Names of a Thousand Neo-Marxist State Legislators

Bumped up this October 31st, for voters

October 22, 2010 ~ Spread the news now, while there is time:

A thousand more authoritarians who should not be making law for America.
One thousand to vote out, now through November 2nd.

This list was compiled by Progressive States Network last year, during the campaign for Obamacare. Their slogan is “National Change, State by State.” Let them introduce themselves.

Our Campaigns Overview

Since its founding in 2005, Progressive States Network has worked to build a network of progressive legislators committed to working with grassroots advocates, progressive policy institutions, unions and community groups to move progressive policy and transform the political debate across the fifty states. Through our email communication, conference calls,conferences and other work, we have brought strong progressive elected state leaders together with one another and with their key organizational allies to allow for better information exchange, strategic cooperation across states, and a deepening of links between like-minded progressive legislators and advocacy groups within each state.

It is a petition by those who decided to join a group called State Legisltors for Progressive Health Care Reform.

Over 1000 Legislators Sign Letters Supporting Federal Health Care Reform

In 2009, legislators working with Progressive States Network joined together to form State Legislators for Progressive Health Care Reform. Over 1,000 state legislators signed letters urging the Obama Administration and Congress to pass comprehensive health care reform legislation, including the choice of a public health insurance plan.

By now, many Citizens have found out what a progressive is, but for an explanation in the context of Obamacare, you may wish to see, by J.B. Williams, “The Truth About Progressives – a.k.a. Marxist,” from this past March. While it does not pedantically spell out progressive history, it makes the distinction between their neo-Marxism and American patriotism.

Mind you, I do not question the patriotism of progressives. They have no patriotism to question. A patriot is one who believes in, upholds, and promotes the principles of our founding fathers (hence the root word, pater in the ancient Greek).

These who would “progress” from the principle of the free moral agency, thus Sovereignty of the person, under God, who would therefore “progress” from America’s Citizenship, State, and National Sovereignties, and would thus “progress” beyond the foundationally concrete American realities expressed in the Declaration and Constitution, are not with us in patriotism.

They are against us and their political efforts do deadly violence to America. But thank God, we have peaceful means to defend our country against this domestic enemy: let us make sure likely patriot with whom we can feasibly communicate knows enough to responsibly vote; then help them make sure they do.

The blog, Mind Numbed Robot has featured the names, quoting Progressive States Network as follows:

========================================

Just in case, here is the original letter, as posted on the PSN website.

Letter text:

Dear President Barack Obama, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and Members of the 111th US Congress:

As leaders in state legislatures across the country, we urgently call on President Obama and the U.S. Congress to take up and pass comprehensive health care reform in 2009.

The serious problems with health care in America ‚ ever-rising costs, limited access, inconsistent quality, and waste and inefficiency ‚ converge in the states. The effects of these problems stress state budgets, exhaust family resources, result in lost worker productivity, stifle entrepreneurial spirit, and literally cause tens of thousands of deaths each year.

Our disjointed health care system has formed a choke-hold on our economy, limiting job growth and economic development. We cannot fix the economy without fixing health care.

Over the past decade, state legislatures have debated and implemented a myriad of reforms to bring affordability, quality and fairness to health care in America ‚ designing solutions that reflect each state‚ unique economic, social, and geographic features. States play a vital role in the health care for hundreds of millions of Americans, by administering and helping to fund public programs like Medicaid and SCHIP, enacting innovations to expand access to public and private coverage, and serving as watchdogs of health insurance companies and other players.

Yet, states cannot achieve guaranteed affordable health care for all without the investment, leadership and partnership of the federal government. Successful reform requires robust federal-state collaboration.

Key priorities for reform are reflected in recent state initiatives and public opinion polls which show that Americans want more choices and options for quality health care. Americans recognize that the private sector alone has proven incapable of creating a high-quality, fair, and accountable health care system that works for all families. Therefore, a key priority for reform is the choice of a public health insurance plan that is available to businesses, individuals, and families. Another key priority is strengthening and expanding the Medicaid program with the help of enhanced federal support so that it can serve all low-income Americans. Related priorities include: guaranteeing affordability for individuals and businesses; preserving consumer choice of doctors; eliminating racial, ethnic, gender, and rural health disparities; ensuring shared responsibility among employers, individuals and government in financing health care; and, cost containment strategies that eliminate waste and inefficiency and improve quality, especially for people with chronic illnesses.

Failure to pass national comprehensive health reform now will further jeopardize state and local budgets, undermining public services like education, public safety, and transportation infrastructure.The recently passed economic recovery package includes a number of positive health care measures, but these do not remove states from the critical list. Achieving a high-performing, affordable and quality health care system for all US residents is central to a sustainable economic recovery and to the health and financial security of all families, businesses, and governments.

We, the undersigned, call on President Obama and the Congress to enact bold and comprehensive health care reform this year ‚based on these principles and a strong federal-state collaboration ‚and pledge our support as state legislators and allies in pursuit of guaranteed, high quality, affordable health care for all.

This letter was developed in consultation with national health care reform advocates, including the AFL-CIO, AFSCME, Community Catalyst, Families USA, Herndon Alliance, National Women’s Law Center, Northeast Action, SEIU, and Universal Health Care Action Network.

Prior to this, he was an organizer of electoral action in Illinois and Wisconsin, while maintaining a career in technology sales. Arlen addresses the Marxofascist soft war for global empire, against authentic America and freedom and sovereignty worldwide, suggesting overwhelming First Amendment warfare in return.

He asks you to communicate with your neighbors, and to confront 2010?s politicians and candidates with “The Three SOVEREIGNTY NOW Questions.”
