This Week in Woke DC: The Tear Down, Not Build Back Act
This morning, House Democrats passed H.R. 5376, the so-called
"Build Back Better Act." It should be known as the
"Tear Down, not Build Back Act," or the "Socialist
Tax and Spending Spree." The 2,466-page bill contains Equality
Act language, pushes the Left's radical agenda in public
schools, and could force you to pay for abortion. Read our press
release statement here.

GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy fought against the bill for over 8 hours
last night in a record-breaking floor speech- causing the vote on the
legislation to be delayed. Unfortunately, only one Democrat listened
to reason and the bill passed this morning 220-213.
Here are some of the worst anti-family provisions to the bill:
Equality Act Agenda
* Promotes Equality Act language, attempting to force the widely
rejected top priority of the LGBT agenda into yet another bill
* Demeans mothers by calling them "pregnant, lactating, or
postpartum individuals."
* Creates a grant program of "$15,000,000 specifically for
individuals based on their "sexual orientation or gender
identity."
Radical Left Policies in Public Schools
* Promotes so-called "equity" throughout the
legislation.
* Uses $1,270,000,000 of taxpayer dollars for public schools to
create a "master plan to address...education
equity." The grant will likely be used to promote critical
race theory and a radical liberal agenda in public schools.
Taxpayer Funded Abortions
* Mandates abortion coverage in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for
low-income families.
* Allows taxpayer dollars to fund elective abortion and subsidize
plans that cover election abortion.
* Creates funding streams that could be used for abortion
facilities or abortion training.
The "Tear Down, not Build Back Act" is now headed to the
Senate. We will keep you updated on how you can tell your Senator to
STOP this dangerous legislation!
In the meantime, the Senate started debating the National Defense
Authorization Act. The legislation still contains Equality Act
language and would force women to register for the draft. Tell your
Senator to tell them to STOP the left's radical gender agenda
and DON'T draft our daughters here.
