What can you do to help-HJR-42.
I have many people asking how they can help the movement. My answer is normally do what you can do as long as it’s taking action. A little while back I posted a blog about a show topic on Get Your Justice Live about the Parental Rights Amendment. US Rep Pete Hoekstra talked with Lary Holland (Host and Producer of Get Your Justice Live) about the Amendment and what we as concerned citizens can do to help.
We were asked to call our local representives and congress to show support for the bill. We are up to 71 sponsors and are looking for more. You can keep those calls coming in and let them know we are here and want our voices heard.

It is official, we have a Joint Resolution Number of 42. When speaking to Senators and Representatives you may now refer to the Parental Rights Amendment as House Joint Res. 42 or HJR-42.
Congressman Hoekstra launched a new website in support of Parental Rights:

You might remember, that we have had Congressman Hoekstra, Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum, and Wendy Wright of Concerned Women for America on our show the past several weeks in support of Parental Rights and the now reintroduced Parental Rights Amendment.
In the early rumblings of the reintroduction, you might remember there being only 24 Co Sponsors of the Parental Rights Amendment. Through a joint effort of several organizations we were able to increase co sponsorship to 71 total Sponsors in the House of Representatives. It is important to note that campaigns are mounting for increased Senate Participation and will be starting in the coming weeks. Want to help?
Listen to ! the show ! You can visit the website and hear all the shows or visit the link below to hear Congressman Hoekstra directly.
The language is simple: “The liberty of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children is a fundamental right.” The Congressman demonstrated clear examples of where parents make a better caregiver than the government. Congressman Hoekstra further said that one of the causes of the erosion of our parental rights is government growth, “Men of zeal who lack understanding, ” people that basically mean well but who lack understanding. It is imperative that we protect our parental rights from both domestic and international government intrusions, but that means discussing our concerns consistently with our government officials.
“Parental Rights should be respected and protected by all.” -Lary Holland (2008)
Thank you so much for supporting America’s families!!
Thank you, about time someone thinks about our families and children, these Dems and Reps dotn think of anything eles but lying and taking your hard earned money for their benefit, pres Obama dont seem to be confused about the situation and has his finger in his nose.
It would be nice if we could e-mail this info to our friends. Maybe you have nothing to do with it. Thanks for you and Michael taking the bull by horns and trying to protect our family lives, and that we were made aware.
By legislating Parental Rights you are assuming it is a governmental right, as opposed to an inaliable right. Why would anyone wish to invite the government into their living room? Slippery Slope, in my opinion. HJR 42 is not only unnecessary, it sets a dangerous precedent in voluntarily abbrogating our rights to to government. Think for yourselves; read the actual wording and then follow your heart, not an email.
