TCC
Staff Deliver CRA Petitions to the White House |
February 8, 2006
Hon. George W.
Bush
President of the United States
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20050
Dear Mr.
President:
Accompanying
this letter are 20,300 petitions from members and supporters of The
Conservative Caucus asking you to support the Constitution Restoration
Act (CRA) (H.R. 1070 and S. 520).
These 20,300
petitions supplement the 30,000 which were delivered to you
previously.
Anti-Christian
judicial tyranny has become one of the major threats to our liberties
and to the continuation of Constitutional government. The persecution
of former Alabama Chief Justice Moore is a leading example of the
bigotry manifested by some Federal judges.
It is essential
that men such as Roy Moore be protected from Federal judges who abuse
their authority by ignoring the plain language of the Constitution. A
Federal judge’s order for the removal of the Ten Commandments
monument from the Alabama Judicial Building was a violation of the
Constitution, and of the Constitutional requirement for judicial
"good behavior".
Therefore, to
prevent similar abuses in the future, I am asking you to support the
Constitution Restoration Act (CRA).
I hope that you
will endorse the CRA and make it a priority for your second term.
Respectfully,
Howard Phillips
Chairman

"Social
Security for Americans Only" Petitions at Rep. McCrery's
Office |
February 9, 2006
Hon. James
McCrery
Chairman
Subcommittee on Social Security
Committee on Ways and Means
U.S. House of Representatives
316 Rayburn House Office Building
Washington, D.C. 20515
Dear Chairman
McCrery:
During the past
two years, The Conservative Caucus has delivered to the subcommittee a
total of 71,500 petitions supporting H.R. 489, the legislation
introduced by U.S. Representative Ron Paul to protect Social Security
funds from being drained by non-citizens.
Accompanying
this letter are an additional 44,400 petitions supporting Congressman
Paul’s bill, now reintroduced as H.R. 858, the Social Security for
Americans Only Act.
The proposed
agreement with Mexico would endanger the already doubtful solvency of
Social Security. Given that Social Security is not an insurance
system, but rather a government benefits program, there is no reason
to continue allowing non-citizens to retain eligibility. This is
especially true of those who have been in the United States illegally.
I appreciate
your consideration and look forward to hearing of the action you
decide to take.
Respectfully,
Howard Phillips
Chairman

"Repeal
the Clinton Social Security Tax Hike" Petitions arrive at
Speaker Hastert's Office |
February 8, 2006
Hon. Dennis
Hastert
Speaker
U.S. House of Representatives
U.S. Capitol, H-232
Washington, D.C. 20151
Dear Mr.
Speaker:
Accompanying
this letter are petitions from 34,000 members and supporters of The
Conservative Caucus, calling for repeal of Bill Clinton’s 1993 tax
increase on Social Security benefits.
This tax
unfairly singles out one segment of our population for an increased
tax burden. Moreover, it involves triple taxation on those who, along
with their employers, have already been taxed to subsidize their
Social Security benefits through a lifetime of FICA payments.
This scheme of
taxation should be overturned. The Senate finally voted to do so last
year. The House previously voted for repeal in 1995 and 2000. It is
time to finish the job.
I hope you will
make repeal of this unfair Clinton tax a priority this year.
Respectfully,
Howard Phillips
Chairman
