---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: AUBURN STRUCTURAL DESIGN <> Date: Fri, Sep 4, 2009 at 2:09 PM Subject: FW: Religious liberty threat "under the radar" To: The Unrepentant Patriot <[email protected]> One of the most ominous threats to the rights of Christians could sneak under the radar this fall. Please see below and alert your friends. –Tom ROY, <http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21361&CID=185&RID=12864699> While much of the nation’s political attention is focused on socialized health care, a bill that threatens the rights of people of faith is again gaining momentum. The Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) – a bill which clearly places Christian beliefs on the wrong side of the law – is expected to be voted on this fall. ENDA is a threat to the rights of Christians because it would grant special workplace protections to people based on sexual orientation. As a result, Christian business owners could be faced with choosing between their beliefs and violating a federal law. ENDA would keep religious employers from making hiring and employment decisions based on their moral convictions. *Find out more about the dangers of ENDA by watching this week’s online <http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21362&CID=185&RID=12864699>**Focus Action Update <http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21363&CID=185&RID=12864699>video<http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21364&CID=185&RID=12864699> **.* Yesterday, I sent a letter to every member of the House of Representatives urging them to consider seriously the dangers of ENDA and vote against it when the time comes. You can read that letter *here<http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21365&CID=185&RID=12864699> *. I want to follow up that letter with a strong statement of grassroots opposition to ENDA. *Petition Opposing ENDA* Focus Action is continuing to gather petitions in support of religious liberties and in opposition to ENDA. More than 190,000 concerned citizens have already signed our petition. Please take a moment to sign our *Focus Action petition<http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21366&CID=185&RID=12864699> *, as well as forward this e-mail to your family and friends so they, too, can sign the petition. I know that with so many pressing issues facing our nation – the unprecedented assault on our liberties that is underway and the health care reform plan that currently mandates abortion coverage and taxpayer funding – it can be difficult to know how to make a difference. Our team began to recognize that the ENDA threat could easily sneak “under the radar.” That’s why we are putting out this call. Please *watch the video<http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21367&CID=185&RID=12864699> * and then *sign the petition<http://www.focuspetitions.com/r.asp?U=21368&CID=185&RID=12864699> *.
