September has arrived and along with it the “Campaign Season”

On September 14, 2016, we will welcome our Associate member

Kevin Moss and Jessica Davidson, an active Republican friend and

mother from Keizer, to relate their experiences in Cleveland, Ohio,

at the National Republican Convention, July 18 – 21, 2016. Both

were elected as Alternate Delegates and were able to take part in

all of the related activities. What was the mood of the other

delegates attending? Which speakers were the most meaningful?

Was the TV coverage truthful and accurate? Was Cleveland a

good convention host? All this and more will be shared at

Francis Xavier’s Restaurant, 1933 N. E. 181st Ave., conveniently

located on the corner of N.E. 181st and San Rafael Street, just

South of the I-84 Freeway. No reservations are required and there

is plenty of free parking.

Please arrive early to visit, sign the guestbook, and make your

choice from their delicious full service menu (breakfast served all

day). Our Business Meeting opens at 11:30 AM with our

speakers to follow at approximately 12:15 PM. We always have

time for questions and discussion regarding the latest political

information. Both man and women are encouraged to attend.

Our goal is to communicate, educate and continue to promote a

Conservative Government. As Oregonians, we must all do our part

to preserve our United States of America. Call and volunteer to put

up signs, talk to your neighbors, friends, co-workers, gym-mates

and all others. Higher taxes and government mandates are not the

American way. We need to help rebuild our small businesses so

that they may grow and prosper and create more jobs for others.

Elections are not won on Election Day – but through the work in the months leading up to it.

September 27th Celestia Bue

Hats off to our Favorite Democrat – that thinks &

acts like a Republican!!! Betsy Johnson, State

Senator District #16, from Scappoose wrote a

sensible piece in the Oregonian about a ballot

measure Senate Bill 439, IP-67, that will appear

on the November 8 ballot. A proposal to take

$22 million a year from the Lottery’s Economic

Development Fund and spend it on Outdoor

School for fifth and sixth graders. This would

jeopardize some valuable working programs.

She praised Sen. Kim Thatcher, the only No vote

in the Senate, for seeing through all the rosy hues

and promises for the truth, more taxes for the

people.

The stakes are high for this November 8 Election.

The newly elected President will have the

opportunity to select, for congressional approval,

at least three Supreme Court Justices whose

decisions will guide the future of our country. We

will be long gone, but our children and

grandchildnen will have to live under their

decisions. It is vitally important that everyone

realize the future of our United States and the

Constitution is at stake. At this time many

decisions are pending due to the 4-4 tie vote. Our

First Amendment, Freedom of Speech rights which

include, religious freedoms, are threatened. Our

Second Amendment, Right to Bear Arms is in

danger of disappearing. The death penalty,

affirmative action, immigration and voting laws

are all equally in danger.

We can only hope the new Justices will follow

in Justice Antonin Scalia’s footsteps by “The

meaning of laws is fixed by the meaning ascribed

to their words at the time they were enacted”. In

other words, the meaning of the words should not

be changed or be creatively interpreted in any

other way.

We must preserve the structure of our

government under the Constitution which is

designed to prevent accumulation of power and

oppression of the people. The Constitution

separates powers between the Executive,

Legislative and Judicial branches of the Federal

Government. These protections are under threat

today. Future cases would be jeopardized by an

uneven Liberal or Conservative balance. This

could be the most legally significant event for our

country in generations.

In the words of Supreme Court Justice

Clarence Thomas, “the words duty Honor,

country used to mean something, to signify

citizen responsibility but now that’s a

bygone era.”

A Patriotic Reminder: Have you been writing “In God We Trust” on all your envelopes? A

lot of us have forgotten to do this. One of our favorite members, Jefferson County

Commissioner Mae Huston, always proudly writes patriotic messages on her outgoing mail. A simple statement sharing our love of country and our pride in making it great again sends a message to all it passes through. We should

all follow her example.

While on your travels during these past Summer months, did you remember to gather the small containers of soap, lotion and shampoo for our

ongoing Pregnancy Resource Centers Community Service Project? Please bring them to our meeting

and they will be delivered promptly.

Our next Executive Board meeting will be September 28,

2016, 11 AM at Elmer’s in

Gresham.

Ben Franklin was asked at the end of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, “What was accomplished? “ He replied

“A Republic, if you can keep it.”

Please share your extra love, hugs, smiles and prayers with those members and their families, who just need a little extra TLC to cope with their heavy

burdens.
