"Repeal the Real ID Act" is DownsizeDC.org's oldest active campaign.

That's because REAL ID - which is a de facto national ID card - lays the foundation for a future police state.

That's why so many people have fought against it so hard for so long. And thanks to that resistence REAL ID still hasn't been implimented, six years after it became law! A big part of this is because of your pressure.

And now there's more good news . . .

There's a silver lining in the monstrous, 1,926-page appropriations bill (H.R. 3082). This bill rescinds funding for a REAL ID "hub." The House already passed the bill, and the Senate will consider it as soon as TODAY.

This hub would have created a centralized ID verification system, where states share driver information with each other. Without this hub, REAL ID suffers a fatal blow.

That's why we're asking you to tell Congress to support this cut in REAL ID's budget, and to repeal REAL ID altogether.

You may borrow from or copy this letter . . .

I'm glad that the House is rescinding funding for a REAL ID hub in the H.R. 3082 budget bill. My Senators should ensure that this rescission remains in the bill.

But you should do more. Repeal REAL ID entirely.

* REAL ID assumes I am a foreign terrorist or illegal immigrant, and that I must "prove" my innocence
* I am punished with higher fees, more red tape, and longer DMV lines
* And my private information will be centralized, making me more susceptible to identity theft and other dangers

Furthermore . . .

* The REAL ID law still exists as an unconstitutional, unfunded mandate on the cash-strapped states
* 21 states will still be out of compliance when it is scheduled to take effect in May, 2011 http://www.seattlepi.com/local/431425_realid08.html?source=mypi
* By de-funding the verification hub, there's no longer any point in forcing the states to implement REAL ID

This is America, land of the free. It's not the land of "Your papers, please." Help restore liberty to America and repeal REAL ID.

The candidates are starting to get it. I have heard so many political ads that speak about the Constitution. My hope and prayer is that this is not just campaign rhetoric and these people will actually stick to their word.

RINO's and Liberal Democrats could care less about the Constitution, they have proved that over the last 20 years. But things need to change and Americans want it done right.

Americans do not want health care mandates, they want access to health care without being forced to a system that is more expensive and provides less service and they certainly do not want a panel deciding on what care is best for them based on all their medical history that is in a national database. They want to make that decision with their doctors and family members.

Americans are tired of the back and forth between Republicans and Democrats who look nearly identical in all they do when it comes to overspending and government control of our liberties.

If you haven't considered members of the Constitution Party, you may want to. They have a platform that nearly anyone who calls themselves a member of the Tea Party would be proud.

Get out there and vote but stop putting up with the same incumbents on both sides who refuse to stand up for you, their constituents, the one they are supposed to represent but refuse to do so.

Remember voting for the lessor of two evils is still voting for evil.

Keep an eye on those that do get elected. Make sure that they are doing their jobs of representation and if not, VOTE THEM OUT or RUN Against them.

Americans will speak loud and clear to the RINOS and Obama Democrats tomorrow. Lets hope the message gets through.

STAND UP, SPEAK UP, LIVE FREE!

GOD'S WORD FOR TODAY
Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. Luke 6:28 (KJV)

Quote of the Day: "Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together, yield themselves up when taken little by little." -- Plutarch (c.45-125 A.D.)

There's a good chance we've defeated the cumbersome food safety bill. "The Hill" reports that Congressional leaders pulled the bill even though they had the votes to pass it.

Now why on earth would they do that? It's because . . .

Pressure works!

We and our allies stirred up enough dust to make the politicians nervous about passing this bill before the election. And they'll no longer have the votes once the people fire the Democratic majority. The final danger is that the Dems will try to force it through during a lame-duck session. We'll have to be on guard against that. Meanwhile . . .

We can celebrate another success.

Plus, in other good news . . .

Rand Paul invokes "reading the bills," and "downsizing the government" in his latest TV commercial.

And, I'll be traveling through Florida next week, promoting Downsize DC, and speaking at the NullifyNow conference.

This last item has forced a change in our work schedule. We're going to have to delay, by one week, showing you the new home page for the new website for the Downsize DC Foundation, which is the educational arm of Downsize DC. Meanwhile . . .

There are bills to pay, and we've only sent one fundraising message all month. We got our head above water with the assistance we received in August when we had to shut down for a day, but we want to keep it that way. Today is the first day of October. Can you help close out September by making a contribution, or starting a monthly pledge?

Thanks in advance for your help, and have a good weekend.

The news is coming out, the polls are in OBama sucks and will most likely loose any chance for re-election in 2012 along with the remaining sellout Democrats and Republicans who have out spent all previous administrations combined all the way back top President Washington.

But this news isn't anything knew to the people of America. Obama's lies er rhetoric as he likes to call it have not been forgotten by those who supported him and those who voted for him because they just couldnt stand the last bunch of RINO Republicans controlling the house and senate during the Bush years.

That being said, who cares about Obama at this point? We have to focus on helping those running against incumbents to rid ourselves of those who have defied the will of the people. I have never once in my working history been able to completely ignore the will of my employer and think that I would continue to work for them.

Well the same goes for all branches of the Legislative body. We must focus our attention on those candidates that will stand up to their oath of office and preserve, protect and defend the Constitution and our liberties.

Most Americans just want to live their lives and be left alone to raise their families as they so choose. They don't want to be told they must buy health care or partake in ObamaCare, they are tired of bailing out big banks and corporations like GM and they are sick of all the taxes and other regulations that prevent them from the pursuit of happiness.

Americans do not want to be spied upon by their own government under the guise of protection as though they are some type of criminal. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

They also do not want any form of national ID Card ie Real ID, Pass ID or the like. They want to be able to Live Free.

In order to do this Americans must unite in one voice and say "Enough Already!" and vote the collective bums out of office.

Stand Up, Speak up, & Live Free!

GOD'S WORD FOR TODAY
Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. Matthew 12:33 (KJV)
