For those who would like to see Sarah Palin speak:
Greetings from FRC!
We
wanted to share with you, our supporters, the following alert from your
state Family Policy Council. If you have already received this message
from them, please simply disregard this. We did, however, want to help
make certain that you, your friends, and your neighbors would be aware
of this very critical legislative information. We encourage you to join
your Family Policy Council in making your voice heard today!
Please
join Governor SARAH PALIN & nationally known conservative STAR
PARKER Thursday, August 27th 7:30pm at Change Point Church Anchorage
The
Alaskans for Parental Rights campaign was developed to return to
parents the right to oversee abortion decisions their underage teenage
daughters might be unfortunately considering. Because of an out of
touch Alaska Supreme Court and a legislature that has been unable to
vote on the issue, Alaska is currently one of only 10 states without a
parental notification law on the books. In November of 2007, the Alaska
Supreme Court ruled that a state law the legislature overwhelmingly
passed back in 1997 allowing parents the right to agree or deny
abortions their minor teenager daughters might be considering was
unconstitutional. Despite parents having to provide consent for ear
piercings, tattoos, field trips and even obtaining a simple aspirin in
school, children in Alaska can now have abortions without the consent,
guidance or even knowledge of their parents.
The goal of the
Alaskans for Parental Rights campaign is to obtain at least 32,734
signatures statewide to bring this issue back to the people on the 2010
August Primary Election.
Please join other pro-family,
parental rights supporters for a public signing event where Governor
Palin will officially become the first petition signer. Star Parker
will provide a national perspective on the parental notification issue.
Come and join the celebration and to sign the petition yourself!
The
Alaskans for Parental Rights Campaign is a project of Alaska Family
Action, the 501(c)4 lobbying arm of Alaska Family Council. For more

Thank
you for joining this collaborative effort to protect and defend Faith,
Family, and Freedom in your state! Sincerely, Tony Perkins, President
