OKC 912 Action Alerts

Our next General meeting of the OKC912Project will be Thursday, September 2 at (fill in time after finding out about the hot dog thing). We will meet at the Del City American Legion Hall. On the agenda this month is Cindy Truong who is currently an Assistant District Attorney and running for District Judge. She will tell us about herself and the long road from Vietnam to an American success story. We will also be examining and discussing the State Questions we will be voting on in November. Hopefully we can get a short debrief from anyone in the group that attends the 8-28 rally in DC.

Please come prepared to discuss our State and Country and her future with other concerned Oklahomans and Americans. We look forward to seeing you.

Sincerely,
OKC912Project Leadership

This is TRULY Awesome! A way to REPEAL Obamacare!!! I have talked to numerous small business people already feeling the effects of this onerous piece of legislation that nobody but Pelosi, Reed and Obama wanted. Please, take the time to go to the Heritage Foundation website http://heritageforamerica.org/ and read about how a repeal would work. Write your Congressman/woman - even your senators and ask them to file a discharge petition and then sign it once written!!! Find your Congressmman/woman here: http://www.congress.org/

There’s this thing in the United States House of Representatives called a “discharge petition.” In a nutshell, a congressman can write a bill and, when the leaders in charge of the House refuse to do anything with it, the congressman can file a discharge petition. The petition, if personally signed by 218 congressmen, forces the House Speaker to put the matter up for a vote by the House.
Why is this important?
Well, every Republican in the House of Representatives and a bunch of Democrats say if a vote were held tomorrow, they would vote to repeal Obamacare. In fact, if you add up all the Blue Dogs, the Republicans, and the Democrats now scrambling for political cover saying they’d vote to repeal, you arrive at the magic number of 218, which also happens to be the total number of votes needed to pass a piece of legislation in the House of Representatives.
Congressman Steve King (R-IA) has filed a discharge petition on legislation he has drafted to repeal Obamacare. He needs 218 signatures.

I just talked to SONNIE in Senator Reynolds (521-5522) office AFTER making a phone call to Speaker Benge's office and being told that NOTHING ELSE CAN BE HEARD FOR THIS SESSION.

This is a SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION (5) and can be heard at any time as long as it is alive. Sonnie made a phone call and assured me it is. She said it was in the GCCA
(General Conference Committee Assignment). It was her understanding that it can be removed from the committee and placed on the House Floor for a vote ANYWAY.

It appears the Big Government lobbyist has successfully found someone to amend HB 2569 for Senator Newberry.

Senator Randy Bass has filed a floor amendment to HB 2569, to allow for RFID-enabled "enhanced drivers licenses" (EDLs) in OK.
EDLs have an RFID tracking chip in the them and are part of the federal government push toward creating an national/international ID card. EDLs further the implementation of the notoriously controversial Real ID Act of 2005,.

HJR 1054 the Healthcare Freedom of Choice Act needs to move forward.

This is a joint resolution for a proposed constitutional amendment stating; "A law or rule shall not compel, directly or indirectly, any person, employer or health care provider to participate in any health care system; and A person or employer may pay directly for lawful health care services and shall not be required to pay penalties or fines" for lack of insurance.

Here is the progress of HJR 1054 thus far;

Hi everyone,

I just got an email from the Oklahoma Constitutional Alliance saying that there is a movement to "strike title" on HJR1054 the Oklahoma Health Care bill written by Representative Mike Ritze. designed to allow Oklahomans to opt out of Obamacare.

IF YOU HAVEN'T CALLED on this issue - PLEASE do so TODAY! This is so very important.

You can email every representative using the list below. Paste the addresses in the BCC line so that all of the representatives you are emailing are not privy to this action.

Freedom Works petition to let Congress know we don't WANT health care RECONCILIATION. Sign and pass on if you are interested.

Being that women are the heart of the traditional family, we intuitively know what is best for our children. We know that it is up to us, under the authority of God, to protect our children – to provide them a future of individual liberties, an education based on excellence, and a moral community grounded in Judeo-Christian values. We hereby pledge to advance these goals even if it is uncomfortable - even if that involves sacrificing time and energy we feel we may not have. We the Women will lean on one another for support as we do what is necessary to save our Republic for our children.

9/12'ers scored a TRIFECTA + 1 today as no less than FOUR letters to the editor on the Leonard Pitt's article "Culture War...Literally" were published in the Opinion section of the Daily Oklahoman. Martha Garuccio, Ken Moore, Dan Roberts and Jenni White had letters that all made the cut!

WOW! Now we're up to FIVE! Judith Bryan got published today (9/26)!

Everyone,

I am trying to prevent an inundation of email to people by instituting a weekly email with information and action materials. Rest assured...if something TIME SENSITIVE arrives on my desk, I will not wait a week to tell you. My main concern has simply been overdoing the email.
