Grassroots Action Alert
February 7, 2012

In This Issue:

1. English should be our official language
2. America, home of the entitlements

3. Who and what is the Tea Party?

1. Make English the official language of the U.S.

It’s time the United States declared English as our official language.

That is the sentiment of more than one hundred lawmakers who have added their names as co-sponsors to the “English Language Unity Act of 2011” (H.R. 997), introduced by Rep. Steve King (R-IA).

In addition to becoming the official language of the U.S., the legislation would also “establish a uniform English language rule for naturalization.

Many Democrats believe this latest effort is little more than a political effort designed to paint President Obama in a bad light since he voted against a similar measure when he was a Senator.

Three years ago, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) referred to a nearly identical bill as “racist.”

The Leftists, who are running this country and trying desperately to re-shape our nation into something our forefathers wouldn’t even recognize, need to be painted in a negative light.

Though our nation was indeed built on the backs of hard working immigrants who spoke dozens of different languages and dialects, they all knew the importance and necessity of learning the English language as a unifying measure, a sign of assimilation and belonging.

That is missing today, and our nation suffers because of it.

ACTION: Several previous efforts to establish English as our official language have all failed. However, now the climate is right for this legislation to pass. Grassfire Nation is calling on tens of thousands of grassroots citizens to sign the petition supporting English as our official language. These petitions will be hand delivered to Rep. King and key leadership on Capitol Hill. Click here to show your support of this important national initiative.


2. America, home of the entitlements

Barack Obama has increased direct government payments to individuals by more than 90% since he took office. Today, nearly half of all Americans are receiving direct payments from the government. And the number of people receiving Food Stamps has increased by more than 40 percent.

Are we becoming a nation of people dependent on the government for sustenance? Has the “land of the free” become the “home of the entitlements”? Liberty News Network’s Michael Becker examines the raw government data and social policies, removes the spin and uncovers the truth in his special report: “America, home of the entitlements.”


3. Who and what is the Tea Party?

The Tea Party movement has been maligned by the mainstream media, vilified by liberal organizations and blamed by politicians for overrunning the nation’s political dialogue.

On the flip side, there are “many groups and organizations working night and day to capture the heart, minds, and support of the Tea Party” according to Darla Dawald, National Director for the Patriot Action Network, and Tea Party activist from the onset of the movement.

How did a grassroots movement of people grow so rapidly and become so polarizing?

In a special expose’ of the Tea Party movement, Darla answers what “Inquiring minds want to know: Who and what is the Tea Party?”
