Update! Action Needed: Preferred Pronoun Bill Is Moving

By | Louisiana | No Comments

HB81, an important bill relating to preferred pronouns and school policies on expressed gender, is moving through the Louisiana State Legislature. Because of your prayer and action, the bill passed out of the House Education Committee by a vote of 7-5 and was also voted out of the House by a vote of 62-32. The bill is now pending in the Senate Education Committee and is scheduled to be heard on Thursday, June 1, at 10:00 a.m. CST.  Senate committee members must hear from those who stand with us on prohibiting a public school from adopting a policy or practice regarding expressed gender.

 

Forcing teachers to use “preferred pronouns” infringes on a teacher’s right to free speech and the free exercise of religion. Policies that require a student to be referred to by gender, non-binary, or plural pronouns, or other gendered languages that are different from the student’s biological sex violate the religious belief that God assigns sex at conception and is a conflict for those unwilling to compromise their beliefs.

 

Please Take Action:

  • Email or call the members of the Senate Education Committee listed below my signature line and ask them to vote Yes on HB81. If you are a Concerned Women for America of Louisiana member, please let them know. Do not hesitate to leave a message on their voicemail.
  • Forward this email to family and friends!

 

Please Pray: Pray for the legislators on the Senate committee by name that God would give them the wisdom and understanding to accomplish His purposes.

Action Alert: Senate Committee to hear Don’t Harm Our Children Act

By | Louisiana | No Comments

Good news! HB648 (formally HB463, the “Don’t Harm Our Children Act,” sponsored by State Rep. Gabe Firment (R-District 22), passed the House Health and Welfare Committee (14-3) and the House Floor (71-24). The bill now moves to the Senate, where it will be heard in the Senate Health and Welfare Committee this Wednesday, May 24.

 

HB648 will prohibit certain procedures to alter the sex of a minor child. Louisiana has a governmental interest in protecting the health and safety of its citizens, especially vulnerable children. The risks associated with the allowance of irreversible, permanent reassignment surgery outweigh the scientific benefits. This law will exclude gender transition procedures for any person under 18 years of age from healthcare coverage reimbursement and provides that any provision of gender transition shall be subject to discipline by the licensed entity over the physician, mental health provider, or other healthcare professionals.

 

Visit Concerned Women for America’s website for timely resources on this issue: 

 
 Take Action:

  • Contact the members of the Louisiana Senate Health and Welfare Committee and ask them to support HB648. If you are a constituent, be sure to let them know. The Senate members are listed below my signature.
  • Forward this information to family and friends.

 

Please Pray:
Pray that Louisiana state senators will not be overcome with timidity and will be emboldened with courage to vote against child mutilation. Pray for the truth to prevail and lies to be exposed.

Action Alert: Help us keep life protections.

By | Louisiana | No Comments

“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”  1 John 3:18

 

Our country experienced an incredible win for life last year with the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women‘s Health Organization decision. The Dobbs decision stated that “the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; Roe and Casey are overruled; and the authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected Representatives.”

 

Current law in Louisiana does not allow for abortion in the case of rape or incest. However, there are efforts in the Louisiana State Legislature to remove the rape and incest exceptions.  HB549 would add rape and incest to the list of acts performed by a physician that shall not be considered an abortion.

 

Concerned Women for America (CWA) of Louisiana believes that we should love and care for mothers who are experiencing an unexpected pregnancy, but compassion for these mothers does not have to coincide with condoning the unjust death of an innocent child.

 

Take Action:

Contact the members of the House Criminal Justice Committee members and ask them to oppose HB549 and protect all life in the womb. The committee contact information is listed below my signature.

 

Forward this alert to like-minded family and friends.

 

Pray: Father, we come with humble hearts and awe at how You moved to reverse Roe vs Wade. Now, we come to You and ask that You move in Louisiana and expose, confuse, and reverse the culture of death in this State. Amen.

 

I pray that you are encouraged to act on behalf of those who need an arm of support as they walk through an unexpected pregnancy and will be bold to stand for the lives of the unborn, our most vulnerable.

Action Needed: 1st and 14th Amendment Rights Threatened

By | Louisiana | No Comments

Will you help pass a great piece of legislation that protects the First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of employees? HB81, sponsored by Rep. Raymond Crews (R- District 8), is an important bill relating to preferred pronouns and school policies on expressed gender that will protect those rights.

Forcing teachers to use “preferred pronouns” infringes on a teacher’s right to free speech and the free exercise of religion. Policies that require a student to be referred to by gender, non-binary, or plural pronouns, or other gendered languages that are different from the student’s biological sex violate the religious belief that God assigns sex at conception and is a conflict for those unwilling to compromise their beliefs.
 

Read Concerned Women for America’s (CWA) important information on this issue. Campus Insanity – Concerned Women for America and Back to School and “Gender Identity” Indoctrination – Concerned Women for America
 

House members will be voting on HB81 as early as the week of May 8. They must hear from those who stand with us on prohibiting a public school from adopting a policy or practice regarding expressed gender.
 

Act today and contact your State Representative through our Action Center HERE and ask them to protect 1st and 14th Amendment rights by voting YES on HB81.
 

Forward this email to family and friends!
 

Please pray for your legislator that God would give them the wisdom and understanding to accomplish His purposes.

Calls Needed to Protect Children From Medical Mutilation

By | Louisiana | No Comments

The gender ideology obsession that manipulates children and instills confusion and hopelessness in young minds is a national disgrace. Using children for medical experiments that have no basis in science must be stopped. Children who struggle with identity should be protected from harmful “gender reassignment” medical practices causing serious health risks, irreversible damage, and regret. Minors are incapable of giving informed consent to destructive medical interventions degrading their development and sterilizing their bodies. Unfortunately, big pharma and medical associations are more interested in profit than ethical practice. CWALAC stands against the medical mutilation of minors in the name of “gender confirmations.”

 

HB463 has been introduced by Rep. Gabe Firment (R-District 22). The bill will prohibit certain procedures to alter the sex of a minor child. The risks associated with the allowance of irreversible, permanent reassignment surgery outweigh the scientific benefits. This bill excludes healthcare coverage reimbursement for gender transition procedures for any person under 18 years of age. It also provides that any provision of gender transition will be subject to discipline by the licensed entity over the physician, mental health provider, or other health care professional.

 

Visit Concerned Women for America’s Protecting Vulnerable Children page for timely resources on this issue.

 

Take Action:

  1. Contact the members of the Louisiana House Health and Welfare Committee and ask them to support HB463. The House members are listed below my signature. If you are a constituent, be sure to let them know.
  2. Forward this information to family and friends.

 

Please Pray:

  1. Pray that Louisiana state representatives will not be overcome with timidity and will be emboldened with courage to vote against child mutilation.
  2. Pray for the truth to prevail and lies to be exposed.
  3. Pray for citizens who will be testifying in support of HB463.

Take Action to Protect Our Children from Obscenity!

By | Louisiana | No Comments

Obscene material has been found in children’s sections of public libraries across Louisiana, and Concerned Women for America (CWA) of Louisiana is calling on Louisianans to take important action to protect our children from obscenities. It is reprehensible to have sexually explicit content accessible to children.

 

SB7, sponsored by Sen. Heather Cloud (R-District 28), is a good bill that seeks to protect minors by prohibiting the promotion of obscenity, objectionable materials, and obscene performance. This bill will require libraries to establish, adopt, and implement a policy that limits access to sexually explicit material to minors. In addition, a governing authority will be installed as oversight to the existing library board of control.

 

SB7 needs to pass. Allowing children to view sexually explicit material is sexual abuse. Taxpayers should not be forced to pay for material that is harmful to children.

 

Please Take Action:
Contact the members of the Senate Education Committee listed below my signature and ask for their support of SB 7. The Chairman and members of the Education Committee need to hear from you (particularly if you are a constituent of a committee member). If you are a Concerned Women for America of Louisiana member, please let them know.   

Send your own message or use the suggested message here:

 

Subject line of the email:  Please vote “Yes” on SB 7

 

Dear Senator _________,

Please vote to protect children. Obscene material does not belong in children’s sections of public libraries.

 

Sincerely,

Your name and town

Be sure to forward this email to family and friends! Every email message and every phone call are counted!

 

Please Pray: Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of children. We pray those in authority protect children from evil influences. May our lawmakers have the courage to stand for righteousness. 

 

“Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD. The fruit of the womb is a reward.” Psalm 127:3

Encourage-A-Legislator Prayer Project – Louisiana

By | Louisiana | No Comments

Encourage-A-Legislator Program

“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.” – I Timothy 2:1-2

The Call to Prayer

I Timothy 2:1-2 instructs us to pray for our leaders. Concerned Women for America’s (CWA) Encourage-A-Legislator (EAL) program offers our members and friends the vehicle to do this in an easy and meaningful way. It ensures consistent prayer for each legislator, and it encourages and builds bridges with conservative legislators as well as those who do not normally agree with us.

 

Whether a legislator is a believer, non-believer, conservative, liberal, Democrat, Republican, independent, or other, they need our prayers. This next legislative session, CWA plans to deliver those prayers.

The Goal

The goal of the EAL program is to encourage each member of the State House and Senate by praying for them on a regular basis and sending them a postcard throughout the legislative session.

 

The EAL program is never used to lobby and, therefore, is never confrontational. It is simply a great way to lift up those in authority and encourage them in their responsibilities.

The Commitment

We provide the name and address of the assigned legislator(s) and the postcards, and you commit to praying for your assigned legislator(s) daily, if possible, while the legislature is in session and then mail an EAL postcard bi-monthly until the conclusion of the two-month session.

The Louisiana Legislature

The Louisiana legislature is in session from April 10 till approximately June 8 and consists of 105 House members and 39 Senate members.

Answer the Call

Sign up today to be an encourager—it couldn’t be easier! Sign up today to be an encourager—it couldn’t be easier! Sign up by contacting CWA of Louisiana’s Encourage-A-Legislator Coordinator D. Hoehl at 337-340-7101 or by email at [email protected] and provide her with your name and physical mailing address. Be sure to specify how many legislators you would like to encourage. She will then enlist you as an encourager and send you a packet of postcards and instructions in late March.

Spread the Word!

Please encourage your friends and family to sign up.

 

Consider making this a family project by involving your children.

Roe vs. Wade is Overturned! CWA of Louisiana Responds

By | Louisiana | No Comments

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 24, 2022                                          

FOR MORE INFORMATION: Laura Huber (504) 236-8546

 

 

Concerned Women for America of Louisiana

Applauds the SCOTUS Decision to Overturn Roe v. Wade

 

Covington, Louisiana – It’s a day to celebrate! The overturn of Roe v. Wade restores Louisiana’s right to protect the life of unborn babies across the state from abortion.

 

Concerned Women for America of Louisiana State Director Laura Huber, speaking for Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee, has this to say concerning the Supreme Court Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision:

 

“In 2006, the Louisiana legislator passed the Human Life Protection Act, which ensures that the state of Louisiana has the authority to prohibit abortion following the reversal of Roe v. Wade. In addition, the Louisiana Love Life Amendment passed in 2020 protects our pro-life laws prohibiting state judges from ‘finding’ a right to abortion or funding abortion in the Louisiana Constitution.

 

“And just this week, Gov. Bel Edwards signed into law several pro-life bills. The Governor made this statement on the bill signing, ‘My position on abortion has been unwavering. I am pro-life and have never hidden that fact.’

 

“Organizations around Louisiana stand ready to support, encourage, and advocate for pregnant mothers and children. Through solid resources to assist and good legislation, Louisiana is prepared to support a culture of life that protects all.”

Urge Gov. Bel Edwards to Sign the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act!

By | Louisiana | No Comments

The Fairness in Women’s Sports Act (SB 44) has passed the Louisiana Legislature with bipartisan support and now awaits Gov. John Bel Edwards’ (Democrat) signature. You can read my press release here.

 

It is your voice that is making the difference! Thank you for sending messages to the House and Senate members encouraging them to pass this important piece of legislation that will protect sports for women and girls.

 

However, the work is not over yet. I need for you to make one last call to Gov. Bel Edwards and urge him to sign the bill. He must hear from us – that we stand with him to protect girls’ sports.

 

ACT TODAY! Please email, call, or tweet Gov. Bel Edwards through our Action Center HERE and urge him to stand on the side of female athletes and sign SB 44 and protect women’s sports. Girls should not be forced to compete against men playing on women’s sports teams.

Press Release: Louisiana Legislature Votes to Protect Women’s Sports

By | Louisiana, Women's Sports | No Comments

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Laura Huber at 504-236-8546

 

Bipartisan majority sends the Fairness in Women’s
Sports Act to the Governor’s desk

 

Baton Rouge, LA – This week, the Louisiana House passed the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act (SB 44). The bill, which has bipartisan support, now heads to Gov. John Bel Edwards’ desk for his signature. This is the second year in a row that the state legislature has stood on the side of female athletes and sent a bill to the governor’s desk. After vetoing the bill last year, Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee (CWALAC) calls on Gov. Bel Edwards to sign the bill.  

 

The Fairness in Women’s Sports Act would prohibit biological men from competing on women’s scholastic sports teams. It would ensure that female athletes will continue to be afforded the opportunity to compete on a level playing field.

 

Laura Huber, CWA of Louisiana State Director, had this to say, “Thank you, Louisiana Legislature, for fighting for female athletes and passing the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act. We now call on Gov. Bel Edwards to stand with female athletes and sign the bill into law. Female athletes in Louisiana deserve to have an equal playing field in their sport of choice.”

 

CWALAC is leading the charge to save women’s sports.

“So, God created man in His own image; in the image of God, He created him; male and female He created them.” – Genesis 1:27

Last year, Concerned Women for America (CWA) of Louisiana fought hard on the girls’ sports bill that would have allowed only girls to complete in girls’ sports. The bill passed with bipartisan support, only to be vetoed by Gov. John Bel Edwards. An attempt to override the veto failed.

The fight to save women’s sports in Louisiana is back, and we need your help! SB44, a bill that would promote fairness in women’s sports, was introduced by Sen. Beth Mizell (R- District 12) and has been assigned to the Senate Education Committee. The chairman and committee members need to hear from you, particularly if you are a constituent of a committee member, about the importance of ensuring girls have a fair playing field in sports.

Take Action:

  1. Contact the members of the Senate Education Committee and ask them to support SB44. The committee members are listed below my signature. If you are a constituent, be sure to let them know.  Use this link to find out who represents you in the state legislature.
  2. Forward this information to family and friends.

By | Louisiana | No Comments

We are excited to launch our 2022 Encourage-A-Legislator (EAL) program!

Regardless of whether legislators are conservative, liberal, Republican, Democrat, Independent, Christian, or non-Christian, they need both our prayer and encouragement.

Louisiana House Throws Female Athletes Under the Bus

By | Louisiana | No Comments

The Louisiana House of Representatives failed to override Gov. John Bel Edwards (Democrat) veto of SB 156, Fairness in Womens’ Sports Act. The Louisiana Senate voted to override the veto the previous day.

Concerned Women for America of Louisiana State Director, Laura Huber, had this to say of the failed veto override, “It is devastating that a minority of lawmakers have prevailed today to throw our daughters under the bus and deny them equal rights to safety and opportunity in sports that women fought so hard to achieve. We thank the legislators of both parties who have stood with courage and conviction to fight for fair play for Louisiana’s female athletes. We will continue to stand with you!”
