HR 1207 – Audit the Fed – now has 290 cosponsors
Sep 17, 2009 Campaign for Liberty, Federal Reserve, Ron Paul, constitution, economy, financial, news, politics
HR 1207 now having 290 cosponsors is a significant number because now two thirds of the house of representatives is cosponsoring the bill, which means that now the bill is eligible for consideration under suspension of house rules. What that means is that the bill can be expedited through the house, by means of being considered “under suspension”, allowing a two-thirds vote for final passage and limiting floor debate and prohibiting floor amendments. By prohibiting floor amendments, the house votes on the bill as amended, which is what Ron Paul and his cosponsors want for this bill – HR 1207 needs to stay exactly as it is – short and to the point – without being watered down and made ineffective by the global elite controlled politicians that wish to keep the Federal Reserve exactly where it is today – with a stranglehold on the American people.
This is great news – and if your congressman/woman hasn’t cosponsored HR 1207, ask them to cosponsor it today! Also ask your senators if they will cosponsor S 604!
For reference, the house bill HR 1207 is called the “Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009″ and S 604 is called “Federal Reserve Sunshine Act of 2009″.
FREEDOM!!!!

HR 1207 hearing official! Audit the Fed
Sep 10, 2009 Campaign for Liberty, Ron Paul, constitution, economy, financial, news, politics
Hearings on HR 1207, Ron Paul’s Federal Reserve transparency bill, will be conducted on Friday, September 25th at 9 AM. This is confirmed by Ron Paul, who has confirmed with Barney Frank, the House financial services committee chairman.
Hopefully, HR 1207 will receive a standalone up or down vote on its own merits and will not be tacked onto another bill and watered down. Please contact your representatives and request that they first cosponsor the bill, and if they already have, ask that they support a standalone vote on HR 1207.
Why the not-so-federal reserve has been able to conduct its operations in near total secret to this date is completely beyond me. The American people are ready to find out where all the money has gone. Once they know, they will hopefully realize that the Federal Reserve has never been, and certainly is not now, necessary for the US economy to thrive. Congress should take back the power of money creation from the greedy, power hungry, unconstitutional financial overlord known as the federal reserve. Only then will we have a stable economy and a government that is truly limited in its spending abilities.
Be sure to watch the hearings on Friday, September 25th at 9:00 AM! This is history in the making!

Petition to tell Nancy Pelosi to schedule debate and a roll call vote on HR 1207, the federal reserve transparency act of 2009
May 13, 2009 Campaign for Liberty, Ron Paul, constitution, economy, news, politics
Please go and sign the petition! I can’t stress enough how important it is that this bill, HR 1207, passes. Whether you are liberal or conservative, it doesn’t matter in this issue. We the people need to know what is happening with the money that is being issued because ultimately it hurts us when the federal reserve cranks up the printing presses and devalues our dollar. We the people need to know which foreign governments are receiving aid from us without we the people even knowing. No other bank in the country is immune from being audited, so why is the federal reserve? It is time to unveil this private bank and destroy their shroud of secrecy. Go and sign the petition now!

Peter Schiff for Senate 2010 – money bomb today!
Feb 21, 2009 Campaign for Liberty, Peter Schiff, Ron Paul, news, politics
I would love to see Peter Schiff, renowned Austrian economist and economic adviser to Ron Paul during his 2008 run for President, run for and win a Senate seat. He is running from Connecticut, but Ron Paul supporters (as well as Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr, and even Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney, Dennis Kucinich, Mike Gravel, etc), regardless of where they are from, should support Schiff in his Senate run. I donated; go and do the same!

End the income tax in Massachusetts
Oct 24, 2008 Campaign for Liberty, Ron Paul, economy, politics
from Campaign for Liberty:
Urgent Message to You from Two Strong Ron Paul Supporters
from Carla Howell and Michael Cloud
Dear Fellow Supporters of Ron Paul,Ron Paul campaigned to Repeal the Income Tax – and dramatically shrink the size and power of government. Now you have the opportunity to take the first step to make Ron Paul’s dream a reality – by helping us to repeal the income tax in Massachusetts this November 4th.
We are co-sponsors of Ballot Question 1, the legally-binding ballot measure that will END the Massachusetts state income tax.
Maybe you’ve read articles about our ballot initiative in the ‘Wall Street Journal,’ ‘the New York Times,’ ‘the Boston Globe,’ ‘National Review,’ ‘Reason,’ ‘CATO,’ ‘the National Taxpayers Union,’ or at LewRockwell.com. Or seen us on CNN or Fox News.
Do we really have a reasonable chance to win? Or is this just another fantasy?
Four different polls show us dead even. One poll shows support for ENDing the income tax at 45% — with 45% against. 9% undecided. Two other polls show 45% For and 45% Against – with 10% undecided. One strange poll showed 37% For and 37% Against – with 26% undecided.
This is the second time we’ve put this END the income tax initiative on the ballot. Last time, with a few hundred volunteers – and a total advertising budget of $89,000 – we got 45.3% of the vote. 885,683 votes.
50/50 odds of repealing the state income tax. And a chance of setting in motion a series of state-by-state repeals of income taxes.
Why will Massachusetts voters vote YES – and END the income tax? What are the benefits to them?
1. Our Ballot Initiative will give back over $3,700 each to 3,400,000 Massachusetts workers and taxpayers. $3,700 average. Each worker. Not just once. Every year.
2. It will take $12.6 Billion out of the hands of Massachusetts Big Government – and put it back into the hands of the men and women who earned it. Not just once. Every year.
3. In productive, private hands this $12.6 Billion a year will create hundreds of thousands of new jobs in Massachusetts.
4. This will force the state legislature to streamline and cut the waste out of the Massachusetts state spending.
5. This will force the state legislature to get rid of the failed, flawed government programs that don’t work – and often make things worse.
6. It’ll make the state legislature accountable to Massachusetts workers and taxpayers – instead of the government employees, lobbyists, and special interests who profit from high government spending.
7. With less government and no income tax, Massachusetts will become a magnet to private, productive businesses and individuals. More good jobs and more good workers.
8. And with 3,400,000 Massachusetts taxpayers getting back an average of $3,700 each in their take home paychecks, this just might radically reduce home foreclosures.
Wouldn’t these huge, immediate, direct benefits get you to the polls on November 4th?
But there’s a huge 900 lb gorilla standing between us and victory.
Who? The Teachers Unions.
Massachusetts Teachers Association, S.E.I.U. (the government employees union), AFL-CIO (who get plush government construction pay), and the other unions who get tax-funded jobs.
Union dues have already bankrolled $2,090,100 of the NO on 1 War Chest. That’s 99.93% of the anti tax-cut funding!
In addition, these unions and their allies also reported $443,437 in in-kind donations.
In addition, these unions have mobilized an estimated $1,200,000 worth of paid and unpaid union activists to stop us from ending the income tax.
Plus, with the Massachusetts Teachers Association driving this effort, the unions and their political allies are generating widespread news coverage of Ballot Question 1.
Over 53 newspaper articles and opinion pieces in just the last 10 days!
The unions are very effective. 100% of the newspaper editorials oppose our Ballot Question 1. Over 96% of opinion columns are against us. Over 83% of the newspaper articles are indisputedly against us. The remaining articles usually lean 50% to 70% against Ending the income tax.
Despite our opponents’ $2,090,100 in union dues dwarfing our fundraising, despite their several thousand paid and unpaid union activists being over 100 times the number of our volunteers, and despite their overwhelming advantage in Newspaper and TV support –
WE ARE STILL DEAD EVEN IN THE POLLS.
Some polls show us and our opponents each at 45% — with 10% undecided. One poll shows us and our opponents each at 37% — with 26% undecided.
With everything they’ve thrown at us, we’re still tied.
With less than three weeks left, we can beat them.
We and our team are doing media interviews, debating our opponents, appearing on talk shows – and we’re reaching more and more of the 3,400,000 Massachusetts workers and taxpayers.
The Massachusetts Teachers Association and their allies have already begun as much as $5,000,000 in Negative Ads and Fear Ads in these last 2 or 3 weeks.
To win, we probably need to run $500,000 in our high-impact ads. Or as close to that amount as we can.
We have $49,816 in the bank. We need to raise $450,000 immediately – if not sooner.
Our ads can tip the scales – and give us victory for the taxpayers.
We’ve developed and tweaked an advertising language, message and approach that’s viral. Contagious. Infectious. Persuasive and unforgettable to Massachusetts taxpayers.
Each $20,000 in advertising will produce an additional $40,000 in positive news coverage, publicity, and word of mouth.
Together, you and we CAN win if you donate as much as you can, if your donation helps us run just 10% of the advertising our opponents are running.
Join us, and be an indispensible member of the Army of Davids that ENDS the Massachusetts income tax in less than 3 weeks.
Will YOU please contribute $500 or $250 or $150 right now – so we can produce and place the first wave of advertising?
If you are successful in your career, if you have enough cash or credit to make a larger donation, you will make a huge difference. Will you please donate $10,000 or $5,000 or $2,500 or $1,000 today?
Your donation is our advertising budget – to END the income tax. It’s our campaign budget.
Other Ron Paul donors are counting on YOU to give what they are giving. To join them. They need YOU to donate now. Will you please donate $85 or $65 or $45 today?
Even $5 will help.
