If we lose our right to opt out of vaccines which this legislation
foretells, we are going to birthe "insane" generations. And it is no fun for
you
personally!

COULD YOU TAKE A HALF HOUR AND DO THIS? re: Mandatory move on
vaccines...making it hard for parents to choose to opt out of the 37 vaccines
that they
expect your child to endure. This is a bad precedent for the rest of the
country...please forward this to homeschoolers, grandparents, parents, etc.

Think of the future when your friends will have children; children that play
and go to school with your children. 37 vaccines by the time they are
school age. Independent (non pharma linked) scientists have concluded that the
generations of epidemic ADD, ADHD, Autism, inability to focus and depression is
coming from the vaccines. This is a ploy to make it harder for you to get
an exemption. The State should not tell us what to inject into our
bodies.Infants as young as 12 hours old get a heptatitis B vaccine. If you
want to
know more about the vaccine issue go to _www.vaclib.org_
(http://www.vaclib.org/) or see our website _www.ProgressiveConvergence.com_
(http://www.progressiveconvergence.com/) vaccine with reports on 2500 suicides
and homicides for
people who because of the dammage to them via the vaccines are on
anti-psychotic drugs.

SAMPLE OF WHAT TO WRITE IS BELOW the introduction to the problem. ALONG WITH
WHO TO WRITE TO AND A WEBSITE TO IDENTIFY YOUR REPRESENTATIVE.

PLEASE SPREAD THIS TO ALL YOUR NEW YORK STATE FRIENDS AND RELATIVES.

If you have the time, this 3-part You Tube video is quite illustrative of
what parents are dealing with in New York where the sincerity of their
religious beliefs is being challenged.
CMS
Subject: MANDATORY VACCINES


Parents in NY State who choose to opt out of mandatory vaccines for their
children, are being subjected to intrusive "sincerity tests" of their
religious beliefs. In the State of NY, a religious exemption is the only way
to opt out of vaccines you don't deem necessary or safe for your child,
unless you qualify for a medical exemption, which is nearly impossible to
receive, due to pressure on doctors. To address this unconstitutional
practice, a new bill is about to be presented to the floor of the NY State
Assembly. It's presentation to lawmakers is generally accompanied by
"Memorandums of Support" (bill memos) from concerned citizens and groups.
The impact that these bill memos have is enormous, as all assemblypersons
are provided copies of all bill memos when they receive their bill packets,
prior to the bill's presentation on the Assembly floor. Please join the
parents of NY in support of legislation to end this abusive scrutiny of
conscience.

The following links offer some basic background information on this
important issue:

ACTION TO TAKE

We need for you to send in a bill memo. Below are samples of bill memos
from organizations and individuals, to guide you as to format. SHORT IS OK.
THE NEW BILL NUMBER for the religious exemption bill is A.883

- If you are an individual:
You must write to your representative asking for his/her support and vote
for the bill when it comes to the floor of the Assembly. State why you
think the bill is important, including whether you have been subjected to
sincerity testing yourself, or other relevant experience or information. It
is best to keep in mind this bill's goals. You must also write to Richard
N. Gottfried, Chair, NYS Assembly Committee on Health,
_gottfrr@..._ (mailto:gottfrr@...) ; the
Speaker of the Assembly, Sheldon Silver
_speaker@..._ (mailto:speaker@...) or you
can make them a "cc." You can find your
representative at _http://nymap.elections.state.ny.us/nysboe/_
(http://nymap.elections.state.ny.us/nysboe/) or
_http://takeaction.lwv.org/lwv/dbq/officials/_
(http://takeaction.lwv.org/lwv/dbq/officials/)

- If you are an organization that is NATIONAL,
then write a memo and urge your NY affiliate, if you have one, to write a
memo, or put both your names on it. In fact, a memo can have more than one
organization's name on it, if that is helpful to save time (but may be more
work).

- If you are an out-of-state organization with national readers (like
PROVE),
urge your NEW YORK STATE MEMBERS OR READERS to follow instructions for
"individual." There is no reason to have people from out of state write,
unless the person is a leader of a national organization or a well-known
organization.

- If you are an MD, do all. IF YOU ARE AN M.D. WITH a professional
affiliation that would support either or both bills,
get those memos done from your organization if possible, otherwise, from
yourself.
The memos must be sent to the office of: (Richard N. Gottfried, Chair, NYS
Assembly Committee on Health), _gottfrr@..._
(mailto:gottfrr@...) ; the Assembly
Majority Leader, Ron Canestrari, _canestr@..._
(mailto:canestr@...) ; the Speaker
of the Assembly, Sheldon Silver _speaker@..._
(mailto:speaker@...) ; and to your
representative, who you can find at
_http://nymap.elections.state.ny.us/nysboe/_
(http://nymap.elections.state.ny.us/nysboe/) or
_http://takeaction.lwv.org/lwv/dbq/officials/_
(http://takeaction.lwv.org/lwv/dbq/officials/)

People who do not have email can send the letters addressed to the
appropriate legislator, at Legislative Office Building, Albany, NY 12248.
Letters may also be faxed.


Please post this information as widely as you can.

SAMPLE MEMO OF SUPPORT

Here is an example of an individual Memo of Support for you to send to the
above elected officials:

MEMORANDUM OF SUPPORT

School Vaccination Religious Exemption
A.883 (Gottfried, et. Al)

We would like to express our enthusiastic support for the above referenced
bills. We applaud Assemblyman Gottfried's initiative and responsiveness.
It is past time that New York ended the widespread practice of sincerity
testing of parents who claim religious exemption to vaccine requirements.
Such actions represent a clear violation of 1st Amendment rights and as
such, are clearly out of step with the state's real mandate, which is to
protect the health of children. Defending against such action is incredibly
costly, leaving all but the most financially secure families in a catch 22
(pay for a lawyer against a school system with unlimited resources or pay
for private school). It is such tactics that have spurred 19 states to pass
philosophical exemptions in order to protect families from such shameful
bullying. Sadly, New York is not yet among them.

We look forward to the Assembly's passage of this bill and hope that these
improved protections of the constitutionally guaranteed right to religious
freedom will free parents from this appalling struggle. If New York is
really committed to protecting the health of its children, then Commissioner
Daines should refocus his efforts toward supporting local, sustainable
agriculture, farm to school lunch programs and the institution of a
statewide Junk Food tax. Such measures will have a significantly more
powerful impact on protecting the immune systems, and therefore the overall
health, of New York's children. The present philosophy of mandating
vaccination is based on fear and inadequate clinical data and serves only to
enrich pharmaceutical firms, who, thanks to legislation enacted by former
President Bush, enjoy COMPLETE FEDERAL IMMUNITY from any and all litigation
arising from reactions suffered by vaccine recipients. Please take this
opportunity to show that New York's government does not pander to such
powerful special interests, but instead, responds to the real needs of the
citizenry.
