Site Correction on FOCA

Chiquita Coggs emailed me about my Claire McCaskill Protest article. I mentioned that FOCA was about Union Card Check legislation but what I should have said was Employee Free Choice Act.
Please use the link above (the Headline Link) to see information about that legislation in depth. It's pretty scary stuff. FOCA on the other hand is about the rights of the unborn and is called the Freedom of Choice Act. Go to this site for complete details on this heinous Act:

The House bill, H.R. 1964, was introduced by Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), who in the new Democratic-majority Congress is the chairman of the House Judiciary subcommittee that has jurisdiction over such legislation. At NRL News deadline on April 25, his bill had 71 cosponsors (70 Democrats, one Republican). (To view an always-current list of co-sponsors, arranged by state, click here.)

The Senate bill, S. 1173, introduced by Senator Barbara Boxer (D-Ca.), had 13 Democratic cosponsors, including presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton (NY), plus independent Joseph Lieberman (Ct.). (To view an always-current list of co-sponsors, arranged by state, click here.)

The lawmakers proposing the legislation, and groups endorsing it, repeatedly emphasized that the bill would, among other things, completely nullify the national ban on partial-birth abortion that the Supreme Court upheld on April 18 in Gonzales v. Carhart.

The left is on the move on all fronts and we need to be aware of all of tricks being played in Congress. The transparency promises made by Obama during his campaign and since are nothing more than BOLD FACE LIES! The American people deserve better but we must remain vigilent. Speak Out! Be heard!
