July Meeting
 
Tuesday, July 24th, 6:30pm
Rock Falls Public Library


We will be joined by special guests
Marilyn Dent and Claire Van Horn of

Honest Elections Illinois
 
Marilyn and Claire will present us with ways that each of us can help guarantee honest elections in Illinois and will share with us the actions their group is already taking to engage voters in the process and make sure the system works as it should.  Voter fraud occurs in every election.  In fact, 46 states have prosecuted cases of voter fraud, including four party officials in Indiana, a sheriff in West Virginia, 38 Virginians netted in a state police investigation, and a political operative in Maryland.

Voter ID laws are being challenged and states that are trying to eliminate voter fraud are being sued by the Obama administration!  It is up to each of us to do our part to make sure every legitimate vote is counted and only those eligible to vote are able to do so!

 

I know summer is a very busy time, but I urge you
to bring a friend or family member with you
--these ladies are travelling a long way to share this information with us--
let's make it worth their effort! 

Join us Tuesday to learn how you can make a difference in November!
Constitution Day Rally
We will be discussing ideas Tuesday for our upcoming Constitution Day Rally on the Riverfront in Dixon.  This is sure to be a great event!  Stay tuned for more information or get involved and help us plan an inspirational event!

U.N. Treaties Threaten
U.S. Sovereignty


Arms Trade Treaty

Read the Heritage Foundation Anyalysis of ATT treaty HERE
Obama is supposedly going to sign this treaty on July 27th!  Act NOW

Law of the Sea Treaty
(defeated for now, Praise the Lord!)

Convention on the Rights of the Child
Read the ParentalRights.org analysis of CRC treaty HERE
--Learn about the Parental Rights Amendment HERE
--Urge your Senators and Representatives to co-sponsor the Parental Rights Amendment


Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities

Read the Heritage Foundation Analysis of CRPD treaty HERE
Looks like this mess is going to pass out of committee...contact your Senators NOW and tell them that you do NOT want this treaty ratified!  It would take away the right of parents to make the decisions they feel are best for their disabled children

Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women Treaty

Send Free Faxes
Most groups who want you to fax your opinion to members of Congress usually charge a fee or expect a donation to send your fax on.  NumbersUsa offers a free fax service for immigration issues.  Check out their free fax page HERE

 
Nationwide Food Drive
Conservatives are often accused by the left of being uncaring and greedy. You and I
know that is not the case! Just because we believe the government should not take
our money to give away as they see fit, does not mean that we do not believe in
helping our neighbors. 


Advocating for smaller government means that we need to step up and help those less
fortunate than ourselves. We need to show people that we can and will do what is
necessary to fill the needs in our communities.
Please check out Mercury One's
food drive efforts.
I think this is a very exciting
(and EASY) way to get involved!


Whiteside County Planning
and Zoning Hearing

Whiteside Planning and Zoning Hearing on the Special Use Permit Request for nine
turbines in Whiteside County as part of the pending Green River Wind Farm wrapped up
last Wednesday with closing comments from local residents.  Due to a recent IL law which
states that the County Board must take action on items referred to them from their
committees within 30 days, the Zoning Committee has scheduled their next
meeting and discussion on this hearing for Aug. 1, 2012.  The meeting will be held
at the Rock Falls Community Building, 7pm

Letter to Lee County from 14 year Co-Chair of Alliance to Save Energy

 

Didn't get much response last time, so I'm going to try again...

Seeking Volunteers
 
for the SVTP
 
Leadership Council

We are seeking folks to commit to helping plan and schedule events and meetings, brainstorm topics and invite speakers.  If we get several people involved in this effort, it will minimize the workload on each person and allow us to be more effective in our efforts. 
I can't continue to do it all on my
own, folks!  I need your help! 
If you are on this mailing list, you know that things are not going well in our nation.  You are concerned enough to pay attention, but will you step up and actually help us preserve liberty for our children and grandchildren?

Please email me at
if you have any questions or would like to get involved.
 
Amanda

(If you have already expressed an interest in being part of the Leadership Council, I thank you for your willingness to help out!  I still have your information and will be contacting you in a few weeks.)
