Washington, DC – American Life League president Judie Brown congratulated the organizers of Colorado’s human personhood campaign on the launch of their new Internet tool: My Campaign Tracker.
“We’re very excited to see this new resource that will help spread the Amendment 62 campaign’s simple yet profound message: EVERY human being should be recognized as a person and protected under the law,” Brown said.
My Campaign Tracker provides suggestions for grassroots campaign activism and allows users to track their work in support of Amendment 62 and connect with other campaigners.
Supporters then can watch in real-time as their grassroots efforts are recorded and multiplied across the Johanna Dasteel, director of American Life League’s personhood project, has spent the last month in Colorado assisting the campaign’s educational outreach.
“We’re working to obtain recognition of the most basic human right of all,” Dasteel said. “Human beings are persons – not property. If we’re serious about civil rights, if we’re serious about equality and the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence, then we have to reconcile the law with our American ideals: Every human being has a right to be recognized and protected as a person – now.”
Amendment 62, cosponsored by Colorado Right to Life and Personhood Colorado, reads as follows:
“Person defined. As used in sections 3*, 6**, and 25*** of Article II of the state constitution, the term ‘person’ shall apply to every human being from the beginning of the biological development of that human being.”
American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to natural death.

Grace and Truth - DAVID JEFFERS
AIPNews.com
AIP is 'Always In Prayer' Network
July 12, 2010
David Jeffers
That will be the subject of a series of devotionals I will be doing. It's the theme for our church this year, grace and truth:
"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:14)
This series will begin in August; I am taking a hiatus for the rest of July. I am finishing my revised, updated, and expanded hardcover version of my book "Understanding Evangelicals: A Guide to Jesusland"; I will be adding chapters on health care, immigration, and the environment. My prayer is to have it available by the end of September in time for the elections to spur on the evangelical voting bloc to turn out in mass armed with a biblical perspective on what true conservatism is, not the white-washed version the majority of politicians, Republicans primarily, with which to deceive the flock. (The current softcover version is available on Amazon.)
In the pursuit of the truth there must be grace. Truth without grace is a sledgehammer; grace without truth is sugar water. We need both and the Bible teaches us how.
While I am on this hiatus I ask that you begin reading the Gospel of John. There are 21 chapters in John's gospel; if you will read one chapter every day beginning today, then when I begin the devotional again on August 2nd, you will have read through the whole gospel.
Will you commit to do that? Can you carve out 15-20 minutes in the morning before you go to work? Will you do that for Jesus?
I want to share a link to a message from a Lion of the Faith the late Dr. Adrian Rogers; I was listening to it Saturday night on my iPod as I was mowing the yard. Oh did it convict me so. I pray you will listen to it and allow the Holy Spirit free reign in your heart. Here's the link to the message:

May the Lord richly bless you the rest of this July and please know that I will fervently be praying for each of you (229) while I am on my hiatus.
And as an act of commitment I would so love for you to reply to this email and tell me you are committing to read John's Gospel.
In Christ

Maryland - Montgomery County - transgender aide sues County under law s/he helped craft
AIPNews.com
Maryland Independent Party
March 18, 2010
The front page of today's Washington Examiner is dominated by a photo of Rep. Barney Frank standing with a Montgomey County councilperson's policy aide. Headline: "Transgender sues under her own law; MontCo aide charges bias, seeks $5M"
The aide, Dr. Dana Beyer, reportedly takes exception with the county ethics commission's investigation into allegation about Beyer: that Beyer used government position to try to intimidate petition circulators while they were gathering signatures outside a grocery store. Here's how the Examiner puts it:
"After a seven-month investigation by the county attorney, the ethics commission found that Beyer violated county law and called for a hearing. Beyer said the commission used flimsy evidence to reach that conclusion and acted outside its normal practices in investigating the complaint. She said the commission authorized an improper search of her work computer without her consent, leaked details of the investigation and threatened to investigate the circumstances of her hiring, all with the goal of 'embarrassing' and 'harassing' Beyer because of her transgender status."

Note: I was one of the volunteer circulators of that petition, including two stints in front of a grocery store
The Montgomery County law, including the 2008 petition drive, was the subject of thread here at the time:
