Dear John,

National elections are only a year away. So, the radical Left is already working overtime with special interest groups -- Planned Parenthood, the Human Rights Campaign, Emily's List, and all the usual suspects -- along with their allies in the media.

Their goal is to sway public opinion in support of progressive, big-government, radical leftist policies...and silence those who oppose them.

Today, the Left has made clear what their vision is for America. It includes:

• Abortion-on-demand, until birth, at taxpayer's expense,
• Parents excluded from deciding what their children are taught in schools,
• Job-killing tax hikes and regulations that will weaken our economy,
• LGBT special privileges trampling religious freedom and privacy concerns.

We cannot retreat while the truth is at stake! For 40 years, Family Research Council has stood for truth in the halls of government as we have also provided Christians with the resources to speak out.

In 2024, the nation will face critical decisions, but we must take effective action now to inform and activate believers to be engaged citizens.

Our team at FRC needs your help. We have a quick five-question survey that will help us understand what issues matter most to you in this critical moment. Your answers will help FRC better represent you and educate like-minded conservatives to stand for truth in the public square.

Over the course of the next year, polls and politicians' positions will shift. The 24/7 news cycle cannot be our focus.

We must look higher, to unchanging truths and principles found in the Word of God.

Now is the time to root ourselves in a biblical worldview -- which is the basis for FRC's strategy to Pray, Vote, and Stand.

Prayer is one of our most effective weapons as believers (2 Corinthians 10:4-5, Ephesians 6:18). We challenge you to set aside time every day to pray for several specific points.

Please intercede in prayer for our current leaders and those who are running for office; for the church to speak truth on issues being debated in the public square regarding the unborn, parental rights, and religious freedom; and for fair and honest elections.

As followers of Jesus, we are called to be salt and light and to love our neighbors, and one way we can do this is by exercising our right to vote.

As Americans, we have been given a blessing and responsibility to have a say in who will lead our nation and what policies will be prioritized.

In our great nation, just since 2020, election integrity policies have passed in 29 states. These laws plug gaps in the voting system and help ensure that your voice will be heard.

Bottom line: plan to vote! Don't let discouragement or leftist talking points deter you.

and embolden others to do the same, which is what we at FRC do prayerfully and diligently every day, thanks to your faithful financial support.

Too often, we the people have failed to speak up and stand up when radical groups attack our faith, families, and freedom. We've allowed them to push God to the margins rather than living out our calling to honor God in everything that we do.

Right now, your voice matters, too.

One year out from critical national elections, what issues are most important to you? As you think about your faith, your family, and your freedoms -- what do you hope public officials address? Click below to submit and share your thoughts with us now.

And once you do, please consider your best gift to fuel FRC's mission to broadcast and equip believers with the truth.

Our nation needs Christians who will pray, vote according to biblical values, and stand for biblical truth. That is our calling as we engage the culture in the public square.

More than particular policies, a moral and spiritual crisis confronts our nation. The big issues sparking debate in our culture -- such as whether there are only two sexes, if unborn babies deserve protection, and in what ways healthy marriages matter for society -- are challenges to biblical truth.

There's a reason Tony ends every email to you with Ephesians 6:13, where the apostle Paul exhorts the church "to stand firm."

Today, when we find ourselves facing evil policies that significantly impact life, family, and religious freedom, we must remember that it is in God alone that we find the strength to stand.

Will you rise to this occasion with FRC?

Thank you in advance for sharing your thoughts and for your faithful support!
