Dear Friends of Liberty,

We need to spread the word about the assault on our liberties and property. Unfortunately, the political elite do not take our Republican form of government seriously and those who have taken an oath to defend the Constitution (in both parties, in all branches of government) appear to ignore their obligations unless it serves their short term political interests. Therefore, it is up to you all to fight for our Republic, our rights, our property and our traditions. Please invite your friends and family to sign up for the Liberty Coalition email newsletter and encourage them to take actions promoted by our liberty loving partners. www.libertycoalition.net

In Liberty,

Michael D. Ostrolenk, National Director, Liberty Coalition
