The ACU exposes the scary goals of the liberal Congress - government takeover of the oil industry. Help spread the word of this dangerous scheme by sharing this video.
When President Bush proposed an economic stimulus package we thought that was what we were getting -- an economic stimulus package.
But when the stimulus package was first proposed several days ago, the American people were told that TAXPAYERS would get REBATES of up to $800 for individual taxpayers and $1600 for married couples.
But now, according to the Associated Press, $28 billion will go to people who never paid taxes in the first place!
As Congressman Jeb Hensarling said:
"Simply handing out $28 billion dollars... that's not economic stimulus... that's not tax relief... that's a welfare entitlement!
"Government giveaways do not provide jobs, relief to the middle-class or help revive a sluggish economy!
"What they do, is allow politicians to buy votes... using YOUR MONEY!"
Extending what essentially amounts to a welfare entitlement is not the only problem with this so-called economic stimulus package.
Conservatives wanted our Congressional leaders to put an extension of the Bush 2003 tax cuts -- which are set to expire soon if we don't act now -- on the table. But liberals in Congress are holding tax cuts hostage!
Hensarling is proposing legislation that will provide real economic stimulus, create jobs, boost the economy, increase government revenues and provide families with much needed tax relief!
And that's why we need to support Hensarling right now!
Tell President Bush and each and every Congressional leader that the American people want real economic reform and long term solutions -- including making the Bush tax cuts permanent -- that are being proposed by Congressman Hensarling and others.

Through our educational programs, lobbying efforts, and advocacy work, the American Service Council strives to protect the rights of all citizens including the often overlooked senior citizens. We also strive to preserve the Cultural Traditions upon which American was founded.
Founded in 1976 by Gary Jarmin, our organization's goal has always been to engage in public interest lobbying and to encourage American citizens to become involved in the political process.
Over the last 30 years, the American Service Council has grown into a grassroots citizens group with more than 46,000 loyal members across the country... and that number continues to grow.
Under the leadership of Gary Jarmin, our Nationwide Petition Drives, Congressional Lobbying efforts and Direct Mail Awareness Campaigns to save Social Security and protect America's Cultural Traditions give voice to citizens who might otherwise never have a voice in Washington.
From the insolvency of Social Security and Medicare to the War on Traditional American Values -- Americans face challenges that can only be met by ballots and organization.
In today's world... Action is Vital.
Since many of America's citizens subsist on a fixed income, the American Service Council believes we have a moral obligation to take an active role to influence our elected leaders on policy that impacts the lives of citizens.
We encourage all individuals to become informed about the issues that effect their lives and to know where their elected officials stand. Our Petition Drives and Lobbying Campaigns allow our members to communicate with their elected officials on a regular basis.
