This is the fight Republicans were elected to fight

Fairfax, Va. – As the U.S. Senate approaches a Dec. 3 deadline for passing a Continuing Resolution funding bill to keep the government open, Americans for Limited Government (ALG) has launched a nationwide campaign aimed at ensuring not a single taxpayer dime is used to pay for the enforcement of President Joe Biden’s unconstitutional COVID vaccine mandates. ALG President Richard Manning issued the following statement:

“This is the fight Republicans were elected to fight. Biden’s unconstitutional federal government overreach is a classic battle between those who believe in limited government powers versus those who believe there is no end to what the federal government can do. There is no good reason for Republicans to vote for any spending bill that funds the enforcement of Biden’s vaccine mandates. Not a single one.

“Americans for Limited Government has launched a nationwide digital campaign asking Americans to urge their Senators and Members of Congress to reject any spending bill that funds enforcement of unconstitutional vaccine mandates.

“While it is good Senate Republicans plan to vote for an amendment to the Continuing Resolution that would defund vaccine mandates, what really matters is if those same Republicans hold firm and vote no on the bill itself, should the amendment fail.

“It is time to end Washington, D.C. showboating. Republicans cannot have it both ways. A vote to fund the unconstitutional Biden vaccine mandates is just that, no excuses. Congressional Republicans need to put their vote where their mouth is by refusing to fund the enforcement of the dramatic expansion of federal government power over individual liberties.

“Americans want their elected officials to do more than just talk a good game. Americans are losing their jobs due to these mandates.  Americans traveling back into the country will be forcibly quarantined while illegals will be passed through with no consequences.  Talk is cheap, now is a time for action – defund the vax mandates now!”

ALG’s Take Action:

URGE YOUR SENATOR AND MEMBER OF CONGRESS TO DEFUND

BIDEN’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL VACCINE MANDATE & QUARANTINES.

Nov. 19, 2021, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement reacting to the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse:

“Justice was served in the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse, breathing new life into the presumption of innocence and upholding the fundamental principle of the right to self defense. The jury, which has been subject to death threats and intimidation, has proven they were willing to put that aside to uphold the American system of justice and the presumption of innocence. It is our prayer that they are left alone and able to return to their regular lives as unsung, anonymous heroes defending liberty and the justice system that is essential for the rule of law to prevail.

“The irresponsible major media companies and the President of the United States that each tried and convicted Rittenhouse based upon deliberate misinformation and libel should be held accountable by Mr. Rittenhouse using our nation’s tort system. Let justice be done.”

Nov. 16, 2021, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement in response to ongoing jury deliberations in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial:

“Kyle Rittenhouse defended himself from three violent rioters in a mob that was chasing him last August. This has been one of the clearest cases of self defense ever caught on camera. Almost every assertion by the prosecution about Rittenhouse’s supposed aggression on video was belied by the video shown to the jury. The travesty of this case is that it was tried at all, putting the jurors and the city of Kenosha once again in the crosshairs of even more mob violence should the verdict go against the mob. Unfortunately, this is the natural conclusion of the Antifa and BLM mob violence that beset the country through most of 2020.

“In an ironic note, the local Kenosha prosecutor and the Biden Justice Department, declined to prosecute the officer who shot Jacob Blake, the catalyst of the Kenosha riots. There, they ruled it was reasonable self defense for the officer involved. Yet, Rittenhouse, who clearly was defending himself as well, has been prosecuted because he was a private citizen.”
