DeSoto County "Take A Knee" rally for Public Prayer

Message from Bill Beaty of LivingStone Ministries :

Need you guys to help. An atheist organization, FFRF, Freedom From Religion Foundation, has threatened the local school board with a lawsuit if they continue to allow a 30 second prayer for safety of players prior to high school football games. This is taking place in DeSoto County, Mississippi. This Sunday, Sept. 4, at 4:00 PM there is a rally scheduled called DeSoto County, Take A Knee. This is a pro-prayer rally. No one is forcing their beliefs on anyone else like this group is insinuating. Please publicise this event and pray for its success. Your community may be next!

"Very Important, Sunday, Sept. 4, 4:00 PM on the DeSoto County Courthouse Lawn, DeSoto County "Take A Knee" rally for Public Prayer.  The Desoto County Schoolboard has caved in to the threats of intollerant Athiests and has abolished prayer before High School foorball games.  Show your support for a just cause.  Don't allow this minority of ignorant people to trample our freedoms!"

People from all over will gather together on the Hernando, MS Courthouse Lawn to Pray and hear speakers from across DeSoto County who are passionate about God, Prayer in Our Schools, and Our GREAT County! We pray all our elected officials will be a part of this Historic event and "take a knee" for DeSoto County. This page was not set-up to debate, lets try to stay away from that. This is about what the Lord is doing to further His kingdom and bring DeSoto County together. Thank you all and God Bless.

Tell The NLRB to STOP its Assault On Worker Rights!

Header
Dear Maureen,

Obama's union boss buddies poured hundreds of millions into getting him and his Democratic allies elected in 2008, but they were unable to pass their signature legislation stripping workers of private ballot rights. And in last year's midterm election, they were wiped out.
But Obama's union buddies at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) won't take no for an answer.

The board is packed with radical union lawyers that Obama installed by the back door – so-called recess appointments to sidestep the Senate. Consider the words of Craig Becker, the former SEIU lawyer Obama put on the NLRB without Senate approval:
"Employers should be stripped of any legally cognizable interest in their employees' election of representatives."
Now Becker and his allies are proposing to gut workers rights with a proposal to force ambush elections on employers in as little as 10 days, without giving employers an opportunity to educate workers on the implications of forming a union. (This identical "ambush elections" proposal was the centerpiece of one of the last versions of the 'card check" bill that collapsed last Congress.)
The result: workers can be forced into unions and forced to pay dues that will be funneled to support left-wing political causes.
Fortunately, the NLRB is required by law to respond to public comments, and the public comment period ends August 22.

Thank you for your activism,

FairTax hearing details! Sign Petition to the Committee

If you haven’t signed the petition to the committee to fairly consider the FairTax, please do it now at www.fairtax.org/hearing.

The FairTax bill, HR 25, has been in committee since it was introduced - as all legislation begins. For a bill to be signed into law by the President, it first has to pass out of committee on a majority vote then receive a majority vote in both branch of Congress.  This purpose of this July 26 hearing is to educate committee members about the FairTax. It is one of a series of hearings on fundamental tax reform. But for the first time Ways and Means is so interested in learning about the FairTax we have a dedicated panel at a hearing! Focus of the hearing - The Committee on Ways and Means announced on July 19, 2011, “The hearing will consider separately two different consumption tax models.  One panel will examine the advantages and disadvantages of a VAT, whether as a supplement to or full replacement for existing taxes.  Another panel will discuss the policy arguments for and against adopting the FairTax as a replacement for existing federal taxes.” While they are not voting on the FairTax, this is a sign of major progress for our campaign.
The hearing details as they currently stand - The FairTax panel will be at 10:00 am and last about two hours. The FairTax side has three speakers: former Presidential Candidate and Governor Mike Huckabee as well as economic experts, Larry Kotlikoff, Ph.D and David G. Tuerck. Bruce Bartlett, who is featured several times in our rebuttal section, will be speaking in opposition. Each speaker will be allotted 5 minutes for introductory remarks, and committee members follow with questions. In addition, numerous economic advisors for Americans for Fair Taxation will be submitting written testimony for the record.
Watching the July 26 hearing - If you are in the DC area or are taking part in the Storm the Hill events and want to attend the hearing, we understand from the Ways and Means Commitee that it will be open to the public. Committee rooms designate seats for the public on a first come first serve basis and for high profile hearings they fill up quickly.
