Are your Legislators Supporting HR 973? 

American Conservative, 

We are committed to this fight against Shariah Law. Already, you have helped to fax the United States Congress over 300,000 times. You are making a distinct difference in the thought patterns, not just of everyday patriotic Americans, such as you, but with Members of the United States Congress. Thank you for your faxes—and let’s keep up the fight. 

This is literally a battle of survival for the integrity of the United States and our U.S. Constitution. But with the pro-Muslim leadership of Barack Hussein Obama, we must continue in this all-out war for the literal soul of America. 

You can make a very patriotic, serious decision to bring this fight to America! The Bill which outlaws foreign law from our U.S. Court system (H.R. 973) only has 56 co-sponsors. WHERE IN THE WORLD ARE THE OTHER 379 Representatives in this fight? 

Do you know where your Representative stands in this very important piece of legislation? You need to find out! And quickly.
