ACLU Funding Threatened
From StoptheACLU:
An Indiana congressman plans to curb the ACLU’s appetite for filing suits targeting religion in the public square by introducing a bill that denies plaintiff attorneys the right to collect attorneys fees in such cases.
Rep. John Hostettler, R-Ind., is expected to file his measure next week to amend the Civil Rights Attorney’s Fees Act of 1976, 42 U.S.C. Section 1988, to prohibit prevailing parties from being awarded attorneys fee in religious establishment cases, but not in other civil rights filings. http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=44155
See my post! http://stoptheaclu.blogspot.com/2005/05/bill-to-take-profit-out-of-anti.html Tell everyone to contact their reps and senators and voice their support!
And sign the petition to get the ACLU off the taxpayer’s dole! http://www.grassfire.net/33/petition.asp
Thanks!
