Do you remember the post from Sunday regarding various forms of government and their relevance to the USA? The below email from Maryland Citizens for a Responsble Government details what happens when those in elected office think and act as though they're above the law under which we all live. Some background: two years ago, the Montgomery County Council passed a "transgender rights" bill that infringes upon the rights of others to be safe in public places, e.g. rest rooms, showers, etc. Many of us, led by MCRG, engaged in a petition drive to bring the measure to referendum. A chief legislative aide to the bill's main sponsor is under investigation for allegedly intimidating petition gatherers and signers during the drive. Now the aide and the bill sponsor are claiming "legislative privilege" in refusing to answer ethics questions.

Maryland Citizens! Take Action NOW!
Those of us in Montgomery County remember well our unsuccessful struggle to keep the so-called "gender identity bill" off of the county's books last year. The "gay rights" crowd tried the same stunt last year on the state level, but it failed.
However, they aren't giving up. They've reintroduced the slop under bills HB-1022 (House bill) and SB-583 (Senate bill). The bills are both in committee:
HB-1022: House Health & Gov. Op. Committee 1-301-858-3770
SB-583: Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee 1-301-858-3623
The senate committee hearing is scheduled for March 3rd at 1pm. The house committee hearing has not been scheduled at the time of this writing.
Call the committees first and ask them to vote "NO" on these bills. Then contact your senators and representatives.
I post now a link to the account of a young woman who was raped last month in a restroom on the Takoma Park campus of Montgomery College. Do we really want to make such attempts easier for thugs as this rapist? Such will be an effect of this bill statewide if passed.
Follow this link to see who are the committee members, who sponsored these bills and how to find your own legislators. This information came to me via Maryland Citizens for a Responsible Government. If you can, please help their work by donating to: MCRG, PO Box 83304 , Gaithersburg, MD 20883-4052.
I will ask now if the Church has learned its sorry lession from last year and will speak out sooner rather than later.
