We found more egregious [very bad] abuses . . .
Mat Staver
Federally funded Critical Race Theory? State-paid journalists?
The more we investigate the so-called "Build Back Better" (BBB) bill and budget reconciliation efforts on Capitol Hill, the more egregious abuses and sinister attacks on freedom we find.
The Republican Study Committee said this budget effort "KEEPS GETTING WORSE."
I'll explain below how our government is using this bill to increase abortion funding and so much more. The first budget reconciliation vote might happen this week! Our senators need to hear from you immediately. Since this is a budget-related bill, it only needs 51 votes to pass! EVERY VOTE MATTERS!
We have a short time to kill this bill in the Senate. Send your urgent faxes to senators to stop this radical takeover of our nation.— Mat

This BBB bill gives 500 million dollars to medical schools that prioritize funding for racial demographics! It offers your tax dollars to schools that recruit students, and hire faculty, based on racial and demographic characteristics!
The bill will limit opportunities because of race. And the government is using your tax dollars to reward schools that judge by the color of the skin instead of the content of the character!
Continuing to divide on race, the BBB contains language that portrays Americans as racist and oppressive. It continues race-baiting by claiming all minorities are "denied a full opportunity" to participate in American life. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas would bristle at the notion that he was incapable of hard work and success.
The BBB includes a school lunch agenda of 250 million dollars for, among other things, "procuring ... culturally appropriate foods." The Food Group defines "culturally appropriate foods" to include: goat, venison, sardines, eggplant, tofu, lentils, cassava (yuca root), teff (African grass seed), bison, hominy, kasha, and the list goes on ...
I can only imagine what percentage will go straight to the lunchroom trash! But much more dangerous is how our government is singling out certain races and ethnicities for preferential treatment. This encourages the separation of students by their backgrounds and rewards non-American special interests.
This is the exact opposite of what American values were built upon. While we are diverse, we have a core unity—especially so since we are all created in the image of God. Constantly pushing racial division, however, is destructive. This bill must be stopped now. Make your voice heard by the senators with your critical faxes today.

Democrats hope to subsidize our "fake news" media system with, essentially, kickbacks to news outlets. Under BBB, local news outlets struggling with credibility, and thus lost readership and advertising revenue, can apply for up to 12,500 dollars in a tax credit. In other words, this would help the struggling liberal media whose audience is shrinking.
Our government is abandoning the idea of a free press. Rather than letting the free market weed out fake news and lying journalists, the BBB will subsidize them with federal dollars.
Welcome to government-run media!
At the same time, this legislation specifically excludes any "disqualified organization" with a definition that fits Liberty Counsel Action and similar organizations.
Between fake media and Big Tech censorship, our media has fallen from being the "Fourth Branch" of governance to merely being a tool wielded by people who hate America and want to see it transformed into a socialist country.
If BBB proponents have their way, they will use this bill to crush freedom and truth. Help us STOP the BBB and DOUBLE your gift through our Challenge Grant.
This bill will also demand direct funding for abortions.
It will subsidize insurance plans that pay for abortions and open up additional paths for your tax dollars to pay for pro-abortion facilities.
This additional funding will end the lives of more innocent children. This is unconscionable!
We can STOP this bill. The choice is ours. I believe we can hold all the Republicans in opposition and get at least one Democratic senator to say NO! Send your urgent faxes today.

Our staff in D.C. are working with key members of the Senate to block the BBB bill. Thanks to your prayers and support, we are your voice in the nation's capital.

Together we can restore our nation.
Sincerely,
Mat Staver, Chairman
