I haven't written in quite some time. I have no real reason why that is, but I feel compelled to get the word out about two issues that are weighing on my heart and mind right now.

The first is the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. If this treaty is signed in the US, its effect on American families will be devastating to say the least. The new administration is poised to jump on this, so the time to get involved is now. Please visit www.parentalrights.org to find out what this is all about and how you can help.

Second, a letter follows that I received from another great organization. They are fighting yet another horrible piece of legislation. Please take a moment to read it and then go to their site.


I'm writing to let you know about a terrible piece of legislation called "The Freedom of Choice Act" (FOCA).
FOCA would establish the right to abortion as a fundamental right (like the right to free speech) and wipe away every restriction on abortion nationwide.
It will eradicate state and federal abortion laws the majority of Americans support and prevent states from enacting protective measures in the future.
FOCA will do away with state laws on parental involvement, on partial-birth abortion, and on all other protections.
FOCA will compel taxpayer funding of abortions.
FOCA will force faith-based hospitals and healthcare facilities to perform abortions.
Please read the expert analysis by Americans United for Life (AUL) and sign the Fight FOCA petition at: http://www.fightfoca.com/
Thank you

Blessings,
Angie
