Using amendments to circumvent due process

Historic City News has just learned that Harry Reid is rushing the anti-faith so-called Hate Crimes bill to the floor of the Senate this week.

Reid is bypassing the regular process and attaching Hate Crimes as an amendment to the Defense Authorization bill which Congress must pass in order to fund our military.

In essence, Majority Leader Reid is sneaking this bill through as an amendment because he knows opposition is growing and he fears the bill may not survive on its own.

This Hate Crimes bill is so controversial that it must be considered as a stand-alone bill, not rushed as an amendment.

I oppose the Hate Crimes Prevention Act and urge you to oppose it as well.

It is an attack on faith and family while granting special rights based on “sexual orientation” and “gender identity,” terms which are not even clearly defined in the bill.

Even worse, Reid is using the cover of Sonia Sotomayor’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings in hopes that the media and grassroots Americans will not take notice.

Please contact your Senator before it is too late
