As always - follow the bucks. The ACLU has found a cash cow. Reportedly, their lawsuit that removed the Ten Commandments from a court house in Alabama garnered attorney fees of half a million. The taxpayers foot the bill. Talk about taxation without representation. Why do you have to pay the ACLU to pursue lawsuits with which you do not agree?


This effort died in Spector's Senate Committee on the Judiciary. Tax bucks still spent to support the ACLU.


S 3696, the Senate version of HR 2679, is marking time in the Senate Judiciary Committee. The Chairman, Senator Arlen Specter, may be contacted through the Senate link, below, or by fax at his Harrisburg, PA, office (717) 782-3951


On September 26, 2006, Vote No. 480, was done in the US House of Representatives re HR 2679, The Veterans' Memorial, Boy Scouts, Public Seals and Other Public Expression of Religion Protection Act of 2006. The bill will not abolish the so called seperation between church and state. What it will do is stop taxpayers from having to fund lawsuits with which they do not agree. The votes were Yea - 244; Nay - 173; Not Voting - 9. The Indiana Representatives voted Yea, except Representatives Carson and Visclosky. If your representative voted as you wished, an attaboy is appropriate. Just Modify
