“Promise Zones” Newest Federal Boondoggle

More Agenda 21 nonsense from Obama….

Later today at the White House, President Obama will announce the first ever “Promise Zone” communities.

“Promise Zones explore new strategies to bolster local economies. From education to housing to job creation, the program helps communities find creative solutions to their challenges—and that’s something every town and city can learn from.”

Just what we need are more intrusive programs, right?

Today, Congress is debating whether communities will be able to keep doing this work.

The House and the Senate are still negotiating fiscal year 2014’s federal budget—including important programs that SUPPOSEDLY support community development.

Promise Zones are just one of the many federal initiatives that could be hampered—or eliminated—when Congress reaches a final budget deal.

We want to make SURE this program remains UNFUNDED.

Tell Congress to OPPOSE programs like Promise Zones: Send a letter to your representatives today.

“San Antonio, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, southeastern Kentucky and the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma—the first five Promise Zone communities—will get new resources to help them grow stronger from the ground up” they claim. But you and I know this means more federal interference, property rights stolen, and more tax money wasted.

Federal programs have HURT hundreds of other communities—and can HURT hundreds more—but Congress needs to hear from you to STOP IT.

Take a minute and send a letter today.
