<p>State Representative <strong>David Welter</strong> (R-75th Dist.) is promoting some <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Welter.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">town hall meetings</a> next week in Morris, Plano, Wilmington, and Seneca so that he can &#8220;listen to your feedback, your questions, and concerns.&#8221; We thought you, a conservative pro-family voter in this district, should know how your local state representative has been voting in Springfield.</p>
<p>For a number of important reasons, we believe your local official, Rep. Welter, has failed us. (<a href="https://illinoisfamily.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Welter.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">See this flyer for more information</a>.)&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/08/state-rep-david-welter-needs-to-hear-from-you/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Laurie Higgins</strong> and <strong>John Biver</strong> join this week&#8217;s podcast with David Smith. They discuss the ongoing push in Springfield to pass a bill which would celebrate the LGBT movement in school curricula K-12, the Delaware proposal where students &#8220;may self-identify their race or gender identity at school, and, there will be no requirement that parents be notified if the child communicates to the school that their parent would be not supportive.&#8221;</p>
<p>They also discuss the champion female wrestler in Texas who is transitioning to a male taking cross sex hormones and steroids, and the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment).&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/podcast/wait-till-you-see-what-lgbtqqap-activists-have-planned-for-illinois-schools-illinois-family-spotlight-084/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by Kathy Valente</em></p>
<div>
<p>Last week the Illinois Senate voted <a href="http://illinoisfamily.org/110files/uploads/2014/05/ERA-Senate-Vote.pdf" target="_blank"><span>39 to 11</span></a> to pass <a href="http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/98/SJRCA/PDF/09800SC0075lv.pdf" target="_blank">SJRCA 75</a>, the dangerous Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), the effort to amend the U.S. Constitution to say: “Equality of rights under law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State on account of sex.”</p>
<p>This legislation is now in the Illinois House for consideration and debate.  State Representative <strong>Lou Lang</strong> (D-Skokie) is the chief sponsor.  </p></div>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2014/05/nine-reasons-to-reject-equal-rights-amendment/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>
