Pastors Could Face Jail for Preaching the Truth

Next Wednesday, April 22, a hate crimes bill called the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, H.R. 1913, will be voted on by the full U.S. House Judiciary Committee. Having been previously defeated, it was renamed and quietly reintroduced by Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) and Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL).
It is imperative that we contact all members of the House and demand that they vote against this bill as it will not protect a pastor, Bible teacher, Sunday School teacher, youth leader or anyone else from prosecution if he or she teaches against homosexuality if an individual who hears their message then goes out and commits a crime against a homosexual.. The pastor or teacher could face prosecution for using "hate speech" and "conspiracy to commit a hate crime."
Select here to send a fax to every Congressman expressing your opposition to this bill and demanding that they protect your First Amendment right to free speech by voting against H.R. 1913 next Wednesday. The defeat of this bill will also protect Pastors from potential prosecution for preaching the truth.
Select here to send a fax to every member of the House of Representatives.
