OPEN LETTER TO THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS

Although many members of the U.S. House of Representations and many members of the U.S. Senate proudly listen to their constituency after they are elected to Congress, there are still individuals who have their own agenda and their own priorities that are inconsistent with their constituency. In order to obtain plausible solutions or remedies to the many challenges that are facing our Nation today, some issues are resolved on a bipartisan basis giving us the balance that we expect from representative elected officials in a Republic.

There will always be one issue that will stand out in the minds of the grassroots population in the United States. That one issue is the CIVIL RIGHTS OF THE UNBORN, which has been breached by a Supreme Court decision in 1973. For over 36 years, this CIVIL RIGHTS issue has been a stumbling block for many Senators and Representatives who usually express their answers with: "Although personally I oppose the taking of the life of an unborn baby by legal abortion in the United States, I will not impose my "religious beliefs" on others. I believe in the right for women to choose." Although this sounds innocent enough, the fact of the matter is that in every elective abortion performed in the United States of America A BABY IS KILLED. ABORTION KILLS BABIES, who could have been the answer to the many challenges that we are facing today as a result of our greed, selfish ambitions, unethical behaviors, and criminal activity.

The time has come to resolve this issue as a CIVIL RIGHTS ISSUE. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 included civil rights violations on age, gender, residency, race, and many other infringement of respect for human life in general. This Country took over 100 years to resolve the CIVIL RIGHTS ISSUE that Black people were FREE TO BE HUMAN BEINGS in all parts of the United States of America. The issue of race has progressed, but there are many instances where the attitudes have not changed even though the legal issue has been changed. The letter of the law was adopted, but the ethical and attitudinal issues have yet to be completely resolved. With a diverse ethnic population in the United States, we are learning to understand better the differences that have separated us as a United Country, but we have a long way to go to resolve the RESPECT that needs to be accomplished on a day to day basis with interpersonal relationships. Allow all Americans to climb their Ladder of Achievement to reach their unique, self-actualization with their aptitudes, interests, talents, and special gifts.

As a United States Citizen, I oppose any adoption of the FREEDOM OF CHOICE ACT which is currently being discussed in Congress. Using Party Affiliation as a justification for imposing this F.O.C.A. on the American Public is a sham and an embarrassment to the rest of the world. What we hold true is the freedom of all United States citizens and green card-carrying immigrants who expect RESPECT FOR THEIR CULTURAL DIVERSITY in age, race, gender, national original, and religious persuasion. LET US SEE REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS WHO REALLY CARE ABOUT OUR AMERICAN PEOPLE BY STANDING FIRM ON THE CIVIL RIGHTS OF ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS (UNBORN AND BORN). We once again are looking for PUBLIC OFFICIALS WHO HAVE COURAGE ENOUGH TO RESPECT THE DIGNITY OF THE HUMAN PERSON AT EVERY STAGE OF HUMAN DEVELOPMENT. The life you save may be your own.

In addition, we ask the elected officials of our wonderful country to avoid being politically correct, whatever that might mean. We are not hyphenated Americans. WE ARE AMERICANS with a diverse cultural heritage and nationality base. When we hyphenate Americans, we are DIVIDING AMERICANS and creating a DIVIDED STATES OF AMERICA instead of a UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. E PLURIBUS UNUM means just that...even with many WE ARE ONE! ALSO, WE STILL BELIEVE AS OUR FOUNDING FOUNDERS that our country has a Declaration of Independence and a U.S. Constitution that will guide us as long as we recognize THE CREATOR of all HUMAN LIFE..."we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights...that among these are LIFE, LIBERTY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS."

Remember to cast your vote with your conscience when you recognize the value and the dignity of each unique human being . Human life is a continuum from natural conception to natural death. Remember to CHOOSE LIFE..NOT DEATH!
