[Lekooks] Fwd: Spread the word about Project Blitz

Thu Feb 7 10:41:42 CST 2019

If you are concerned about preserving the separation of church and state (as a UU, this should be important to you), please see below.
This is about the Congressional Prayer Caucus (cpcfoundation.com) "blitz" to get "prayer caucuses" established in the state legislatures to write laws furthering Christian Nationalism in all of the states. Wisconsin does not yet have a Legislative Prayer Causus, but I'm sure that's coming soon (and that "our" Sen. Kapenga will be behind it).

With great concern for our freedom to not have someone else's religion forced down our throats,

Gerry Flakas

Dear Gerald,

 Last week President Trump tweeted his support for creating Bible classes in our public schools. The week before, his administration sanctioned taxpayer-funded discrimination – outrageously in the name of “religious freedom” – by allowing South Carolina foster care agencies the right to refuse to work with anyone they deem the “wrong” religion.  These are just two examples of how the Religious Right is gaining momentum with their agenda to establish a "Christian nation."

The Religious Right has been escalating their efforts to use religion as the basis for discrimination through a national coordinated effort called Project Blitz. You’ve heard us talk about Project Blitz before, but with so much on the line and the president using his platform to boost their message – we need your help to spread the word!

Watch and share this video so everyone knows why Project Blitz is an assault on our constitutional principles:
  |

  |

|  

|  
 As of today, 22 Project Blitz bills in 16 states have already been introduced this year. And the list keeps growing. We need your voice now to raise awareness about this alarming effort by the Religious Right.

Click these links to share the video on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and help us fight back for true religious freedom for all.

With determination,

 Rachel K. Laser
 President & CEO
