Staff
Washington D.C.- Congressman Steve King (R-IA) today announced that efforts to force the House of Representatives to vote on legislation providing for a 100% repeal of “Obamacare” continued to gain momentum, with the addition of the 153rd signature. Once the discharge petition reaches 218 signatures, Speaker Pelosi will not be able to prevent the repeal legislation from receiving, and passing, a vote on the floor.
“Efforts to repeal the deeply unpopular ‘Obamacare’ bill continue to gather momentum,” said King. “We now have 153 Members of the House of Representatives on record calling for full repeal of ‘Obamacare’, including Republican Leader Boehner, Republican Whip Cantor and GOP Conference Chairman Pence. I expect these numbers to continue to swell."
A list of Members who have signed on to the legislation (organized by state) has been provided below:

CONTACT: Katie Walker

Washington, DC – American Life League Vice President Jim Sedlak issued the following statement on the Pro-Life Freedom Rides scheduled to begin Friday, July 23:
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the Freedom Riders as they launch an exciting crusade that seeks to bring to the forefront the need to secure the equal rights of all human beings. With the blessings of God, we hope to see this effort spread across the country and into every community.
“Like their forebearers in the civil rights movement, those embarking on Freedom Rides this weekend will be taking a public stand for truth, justice and equal protection under the law.
“The pro-life movement is indeed the civil rights movement of the 21st century. More and more Americans are rising up against oppression of the weakest and most helpless among us, and taking a stand for freedom. Let this Freedom Ride across the country be a clarion call for all people of good will to join together to work for the day when America recognizes the dignity and personhood of all human beings – in particular, the preborn and other vulnerable persons.
“We call on all Americans to welcome these Freedom Riders with open arms. The time has come to recognize the personhood of all people in the town square of every city. The time has come for personhood NOW.”
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.

Center for Security Policy
Frank Gaffney
Message from Frank Gaffney: The Center for Security Policy today unveiled a powerful 1-minute video opposing the construction of a 13-story, $100 million mega-mosque near the hallowed ground of the World Trade Center. The Twin Towers were destroyed on 9/11 by adherents to the barbaric, supremacist and totalitarian program authoritative Islam calls "Shariah." And the imam who is promoting this mosque has publicly declared that he seeks to "bring Shariah to America."
