Join Matthew LaClair's New Action

You've heard of Matthew LaClair, the intrepid New Jersey high school student and humanist who exposed his bible-thumping teacher who derided evolution in class.

Take a stand against religious and racial profiling!

Congress will soon introduce the End Racial Profiling Act (ERPA), important legislation that would end the immoral and ineffective use of racial and religious profiling. Take an important stand for religious freedom and equal justice and write to your elected officials, urging them to sign onto ERPA as an original co-sponsor.

Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) and Reps. John Conyers (D-MI) and Christopher Shays (R-CT) are expected to introduce the ERPA later this week. ERPA would ban racial and religious profiling by local, state and federal law enforcement officers, and also provide funds for data collection and reporting.

The targeting of individuals because of their race or religion is wrong. Please take a stand today by clicking here.

This was forwarded from Dave and I thought it should be posted on our site.
