Your Action Defeated Planned Parenthood!!
Thank you for your action on our recent e-mail!  Because of your calls, pro-life taxpayers won the day in the House of Representatives.  Without your calls, letters and e-mails, pro-family champions in the House would not have been able to stop the Democrat leadership from providing yet another government-funded perk to Planned Parenthood which they had tucked into a funding bill for our troops at war. June 20, 2008

Next week, the House will consider two bills that make it possible to establish off-reservation Indian casinos.  Please call your Representative at 202-225-3121 and ask him/her to oppose building new casinos.  Gambling is destructive and undermines family stability.June 19, 2008

Act Now to Save Abstinence Education

If Title V is not reauthorized for more than a three-month period, it will, for all intents and purposes, kill abstinence education.
