TAKE ACTION! - Federal Marriage Amendment Provided by the Family Research Council. (http://www.frc.org/) A vote on the Federal Marriage Amendment is scheduled in the U.S. Senate this week of July 12th. Even if you've already done so, please take a minute and contact your Senators and Representatives in Congress. Tell them to act quickly so marriage will be protected in your state! If the future of the family is important to you, please commit to calling or faxing your elected officials every day this week. Go to www.senate.gov & www.house.gov to get their contact information. TAKE ACTION! - The Marriage Protection Act - HR 3313 Provided by E-Involved! (www.einvolved.org) This bill invokes the power of Congress to limit the jurisdiction of the federal courts from considering any case challenging the definition of marriage as the union of one man and one woman, as stated in the Defense of Marriage Act. It gives the U.S. Supreme Court immediate jurisdiction over any case that might arise concerning the obligation of a state to recognize a "marriage" performed in another state that does not conform to that definition. This act ensures that no irresponsible federal judge could decree that the entire nation must recognize same-sex marriage and it would prevent the transmission of same-sex marriages from one state to another. Contact your state Senators and ask them to sponsor and support The Marriage Protection Act. Call the White House free at 877-762-8762 and ask for your state Senators and they will transfer you to their direct line. TAKE ACTION - S. 2010, The Immigration Reform Act of 2004 Our TAKE ACTION item for today is provided by FAIR, the Federation for American Immigration Reform… on S. 2010, The Immigration Reform Act of 2004. This legislation is a guestworker amnesty program that would reward illegal aliens with legal permanent residency status. S. 2010 would lower wages and working conditions and displace American workers by allowing employers to import cheaper foreign guestworkers. Finally, this legislation would dramatically increase legal immigration far beyond current already high levels. It should be noted that despite the provisions of this legislation that purport to stem illegal immigration, nothing in the bill will prevent employers from continuing to employ illegal aliens just as they do today. Homeland security is ill served by this legislation and FAIR encourages citizens to urge their representatives to refrain from sponsoring this bill. I encourage you to make your voice known on this issue by going to FAIR’s website at www.fairus.org and type in action alerts in their search which will take you to a list of action items including on S.2010.Just follow the instructions.

President Bush and Congress have cut taxes three times in three different years. As a result, 111 million individuals and families will receive an average tax cut of $1,586 for 2003. This has worked to boost economic growth. The economy is accelerating at its fastest level in 20 years and more than 1.1 million jobs have been created since the last tax cut was put into place. However, even now, the big-government, anti-taxpayer members of Congress want to make sure that these tax cuts cannot be continued into future years. As a result, an Automatic Tax Increase (ATI) is on the horizon for every working American. Congress can stop the Automatic Tax Increase before it kicks in. Tell your Senators and Congressman to stop the Automatic Tax Increase! Make the tax cuts permanent! 1. Call your representatives and tell them to put pressure on
the Senate.
