Your LCA team was fighting on two major battlefields this week.

HR 5 had its first hearing in the House Judiciary Committee. Unfortunately, Democrat legislators put on a chilling display of ignorance and outright bigotry against both females and people of faith.

But while the Judiciary Committee was in its poisonous session, other House members unveiled a viable plan for getting passage of the Born Alive Act. This bold new pro-life initiative includes an end-run around the death-loving leadership of the House.

I need you to make your voice count in Washington D.C. as these momentous events unfold. See how you can make a real difference in both battles below – Mat.

Last week, the House Judiciary Committee’s discussion of the badly misnamed Equality Act (HR 5) became absolutely surreal. The scheduled testimony pushed a bill so tyrannical that it could have come straight from Red China. To set the radical Left’s stage, the most “conservative” expert testimony came from a former co-chair of the LGBTQ commission in Baltimore!

Another expert witness hemmed and hawed before claiming, “I don’t think” HR 5 will affect colleges or churches. That is an outright lie. If a college tried to exclude someone based on their race, it would likely lose an expensive lawsuit and be forced to comply with existing Civil Rights laws, and rightfully so.

HR 5 intends to add LGBT concerns and “Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity” (SOGI) to the nation’s Civil Rights laws and codes. Yet a constitutional law professor from NYU actually testified HR 5 somehow wouldn’t have the same effect for LGBT and SOGI issues that other protected classes have under existing Civil Rights law. Bizarre!

Make no mistake, this oppressive bill, if enacted, would give radical pro-homosexual groups and their lawyers everything they need to criminalize Christianity. Will you invest in helping LCA aggressively oppose the so-called Equality Act right now? We are committed to stopping HR 5 and we need your financial support to put up the best fight possible. This is a defining moment for religious freedom in America and my request for your help is an urgent one.



Supporters of this bill are desperately trying to silence the Christian voice during the debate. After more than an hour of testimony, when a true conservative, Rep. Matt Gaetz, began testifying, it took the Chairman just 21 seconds to interrupt and ask Gaetz to “yield” his time (to stop talking).

But just like Rep. Gaetz – who did NOT yield – Liberty Counsel Action will not be silenced! The committee is expected to vote on HR 5 within two days. Meanwhile, we are working with a number of Representatives, researching and distributing essential information, providing talking points and explaining the gravity of this bill up and down the halls of Congress.

Our staff understands what is at stake here and I hope you do, as well. I urge you to sign Liberty Counsel Action’s petition against HR 5. Help us expose the fact that liberal progressives are grossly misrepresenting the intent and impact of this bill. Pro-faith, pro-family Americans must not passively sit by while radicals intensely work to destroy our religious freedom!

A brighter path for the sanctity of life...

This week, pro-life members of both the Senate and the House worked on the Born Alive Act. The House has a procedure called a “discharge petition” that could force a House floor vote if a majority of Representatives sign it. LCA is endorsing this strategy and urging members to take this critical step!

We know that pro-life support has jumped between 14-17 percent already this year, due in part to the Born Alive Act’s advance in Congress. And polls reveal that 77 percent of Americans support the protections found in this bill!

We need to get every single House member on record as being for or against infanticide. Already, more than 190 legislators have signed the discharge petition for the Born Alive Act. This way, every Representative will either sign the petition or go on record as supporting infanticide.

We need to let every legislator know that we are closely watching – and that all of America will know their position on infanticide.

For your part, will you sign our pledge for life? We have already successfully targeted and convinced several Democrat Senators who split from their caucus to support the Born Alive Act in the Senate. We hope to do the same thing in the House. We have targeted more than 30 Representatives. But to be fully effective and get the best possible leverage, we need many more names on our pledge. If you haven’t done so already, will you promise to help defend life today?

When it comes to mounting effective lobbying campaigns, educating members of Congress and influencing key legislation, financial support is the lifeblood of organizations like ours.

I promise that we will continue doing everything possible to both STOP the so-called Equality Act and ADVANCE vital pro-life measures like the Born Alive Act. Will you step up so that we have the resources to win these battles?

Our staff’s resources have been stretched thin this week by literally having to be in two places at the same time. The legislative battle is intense, and the coming week will see yet more critical activity in the House. We need as many freedom-loving, pro-faith and pro-family Americans as possible to get involved.



We know that the results belong to God, but the necessary actions are ours. Please stand with us by helping supply the resources we need to win!
