Dear Friend,
We try to only send out really important information to you
regarding things we need reinforcements for in North Carolina to make
sure your values are defended in law and elections.
As most of you know, we have been working tirelessly on MANY bills
that have a good chance of being passed now that we have a veto-proof
majority. The challenge is that the topics are very controversial, so
we have to motivate the Republicans to stand up for what is right and
pass these laws with significant negative pressure from the Left.
These 3 bills will be put before committee
tomorrow, and we need people to come voice your
opinion in support of these bills:
1. (10am) HB808 - Youth Health Protection Act
(preventing medical transitioning for minors under the age of 18)
Location- House Health Committee - Room 643 Legislative Office
Building
https://webservices.ncleg.gov/ViewBillDocument/2023/4195/0/DRH10383-NB-161
2. (1pm) HB823- Choose your school, Choose your
future (universal opportunity scholarship available to
every family to choose private school) Location- House
Education Committee- Room 643 Legislative Office Building
https://webservices.ncleg.gov/ViewBillDocument/2023/4228/0/DRH10393-MTa-124
3. (2pm) HB647- Expedite Child Permanency
(bill to help babies born to substance-abusers get placed in a
permanent home sooner; puts the developmental and attachment needs of
the child first) Location- Room 421 Legislative Office
Building
https://webservices.ncleg.gov/ViewBillDocument/2023/4814/0/H647-PCS40451-SA-8
If you are available to come to Raleigh to testify for 1-3 min and
show support for any or all of these bills, we would be very grateful.
If you plan to do so, please email me at [email protected] so I can help you
with talking points.
If you are unable to come to the legislature
tomorrow (5/2), please send emails or call your
representatives. It is also helpful to email the Speaker of the House,
Tim Moore, to thank him for moving these bills through
committees this week! [email protected]
Unfortunately we don't get much notice on when these bills are
being heard, so it tends to be last minute like this. If you are able
to help, that is wonderful. Also, please push this email out to any
conservative email lists you may have!
Sincerely,
Courtney Geels, [email protected] Grassroots
Director, NC Values
