The deceptive Senate Democrats are at it again.
Liberty Counsel's sources are reporting that the anti-faith
Hate Crimes bill will skip normal procedures and be put
on the fast-track to passage.
According to reports, the Senate leadership will attach
the bill as an amendment to another bill because it is
the "most efficient" way to get it passed -- bypassing
the traditionally longer process of committee deliberations
and markup.
Essentially, Harry Reid and others are going to hide the
bill as an attachment on another bill to expedite passage...
and short-circuit efforts to expose and defeat this
anti-faith measure.
+ + I'm telling Mr. Reid: "I Object!"
Contact Reid and other key Senators now
I'm asking you to support this with a flood of contact that will literally
overwhelm Sen. Reid's office as well as the offices
of other key leaders in the Senate -- along with your
own two Senators.

Of course, you can send your e-mails and faxes.
+ + Action #2 -- Call Majority Leader Reid and your Senators
I'm asking every person who agrees to call Harry Reid and
tell him you oppose the plan to fast-track the anti-faith,
anti-family Hate Crimes bill.
Majority Leader Harry Reid: 202-224-5556
Majority Whip Dick Durbin: 202-224-9447
Democratic Policy Chair Byron Dorgan: 202-224-3232
Here are the numbers for your two Senators in NY:
Sen. Schumer 202-224-6542
Sen. Gillibrand 202-224-4451
Talking Points:
1. I am very disappointed that the Senate is considering
fast-tracking the "Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention
Act" (S. 909) by attaching it as an amendment to another bill.
2. This bill deserves its own consideration as a stand-alone bill,
not being rushed forward as an amendment.
3. I oppose the Hate Crimes Prevention Act and urge you to
oppose it as well. It is an attack on faith and family
while granting special rights based on "sexual orientation"
and "gender identity," terms which are not even clearly
defined in the bill.
+ + This is a crucial battle
Very simply, this bill is the start of putting faith and family
values on the wrong side of the law -- and elevating deviant
behavior to protected status.
I will not allow Senate leaders to fast-track this bill and
rush it through without a real debate.
Thank you in advance for taking a stand with me.
