EEOC Nominee Chai Feldblum Hides Bizarre Views
By TVC Executive Director Andrea Lafferty
November 19, 2009 – Chai Feldblum, the activist lawyer who has been nominated for a post on the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, (EEOC) just finished her testimony before the Senate Health, Education, Labor And Pensions Committee.
Traditional Values Coalition has been warning that Feldblum’s confirmation to the EEOC will be a steppingstone to the U.S Supreme Court where she will have a lifetime appointment.
Proving our point, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) introduced Feldblum to the Committee. In his introduction of her, he laid the foundation with his description of her as having an “unsurpassed judicial temperament” --- an odd way to describe a non-judicial nominee.
I was at the hearing and listened to her deliberately lie and omit facts about her long-term support of a union of three or more individuals to Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA). Read More...

EEOC Nominee Ghostwrites New Liberty Into the Constitution Violates the Free Exercise of Religion
November 19, 2009 – Traditional Values Coalition strongly opposes the nomination of Chai Feldblum to become a Commissioner on the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
Feldblum has published numerous legal papers that clearly show her out-of-mainstream views on the First Amendment and religious liberty. If confirmed to the EEOC, Feldblum will use her power to strip nearly all First Amendment rights of free exercise of religion from Christian business owners. She would exploit her position on the EEOC to use the force of government to change the social norms of private institutions.
Feldblum has spent her entire career working to impose the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) agenda on America. Feldblum earned a B.A. from Barnard College and a law degree from Harvard Law School in 1985. She currently teaches gay/gender law at Georgetown University Law School. She formerly worked as a law clerk for Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun; legislative council for the AIDS Project of the American Civil Liberties Union; served as legal director for the Campaign for Military Service; founded the Workplace Flexibility 2010 project; and the Moral Values Project. All of her efforts have been directed at promoting gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender sexual behaviors as “good” and to force Americans to affirm these sexual activities. Read More...

Government-Run Health Care Bill Hits Senate
November 11, 2009 -- Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her socialist allies in the House rammed through a $1.2 trillion nationalized health care bill late Saturday night. The vote was 220-215. Democrats needed 218 to pass the bill. It only actually won by 2 votes.
PelosiCare will nationalize our health care system. As written, her 2,000 page bill increases taxes on all Americans, reduces coverage for seniors on Medicare, creates a “public option” that will eventually drive out private health insurance altogether, and creates 118 new federal bureaucracies.

PRESS STATEMENT: “Health Care Bill Still Bad Medicine for America”
By Andrea Lafferty, Executive Director
November 9, 2009 – Washington, DC – This is not a good news/bad news story. This is a little good news buried in a lot of really bad news.
Our efforts to get pro-life language into the monstrous Pelosicare bill paid off. In the final hours before the vote, Pelosi and the other pro-aborts in the Democratic leadership were cornered, and they begrudgingly allowed a vote on the Stupak amendment, which passed. Your calls, faxes, e-mails paid off. They needed pro-life Democrats to get their slim margin of victory.
So we can celebrate that small victory, but don’t get too involved in celebrating because there is lots to work on and pray about. Read More...

“This rally was a warning shot to Nancy Pelosi and other socialists in Congress that Americans don’t want nationalized health care,” said TVC Chairman Rev. Louis P. Sheldon. “I was honored to be among so many patriotic Americans who are demanding an end to this effort to destroy the finest health care system in the world.”
Some of the speakers at the rally included actor Jon Voight, House Republican Leader John Boehner (OH), House Republican Whip Eric Cantor (VA), Louie Gohmert (TX) and dozens of other legislators who urged voters to stand fast against passage of PelosiCare – a monstrous 1,990-page bill that will cost an estimated $1.2 trillion.

PelosiCare Vote Looms This Weekend!
By TVC Executive Director Andrea Lafferty
November 4, 2009 – Democrat leaders in the House are rushing through a vote on Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s 1,990-page health care bill this Saturday. (Pelosi’s bill nationalizes health care and creates 111 new federal bureaucracies!)
Pelosi dropped her bill (H.R. 3962) just last week and expects legislators to have read, absorbed and understood the 1,990 pages of legalese in it.
Pro-Life legislators have zeroed in on sections in the bill that will be used to mandate abortion coverage as part of a government-run health care program.
Pelosi’s bill currently authorizes federal funding for abortion in the public option and subsidies for private insurance that includes abortion through affordability credits.
TAKE ACTION:
- Urge your Representative to vote YES on the Stupak/Pitts amendment and NO on the passage of PelosiCare, ObamaCare Or HarryCare in the Senate. No legislation must be passed that creates a socialized health care system in America.
- Call the Capitol Hill Switchboard: 202-224-3121 and ask for your Representative’s office.
- Please forward this to ten friends!
- SUPPORT TVC’S IMPORTANT WORK!

Senate Moves to ENDA Religious Freedom
November 2, 2009 –
Senate Democrats don’t think they have created enough havoc so they have decided to hold a hearing on ENDA—S. 1584, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee
will hold a hearing this Thursday, Nov 5 at 10:00am.
This legislation must be defeated. YOUR HELP IS NEEDED TODAY.
Click here for Action.
The Senate hearing is likely to be a rehash of what happened in the House on September 23 when House Democrats held a three-hour hearing on ENDA. The hearing was an orchestrated propaganda event promoting the gay lifestyle and Gender Identity Disorders.
The Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) is a pro-gay, pro-transgender bill that will be a nightmare for business owners, religious broadcasters and other Christian entities. Read More...
