The 2012 Legislative Budget Session will begin on February 13th, 2012 and will move at lightening speed.  With a budget and redistricting taking place this year, there is little time available for non-budget issues.

Below are the questions we ask as an organization in order to determine which bills we will oppose or support.

1. Does it protect or destroy Innocent Life?
2. Does it protect the sanctity of marriage between one man and one woman?
3. Does it protect or destroy parental rights?
4. Does it protect or destroy family values based on Judeo-Christian principles?
5. Does it protect or destroy educational choices or infringe on parental rights to educate their children at home without governmental interference?
6. Does it protect or destroy our Constitutional freedoms?
