Action Needed! Make a call on behalf of North Dakota female athletes.

By | North Dakota | No Comments

You can make a difference in North Dakota by praying and acting on two important bills being considered during the 2023 North Dakota legislative session. HB 1249 and HB 1489 relating to fair competition and equality in girls’ sports for all North Dakota female athletes.

 

HB 1249 and HB 1489 will protect women’s sports at high schools and institutions of higher education by “designating athletic teams and sports for male, female or coed participation.” This legislation prohibits male-born athletes from entering women’s sports as transwomen.

 

Read Concerned Women for America’s Protecting Women’s Sports CWA Fact Sheet for important information on this issue.

 

I submitted testimony in favor of the bills and urged the committee members to give HB 1249 and HB 1489 a do-pass recommendation. The House Human Services Committee Members must hear from those who stand with us on protecting girls’ sports in High Schools (HB 1249) and at institutions of higher education (HB 1489).

 

Please Take Action:

  1. Email or call the members of the House Human Services Committee listed below my signature line and ask them to vote a “Do Pass” on HB 1249 and HB 1489. If you are a member of Concerned Women for America of North Dakota, please let them know. Do not hesitate to leave a message on their voicemail.
  2. Forward this email to family and friends! Every email message and every phone call are counted!

 

Please Pray: Pray for our legislators on the House Human Service Committee by name, that God would give them the wisdom and understanding to accomplish His purposes.

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:12

 

Suggested message:

Please vote “Do Pass” on HB 1249 and HB 1289. Protect equal opportunity and a fair playing field for girls’ and women’s sports. Individual male-born athletes should not be eligible to participate on an athletic team that is exclusively for females.

Sincerely,

Your name and town

 

Thank you!

Speak Up to Protect Children from Harm

By | North Dakota | No Comments

“It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.” Luke 17:2

 

Sanford Health, the “largest rural health care system in the United States,” along with The Transformation Project, will be participating in the 3rd Annual Midwest Gender Identity Summit on January 13, 2023. The event will be held at the Sanford Research Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

 

The Transformation Project is a non-profit whose mission is “supporting and empowering transgender youth.” They promote the lie that “men and women can change their gender.” They conduct events “where participants, including children, ritually ‘burn’ their ‘old name or pronouns.’”

 

According to the Transformation Project website, several of the Summit’s session topics include:

  • Supporting Your Two-Spirit & Native LGBTQ+ Patients and Coworkers
  • Learning to Address Implicit Bias Towards LGBTQ+ & 2S Patients
  • General Affirming Care and The Attitude of Affirmation in Assessment

Concerned Women for America (CWA) of North Dakota find these activities very disturbing, especially among a healthcare institution that takes an oath to “do no harm.” It is ironic that health care providers blatantly deny the science that tells us one cannot change their God-given sex. Children struggling with gender confusion should be protected from unethical medical interventions that ignore underlying causes and reject long-term health and well-being.

 

No long term, scientific research exists to support the safety or efficacy of sex reassignment treatments on children – in fact, there is evidence to the contrary. A 30-year study in Sweden showed a significant increase in heart disease and in the number of suicides, suicide attempts, and psychiatric hospitalizations in people a decade after they have undergone sex-reassignment surgery compared to a control group of people of the same age and sex.

 

To encourage attendance, “medical professionals” attending the event will be awarded professional education credits.

 

TAKE ACTION TODAY!

Contact Bill Gassen, President and CEO of Sanford Health, at [email protected] or by calling the Sanford Medical Center at 605-333-1000, and strongly urge him to cancel the January 13 Midwest Gender Identity Summit in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

 

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, we pray for those struggling with gender dysphoria that they will believe the truth about Your design for them found in Scriptures and reject the lies of Satan.  Let them see truth in Your Word that says, “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female He created them.” We ask for protection of the hearts and minds of all our children, and we pray for Christians to courageously and lovingly speak God’s truth about Your design for sexuality in a confused and needy world.

Encourage-A-Legislator Prayer Project – North Dakota

By | North Dakota | 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-weekly until the conclusion of the four-month session.

The North Dakota Legislature

The North Dakota Legislature is in session from January 3 until April 28 and consists of 94 House members and 47 Senate members.

Answer the Call

Sign up today to be an encourager—it couldn’t be easier! Sign up by contacting CWA of North Dakota’s Encourage-A-Legislator Coordinator Linda Werven at 701-521-1001 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 January.

Spread the Word!

Please encourage your friends and family to sign up.

 

Consider making this a family project by involving your children.

CWA of North Dakota Supports Bipartisan “Trigger Statute” Soon to Go Into Effect

By | North Dakota | No Comments

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Concerned Women for America of North Dakota Supports
Bipartisan “Trigger Statute” Soon to Go Into Effect

 

Bismarck, North Dakota – Attorney General Drew Wrigley announced this morning that he hand-delivered a letter to the North Dakota Legislative Council today in response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

 

The 2007 bipartisan “trigger bill,” House Bill 1466, banning abortion, was written to take effect should the Roe precedent be overturned. Its primary sponsor was former Rep. James Kerzman, a Democrat.   Many other Democrat House members voted to pass the bill, including the current Minority Leader, Sen. Joan Heckaman (New Rockford), Sen. Richard Marcellais (Belcourt), and Sen. Tim Mathern (Fargo).

 

Concerned Women for America (CWA) of North Dakota State Director Linda Thorson, speaking for Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee, has this to say concerning the certification of the 2007 legislation regulating abortion:

“We are grateful that the North Dakota Legislature passed a strongly supported bipartisan ‘trigger statute’ that goes into effect next month! North Dakota stands ready to welcome women and unborn children. Our citizens, members of the state legislature, and our state administration have strongly supported a culture of life that protects all.”

 

“We are not so naive as to think that no more abortions will occur. After 50 years of a culture of death, we still have hearts and minds to change. We must continue to lovingly support and encourage women in their pregnancies. We must declare respect for life from the moment of conception and understand that all life is precious. We must recognize that we are created in the image of God.”

Concerned Women for America (CWA) of North Dakota State Director Linda Thorson, speaking for Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee, has this to say concerning the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization Supreme Court decision:

 

“We appreciate Gov. Doug Burgum’s released statement in May of 2022 about the decision regarding Roe v. Wade, in which he stated, ‘While recognizing that the U.S. Supreme Court has yet to issue an official opinion, our administration has consistently supported pro-life legislation, and we welcome the prospect of this issue being returned to the states where it belongs.’

 

“Well, the Supreme Court has finally overturned Roe, and now it is up to us, the people of North Dakota, to do our part. Thank you, Gov. Burgum and North Dakota legislators, for your tireless work on behalf of women and unborn children. We are grateful for your work to ensure the protection of life is celebrated by all of our citizens!”

Calls Needed for UND Gender Policy Proposal

By | North Dakota | No Comments

The University of North Dakota (UND) has a proposed “gender inclusion” policy that infringes on the free speech rights of students, faculty, staff, and visitors and creates an unhealthy student housing environment.

Although the proposed policy has been removed from the UND website, the North Dakota Catholic Conference saved a copy posted in the fall of 2021. As you can read, the policy goes beyond setting rules for administration procedures for respecting a person’s preferred name and pronoun, and it goes beyond the claim that it only addresses the intentional misuse of pronouns. Read these two excerpts:

“Proposed policy for Programs, Activities, Facilities, and Benefits:  University members may participate in university activities and programs consistent with their gender identities including, but not limited to, housing, recreation services, and activities, and camp programs.”

“Use of Facilities:  Students, employees, and visitors may access restrooms, locker rooms, and other facilities consistent with their gender identity and expression and are not required to use UND facilities inconsistent with their gender identity and expression or to use alternative facilities.”

The details of the proposal can be found here.

This policy is in the proposal stage, but since there is no indication that the University has stopped the procedure from putting it in place, your calls are needed now! 

Take Action! – Contact the following people and ask them to reject UND’s proposed “gender inclusion” policy. Your message does not need to be long. If you send an email, be sure to include your name and mailing address. Please remember to be courteous.

  1. Mayor Brandon Bochenski: (701)746-2607 | [email protected].
  2. UND President Andrew Armacost: (701)222-2121 | arma[email protected]
  3. Assistant Vice President of Equal Opportunity and Title IX Donna Smith: (701) 777-4172 | [email protected]
  4. Forward this on to family and friends!

Pray! We ask for continued prayer that truth and righteousness prevail. Pray for each individual by name as you contact them. “… to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.” (Acts 26:18)

Tell North Dakota Senators: Don’t Draft Our Daughters!

By | North Dakota | No Comments

In July, the Senate Armed Services Committee approved the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2022 with an amendment requiring young women to register with Selective Service for a possible future draft. This behind closed doors action faced immediate criticism—as did certain Senators who supported it. Sen. Kevin Cramer (Republican) serves as a member on the US Senate Committee on Armed Services and voted not only on the committee version of the NDAA with the women in the draft language but also voted on the actual amendment that added the women in the draft language to the NDAA itself.  

On September 23, the House passed NDAA legislation with a provision reversing military policy for a male-only draft and forcing young women to register for the first time in history. Rep. Kelly Armstrong (Republican) voted in opposition to the bill. Thank you, Rep. Armstrong!

Debate in the full Senate is expected soon, and we need a loud message to tell our North Dakota Senators to take a stand against drafting our daughters! American women are free to serve and proud to serve, but they should not be forced to serve. Women’s equality does not mean being the same as men.

Click here for more information on women in the draft.

Act Today!
Contact Sens. Kevin Cramer and John Hoeven (Republican) and urge them to hold the line and vote to reject the Draft our Daughters’ amendment and support the Don’t Draft Our Daughters’ Resolution (S.Res.340) on the NDAA.
Click here to send an e-mail to both Senators, or you can contact the senators individually at the information below and provide this message: reject the Draft our Daughters’ amendment and support the Don’t Draft Our Daughters’ Resolution (S.Res. 340).

  • Sen. Kevin Cramer: (202) 224-2043 | E-Mail
  • Sen. John Hoeven: (202) 224-2551 | E-Mail

There is no justification for reversing established military policy that protects young women from gambling with their lives in combat roles on a Biden-Harris-declared national emergency. We should not be willing to sacrifice common sense and tie the hands of our military with costly mandates for social experiments in our armed forces.

State Director

Pro-life Protections Signed into Law!

By | North Dakota | No Comments

Last week, Gov. Doug Burgum (Republican) signed into law SB 2030 – a bill concerning higher education challenge matching grant program, which will provide North Dakota Universities and Colleges matching grant funds for student scholarships. GREAT NEWS – The legislation included an amendment preventing state entities from partnering with an abortion provider or promoter.

Concerned Women for America (CWA) of North Dakota urged you to contact Gov. Burgum and ask him to sign the bill into law. Your voice was heard! Thank you for standing on the side of life and making those calls!

CWA of North Dakota is grateful for Gov. Doug Burgum’s continued record of signing into law pro-life legislation. Read our press release here.

Take Action!
Contact Gov. Burgum’s office at (701) 328-2200 or send an email message and thank him for signing SB 2030 into law! Let’s be sure he knows you are grateful his administration understands that taxpayer funds should never go to any abortion provider or promoter.

“As you, therefore, have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.” Colossians 2:6,7

Urge Gov. Burgum to Sign The Bill!

By | North Dakota | No Comments

April 26, 2021 was a great day for our state!  On that day, SB2030, a pro-life bill, passed the State Senate and is on its way to Gov. Doug Burgum’s (Republican) desk! SB 2030 clarifies that the State of Dakota does not do business with or partner with the abortion industry.

Watch the floor debate and final passage of the bill here.

Abortion advocates and University officials are working tirelessly to stop this pro-life bill from going into law and have put together a coordinated effort asking the Governor to use his veto pen and stop this pro-life legislation from going into law.

Action
Contact Gov. Burgum here (call or email) and urge him to sign SB 2030. A sample message is below my signature line.

Gov. Burgum needs to hear from pro-life North Dakota citizens, now!  The Governor has three days to sign or veto the bill.

Pray
Pray for our Governor that he will sign the bill. Praise be to God that the majority of legislators had the courage, wisdom, and understanding to vote against the wishes of University officials and for life!

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10

Please share this alert with your family and friends.

Linda Thorson
State Director

Dear Gov. Burgum,

Please sign SB 2030 into law. I do not support ties to Planned Parenthood by any of our Universities and ask that you affirm the decision made by the majority of our legislators.

Abortion has always disproportionately affected minority communities. Planned Parenthood targets abortion facilities in minority neighborhoods. They continue the eugenics goal of their founder Margaret Sanger and have built 88% of their new mega facilities within walking distance of minority neighborhoods.  North Dakota needs to stop any ties with an organization with racist intentions.

Sincerely,

Your Name, Town

Urgent! It’s Time to Override an Inexcusable Veto

By | North Dakota | No Comments

Yesterday, Gov. Doug Burgum (Republican) threw high school female athletes under the bus by vetoing HB 1298, a common-sense bill that would promote fairness in girls’ sports. The bill passed by a wide majority in the House but only narrowly in the Senate. You can read my press release on the veto here.

We need to fight back! Fair competition and equality in women’s sports are threatened, and we need leaders to stand up against the Governor’s veto and vote to protect female high school athletes. Now is the time to urge five senators who voted no on HB 1298 to reverse course and support HB 1289 to override Gov. Burgum’s veto. 

Take Action!

Call and email the five senators listed below and urge them to vote YES to override the veto of HB 1298. A suggested message is below my signature line.

Fairness in Girls’ Sports Bill Passes – One more call to make!

By | North Dakota | No Comments

We have reason to celebrate in North Dakota! HB 1298, a bill relating to participation in athletic events exclusively for females, was passed by the State Senate yesterday, April 15. The bill now heads to the Governor for his signature. Read my press release here.

Thank you for sending messages to the House and Senate members about this important bill that protects girls’ sports! Your voice made the difference.

But the work is not over. I need you to make one more call to Gov. Doug Burgum! It is very important that he hears from those who stand with him on protecting girls’ sports.

First, pray for Gov. Burgum that he will sign the bill. Pray that God would give him the wisdom and understanding to accomplish His purposes.

Second, contact Gov. Burgum here (call or email) and encourage him to stand with female athletes and sign HB 1298. Let him know that you stand with him in support of the bill. If you are a member of Concerned Women for America of North Dakota, be sure to let him know.

Suggested message:
Dear Gov. Burgum,

Voice Your Support for a Pro-Life Bill

By | North Dakota | No Comments

It’s time to STOP North Dakota State University’s (NDSU) relationship with Planned Parenthood! Thank you for responding to the last alert! On April 7, the North Dakota House voted to pass SB 2030! SB 2030 makes it clear that the university system can no longer partner with abortion providers and penalize campuses that violate the law.

For more details about SB 2030, read my letter to the editor and watch the April 7 House floor debate.

SB 2030 now returns to the Senate Appropriations Committee for their vote to concur or not concur with amendments that stop our universities from partnering with Planned Parenthood or any other entity that provides or promotes abortion. The amendments on the bill make the law covering the prohibition clearer by adding a penalty. Those who are opposed to the bill claim “academic freedom” must be protected but nothing justifies partnering with abortion providers! 

SB 2030 could be voted on as early as tomorrow. 

Take Action!
Contact the Members of the Senate Appropriations Committee and ask them to “vote to concur with the House on SB2030 with amendments.” Email addresses and a suggested message for members are located below my signature line. If applicable, be sure to mention that you are a member of Concerned Women for America of North Dakota. 

Pray!
Pray that members of the committee support this life bill and stand against the horrors of abortion! Partnering with an organization committed to death cannot be justified by “academic freedom.”

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

Suggested email message:

Dear Senator,
Please vote to concur with the House on SB2030 with amendments. I stand against any partnership with an organization that promotes or provides abortions and ask for you do to the same.
