FORCED REPORTING - The Democrat controlled House Judiciary Committee is trying to add a reporting requirement to the Legislative Transparency and Accountably Act of 2007 which would force the Religious Freedom Coalition to report to the Federal Government every time one of these updates is distributed by e-mail. Only elected officials and unions would be exempted from reporting who they contacted and why. This same measure was defeated in the Senate but has been resurrected by Speaker Nancy Pelosi to harass conservative groups such as ours. Click here to contact your congressman about this issue.

PLEDGE PROTECTION ACT - In March the Religious Freedom Coalition will begin a massive direct mail campaign urging those who support "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance to contact Speaker Nancy Pelosi. We are hoping and praying for tens of thousands of letters to be signed by supporters of the Pledge of Allegiance to be delivered to Nancy Pelosi.

GREEN GREEN GASES - The Tennessee Center for Policy Research obtained public records that showed former Vice President Gore's mansion in Nashville consumes a monthly average of 18,414 kilowatt-hours, nearly double what the average American home consumes in an entire year. Just his heated pool house alone consumed more natural gas than his entire main living quarters. This energy gobbling 10,000 square foot, eight bathroom mansion is the largest of three residences the Gores maintain as homes. Oddly, Gore just won an Oscar for his contrived film on global warming which blames climate change on the energy use of Americans. Lately he has been flying all over the country in his pollution spewing private jet to promote his film urging American families to cut back on energy use and pollution. Click here for full report.
