Attend this if you can.  This is the same resolution that was supported by the LPM at our convention in May:  ( http://www.michiganlp.org/Lists/PressReleases/DispForm.aspx?ID=87&Source=http://www.michiganlp.org/Lists/PressReleases/AllItems.aspx )

To Our Patriot Friends;

Campaign for Liberty has been notified by Michigan State Senator Bruce Patterson that his legislation, SCR 004 / SR 17, Michigan Sovereignty Under the 10th Amendment is scheduled
for hearing in the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday, August 18, 1:00, Rm 210 Farnum Bldg.

A copy of the resolution is attached ( http://www.michiganlp.org/Shared%20Documents/2009-SICR-0004.pdf ).  C4L has been diligently working with Senator Patterson, collecting petitions, making phone calls, etc. in an effort to bring this legislation out of committee, and get it to the Senate floor for debate.  We have pledged to "fill the room" when the Committee meets on it.

 

If you are able to travel to Lansing on this date, please join us for this most important hearing.

Attendees are asked to wear appropriate business attire, remain respectful at all times, and do not disrupt or act in a fashion unbecoming a thoughtful citizen (no signs).  Our group will gather at the statue in front of the Capitol Building between noon-12:30, and will proceed to the hearing at 12:45  If you have petitions that need to be turned in, please bring them with you.  If you want to double-check the status of the meeting before leaving home, please call Senator Patterson's intern Scott at 517 373-1606.

 

Those of you who are unable to attend can also do your share.  Please call one, two, or all of the Judiciary Committee members, and ask them to support this critical legislation.
With all the new Federal legislative mandates and regulations coming out of Washington, it is more important than ever that we never forget that Michigan is a sovereign state, and we are its sovereign citizens.
