force them to choose between their constituents and powerful special interests.

After all, taking a stand means they will make someone mad at them, and making someone mad means they might lose a campaign contribution, or a valued volunteer, or an influential endorsement...

... And if they make enough people mad, they may even lose re-election!

So they try to avoid taking a stand by telling their constituents they are "studying" the issues or "following its progress."

Even worse, they try to buy us off by promising some compromise that appears to increase Fed transparency, but in reality protects the Fed from a full audit.

The only way to make Congress act is to not just put the pressure on, but to keep it on and make them know that we will not settle for any phony compromises.

And for eight years, Campaign for Liberty members have done just that.

Campaign for Liberty's principled activists are the only reason that Audit the Fed has gone from a fringe issue to the center of American politics.

For years, Ron Paul warned about the dangers of allowing monetary policy to be controlled by secretive central banks.

But until 2008, few in Congress (although many in America) joined him in working to open the Fed's books.

What changed?

It was not just that grassroots Americans started listening to Dr. Paul.

It was also because Campaign for Liberty encouraged Americans to let their elected Representatives know that they were listening and they expected the rest of D.C. to listen to Ron Paul!

Campaign for Liberty members like you are the reason we are closer than ever to passing Audit the Fed, but we need your continued help.

So please, call Paul Ryan today and sign your petition to tell him to schedule a vote on Audit the Fed as soon as possible.

You can reach Speaker Ryan at 202-225-0600.

And if you can, please chip in $50, $30, $20, or $10 to help Campaign for Liberty‘s efforts to pass Audit the Fed.

In Liberty,

Norm Singleton

P.S. Thanks to the years of hard work by Campaign for Liberty members like you, we are just seven votes shy of passing Audit the Fed in the Senate.

... And we may be able to pass the bill if we can force the Senate to hold another vote this month...

And force the Senate to either stand with the 75% of pro-Audit the Fed Americans, or stand with the powerful special interests that benefit from Fed secrecy right before going home to campaign.

While time is tight, it is still more than possible to force votes on Audit the Fed in both the House and the Senate if we turn up the heat, and keep it up, until we have achieved our goal.

The first step is passing Audit the Fed through the House.

So please call House Speaker Paul Ryan at 202-225-0600 and sign your petition to tell him to schedule a vote on Audit the Fed now.

And if you can, please sign the petition and chip in $50, $30, $20 or even $10 to help Campaign for Liberty mobilize more Americans to pressure Congress to pass Audit the Fed.

I tried to contact Congressman Ryan's office by phone but his voicemail box is full so on top of signing the petition you can contact him here as well.

Force Congress to hold an up and down vote concerning the National Right To Work Act

From The National Right To Work Committee:

Now is the time to expose Big Labor's allies in Congress.

With the 2016 Elections right around the corner, the time has never been better to put every member of Congress on record for or against compulsory unionism with a roll-call vote on the National Right to Work Act (S. 391/H.R. 612).

And thanks to you, the pressure is building. Already, 154 members of Congress have cosponsored the Right to Work Act.

But there is more to do!

That's why it's vital you sign your petition, urging Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and your Congressman and Senators to cosponsor and seek roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act TODAY.

As you read this, 11 million Americans are forced to pay union dues or face losing their jobs.

And nearly 80% of Americans agree that's just plain wrong.

A National Right to Work law would free hardworking Americans from the chains of forced-unionism -- and stop the union bosses' forced-dues gravy train.

This federally provided special privilege has not only allowed union bosses across the country to enjoy fat-cat limousine lifestyles, but it has also shored up piles of cash for Big Labor to funnel into the campaign coffers of their handpicked politicians -- nearly two BILLION dollars -- every election year.

Keeping their allegiance to Big Labor secret, throngs of politicians head back to Washington again and again to protect and expand the union bosses' forced-dues privileges.

And the cycle will not end . . .

Unless you and I expose them!

The good news is, that's exactly what a vote on the National Right to Work Act would do.

The fact is, union bosses know a vote on the Right to Work Act could mean real trouble for their favorite Big Labor politicians this year.

So to keep their pet politicians off the record on Right to Work, Big Labor is determined to stop any and all public debate on the National Right to Work Act.

But you and I have the one thing the union bosses don't -- massive support from the American people.

History has shown time and time again that when there is a high-profile vote on forced-unionism, politicians who kowtow to Big Labor go down in flames at the ballot box.

So putting Big Labor's allies on record could be the final nail in their political coffins on Election Day.

But your IMMEDIATE action is critical to forcing the vote.

So please sign your petition, urging Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan, any your Congressman and Senators to cosponsor and seek roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act today.

You and I both know, in politics, nothing moves unless it's pushed.

And since Big Labor's allies will do just about anything to stay off the record, it's vital you and I push HARD.

It's up to you and me to hold Congress' feet to the fire.

So please sign your petition IMMEDIATELY to:

*** Your Congressman and Senators, demanding they cosponsor the National Right to Work Act immediately;

*** Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, insisting he schedule a floor vote on this crucial legislation; and

*** Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, urging him to bring the National Right to Work Act to the House floor for a vote at once.

And if at all possible, please donate a generous contribution of $50, $25, $10 or 10 to help your Committee mobilize tens of thousands of Right to Work supporters across the country to pressure Congress to hold votes on the National Right to Work Act NOW, so politicians can be held accountable.

In this crucial election year, it is up to you and me to put Congress on record for or against forcing workers to pay union dues and fees just to earn a living.

So please act TODAY!

Sincerely,

Mark Mix
President, National Right to Work

P.S. Time and time, again history has shown that when politicians are forced to take a stand on the compulsory unionism issue, forced-dues partisans go down in flames at the ballot box.

Now, with the 2016 Elections fast approaching, it's vital every member of Congress is put on the record with roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act.

So, to turn up the heat on Congress to hold roll-call votes before the crucial November Elections, please sign the petition and consider your most generous contribution TODAY.

Rainbow mafia exploits Orlando tragedy to push Gay Bill of Special Rights

From Public Advocate:

My heart and prayers go out to the victims and family members of the tragic Orlando terrorist attack.

I've spent the last 48 hours praying for our safety and the security of all of our nation's citizens.

No American should ever have to face the threat of a radical Islamist.

But while the nation paused for prayer and reflection, the radical Homosexual Lobby sprung into action.

That's because they've launched a full-scale assault to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights (H.R. 3185).

This may be the most reprehensible action of the radical Homosexual Lobby since they put my family's life in danger by publishing my home address and encouraging violence against me.

They're simply ruthless in their pursuit to pass their entire agenda.

It's sickening to witness the radical Homosexual Lobby use these victims to attack anyone standing in the way of their radical plans.

That's why I hope you sign your petition telling your Senators and Congressman that you are against the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Even as the on-scene investigation was being conducted, the radical Homosexual Lobby's allies in the Leftist news media already were already calling for passage of the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

This comes on the heels of the radical Homosexual Lobby's successful efforts to sneak a narrow version of the Gay Bill of Special Rights, related to federal contractors, into an appropriations bill.

Thanks to 43 Republican Congressmen betraying the Family, the radical Homosexual Lobby now has an opportunity to pass the entire Gay Bill of Special Rights.

And recently, Suzan DelBene (D-WA), called on her fellow House Judiciary Members to bring the bill before the committee for full passage!

So along with your signed petition, please help Public Advocate fight back with a generous donation of $20, $15, $10 or whatever you can afford right away.

It's clear to see the Homosexual Lobby shows no respect for the very LGBT community they claim to represent.

You and I both know the Gay Bill of Special Rights will do nothing to protect anyone from terrorism.

The radical Homosexual Lobby has already passed Thought Control legislation and so-called "Hate Crime" laws that legally assume the lives of homosexuals are more valuable than yours.

That didn't stop Omar Marteen from slaughtering 50 members of the LGBT community.

But the radical Homosexual Lobby doesn't care about facts.

They know full well that passing the Gay Bill of Special Rights has nothing to do with Sunday's terrorist attack.

The ramifications of this bill are dangerous and virtually never-ending.

Forcing Christian daycares to hire transsexuals won't make them safer.

And requiring churches to hire homosexual pastors or face legal threats will never stop a terrorist.

None of these realities will stop them from passing the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

That's why, along with your signed petition, I'm counting on a contribution of $20 or $15.

At this point, only a tidal wave of opposition will block this bill.

So if that's too much, please consider at least $10 or $5 to help Public Advocate alert thousands of pro-Family Americans about this dangerous bill.

Our simple but effective tactics rely on Internet banners, mail and phone calls.

It's how we've been able to defeat this bill every time it rears its ugly head.

But it still requires me to ask for additional funding.

I know you understand how real the threat of passing this bill is.

The Leftist media and Homosexual Lobby will continue to shame any Christian who opposes their radical Agenda.

Already, multiple news stories have been published attacking pro-Family Congressmen for simply praying and offering condolences to loved ones of the victims in Orlando.

They've even somehow blamed Christians for the terrorist attack by a Jihadist!

According to them, you can't support Traditional Values and mourn for the loss of human life.

I know that's not true.

And I know Public Advocate supporters like you have prayed for our nation in the wake of Orlando's terrorist attack.

Prayers guide us through this and many terrible events in our lives and I certainly ask you to pray that God helps us defeat the Homosexual Lobby's radical Agenda.

With prayers from Public Advocate supporters like you, I know we are unstoppable.

Prayers guide me so that I am working to do God's will.

And through prayer and inspiration from supporters like you who pray, Public Advocate knows how to overcome and defend against those who would destroy Godly values.

You and I both know that weak-kneed politicians act on pressure from voters.

That's why it's crucial Public Advocate is able to fully fund our programs to defeat the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Please be sure to make your most generous contribution after you sign your petition.

As if the current atmosphere wasn't enough to make for an uphill battle, I'm afraid weak-kneed Republican leaders in Congress may be even tougher to beat.

As Election Day gets closer, the radical Homosexual Lobby will bribe and outright lie to politicians with false promises of delivering thousands of voters to the polls for them.

That's why we can't trust any "promise" to defeat this bill until after the November election.

You see, Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) is one of many Republicans who have co-sponsored the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

And we know House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) will support the bill.

After all, he voted for the Gay Bill of Special Rights in 2007.

That's why I must turn up the pressure on Congressional leadership and your elected members of Congress.

So please, after you've signed your petition, please consider your most generous donation of $20, $15, $10 or $5 right away.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States

P.S. Please continue to pray for the victims and families of the Orlando terrorist attack.

Instead of taking time to pause and heal as a nation, the radical Homosexual Lobby is using the attack to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

It's crucial you sign your petition telling your Senators and Congressman that you are against the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

And if you can, please prayerfully consider digging deep and making your most generous contribution of $20 or $15 to help Public Advocate alert thousands of pro-Family Americans of this dangerous bill.

At this point, only a tidal wave of opposition will block this bill.

If I don't respond with opposition from thousands of united pro-Family Americans, I'm afraid the Homosexual Lobby will finally pass the bill in Congress this year.

So if that's too much right now, please consider at least $10 or $5 right away.

Big IPS's are going to fight court's ruling in favor of Net Neutrality

From Fight For The Future:

The top appeals court in the US just decided in favor of the net neutrality rules we fought so hard to win. Net neutrality is the law of the land and one of the cable industry’s best shots at overturning the rules has come up empty.

Net neutrality, or the open Internet, says that no company can slow down or block websites as a basic first amendment rule of the Internet. Now, the courts just decided that the strongest possible way to protect that rule—the worst-case scenario envisioned by Comcast—is completely and fully legal!

Being told this win was impossible is a sting we can still feel today. But after we worked together to submit a record breaking 4 million comments to the FCC, camped out at their headquarters, called for Title II when we had little political cover, and brought together thousands of companies to take action with us, we got the largest win against entrenched interests this decade.

But this isn’t over. Partisan and heavily-funded attacks have been piling up. Make a monthly donation so we can build the campaigns that reach millions more people and definitively undermine their plans.

Can’t donate right now?

Take action to make sure the FCC doesn't allow new ISP schemes that can undermine net neutrality.

Fight for the Future signed on as intervenors in the USTelecom vs FCC case, so it's especially nice to win this one. This watershed victory reminds us we can break down the status quo and win big if we stay tenacious. (Here's a little refresher on how we won.)

But—surprise!—this fight is not over.

There is still a giant loophole in the net neutrality rules that we need the FCC to fix. If we don’t, net neutrality could be undermined by “sponsored data” programs and the Internet could become less open than if we never won the rules in the first place.

Then there’s Congress. Earlier today, House Speaker Paul Ryan released his legislative blueprint that includes plans to weaken the FCC’s authority to enforce net neutrality.

And last but not least, the broadband industry has already said they are going to take this all the way to the Supreme Court.

Clearly, we need to keep fighting. But we need your help.

Take action to make sure the FCC doesn't create fast lanes by allowing “sponsored data” programs.

Or...

Donate today so we can keep this fight alive until net neutrality is secured for good.

Want to see how this fight was won—we made this timeline of the fight so you can do that!

Thanks for all you have done to make this net neutrality win possible so far!

Put pressure on Congressman Paul Ryan to Audit The Fed

From Campaign For Liberty:

It’s time to MAKE ‘EM PAY.

On January 12, 2016, members of BOTH parties in the United States Senate resorted to a filibuster to stop my son, Senator Rand Paul, from passing my Audit the Fed bill.

7 U.S. Senators who are facing reelection in 2016 chose to stand with secretive Fed banksters instead of the nearly 75% of Americans who believe this rogue institution should be audited and exposed.

I know these Senators are betting that the memory of this vote will be overtaken by the presidential race.

They’re betting you and I will just give up and go home -- even after falling only 7 votes short.

But with your help, I’m about to show them they’re WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.

In just a moment, I'll give you a link to find your special, personalized petitions to Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and your U.S. Representative insisting on House passage of Audit the Fed.

You see, if you and I can follow up forcing a Senate vote on Audit the Fed with passage through the U.S. House for the third Congress in a row, it will dramatically ramp up pressure on the U.S. Senate...

...Maybe just enough to make the 7 vote difference next time around.

So please help me send a LOUD-AND-CLEAR message to every member of Congress:

“GET THE JOB DONE ON AUDIT THE FED -- OR RISK FACING THE MUSIC AT THE BALLOT BOX.”

The fact is, if you and I are going to maintain any semblance of the liberty and prosperity that’s long been every American’s birthright, sending this message is simply not optional.

The Federal Reserve’s disastrous print-now, ask-questions-later policies are destroying the American economy.

Our middle class is being gutted before our eyes.

Poverty is on the rise.

While Washington D.C.’s well-connected corporate fat cats and the Fed’s hedge fund billionaire buddies continue to rake it in like never before, the American median household income is still far short of where it was -- even at the end of the last century.

And while our federal government continues to release “official” unemployment rates in the single digits, they’re not even bothering to count those who have given up looking for work!

Now, studies show 37% of able-bodied Americans aren’t even in the labor force!

It’s no accident. It’s all due to Washington, D.C.’s out-of-control spending on outrageous boondoggles like ObamaCare, which has left our nation $19 TRILLION in debt.

But if you scratch the surface, you’ll see the Federal Reserve -- which prints money out of thin air to pay the bills when sky-high taxation and borrowing don’t make ends meet -- is the true linchpin of Big Government.

That’s why it’s never been more important that you and I force passage of Audit the Fed and finally show the American people the Federal Reserve system leads to:

*** Constant economic crises. Centrally planned interest rates and money manipulation lead to one economic bubble after another -- just as we saw in the housing crisis and as we’re seeing now in the U.S. stock market;

*** The destruction of the middle class. As the cost of everyday necessities soar, those who are NOT on the government dole are forced to make do with less as the value of their money sinks;

*** Currency destruction. History shows us that riots, violence, and full-scale police states can result when people finally realize our money isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on and REFUSE to accept it.

In fact, a past limited audit authorized by the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act revealed that the Federal Reserve committed over $16 trillion to foreign central banks and politically-connected U.S. companies from 2007-2010.

That’s more than four times the annual budget of the United States!

Imagine what a full audit would reveal about the Fed’s “special” relationships and secret deals with Big Banks, Wall Street firms, large corporations, and foreign central banks!

Please sign your petition to Speaker Paul Ryan and your U.S. Representative demanding they Audit the Fed right away.

The good news is, your action is proven to make a direct difference. Grassroots muscle from patriots like you from all over the country put the Fed issue on the political map.

It’s the reason Campaign for Liberty got this critical legislation passed through the U.S. House with HUGE bipartisan majorities during the past two Congresses.

It's the reason we were able to overcome an all-out Federal Reserve public relations blitz and force Audit the Fed on the U.S. Senate's calendar for a public, roll call vote.

It's the reason we were able to get 53 votes -- even with three senators failing to show up!

Make no mistake. You and I are getting results.

BIG results.

Each and every one of these milestones was a major, historic victory.

Today, we’re closer than ever to finally EXPOSING the Federal Reserve and striking at the very heart of the Washington, D.C. Big Government Leviathan.

But what you and I do right now may be the most important.

With the presidential race raging, keeping Audit the Fed at the forefront of the American political debate is crucial.

Of course, after this U.S. Senate vote, I know many members of Congress – in both the U.S. House and Senate – think they’re done with Audit the Fed.

I want to show them that if they REFUSE to pass my bill this Congress, they could face a buzz saw at the ballot box from the nearly 75% of Americans who believe the Federal Reserve should be audited.

That means generating a massive grassroots outpouring of support from good folks like you, insisting on House passage of Audit the Fed NOW!

So please sign your petition to Speaker Paul Ryan and your U.S. Representative demanding they Audit the Fed right away.

If we can pass Audit the Fed through the U.S. House again under the new Speaker, Paul Ryan, it will only increase the pressure on the U.S. Senate.

And with the November elections rapidly approaching, every U.S. Senator who dared to vote against Audit the Fed will understand they must change and vote to EXPOSE the Fed -- or they’ll risk paying the ultimate political price.

That’s why I’m counting on your IMMEDIATE action.

Your generosity today is also critical to helping C4L turn our focus to the U.S. House with everything from hard-hitting mail, email, and social media to Internet ads, a phone mobilization campaign, and even TV ads (if I can raise the resources).

The good news is, in an election year like this one, politicians listen a little better than they do at other times. So everything you and I do right now could have enormous impact.

Remember, your action is PROVEN to make a difference. So what you decide to do (or not do) right now will have an enormous impact on this battle.

I hope you’ll go all in.

I hope that, in addition to signing your petitions, you’ll agree to a generous contribution of $50 right away.

I know that’s probably a big stretch.

But every dollar is so crucial to finally winning this battle.

Even if President Obama ultimately vetoes, that’s still a major win for you and me. With the Audit the Fed issue at the forefront of the presidential race, any candidate who says they won’t sign Audit the Fed would be toast!

Of course, if $50 is just too much, please agree to $25 or at least $10 TODAY.

I know I've asked a lot from you. The truth is, words can’t get close to the appreciation I truly feel for all you’ve done for liberty.

But this is a critical moment. Please come through for me by signing your petition to Speaker Paul Ryan and your U.S. Representative to Audit the Fed, and then make your most generous contribution of $50, $25, or at least $10.

Thank you for everything!

For Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

P.S. The statists mounted a filibuster to derail passage of Audit the Fed in the Senate. But if you and I can pass Audit the Fed through the U.S. House, it will dramatically increase the pressure on the bad apples in the Senate to vote to pass Audit the Fed.

Please sign your petition to Speaker Paul Ryan and your U.S. Representative demanding they vote on Audit the Fed.

And after you’ve signed, please chip in your most generous contribution of $50, $25, or even $10 IMMEDIATELY to help Campaign for Liberty mobilize like-minded Americans.

Gay Bill of Special Rights threatens Religious Liberty

From Public Advocate:

"Historic."

"Comprehensive."

That's how the pro-homosexual news media is portraying the newest Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Unless Public Advocate supporters take immediate action, it will go down in history as the end of Religious Liberty in America.

That's because Republicans are already betraying Traditional Values to support the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

You see, homosexual Congressman David Cicilline (D-RI) and Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) have introduced the most aggressive version of this bill I've ever seen.

Their bills, H.R. 3185 and S. 1858, will create a special employment status for homosexuals and transsexuals.

Cicilline specifically declared it was time to demand special rights for homosexuals -- with no exceptions.

And now Republican Senator Mark Kirk (R-IL) is being praised by the radical Homosexual Lobby for betraying pro-Family Americans.

That's because Sen. Kirk has pledged his alliance with President Obama in lobbying for the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Just last month, I predicted the radical Homosexual Lobby would target vulnerable Republicans running for re-election.

These radicals are desperate to put the Gay Bill of Special Rights on President Obama's desk in his last year in office.

I've been fighting their tactics for over 35 years as President of Public Advocate.

Now that Obama has entered his final year as president, they will use every dirty trick in their playbook.

With Sen. Kirk's betrayal making him the first Republican co-sponsoring the newest Gay Bill of Special Rights...

...I'm afraid other Republicans will also seek praise from the pro-homosexual news media while soliciting millions in campaign donations from the Hollywood elites.

That's why Public Advocate must mobilize every pro-Family American to fight back against Obama and the Homosexual Lobby's radical Agenda.

I'm counting on you to sign your petition against the Gay Bill of Special Rights, along with a generous contribution of $15, $10 or $5 right away.

Our sacred right to Religious Liberty is hanging by a thread.

This latest Gay Bill of Special Rights would force every business -- even faith-based businesses -- to comply with the radical Homosexual Agenda.

These bills are usually filed under the guise of employee discrimination protection or the misnamed "Equality Act."

But don't let that fool you. The ramifications of this bill are dangerous and virtually never-ending.

Christian daycares could be forced to hire transsexuals.

Churches could be mandated to hire homosexual pastors or face legal threats.

Clearly, this bill is designed to permanently end Religious Liberty.

That's why I need you to sign your petition defending Religious Liberty, along with a generous contribution of $15, $10 or $5 right away.

I lose sleep at night thinking about our nation -- founded on the principles of Religious Liberty -- living under such a law.

Unfortunately, 212 members of Congress already signed on as co-sponsors of the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

That's because the Gay Bill of Special Rights has been the cornerstone of the Homosexual Agenda since the 1980's.

It first passed the House (H.R. 3685) in 2007, thanks in part to current House Speaker Paul Ryan's proud Republican support.

And it passed again, this time in the Senate (S. 815), in 2013.

I've always made sure Public Advocate is on the frontlines battling any version of the Gay Bill of Special Rights whenever it rears its ugly head in Congress.

Against all odds, we've successfully made sure these bills never reached the President's desk in the past.

But it's taken a tremendous effort to defend Religious Liberty in every state from the endless assaults by the radical Homosexual Lobby since the Supreme Court ushered in homosexual "marriage."

We have a small window of opportunity before this bill reaches Barack Obama's desk.

Please sign your petition right now and tell your Senators and Congressman that you are against the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Now that President Obama is making history by becoming the first sitting president to endorse the Gay Bill of Special Rights, our back is up against the wall.

And Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has already made statements showing signs of surrender on various issues in the Homosexual Lobby's radical Agenda.

Now, Speaker Paul Ryan has even more power to persuade other Republicans to join him in his support for the Gay Bill of Special Rights than when he voted for it in 2007.

Ryan and the radical Homosexual Lobby will tell pro-Family politicians that they need to support this bill to retain their office.

The truth is, after Americans witnessed pro-Family politicians sell out and support the Gay Bill of Special Rights in 2007, they felt disenchanted.

This allowed the radical Homosexual Lobby to succeed in electing President Obama as their leader.

That's why I'm counting on you to defend religious Liberty right away.

When I flood Washington, D.C. with signed petitions from you and other pro-Family Americans, they will have no choice but to listen to us or pay a high price, either in their primary races or this November.

And only through your generous donation will I be able to compete with the radical homosexual tidal wave of special interest cash.

I promise to be a steward of your generous gift by using my 35 years of experience in defeating the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

But please send your generous donation of $15, $10 or $5 as soon as possible.

The Homosexual Lobby marches through the halls of Congress every day.

They twist arms and make campaign promises to politicians who will cave to their radical Agenda.

It's important Public Advocate launches our proven grassroots program to mobilize and recruit pro-Family opposition to the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

With your help, we can show the politicians seeking to destroy Religious Liberty there is a tidal wave of pro-Family Americans who oppose the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

And we can block any other pro-Family politician from joining Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. Mark Kirk in betraying Religious Liberty.

So please, sign your petition against the Gay Bill of Special Rights, along with a generous contribution of $15, $10 or $5 right away.

We can't afford to lose any ground in this battle.

Thank you and God Bless.

For the Family,


HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States

P.S. This election year has set the stage for an all-out showdown in Congress to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Obama's recent comments in the pro-homosexual magazine "Out" proves he will double-down on the radical Homosexual Lobby's efforts to make sure it reaches his desk before his final year is over.

And with House Speaker Paul Ryan's history of supporting the Gay Bill of Special Rights, along with that of other Republicans like Senator Mark Kirk, I'm afraid they may be successful this year!

That's why I need your help in stopping the radical Homosexual Lobby from lying to -- and outright buying -- vulnerable pro-Family politicians seeking re-election to pass this bill.

Please sign your petition against the Gay Bill of Special Rights right away and please give your generous donation of $15, $10 or $5. Thank you so much.

Gays don't deserve special rights

From Public Advocate:

Ally. Hero. Icon.

Those are the words pro-Homosexual "Out" magazine used to describe President Obama on their cover photo of him.

The anti-Family magazine named him their "Ally of the Year" after he became the first sitting president to endorse homosexual "marriage".

Obama took a victory lap in his interview taking credit for every pro-homosexual "achievement" from repealing "don't ask, don't tell" to nominating the first openly gay military branch leader.

The homosexual magazine thanked him for nominating the Homosexual Lobby's two picks for U.S. Supreme Court justices during his tenure.

Theirs were the deciding votes to strike down state laws defending Real Marriage earlier this spring.

Obama didn't waste any more time celebrating past achievements with the magazine.

Shortly after his pro-Homosexual glamour shoot and interview, he called on Congress to immediately pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

And the radical Homosexual Lobby wasted no time in pressuring Congressmen to pass the dangerous Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Passage of this bill would virtually destroy Religious Liberty.

I'm worried.

Obama is about to enter the final year of his presidency.

He's seeking to spike the ball and give the radical Homosexual Lobby their crown jewel -- signing the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

The radical Homosexual Lobby is already stuffing their coffers with large donations from homosexual billionaires like Tim Gill and their celebrity accomplices.

I'm afraid House Speaker Paul Ryan -- who already voted for the Gay Bill of Special Rights in the past -- and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will be all too eager to compromise in an election year.

The Homosexual Lobby will promise them expanded majorities in exchange for passing the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

We can't count on weak-kneed Republican leadership to stop the dangerous effects of the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Employers would be forced to hire and prevented from firing anyone who claims to be a member of this new protected class of homosexuals, bisexuals, and even so called "transsexuals."

Churches would be forced to hire homosexual youth pastors or face lawsuits for discrimination.

Schools would not be able to fire teachers who suddenly decide cross-dressing better "expresses" their "gender identity."

The Gay Bill of Special Rights seeks to create a protected class of citizens based on "sexual orientation" and destroy our right to Religious Liberty in the process.

That's why I need you to sign your "Don't Turn Your Back on Religious Liberty" petition against the Gay Bill of Special Rights right away.

And after you sign your petition, please chip in $10 or $25 to help Public Advocate fight back against the radical Homosexual Lobby's enormous cash flow.

Since 1981, I've managed to ward off the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

But with Obama's last term and GOP leadership eager to push "bipartisanship" over principles, I'm afraid the threat is greater than ever.

So please, protect Religious Liberty from the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Sign your "Don't Turn Your Back on Religious Liberty" petition right away.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States

P.S. After his glamour shoot for the pro-Homosexual "Out" magazine, Obama pledged to double-down his efforts to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights in his last year in office.

House Speaker Paul Ryan, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and every member of Congress need to know pro-Family Americans are watching their actions closely.

Please sign your "Don't Turn Your Back on Religious Liberty" petition and chip in $10 or $25 right away to help Public Advocate defeat the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

The gay bill of speical rights is going to the House

From Public Advocate:

What I've warned you about for years is finally here...

A life or death battle that will determine whether:

A) The pro-Family movement answers the call, rises to the occasion, and defends our nation against the violations in the Gay Bill of Special Rights (H.R. 3185 & S. 1858).

OR...

B) The Homosexual Lobby succeeds and a privileged status is granted to every homosexual, bisexual and "transgendered" in the nation.

You and I have been fighting against this bill for years, but the stakes are higher after the Gay Bill of Special Rights passed the Senate for the first time ever last session.

The Supreme Court ruling against Real Marriage has set the stage for an all-out showdown in Congress.

And this is the perfect time for the Homosexual Lobby to twist arms in Congress using momentum from their recent Supreme Court victory.

By the time you get this email, insiders say a vote on the Gay Bill of Special Rights could already be in the works.

That's because the pro-Homosexual Lobby Rep. Paul Ryan is the new Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.

And his past vote for the Gay Bill of Special Rights is just the opportunity the radical Homosexual Lobby is hoping for.

This means I need your help right now, before it's too late.

If Public Advocate is going to rally pro-Family opposition to this crown jewel of the Homosexual Agenda, you and I must hit the ground after the midterm elections on a war footing.

While you and I have defeated this bill in the past, the Homosexual Lobby has now recruited the largest number of sponsors this bill has ever had.

That's why I've officially launched your Public Advocate into overdrive.

Leftist and pro-homosexual news media attack Public Advocate's every move and that proves it is a close battle with a lot for us to lose by complacency.

This battle will be like none before. You and I must pull out all the stops.

Oppose the GayBill of Special Rights

Please sign your petition to your Representatives in Congress demanding they defeat the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Your signed petition is the first step in defeating this dangerous legislation, so it is vital you sign it at once.

We must prove to Congress the overwhelming majority of Americans will not tolerate this attempt to force homosexuality into every aspect of our lives.

But there's more.

As you know, the Homosexual Lobby hoards vast treasuries they can unleash at a moment's notice to drown out our voices.

And the amount of money they've spent fighting for legal and legislative victories proves the opposition is stronger than ever.

That's why I need you to please give an emergency donation as well as sign your petition.

Your donation will allow me to execute step two in my plan to defeat the Gay Bill of Special Rights:

Alerting hundreds of thousands, hopefully millions of pro-Family Americans to what's going on in Washington right now.

With our entire movement mobilized, our voices CAN rise above the noise of the radical Homosexual Lobby.

But we have to act quickly.

They could launch their latest campaign to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights at any moment!

By acting now, I can put Public Advocate's 34 years of experience behind defeating this immoral bill.

Over the decades, you and I have killed it over and over again. But this time we are facing a well-oiled machine that's learning from its recent and prestigious victories.

But if you and I fight harder and faster than ever before, we may still be able to stop the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

I'm just worried it's too late.

Please sign your Petition right now and tell your Senators and Congressman that you are against the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Oppose the GayBill of Special Rights

Passage of the Gay Bill of Special Rights would create a protected class of citizens based on "sexual orientation".

Employers would be forced to hire, and prevented from firing anyone who claims to be a member of this new protected class of homosexuals, bisexuals, and even so-called "transsexuals".

Churches would be forced to hire homosexual youth pastors or face lawsuits for discrimination.

Schools would not be able to fire teachers who suddenly decide crossdressing better "expresses" their "gender identity".

This has been keeping me up for days.

We have a small window of opportunity before this bill reaches Barack Obama's desk.

They have 170 co-sponsors in the House and almost 40 co-sponsors in the Senate!

Fortunately, many in Congress who are currently supporting this bill, are only doing so while it is kept quiet and in the shadows.

That's why it is absolutely critical I am able to expose this bill to the light of day.

Your signed petition and emergency contribution are crucial to doing just that.

When I flood Washington D.C. with signed petitions from you and other pro-Family Americans, they will have no choice but to listen to us or pay a high price next election.

And only through your generous donation will I be able to compete with the radical homosexual tidal wave of special interest cash.

I am giving all I have to this new onslaught -- my money, my time and sometimes even my health.

Please send your generous donation of $15, $10 or $5 as soon as possible.

Your donation of $15 will allow me to alert thousands of pro-Family Americans.

With their voices added to ours, Congress will have no choice but to listen and stop pandering to the radical homosexuals -- or face outraged pro-Family voters next election.

I still believe you and I can stop the radical homosexuals and their allies in the coming lame duck Congress.

But if we are going to win this fight, we must act now.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States

P.S. The Supreme Court ruling against Real Marriage has set the stage for an all-out showdown in Congress to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Cut up Congress' credit card

From Campaign For Liberty:

I'm not going to beat around the bush.

I'm counting on your IMMEDIATE action to help turn up the heat on Congress to stop America's soaring national debt.

Not thirty years from now. Not twenty. Not ten.

But NOW.

You see, outgoing speaker John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have cut a dirty "deal" with President Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid to increase domestic and defense spending by $80 billion dollars!

On top of that, this deal "suspends" the debt limit until March 2017, gifting the Big Spenders in DC an unlimited increase to Congress' credit card through the 2016 election.

And what's worse, Boehner's doing this for his heir apparent, Paul Ryan, who's desperately hoping this deal passes.

"I didn't want [Paul Ryan] to walk into a dirty barn of you know what," Boehner quipped. "I've done my best to try to clean it up."

A "clean up" requiring a spending increase of nearly $100 billion and a suspension of the debt limit represents everything wrong with Washington, D.C.

While Paul Ryan has publically claimed he had nothing to do with this deal, at least one member of Congress has suggested Ryan was in cahoots with leadership!

If you and I don't turn up the heat on your representative and senators right now, I'm afraid the Obama-Ryan-Boehner regime will get the last laugh.

And with the vote on this massive spending increase scheduled in the House for tomorrow, its critical you act right away.

The good news is DC-based press are reporting that House leadership might not have the votes to pass it.

Meaning if you and I really put pressure on the House we could kill this dirty deal once and for all.

So please sign your "Cut Congress' Credit Card" Fax Petition IMMEDIATELY!

As you'll see, your petition urges your representative and senators to REJECT Congress' dirty deal with President Obama and work to balance the federal budget immediately.

. . . Not to make half-hearted promises of future cuts or fiscal responsibility . . .

. . . Not promote a plan based on another smoky backroom deal.

I mean cutting up our federal government's credit cards and finally forcing Congress to live within its means.

That's why it's vital you sign your "Cut Congress' Credit Card" Fax Petition right away!

The same people expected to vote for this MASSIVE increase in spending are the same hacks voting for Paul Ryan as Speaker.

If you and I don't send a clear message to Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and their lackeys to restore fiscal sanity, you and I can expect the same old routine through 2017.

In 2015, our federal government brought in record revenue. $3.2 TRILLION in fact.

$3.2 TRILLION was $300 billion more than the amount of our entire federal budget as recently as 2008!

Returning to 2008's spending levels would hardly be a radical change.

But it would force President Obama and members of Congress to end the spending spree that has left our country nearly $19 TRILLION in debt.

So please sign your "Cut Congress' Credit Card" Fax Petition IMMEDIATELY!

Hardworking families all across the country understand they have to live within their means.

They understand allowing credit card debt to build up month after month is a recipe for disaster.

It's NO different for our federal government.

I know President Obama, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan and the big spenders in Congress will tell you they can't be forced to live within their means.

They'll tell you not a dime of federal spending can be cut.

"The cupboard is bare!" as Nancy Pelosi famously exclaimed.

But just in the past year, you and I have learned:

*** $380,000 thousand to study the "freshman 15";

*** $100,000 for a flower show in Philadelphia;

*** $350,000 to study athletes in the zone;

*** $50,000 for the jazz group Soul Rebels to travel to Istanbul, Turkey for a jazz festival;

*** The Veteran's Administration spent $8 million on solar panels that were never turned on;

*** $350,000 for an Afghanistan cricket league;

*** $104 million for low-income housing subsidies on people who do not qualify as low income;

I could go on and on.

If we don't start cutting out this waste, what kind of future will we be leaving to our kids and grandkids?

One saddled with debt? Void of the freedom and opportunity that should be their birthright as American citizens?

All Congress has to do to finally balance our federal budget is . . .

NOTHING.

If your representative and senators just don't vote to suspend the debt limit, Congress can only spend what it takes in.

Will you help Campaign for Liberty turn up the heat on Congress to stop them from suspending the debt limit and increasing spending RIGHT NOW ?

I'm counting on you. After all, you and I are going up against the Obama administration's propaganda machine.

In 2013, the Obama administration resorted to throwing up barricades to prevent our heroic World War II veterans from visiting a memorial built to honor their blood and sacrifice!

And after that, President Obama sent seven security guards to the World War II memorial to keep our veterans out - two more than were present in Benghazi.

They're going to use the same kind of shenanigans again to try to trick the American people into thinking the world will collapse if even a single cent of federal spending is cut.

And they will no doubt be assisted by Boehner, Ryan, and other so-called "conservatives" who are eager to cut a deal putting spending on autopilot for two years.

But your help can make sure it won't work.

So won't you please sign your "Cut Congress' Credit Card" Fax Petition right away to cut up government's credit card?

And if you can,please agree to your most generous contribution of $40 at once!
Every dollar you give will help Campaign for Liberty reach more Americans about this critical fight.

Of course, if $40 is too much, please agree to $20 or at least $10 at once.

But your action today is critical because, the truth is, the big spenders in Congress - sadly many in BOTH parties - don't want to be forced to cut spending.

They'll resort to virtually anything to keep spending like there's no tomorrow.
Cutting up Congress' credit cards only means a balanced budget.

Not a government shutdown. Not a federal default on our debt. Not Social Security and Medicare being cut off. Not missed paychecks for our men and women in uniform .

Our government can still keep spending $3.2 TRILLION a year.

Seven years ago, it would have been more than enough to pay for the entire federal budget.

Those were hardly lean times for government by any means.

$3.2 TRILLION is enough "revenue" for Washington, D.C.

And $19 TRILLION is more than enough debt for you and me.

If you agree, please sign your "Cut Congress' Credit Cards" Fax Petition immediately.

And, if you can, please make your most generous contribution of $40 , $20 , or at least $10 TODAY!

In Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

As you'll see, your petition urges your representative and senators to REJECT Congress' dirty deal with President Obama and work to balance our federal budget immediately.

If Congress doesn't increase the debt limit, it will simply force Congress to live within its means.

But since you and I are going up against the Obama administration's propaganda machine, I must ask for your most generous contribution of $40 , $20 or at least $10 IMMEDIATELY.

The vote for Paul Ryan as Speaker of the House is coming down to the wire

From Public Advocate:

Eugene wanted me to update you on the Speaker's race today.

He needs you to call 202-224-3121 right away and urge your Congressman to vote against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

The pro-Homosexual Lobby Congressman is dangerously close to winning his bid for House Speaker.

That's why it's important you call your House Representative right away via the switchboard at 202-224-3121 and urge them to publicly oppose Paul Ryan.

Trust and Verify

From Freedom Works:

That's what Ronald Reagan said about negotiating with the Soviets and that's how the House Freedom Caucus negotiated with Paul Ryan.

It has been a busy couple of weeks. Patriots like you have worked overtime to fire John Boehner and prevent Kevin McCarthy, Boehner's right-hand-man, from rising to Speaker of the House.

This would not have happened without your vigilance. From January to September, our community took more than 200,000 actions to oust Boehner and over 11,000 in only 48 hours to keep McCarthy out of the job. It is a remarkable achievement and stands as a testament to the power that can be wielded by those of us who are armed only with our commitment to the principles we hold dear and our resolve to protect the America that we know and love.

It shouldn't be surprising that I've spent an incredible amount of time on the phone and in meetings trying to convince multiple conservative members to toss their hat in the ring and run to be Speaker. But, as you know, Paul Ryan emerged as a candidate. And after a meeting with the House Freedom Caucus, it looks as though he will be the next person to hold the gavel.

Without question, there is frustration emanating from conservatives across the country.

But ultimately this fight was about process, not about personalities.

The main goals of the House Freedom Caucus were:

•A return to regular order by allowing an open amendment process, passing appropriations bills, and ending Republican leadership's tendency to govern by crisis through constant Continuing Resolutions and debt ceiling debates that only serve to strengthen Obama's hand.

•To stop punishing conservative members by stalling their bills, stripping them from committees, and running outside campaigns to defeat them.

•To finally stand up to Obama, who, because of Republican leadership's inability to show any real courage, is fast becoming the most powerful lame duck president in history.

And they trust that Ryan will be a step towards these goals, but they haven't given up their tools to verify and remove Ryan if he turns out to be a clone of Boehner.

Just a few years ago, I could count the number of allies in the House on one hand. Today, we have over 40.

Our challenge is to support this group of freedom fighters and expand their ranks. It is not only a worthwhile cause but also an absolute necessity. They need reinforcements if we want to see more victories that humble the Washington establishment.

Only then will we truly be able to set the agenda.

Don't let Paul Ryan become Speaker of the House

From Public Advocate:

The pro-homosexual media is attacking me.

That's because Public Advocate's emergency grassroots program against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker has gone viral!

But I still need every last Public Advocate supporter to call 202-224-3121 again and urge their Congressman to vote against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

Even if you've already called, I need you to call again until your Congressman goes on the record against Ryan.

You see, I predicted two weeks ago the radical Homosexual Lobby would love for Paul Ryan to become Speaker.

His past support and his vote to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights (H.R. 3685) makes him the perfect "Trojan Horse" to pass their radical homosexual agenda.

Which is why I desperately need you to call 202-224-3121 again and urge your Congressman to vote against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

Public Advocate has caught the ire of the pro-homosexual media.

In fact, they're falsely accusing me of questioning Paul Ryan's marriage.

But that's nothing compared to the vile messages I've received from both homosexual activists and so-called "conservatives" in D.C.

They think they can bully and ridicule me into submission.

You and I both know they are wrong.

For over 34 years, I've had a target on my back as President of Public Advocate.

And not once have I caved to their tactics.

I hope you can do me a favor and call 202-224-3121 again and urge your Congressman to vote against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

And after you call, I hope you'll consider keeping our emergency grassroots program against Paul Ryan running by chipping in $10 or $25 right away.

It's an honor to have you by my side as I continue to fight for Traditional Values against any opponent.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States

P.S. Our emergency grassroots program to defeat Paul Ryan's bid for U.S. House Speaker has put Congress on notice.

But I still need you to call your Congressman right away at 202-224-3121 and urge them to publicly oppose and vote against pro-Homosexual Lobby Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

And please help Public Advocate immediately continue our emergency grassroots operation by chipping in $10 or $25 right away.

Tell your Representative to oppose the nomination of Paul Ryan for Speaker of the House

From Public Advocate:

Have you heard the terrifying news?

Congressman Paul Ryan confirmed he is running for U.S. House Speaker.

And he's already demanding pro-Family and grassroots conservatives in the House give up all their power to the Speaker's throne.

That's why I need you to call 202-224-3121 immediately and urge your Congressman to vote against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

You see, Paul Ryan co-sponsored and voted for the dangerous Gay Bill of Special Rights (H.R. 3685).

This bill is the crown jewel for the radical Homosexual Lobby.

If passed, it will shred the Constitution and enact special job rights for homosexuals.

Businesses may have to adopt hiring quotas to protect themselves from lawsuits.

Radical homosexuals will terrorize daycare centers, hospitals, churches and private schools.

And it will be virtually impossible to defend Traditional Values from the radical homosexual activists in America.

If Ryan is successful in his bid to be the next Speaker, I'm afraid he'll use the power of the position to sell out pro-Family Americans to the demands of homosexual activists.

That's why after you call 202-224-3121, I need you to keep Public Advocate's "Stop Paul Ryan" grassroots program running by chipping in $10 or $25 right away.

You see, my staff and I have been working relentlessly to pressure Congressmen to say no to Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

I authorized an aggressive grassroots campaign targeting Paul Ryan's own district and over 40 other key districts with Facebook, Drudge Report and Google Ads.

And it's having an immediate impact.

In South Carolina, Congressman Mick Mulvaney back-tracked from his initial praise of Paul Ryan after our ads and your phone calls targeted his district.

And pro-Family champions Raul Labrador (R-ID), Steve King (R-IA), and Thomas Massie (R-KY) have all spoken against Paul Ryan since Public Advocate launched our emergency program.

Steve King even said he expects Paul Ryan's nomination to be a "battle."

This is far from the coronation Paul Ryan was expecting.

But in order to continue this very effective program, I need to count on you to chip in $10 or $25 right away.

Your donation will immediately be put directly towards the cost of our targeted ads.

So after you call your Congressman at 202-224-3121 and urge them to oppose Paul Ryan, please give your most generous gift right away.

Time is of the essence.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States

P.S. The race to replace Speaker Boehner is heating up and now pro-Homosexual Lobby Paul Ryan is running.

Paul Ryan voted to pass the Gay Bill of Special Rights in 2007 and if he becomes the next Speaker, he'll have more power to pass it again.

Call your Congressman right away at 202-224-3121 and urge them to publicly oppose and vote against Paul Ryan's bid for Speaker.

And please help Public Advocate immediately continue our emergency grassroots operation by chipping in $10 or $25 right away.

Or you can email your Representative and tell them to oppose Paul Ryan for Speaker of the House.

Don't let Paul Ryan become Speaker of the House

From Public Advocate:

I still need you to call your House Representative right now and urge them to publicly oppose Congressman Paul Ryan's dangerous bid for House Speaker.

Please call 202-224-3121 right away to be connected to your Congressman.

Your call may be the difference in stopping the pro-Homosexual Lobby Paul Ryan from running for Speaker of the House.

So please call 202-224-3121 right away to be connected to your Congressman and urge them to publicly oppose Paul Ryan.

Even if you've already called before, I need you to call again until your Congressman goes on the record.

After you call your Congressman, please forward this email to three friends and family members and encourage them to do the same.

And/Or you can sign the petition to prevent Paul Ryan from becoming Speaker of the House.

Sign the petition to keep Paul Ryan from becoming Speaker of the House

From Public Advocate:

We're running out of time.

Congressman Paul Ryan is expected to announce his decision to run for U.S. House Speaker as early as Monday.

It's crucial for you to sign your emergency petition letting your Congressman know you oppose Ryan's dangerous potential run for Speaker right away.

That's because Paul Ryan co-sponsored and voted for the dangerous Gay Bill of Special Rights.

And if this is how he votes as a Congressman, imagine how he'll use the most powerful position in the House to make deals with the radical Homosexual Lobby?

That's why Public Advocate is leading the charge and encouraging pro-Family Americans to rise up so we can flood the halls of Congress with petitions urging they vote against Paul Ryan for Speaker.

My staff and I worked long hours to prepare ads on Google, Facebook and Drudge in 42 key districts opposing Paul Ryan.

We've even launched ads in Paul Ryan's very own district in Wisconsin – alerting every pro-Family American in the area about Paul Ryan's betrayal of pro-Family values.

But Public Advocate needs your help to spread the message of Ryan's betrayal.

After you sign your petition, please consider chipping in $10 or $25 to boost our program?

A quick donation of $10 or $25 will fund an additional 2,200 to 11,000 pro-Family views on Facebook alone.

And recent reports are indicating Paul Ryan will be hesitant to run if he feels there is enough grassroots opposition against him.

But unless pro-Family Americans voice their opposition, I'm afraid Congressmen will fall for the myth that Paul Ryan is a pro-Family politician.

Paul Ryan is the Trojan Horse of politicians.

He tries to fool Americans like me and you into believing he supports Religious Liberty and Traditional Values.

But his voting record of supporting the radical Homosexual Lobby's agenda reveals what he really believes in.

In fact, some sources have informed me the Homosexual Lobby secretly wants Paul Ryan.

And why wouldn't they?

Using his power as the Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan would be able to make backroom deals with the Homosexual Lobby and force weak-kneed Republicans into implementing their agenda.

Paul Ryan has already been a major supporter in voting for the Gay Bill of Special Rights.

Imagine what's next if he wins.

That's why it's crucial you sign your petition opposing Paul Ryan and chip in $10 or $25 immediately.

My staff will prepare and send the emergency fax to your Congressman right away.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States
