Janet Porter is the President and Founder of Faith2Action. She reports from the front lines of the culture war on her nationally syndicated radio program, Faith2Action, heard daily at 1pm Central Time on the VCY America network.
Vic and Janet began by discussing the possible fallout due to the signing of hate crimes legislation by President Obama, a signing that took place just minutes before this program went on the air.
The main thrust of the program dealt with an idea birthed by Janet--an idea that may be causing legislators on Capitol Hill to rethink how they view new pieces of legislation, as well as the input of their constituents. The Pink Slip Campaign gives citizens an opportunity to send pink slips to legislators in the House and Senate to let them know that they could be back home, working in the private sector, as early as 2010 if they vote for increased taxes, socialized health care, hate crimes legislation or cap and trade.
And as was mentioned, the Hate Crimes bill indeed was passed and signed into law today as part of the Defense Authorization bill.

Let your U.S. Senators and Representatives know that they work for you, and not the other way around!
If you do not like the kind of legislation that is being passed by Congress, let them know that you may send them a "pink slip" at the next election. That is the way to "fire" those who do not represent our views.
There is an easy and cost-effective way to send such a message to all 535 members in Congress. Over four million "pink slips" have been sent, personally addressed to each Senator or Representative, and "signed" by a U.S. Citizen sending the message.
Send pink slips to legislators in the House and Senate to let them know that they could be back home, working in the private sector, as early as 2010 if they vote for increased taxes, socialized health care, hate crimes legislation or cap and trade.
