2. CAROLINA JOURNAL: Pronoun police? Wake County schools adopt
Biden’s new Title IX gender language policies
"The Wake County Public School System
passed policy changes Tuesday night that will more broadly define
“sex-based harassment” that critics worry could potentially open the
door to pronoun policing. The policy will rephrase sexual harassment
to sex-based harassment, potentially punishing people who don’t comply
with proper pronoun usage. Wake County School District policies
prohibit discrimination, harassment, and bullying already, but the new
revisions are in response to the Biden administration’s changes to the
definition of sex in Title IX."

3. CAROLINA JOURNAL: Slides labeling
Pro-Life groups terrorists used for 7 years at Fort Liberty
“Training slides labeling Pro-Life Americans as
terrorists have been used for at least seven years
for terrorism training at Fort Liberty (formerly known as Fort Bragg),
according to a letter that North Carolina Republican US Senator Ted
Budd received from the US Army.
Budd and Congressman Richard Hudson, R,
NC-09, led a group of 88 members of the Senate and House of
Representatives, including Republican North Carolina US Sen. Thom
Tillis and Republican Congressmen Greg Murphy, NC-03, Patrick McHenry,
NC-10, David Rouzer, NC-07, and Chuck Edwards, NC-11, in signing and
sending a letter last Friday to Secretary of
the Army, Christine Wormuth, demanding answers as to why
anti-terrorism training conducted at Ft. Liberty, depicts Pro-Life
Americans as terrorists.”

4. YOU'RE INVITED: Calling all parents
with students waitlisted for the Opportunity Scholarship
As you know, the legislature has
failed to reach an agreement on fully funding the 58,000+ students
left unfunded by the Opportunity Scholarship, despite legislators'
statements that they would ensure we had universal school choice in
North Carolina.
A group of concerned
parents, unaffiliated with NC Values or any other organization, have
come together to hold a rally and press conference on July 31 at 10
a.m. on the Halifax Mall. The House and Senate will be
in session that day, and the goal is to encourage the two chambers to
pass legislation that will fully fund all the students left out of the
Universal Opportunity Scholarship, because there is not enough money
appropriated to fund the waitlist. If you are one of the many parents
whose children are on the waitlist for Opportunity Scholarship
funding, would you consider joining them on July 31st for the
rally?
WHAT: Parents with Students Waitlisted for the
Opportunity Scholarship Rally/Press
Conference
WHEN: July 31, 10
a.m.
WHERE: Halifax Mall, 300 N. Salisbury St.,
Raleigh, NC
WHY: To urge the legislature to fully
fund the Opportunity Scholarship before the clock runs
out
HOW: RSVP by texting: 252-299-2326. For more
information, visit https://keepyourpromise.substack.com/.
If you are not a parent, or cannot attend
in person, but would still like to help these families out, would you
consider taking a couple minutes to use
this click-to-call tool to easily call your legislators and
ask them to support funding the Opportunity Scholarship?

WEEKLY PRAYER: RNC PRAYER BY NEAL JACKSON
Heavenly
Father,
We thank you
for your many blessings upon the United States of America. Your
provisions for this land, your protection of this land, and your
promotion of this land is undeniable.
You said in
your word, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord." We claim
this promise for America, believing that You desire to bless and
prosper our country as we acknowledge You and Your ways.
Father forgive
us, for when we have strayed from Your commandments and grant us
mercy.
Tonight, we
ask that you would protect our country from those who would seek to
harm it and our citizens. Thank you for our protection of President
Trump against the many attacks leveled against him but especially
against the attack this past Saturday.
We pray for
our military, our police officers, and our fire fighters, and all of
our first responders as they risk their lives so we can continue to be
the land of the free and the home of the brave.
As Joshua was
commanded to be strong and courageous, may You raise up a generation
of leaders across this land who will honor You and govern with
integrity.
We ask these
things in the name that is above every name, the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Amen
