Parental Rights Cosponsor Drive

In order to pass the Parental Rights Amendment we need bipartisan support from those in Congress, and we are planning a Cosponsor Drive for Tuesday, July 21, through Thursday, July 23. In this nationwide effort to get support for the Parental Rights Amendment, we will be calling all members of the U.S. House and Senate who are not already cosponsors. If your U.S. Representative and Senators are not cosponsors, we need you to call them during the three-day Cosponsor Drive.

U.S. Representatives who are not cosponsors of the Parental Rights Amendment:

Representative G.K. Butterfield (NC-01) - (202) 225-3101
Representative Bob Etheridge (NC-02) - (202) 225-4531
Representative David Price (NC-04) - (202) 225-1784
Representative Virginia Foxx (NC-05) - (202) 225-2071
Representative Howard Coble (NC-06) - (202) 225-3065
Representative Larry Kissell (NC-08) - (202) 225-5711
Representative Heath Shuler (NC-11) - (202) 225-6401
Representative Mel Watt (NC-12) - (202) 225-1510
Representative Brad Miller (NC-13) ? (202) 225-3032

If any of these is your Representative, we need you to call their office sometime during our three-day Cosponsor Drive and urge them to cosponsor H.J.Res. 42, the Parental Rights Amendment, in the House (find your Representative by typing your zip code into the box here.) We are especially targeting Congressmen in the Congressional Blue Dog Coalition. Securing this group of Democrats will make the Parental Rights Amendment a truly bi-partisan issue in the House, as it already is among the voters.

If your Representative is not listed above, please send an email thanking them for cosponsoring the Parental Rights Amendment. Thanking those who cosponsor lets them know we appreciate their support. To view the list of current cosponsors, click here.

The Parental Rights Amendment was also introduced in the U.S. Senate this past May by Senator DeMint, and it's time to get Senate cosponsors! Call your Senators and urge them to cosponsor S.J.Res.16, the Parental Rights Amendment, in the Senate.

Senator Richard Burr ? (202) 224-3154
Senator Kay Hagan ? (202) 224-6342

Thank you for your participation in this important Congressional Phone Blitz right before Congress adjourns for the summer. Senators and Representatives will soon return to their home districts for the August summer work period. ParentalRights.Org is organizing visits to local Congressional offices by 20 constituents with 1,000 activist signatures, to be scheduled during that time. A face-to-face group meeting with your Congressman is an extremely powerful and effective way to communicate clearly the message of the Parental Rights Amendment. If you would like to participate in these local meetings please contact Region 4 Grassroots Coordinator Noah Oberlander (noah@parentalrights.org).
