   And this in today from William Bigelow at www.breitbart.com:  U. S. Representative Lois Capps, D. from the 24th district in California has introduced a U. S. House resolution calling for the ban of the use of more words.  The latest words to be offensive to the democrats are.....wait for it...."husband" and "wife"!  Wouldn't you know?  In full disclosure, Mrs. Capps has had two husbands according to her facebook page.

   Rep. Lois Capps has decided marriage should no longer reference "husband" and "wife".  She is not alone!  The bill, H.R. 2976, has 31 Democrat cosponsors in the House, 11 of which represent different districts of California.

   The Democrat CoSponsors are:  

• Don Beyer Jr., D - Virginia 8th District
• Suzan DelBene, D - Washington 1st District
• Donna F. Edwards, D - Maryland 4th District
• Sam Farr, D - California 20th District
• Ruben Hinojosa, D - Texas 15th District
• Sheila Jackson Lee, D - Texas 18th District
• Barbara Lee, D - California 13th District
• Alan Lowenthal, D - California 47th District
• Betty McCollum, D - Minnesota 4th District
• Patrick Erin Murphy, D - Florida 18th District
• Eleanor Holmes Norton, D - Washington DC
• Adam Smith, D - Washington 9th District
• Rick Larsen, D - Washington 2nd District
• Sander Martin Levin D - Michigan 12th District
• Mark Pocan, D - Wisconsin 2nd District
• Mike Thompson, D - California 5th District
• Niki Tsongas, D - Massachusetts 3rd District
• Ami Bera M.D., D - California 7th District
• Alan M. Grayson, D - Florida 9th District
• Mark DeSaulnier, D - California 11th District
• Raul Grijalva, D - Arizona 3rd District
• Chellie Pingree, D - Maine 1st District
• Eliot Engle, D - New York 16th District
• Mike Honda, D - California 17th District
• Eric Swalwell, D - California 15th District
• Pete Aguilar, D - California 31st District

   You can read the bill in it's entirety at www.Congress.gov.   Mrs Capps et. al.  are trying to change wording in our laws dating back to 1941 with her proposed amendments.  Shame be upon every American who has ever lived who believed that marriage is between a man and a woman!  Such homophobes!  Surely normal Americans just want to be mean to homosexuals!

   While introducing this bill,  she had the nerve to make a statement that ".....words in our laws have meaning...."   She went even further when she said "our values as a country are reflected in our laws.   Since she is the one who said, "words in our laws have meaning", tell me why The Supreme Court of The United States didn't read all of these words describing marriage that she is trying to go back and edit?!?  Our values as a country is not reflected by what 5 idiots on the Supreme Court decree!

   Please contact these elected Representatives and let them know what the meaning of the word "marriage" is.  Now is the time to stand up and be heard!  You didn't have anything to do with passing abortion, but here is your chance to take a stand on marriage!

CALL TO ACTION/TEXAS/MAY, 2015

CALL TO ACTION/TEXAS/MAY, 2015

   Texas, we have a problem.  Here is a house bill that was killed in this session of our state House of Representatives:  HB 4105. 

  HB 4105's bill title is:  Relating to the issuance, enforcement, and recognition of marriage licenses and declarations of informal marriage.  It had 90 co-sponsors, all republican.  It is currently on the General State Calendar, but I understand there was a "deadline" in there so the bills were killed on 5/14/2015.

  The piece of legislation that needs to be approved is:

By:  Cook

C.S.H.B. No. 4105

	A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
	AN ACT
	relating to the issuance, enforcement, and recognition of marriage
	licenses and declarations of informal marriage.
	BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
	SECTION 1.  This Act may be cited as the Preservation of
	Sovereignty and Marriage Act.
	SECTION 2.  The purpose of this Act is to affirm that the
	definition and regulation of marriage is within the sole authority
	and realm of the separate states and the people within those states.
	SECTION 3.  Subchapter B, Chapter 1, Family Code, is amended
	by adding Section 1.109 to read as follows:
	Sec. 1.109.  CERTAIN MARRIAGE LICENSES AND DECLARATIONS OF
	INFORMAL MARRIAGE PROHIBITED. (a) This state or a political
	subdivision of this state may not use any funds to issue, enforce,

	for a union other than a union between one man and one woman.
	(b)  An employee or official of this state or a political

	SECTION 4.  Section 194.001, Health and Safety Code, is
	amended by adding Subsection (c) to read as follows:
	(c)  A county clerk may not file, and the vital statistics
	unit may not enter into the vital statistics system, a document copy
	described by Subsection (a) or (b) that is associated with a union
	other than a union between one man and one woman. If the vital
	statistics unit determines that the document copy is associated
	with a union other than a union between one man and one woman, the
	vital statistics unit shall provide the document copy to the
	attorney general.
	SECTION 5.  Section 118.018, Local Government Code, is
	amended by adding Subsection (d) to read as follows:
	(d)  If a state agency determines that a marriage license fee

	for all services rendered in connection with the execution of a
	declaration of informal marriage under Section 2.402 [1.92], Family
	Code. The fee shall be collected at the time the service is
	rendered.
	(b)  If a state agency determines that a declaration of
	informal marriage fee was collected for a declaration of informal
