The Parental Rights Amendment

Gear Up for Victory in 2011 We are looking to win a major victory in 2011: we would see the U.S. House adopt the Parental Rights Amendment and send it to the Senate. We are making good progress toward that end, but there is still much work to be done. The single greatest thing you can do right now to pave the way for this 2011 victory is to schedule and host viewings of “The Child: America’s Battle for the Next Generation.” The more people who see this film, the larger the army of voters we can raise in support of protecting children by safeguarding the rights of their parents through this Amendment. As grassroots support swells across the country, it will become easier and easier to persuade congressmen from every state to stand up and support this measure. Our goal is to premiere in 1000 locations starting Nov. 20, and so far we have 100 sites. I hope this is a good sign, as I know many will need to check with locations before they can sign up for a showing. So check with the appropriate people and let us know as soon as possible. We look forward to hearing from you! (For more on “The Child” or to sign up to host a showing, visit parentalrights.org/thechild.) The second greatest thing you can do this week is take one last opportunity to encourage every candidate in your area to sign the Parental Rights Pledge before next Tuesday’s elections. Through your efforts we have gained the support of 2 dozen candidates across the country, including contestants in hot races like the Nevada and Kentucky Senate elections. Even more importantly, we have added to the number of districts in which, no matter who wins next week, the Parental Rights Amendment is guaranteed support in the next Congress. Please, visit parentalrights.org/states, click on your state, then on Elections 2010 (or click your state name here), and call those candidates who still have not pledged their support. I look forward to posting your movie showings and pledge successes online! Gratefully, Michael Ramey Director of Communications and Research
