On Friday, the Democrat-controlled U.S. House of Representatives passed the socialist, big-spending bill, with zero support from Republicans. This bill's true cost is an astounding $4.6 trillion, and includes everything from expansions of welfare to bailouts for blue states (in the form of a massive increase in the state-and-local tax deductions). The entire bill is full of progressive priorities and wish-list items, and our job now is to ensure the Senate never passes this bill. Please be sure to call both of your U.S. Senators and tell them to vote NO on this radical expansion of Big Government.

Have you already registered for [CPAC 2022]([link removed])? We'll be in Florida, where individual liberty is as abundant as sunshine these days, thanks to Governor Ron DeSantis. Tickets are selling fast, and you do not want to miss your chance to network with fellow conservatives and hear from the nation's top conservative leaders.

Here's a round-up of everything we accomplished at ACU last week:



**Be the first to buy Matt Schlapp's New Book *The Desecrators***
===================================================================

[  ]([link removed]) In this powerfully provocative book, Matt Schlapp and Deal W. Hudson provide firsthand accounts of the Desecrators’ actions and intentions, including their remarkably angry and uncharitable treatment of President Donald Trump. The authors also describe how Catholics have been stifled for years because many bishops have failed to confront pro-abortion Catholic politicians. But fortunately, there is hope. As Hudson and Schlapp lay bare the Desecrators’ path of destruction, they also lay out a plan for the faithful to turn things around. Here is a vision to build up rather than tear down.

**Giving Tuesday (Tuesday, November 30)**
===========================================

Giving Tuesday is right around the corner and we at the Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) are very excited for this celebration of generosity. The Thanksgiving holiday has always made me reflect on how thankful I am for all of you. Without you, CPAC would not be what it is today as the leading organization of conservatism, freedom, and liberty. We have been fighting each and every day to protect all Americans, but to continue the fight, we need your help! We are opposing the Socialists in Washington and the “Woke” CEO’s at every turn as they attempt to destroy this country through their massive policy fails and ridiculous cancel culture. Whether it’s defunding the police, driving inflation through the roof, allowing migrants to flow through the southern border with ease, or strangling the energy sector, we at CPAC vow to be a voice of reason. Giving Tuesday is your opportunity to make your voice heard and will help us preserve the America we love. No matter the size of your generous donation, we are very thankful to have you as a supporter and partner in our efforts to save this nation.

Since its inception in 2012, the National Day of Giving has been an encouragement every Tuesday after Thanksgiving for all to show their support to non-profits.

**Join The American Conservative Union’s Membership Circles!**
================================================================

“There are very few organizations that are willing to speak the truth and not give in to pressure or political correctness in our culture today. There are even fewer that have leaders that go beyond rhetoric and actually deliver results. ACU is one of those organizations. Matt and Mercedes Schlapp have given a home to American conservatives. A place for us to hear the truth from the best and brightest minds and leaders that our country has to offer. We are grateful for ACU and I’m happy to support all that they do!”

\- Orlando Salazar, Executive Vice Chair of the Dallas County Republicans and ACU Supporter
