Put your values into action! Pledge to defend the Constitution and Real American Values from the religious right.
	Pledge to defend the Constitution and Real American Values from the religious right. Dear (deleted) While the religious right pushes their divisive “Values Agenda”, we’re fighting for health, freedom, and science! On September 22nd, the who's who of the religious right is gathering in Washington, D.C. for a massive "Values Voter" summit. This event comes on the heels of the hollow "Values Agenda" that dominated Congress this summer and through which the religious right forced votes on a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage, an all-out assault on stem cell research, and floated legislation attacking a woman's right to choose. It's no secret that these issues have nothing to do with the values that most Americans hold dear. We’re fighting back. Over the last month, 22,304 of you took part in our survey, helping us define the Real American Values agenda. The Real American Values agenda YOU created is focused on: Stopping the religious right's assault on a woman's freedom to make her own medical decisions Protecting the civil rights of gay and lesbian Americans from the religious right's bigoted assault on their personal freedom Fighting the religious right's war on stem cell research, defending health and hope Now we’re going to put your values into action! Today, we’re announcing our Real American Values Campaign! Over the next month, we are going to take the real values that you helped draft to cities, schools, and neighborhoods across the country, encouraging the millions of Americans who share our vision to join our fight. But we need your help! Here are three things that you can do right now to help grow our army: Pledge to defend the Constitution and Real American Values from the religious right. Spread the word to 5 friends about how to be a DefCon Defender and get a DefCon bumper sticker! Our Real American Values Campaign is about drafting the millions of Americans who share our vision to join our fight. We need you to help lead this effort.
