    Article 8 preparing to file bills for the upcoming legislative session! 

 

 

NEWS ITEM:  " Gay-rights supporters sue over Georgia amendment banning gay marriage"  [Boston Herald–Nov. 9]  Just what you can expect from an extreme anti-democratic movement.  The election is barely over and the homosexual lobby is out trying to subvert the people’s will by pushing another phony court case.  It would happen here too, unless we’re prepared to stop it.  Click here to read the article.

 

 

OPINION ARTICLE:  "Article 8: Telling the truth about Sciortino creates shock"  [Somerville Journal–Nov. 11]  After the Somerville Journal casually referred to our information leaflets in the Ciampa race as “hate” we immediately complained.  So they invited us to write an op-ed article, which appeared today!  Click here to read the article.

NEWS ITEM:  "College groups taking protest to Romney's house – Students, staff to demand funds"  [Boston Globe–Nov. 6]  Just an illustration of how wacky the Boston Globe has become.  Conservatives (and Article 8) regularly have protests all over the place, sometimes with hundreds of people, at all kinds of locations, that never get covered by the Globe.  But two dozen “higher education activists” (a pet cause of the Globe lefties) are PLANNING a protest, and their news staff gets right to work!  Click here to read the article.

 

 

===  Preparing to file bills for the upcoming legislative session!  ===

 

On January 1, a new two-year legislative session begins.  About a month before each session starts (i.e., every two years) bills to be taken up during that session must be filed.  This year, the deadline for filing is December 1 – about three weeks from today.

 

Article 8 Alliance will be working with pro-family legislators to file key bills:

 

 

  • The new Parents Rights Bill (see text)

 

We are also working on another pro-marriage bill, which we’ll let you know about soon.

 

Do any of you have any other ideas for needed pro-family legislation?  This is the time to not only think about it, but start taking action!  If you have any ideas, let us know right away.  Maybe there are things we haven’t thought of that are extremely necessary. 

 

Writing a bill properly, and getting it introduced, can be very tricky, but we have written successful legislation in the past, and we also have experts we can call on. 

 

(It’s possible to get your own rep to submit a bill.  But those are generally called “courtesy” bills are often not taken seriously.) 

 

So let’s hear your ideas. 

 

After Dec. 1, it will be much more difficult to get bills filed, particularly those that the new leadership doesn’t like. 

 

 

BY THE WAY, KEEP IN MIND that the left-wing special interests, and the homosexuals in particular, will be flooding the Legislature with their own bills.  That’s their modus operendi, and we don’t we do it enough.  However, if the past is any measure, their bills will fall into two general categories:  (1) Trojan-horse legislation that looks reasonable in its wording, but is actually quite dangerous.  Planned Parenthood does this a lot to slip in more taxpayer-funded pro-abortion sex-ed into schools.  And (2) lots of completely loopy or outrageous bills that they file on the outside hope that they can force one of them through if they try hard enough.  The Buffer Zone law, passed a few years ago, was one of those that eventually got up enough steam to pass. The gays file a lot of these kinds of bills.  For example, each the last several sessions they filed some form of civil unions bill, which always fell flat on its face.  Then, of course, they struck gold with the SJC.  But we’ll surely see a lot more from the gays, you can be sure.  As usual, we’ll have our work cut out for us to keep any of it from getting through.

 

 

 

AS WE’VE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG – IT’S UP TO THE PEOPLE NOW!  THIS CAN AND WILL BE WON.
