******* REVIVAL FIRE!!! *******

 | Dear Everyone Revival Fire,
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her liberal allies think they can shelf your First Amendment rights.
They are wrong. And it's time we raised our voices in protest.
Right now, the so-called "Fairness Doctrine" is threatening a comeback in Congress. It is nothing more than a bold-faced liberal assault on conservative, religious viewpoints - one that could strip broadcasters of their free speech rights. The ACLJ is standing in strong opposition to this unconstitutional legislation - and in support of the Broadcaster Freedom Act.
I have added my name to the ACLJ's online PETITION OF PROTEST, and I invite you to do so the same. The email below from the ACLJ has more information....
----------------
Today, the liberal assault on your First Amendment rights has been vigorously resurrected ...
... and we now face the very real prospect of Christian and conservative broadcasters being tragically silenced.
We do not take this assault lightly - and we will meet it head-on with the force of our own convictions.
You can help, too. Your signature on our online PETITION OF PROTEST against the Fairness Doctrine and in support of the Broadcaster Freedom Act represents our single best opportunity to succeed.
Here's why: The Broadcaster Freedom Act must pass Congress in order to protect the free speech of Christian and conservative broadcasters.
But there are those in Congress who wish to silence the conservative point of view. Led by Speaker Pelosi, they have stalled the bill in committee - hoping to reinstate the so-called "Fairness Doctrine" unchallenged.
The Fairness Doctrine seems aptly named. It sounds appealing. But it's nothing more than a political trap ...
... Unabashedly aimed at establishing left-wing liberalism as the law of the land.
Broadcasters would be virtually forced to drop all controversial or religious programming rather than deal with trying to strike an "even balance" at their own expense.
As of right now, Congressmen Mike Pence and Greg Walden have collected 195 of the 218 signatures required for a "discharge petition" - to end the stonewalling and force this bill to the floor of the House for a vote.
Exercise your rights as a concerned citizen! Join the ACLJ and Congressmen Pence and Walton in calling on Congress to vote, YEA OR NAY, on this bill by adding your name to our nationwide PETITION OF PROTEST campaign.
HOWEVER, THIS LEGISLATION IS ON A VERY SHORT FUSE. WE MUST ACT NOW.
We need all 218 signatures on the discharge petition by July 4th for there to be action on the Broadcaster Freedom Act during the 110th Congress. After that, the election campaign season will be in full swing, and a significant bill of this nature is not likely to be passed.
So I urge you to sign the online PETITION OF PROTEST to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and your U.S. Representative right now and stand with the ACLJ in support of free speech for Christian and conservative broadcasters.
Thank you in advance for participating personally in this effort, and in all the ongoing work of the ACLJ for the causes of life and liberty.
