Congressional Open Letter: PPP Bankrupt!!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
NAME AND ADDRESS REDACTED
US Representative Josh Gottheimer
Newton District Office
93 Spring Street, Suite 408
Newton, NJ 07860
April 20, 2020
Dear Congressman Gotheimer:
I received your response email to my most recent letter and am beyond shocked at your lack of care and concern to address the base issue put forth in my letter. As usual, you have ignored the main concern and slid right back into your own selfish agendas with side notes on how wonderful you are. I know about the Cares Act and the money that has already been allotted for individual Americans etc. I’m aware of the difficulties with the economy, how hard you’re working to correct certain problems and the overall concerns of the virus. I want to thank you for all of that. I know you’ve been working hard to help this situation but honestly, you’re not hitting the nail on the head. That’s not what I was addressing and you know it!
I implore you and your colleagues in Congress to stop using the virus as a step off platform to get other things passed that are NOT essential! Come on!
You elitists have no idea how the majority of Americans live financially. You’re in your own little private world of insensitivity. Step out of your safety net and try; just try to imagine not knowing where your next meal is coming from because you have no job, no business to run and a family of four to feed! Then try to imagine that there’s little hope on the horizon from the people you’ve HIRED to step up to the plate and help you in just this kind of emergency!
Your response is nonsense! You are explaining to me what congress did but you left out that the PPP is out of money. (Paycheck Protection Program for those who don’t know who read this on the website or in the paper)
You and your party led by The Honorable Nancy Pelosi refused to increase the fund for small business. Shame on you and shame on your Leader!! Disgraceful is not a strong enough word. And please stop showing off your mansions and refrigerators full of food on national TV when so many in our country are going to bed hungry. I speak of your friend, Nancy Pelosi on the news. Sickening and it sure screams selfish and insensitive. Are you all that ignorant of what’s really going on here? If not then take a stand against this lack of common sense. PLEASE!
Why don’t you and all of Congress and the US Senate give up your pay until the last COVID-19 case is gone? I am serious! Come down off your high horse and have some compassion – REAL compassion! What’s the old saying? Put your money where your mouth is!
You’ve become so uncompromising over the past several years and that’s awful on its own; but to be so stubborn and insensitive to the needs of the American people during a very serious potentially life threatening pandemic is disgusting!! There’s very little respect left for you!
Very Truly Yours,
xxxx

Reader’s note
Very well put, sadly it has fallen on deaf ears! They are so caught up with trying to stay in power they could not give a good crap what truly is happening. Millions have been spent/promised to non essential expenditures and that includes there salaries.
Vote the whole lot out of office, term limits! Never happen Washington is run by lawyers that could not make a living in there own business and now they are running the PIGGEY bank for there own enrichment under the guise of representing the people that gave them there job.
ACLJ Letter: Gone!
Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib wants to wipe Israel off the map.
Israel is being threatened from all sides, and we’re taking action. Today.
In a social media post promoting an anti-Semitic author, Rep. Tlaib was shown wearing a T-shirt that literally ERASED Israel from the map – and replaced it with “Palestine.” No more Jewish State of Israel. Gone.
Now the Prosecutor for the International Criminal Court (ICC) is trying to essentially do the same thing – declare parts of Israel as Palestine. And today we’re filing at the ICC to defend Israel’s interests.
Like Rep. Tlaib, the ICC Prosecutor is trying to reclassify land that rightfully belongs to Israel and designate it to a nonexistent “Palestinian State,” thereby giving the ICC territorial authority to investigate Israelis for alleged “war crimes.”
The ICC Prosecutor is asking ICC judges to trample Israel’s sovereign borders – sidestepping international law and the recognized peace process.
The global attempts to target, undermine, and eventually erase Israel from existence must be stopped.
Today, we are filing a critical brief at the ICC defending Israel’s interests against this anti-Semitic lawfare. But Israel needs your support now.
Each of our legal battles requires immense resources. Right now, your Tax-Deductible gift to support our legal efforts in defense of Israel’s interests will be DOUBLED. $5 becomes $10; $20 becomes $40.
Have Your Gift Doubled to Defend Israel Before Our Deadline.

ACLJ Letter: Pelosi Weaponizing Coronavirus for Planned Parenthood
In breaking news, Speaker Nancy Pelosi is weaponizing the Coronavirus crisis to fund the abortion agenda.
This is demonic.
Right now, the vital funding package needed to address the Coronavirus is being held up by Speaker Pelosi and the extreme pro-abortion Left because they are demanding abortion funding in the bill.
This is literally worshiping at the altar of abortion.
Speaker Pelosi says the bill is about “testing,” “it’s about seniors and people with disabilities.” But she is hiding something horrific.
Speaker Pelosi tried to slip funding for Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry into the Coronavirus (COVID-19) funding bill – trying to circumvent federal law that specifically prohibits direct funding for abortion. We’re talking about a billion dollars in taxpayer funding for abortion under the guise of addressing the Coronavirus.
She was caught, and we’re fighting back. We’re demanding Congress remove this abortion language. Do your job to protect America from this national emergency. Abortion has NO PLACE in funding to combat the virus.
But we need Congress to hear from you TODAY. This is urgent.
Sign Our NEW Petition: No Abortion Funding in COVID-19 Bill.

ACLJ Letter: SCOTUS Abortion Mandate Case
NO ONE should be forced to participate in a system that uses their money to pay for or facilitate abortions. Period.
But that is what’s happening, and we’re taking action at the Supreme Court in just 3 days.
The Supreme Court has just agreed to once again decide if ObamaCare is constitutional. But first, it is taking up a case to determine the fate of the abortion-pill mandate once and for all.
We all thought this issue was finally resolved. We filed briefs to defeat the abortion-pill mandate at the Supreme Court – and we were winning. We also filed official public comments urging the Trump Administration to implement a new rule providing religious and moral protections against the abortion-pill mandate. And we won there too.
But two pro-abortion-run states filed lawsuits to keep forcing Americans to facilitate the provision of abortion pills anyway. Now that case is at the Supreme Court.
In just 3 days, we are filing our most important amicus brief to defeat the abortion-pill mandate’s assault on religious liberty. This is it. This is the moment, and we need your voice before our Supreme Court deadline.
Sign Our SCOTUS Brief: Defeat the Abortion-Pill Mandate.

ACLJ Letter: Stunning Rebuke!
Today is a major oral argument in the biggest abortion case of the current Supreme Court.
We also face our toughest challenge yet. If we don’t act now, a vital pro-life law could be ABOLISHED and hundreds of others with it.
Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry are doing anything they can to strike down every pro-life law in the nation. But a federal appeals court just dealt them a major setback, defunding millions of their taxpayer dollars. It’s a stunning rebuke.
We’ve been aggressively supporting each of these efforts that are proving to be extremely effective in defeating the abortion industry and saving countless babies.
TODAY the high Court is hearing oral arguments in a case in which we filed a major amicus brief at the Supreme Court to defeat the lie that abortion is safe.
Each of our monumental cases against the taxpayer-funded abortion industry requires considerable resources. We urgently need your vital support through our Matching Challenge.
TODAY your Tax-Deductible gift will be DOUBLED, dollar-for-dollar. $5 becomes $10; $20 becomes $40 to defeat the abortion industry.
Have Your Gift Doubled Now by the Supreme Court Deadline.

ACLJ Letter: Update on Army Bible Verse Ban
We’re taking urgent action to defend the religious liberty of our brave soldiers TODAY.
Our troops are in the line of fire every day. They put their lives on the line to defend our freedoms.
Some have chosen to wear dog tags engraved with Bible verses such as Psalm 27:3 (“Though my enemies attack me, I will not fear . . . .”) or Joshua 1:9 (“Be strong and courageous . . . the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”). And, proud as they are of their Branch of Service, they want to wear dog tags with both their Service emblem and their choice of Bible verse.
An anti-Christian group demanded that the military ban Bible verses on dog tags that include military insignias. That group claims mixing the two violates the Establishment Clause. This is absolute nonsense.
Under pressure, the Army conceded, ordering an equipment supplier to strip “ALL biblical references” from dog tags and other military gear.
It’s an insult to our troops. We must defend those who defend us.
We’re fighting to have this ridiculous order rescinded.
TODAY, we are delivering our second Freedom of Information Act request – this time directly to the Army – to find out exactly who is behind this ban.
Our soldiers lay their lives on the line for our freedom. They have the right to carry their faith close to their hearts.
ACLJ Letter: PP War Chest & NY Deadline
March 2, 2020
Planned Parenthood has just set aside tens of millions of dollars to defeat the pro-life agenda nationwide.
Today is a major deadline as we fight back against the abortion industry.
Planned Parenthood is prepared to spend its record abortion profits and exorbitant taxpayer funding to defeat all of us. In fact, its latest report shows that while the abortion rate is at record lows nationwide, Planned Parenthood committed more abortions in the last year than ever before – 345,672.
But as outrageous as this is, it gets worse.
A California jury has awarded Planned Parenthood millions more from pro-life advocates for exposing the harvesting and selling of aborted babies’ body parts.
We’re preparing an appeal to have this injustice OVERTURNED. Tomorrow is a critical deadline in a related case against the abortion industry.
And TODAY is a major deadline in another critical case defending pro-life pregnancy centers in New York City, located in the same State that passed the most expansive and barbaric abortion bill just last year.
Today we are also launching our March Matching Challenge. Any gift you give today will be DOUBLED to defend life and defeat the abortion industry. But to win, we urgently need your Tax-Deductible support. $5 becomes $10; $20 becomes $40.
Have Your Gift Doubled to Defeat the Abortion Industry Today.

ACLJ Letter: Another Deep State Actor Exposed
A major Deep State actor has just been EXPOSED.
We’ve told you how the Deep State and the Left are willing to do anything to undermine the President and the conservative agenda – even if it means trampling on the Constitution.
First it was Crossfire Hurricane, the surreptitious investigation of the President’s campaign, including spying on American citizens. Then it was the bogus Russia collusion probe.
Now the Justice Department’s Inspector General Michael Horowitz has released his report on FBI FISA abuses, and it has documented the FBI’s willful refusal to turn over exculpatory documents.
And the report labeled key FBI counter-intelligence investigator Steven Somma as “Case Agent One” for his part in the Russia collusion hoax.
This is not the first time the Deep State FBI has withheld key documents. It must be held accountable.
For years, we’ve been battling the Deep State’s subversive tactics – from unmasking Americans to placing spies in the White House to intentionally thwarting the law.
We’ve been battling the Deep State FBI, State Department, and intelligence bureaucrats. We know what’s at stake. We just need you.
Sign Our Petition: Expose and Defeat the Deep State.

ACLJ Letter: Senate Votes
Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry are becoming more extreme by the day.
They are trying to defeat EVERY pro-life law and bill nationwide. And now they are trying to even defeat efforts to protect babies who have already been born. Abortion isn’t enough for them. It’s sick.
Tomorrow there are two critical votes scheduled in the U.S. Senate to defend life. One will ban gruesome late-term abortions, when babies can feel the pain of being killed. The other will protect innocent babies born alive from infanticide.
The abortion lobby is demanding Senators vote AGAINST these commonsense protections. That’s how extreme they are.
Right now, we’re aggressively engaged on Capitol Hill urging support for these bills that could save countless babies . At the same time, we’re in federal court in two critical cases against both Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry regarding the harvesting and selling of aborted babies’ body parts.
We’re about to appeal our case against Planned Parenthood to stop an unjust jury award that gave the abortion giant millions of dollars.
As we battle to defeat Planned Parenthood and defend unborn babies in cases across the nation – including on Capitol Hill and at the Supreme Court – we need your support before our deadlines.
