Help Overturn

CA Dream ActOnce again we are trying to counter the leftist agenda by gathering signatures to stop Dream Act in California. The latest assault on the legal, tax-paying citizens of Californcame when Governor Brown signed into law AB 131, which would provide public nan

aid for higher education to illegal alien students. We need to gather signatures across o

state and up and down the state. If you are going to be visiting family this holiday seas

take a petition with you and get their signatures! You do need to be careful in gatherin

signatures, in that all the people who sign on the sheet, must be from the same county

they are not, they need to be on separate sheets. You must also make sure you ll out t

bottom of the sheet with the necessary information.

These petitions will not be on the internet as I was informed by Assembly member Tim

Donnellys (R-San Bernardino) sta; in the past, petitions have been thrown out if theywere not straight on the paper and other such garbage. So we will use the professiona

printed ones to avoid any wasted signatures and eort.

I have these petitions, will have them with me at our next meeting, and I will leave som

Republican Headquarters, 311 5th Street, Eureka. As always, you may call me at 707-4

3101 and together we can work out a meeting spot. I would love the signed ones back

soon as they are nished so I can send them o to be veried.

A.B. 131:Background: GOP assemblyman filereferendum of California Dream Ac

The California Dream Act was proposed by Assemblyman Gil Cedillo (D-LosAngeles), consisting of two bills, both of which Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law

AB 130, which gives illegal aliens privately-funded scholarships

AB 131, which gives illegal aliens taxpayer-funded scholarships

GOP Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, (R-Twin Peaks), launched an eort to ask voterepeal the California Dream Act, ling referendum papers to overturn Assembly131, which allows undocumented immigrant college students who already quafor in-state tuition rates to receive state-funded nancial aid, including Cal Gran

The Sacramento Bee reported that, once cleared for circulation, Donnelly wouldhave less than three months to collect the roughly 505,000 valid voter signatureneeded to put the referendum on the 2012 ballot. Qualifying for the ballot woufreeze implementation of the A.B. 131, which is not set to take eect until 2013until voters decide whether to keep or reject the law.

Learn more at http://stopab131.comFrom CFRW.org: Bills such as AB 130/131 are what makes higher education soexpensive and takes ever more taxpayer funding because the students who woubenet will not be paying for this education, you, the taxpayer will be paying.

Presidents Message

An artistworks hard to recreate athought or picture that has formed in hermind. Those gifted with creative talentstake pride in their accomplishments.

Painters stroke into being images ofbeauty. Authors and songwriters type,edit, and can spend countless hourscompiling and composing their works.

Sculptors mold, step back, form, look,gaze and perfect before placing theirname on a precious piece.

I feellike being a Republican Woman islike being an artist. We carry an image ofa beautiful nation in our hopes and

minds. We walk precincts for hours,some for years, form groups to telephone,educate and encourage voters. We dothis because we want that picture carriedin thought of a free nation to continue to

stand boldly before the world.

Dontlet the image of beauty fade withdiscouragement. Like the artist, keepworking until we see unfolding before usa nation our children and grandchildren

can also be proud of.Let us continue to strive for what isright and, with Gods help, we cancontinue to create and maintain a nationabounding in the beauty and freedomour forefathers fought and died for.

ChaplainsReport

November nds us still basking in sunshine and appreciating each warm day. It briey takes ominds o our situation that has presented itself. The Western world is broke. It became that wayindulging in a whole series of socialist programs- such as mandating that Fannie and Freddiesupport mortgage credit from borrowers who werent creditworthy. In Europe, the main culpritwasnt mortgage credit, but sovereign credit. Various banking rules encouraged reckless lendinggovernments whose credit proles were falsely enhanced by membership in the euro.

For decades, the wealthiest nations in the world have lived far beyond their means. The U.S.,which had been the largest creditor to the world, has become the largest debtor in history. Eventoday, its federal government continues to borrow more than 1 trillion a year, in order to maintaour military and a medical establishment that consumes almost 20% of GDP, more than twice wany other developed nation spend on health care. This is nancial insanity on a scale the world hnever seen before and it is addressed by more borrowing, printing money and spending! And we have the current administration continuing down that green path with the solar industry alaunching millions at sunken hulls minutes before the ships sink! November 2011 cannot come senough for all of us and the waves until we get there and after shall be of tidal proportion.

Mary Scott reports:I delivered 25 books from the "Who Was" series to South BayElementary School. The 5th grade teacher, Heather Becksted, on the left, was especially

appreciative as they will do American Hero biographies and create a wax museum in thespring. Note the girl in the front holding Ronald Reagan.
