Pera Resolution 34th Biennial NFRW Convention

September 30, 2007

RESOLUTION 1

WHEREAS , Lawsuits are being brought all across America by the American Civil

Liberties Union (ACLU), atheists, intolerant secularists, and others, attacking the public

display of symbols of our American history and heritage if they contain words or symbols

of a religious aspect, including at veterans’ memorials, on public seals, in a display of the

Ten Commandments, and even in the oath of the Boy Scouts to do their duty to God and

country, alleging violations of the Establishment of Religion Clause (also called

Separation of Church and State) of the Constitution;

WHEREAS, Unknown to many if not most Americans, the ACLU, and other

organizations, have reaped enormous profits from such Establishment Clause lawsuits by

requesting, under laws originally intended to benefit the poor and not to enrich the ACLU

or other affluent organizations, and receiving under those laws from like-minded judges,

court-ordered attorney fee “awards” in the millions of dollars to be paid to the ACLU by

taxpayers who in the main abhor these ACLU lawsuits;

WHEREAS, In sworn testimony at hearings in the U.S. Senate and House it was

established that the ACLU has used the very threat of imposition of its attorney fees as “a

club” to bludgeon local elected bodies, including school boards, cities, counties, states,

and the Federal Government, to surrender to ACLU’s secular-cleansing demands, thus

inhibiting such governments’ constitutional actions under the first, tenth, and fourteenth

amendments and extorting money from the taxpayers; and

WHEREAS, The Veteran’s Memorials, Boy Scouts, Public Seals, and Other Public

Expressions of Religion Protection Act of 2007 (PERA), S. 415 and H.R. 725 would

prevent such abuse by amending the Civil Rights Attorney Fees Act of 1976, 42 U.S.

Code Section 1988, and all other relevant laws by withdrawing the authority of judges to

award taxpayer-paid attorney fees to the ACLU, or anyone else, in Establishment Clause

Cases, and would limit judicial remedies to injunctive and declarative relief;

RESOLVED, That the National Federation of Republican Women call upon the

110th Congress to pass the Public Expressions of Religion Act (PERA), S. 415/H.R.

725, and also urge all NFRW members to contact their U.S. Senate and U.S. House

delegations with a request to co-sponsor the PERA and to vote for it.
