LGBT - Religious liberty bill, unthinkable during Obama presidency

Image
Republican senators have breathed new life into a religious liberty protection bill, the passage of which was deemed hopeless while Barack Obama occupied the oval office. The newest version of the bill, however, also contains language that labels support for same-sex “marriage,” as long as recognized by federal law, a “religious liberty” issue like belief in man-woman marriage. On Thursday, Sen. Mike Lee , R-UT, reintroduced  The First Amendment Defense Act (FADA). It is a bill designed to prevent the federal government from discriminating against individuals or institutions based on their beliefs about marriage. “What an individual or organization believes about the traditional definition of marriage is not – and should never be – a part of the government’s decision-making process when distributing licenses, accreditations, or grants,”  said Sen. Lee . “And the First Amendment Defense Act simply ensures that this will always be true in America – that federal bureaucra

Homosexual Candidate Running Against a Man Who Denounced Homosexual Marriage

Image
Joan Greene, a small business owner and candidate for Arizona’s 5th Congressional District , has stated why she, among some 600 other women nationwide, decided to run for office for the first time.  The Republican lawmaker named Andy Biggs , has said homosexual marriage "is an affront to the millions of Americans who believe marriage is between a man and a woman. That is why she is running against Andy Biggs. A Democrat , Greene is endorsed by Run with Pride as an LGBT candidate with immoral values which are falesly called 'progressive values." She then makes her greatest error in saying: she has a desire to make the American Dream available to everyone.  Yet she wants to increase the broken immoral homosexual lifestyle choices people are making - the self harm, fast breakups, and bullying and divisive tactics and the silent gay health issues. She is supporting the LGBTQI agenda which places people in moral, relationship and faith danger.  Yet, this anoth

Politician tells teen raised by lesbians she has a right to a father: liberals furious

Image
A local Republican politician is taking flak for telling a teenager being raised by lesbians that she has a right to a father. Prince William County Brentsville Supervisor Jeanine Lawson spoke of 15-year-old Rose BruMar’s natural right to a father when the teen told her she’s being raised by “two moms.” Lawson  confirmed to local media  that she said “every child deserves a mother and father” after Rose approached her outside Gainesville Middle School on election day. According to Lawson’s account, she and the teen had a “pleasant and civil” conversation. The teen told her, “One of my moms doesn’t like you.” “That caught me by surprise a bit,” Lawson said. “She told me things about her family life, and I told her in a very polite way, I said I believe children deserve a mother and a father. It was not a debate about anything.” One of Rose’s adoptive “moms,” Evelyn BruMar, is a Democratic activist who said Lawson’s comment “meant to hurt my daughter and devalue he

Supreme Court judge: Marriage, religious liberty under attack

Image
The United States ’ commitment to   religious liberty   is   being tested   and hostility toward traditional moral beliefs is on the rise, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito told a group of Catholic lawyers Wednesday night. Justice Alito repeated the words he had written in his own dissent in the   Obergefell case   legalizing homosexual “marriage,” telling the group that he suspected the decision would be used to “vilify those who disagree, and treat them as bigots.”  "We are seeing this is coming to pass," Alito said. He then referenced a famed Bob Dylan song lyric, "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows." "A wind is picking up that is hostile to those with traditional moral beliefs," Alito said.   He told the audience that while religious freedom has been recognized in Congress and in the courts, attitudes are not so quick to change. The Supreme Court Justice described how a Democratic lawmaker  oppose

Pro-family activists call on Trump to undo Obama transgender ‘guidance’

Image
A leading pro-natural marriage advocate called on President-elect Donald Trump to reverse outgoing President Obama ’s pro-homosexual and pro-transgender Executive Orders while the ACLU threatens to sue Trump to stop him from implementing his campaign promises. Ryan Anderson , a senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation ,   tweeted : "Because so much of the bad that [Barack Obama] did came through executive action, [Donald Trump] can get rid of it all.” And he added: “With one stroke of a pen   @realDonaldTrump   can get rid of the DOE [Department of Education]/DOJ [ Department of Justice ] Transgender Agenda and allow local schools to find win-win solutions.” Back in May, in an interview with   The Washington Post , Trump promised to revoke Obama’s highly-controversial “transgender” student directive — which pushes schools to allow gender-confused students to use the opposite-sex restrooms of their perceived “gender identity,” under the threat of a federal civ

Roy Cooper wants men in women's change rooms?

Image
Not long ago, North Carolina's governor, Pat McCrory , signed an important common-sense law stopping men from gaining access to intimate facilities like restrooms and showers that are reserved for girls and women. We strongly applaud Governor McCrory‘s leadership, but the left has gone crazy — targeting him for defeat with hateful, orchestrated attacks. Governor McCrory's opponent, state Attorney General Roy Cooper , has come out in favor of allowing men into women's restrooms, and he's raising millions from LGBT extremists. What Roy Cooper isn't telling voters is that he's siding with convicted sex offenders like Chad Sevearance-Turner who helped lead the campaign in Charlotte to open female restrooms and showers to men like him. We've got to stop Roy Cooper and those that are backing his dangerous bathroom policy. That's why NOM has co-sponsored this powerful new TV ad with our friends and allies at the NC Values Coalition.

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry has blocked at least 37 state government legal contracts because they include language meant to protect gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people from discrimination in the workplace, according to state documents and interviews with state officials.   The contracts affect legal issues surrounding the state's ports, potential medical malpractice awards for patients and oversight of state bonds, among others, according to a review of documents and talks with the agencies involved.  The Louisiana Division of Administration -- part of Democratic Gov.  John Bel Edwards ' administration -- said it has tracked at least 26 contracts with private lawyers for a variety of services that Landry rejected because of the nondiscrimination clause.

Planned Parenthood volunteers help bring the fight for health insurance reform to the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Planned Parenthood took advantage of Mother’s Day to promote the antithesis of empowered motherhood : abortion . On its Twitter account, the nation’s largest abortion provider celebrated abortion and gender fluidity on the holiday dedicated to honoring mothers and the sacrifices they make for their children: “Planned Parenthood works every day to promote healthy, planned motherhood all over the world, and to support moms of all ages, races, and walks of life,” the abortion giant posted on Facebook .  “We wish you a Happy Mother's Day!” According to its   own annual report , Planned Parenthood ripped 323,999 children out of their mothers’ wombs during the fiscal year 2014-2015.  Planned Parenthood’s work promoting “healthy, planned motherhood all over the world” includes supplying to women hormonal birth control that the   Wor

GOP braces for convention battle over gay ‘marriage’

Image
A little more than six months before the nation elects its president, the Republican Party still has no leader. The coming convention is proving to be one of the most up-in-the-air, contested political events in recent memory. But behind the scenes, a battle of much greater import for the future of our nation is brewing. A powerful group of well-financed Republican leaders are pushing for change in the GOP official national platform, to support homosexual "marriage." Politico reports   that some of the wealthiest Republican financiers have been bankrolling the American Unity Fund, which is fighting a well-organized lobbying effort to influence convention delegates who will draw up the platform. Billionaires Paul Singer , Dan Loeb, Seth Klarman and Cliff Asness back the American Unity Fund, with its “army of volunteers spread out across the country.” In January's Republican National Committee meeting, American Unity Fund staffers met with influential part
