let freedom ring.

Happy 4th of July weekend. Lets remeber to keep our freedoms. Our freedom to worship is right now being challenged in the senate.

Dear Friends,

In the coming two weeks, we could see a major turning point in American society--the first time in history that biblically orthodox Christian beliefs could officially be placed on the wrong side of the law.

I'm talking about the pending vote on the anti-faith "hate crimes" bill that is expected in the Senate within the next few weeks. This bill could impact your pastor's freedom of speech to preach the biblical view of homosexuality. Even though the bill does not specifically target pastors, combining it with the existing "inducement" statute could result in a pastor being charged if an individual commits a violent crime against a homosexual after hearing a sermon about God's view of sexuality.

But that's not the only congressional threat to people of faith. We've recently learned that some in Congress want to use the Department of Defense Authorization bill in such a way that it could discriminate against pro-life servicemen and women or military recruits!

Danger to Faith and FamilyThe "hate crimes" bill is just one of many issues our staff is closely monitoring right now. The Obama White House and the Democrat-controlled Congress have created a flood of bills and initiatives that dramatically impact our faith and families--more than we could have planned or budgeted for. This has required our team to expand our efforts into new policy areas to defend faith and family while exposing how the rapid overreach of government power is undermining our values.

For faith and family, Tom Minnery

Senior Vice President, Government & Public Policy
