| Obama Takes Aim At Second Amendment, Culture War Rages On |
Obama Takes Aim At Second Amendment "The biggest problems that we're facing right now have to do with [the president] trying to bring more and more power into the executive branch and not go through Congress at all. And that's what I intend to reverse when I'm president of the United States of America." Those words could have been spoken by any conservative in opposition to President Obama's newly announced executive actions targeting Second Amendment rights. But they weren't. |

| Four Stars For Honesty, A Victory In Utah |
We Need You! Please help American Values make the most of our generous year-end, matching gift opportunity! There are only three days left in 2015. In the last couple of weeks, I have been in multiple meetings and on conference calls strategizing for 2016 with leaders representing every facet of the conservative movement. While I can't divulge the details of those meetings, I have been reminded again that it doesn't really matter what your number one issue is. |
| Graham's Call To Arms |
We Need You! Please help American Values make the most of our generous matching gift opportunity! Franklin Graham is sounding the alarm, urging more men and women of faith to engage in the culture war. American Values is on the front lines, fighting for faith, family and freedom. Please stand with me today. Help us defend our values. Graham's Call To Arms |
| Obama Appeases The Ayatollah, Again |
We Need You! Please help American Values make the most of our generous matching gift opportunity! 2015 was an unbelievable and unpredictable year, with many disappointments along the way. I'm no prophet, but I expect 2016 will be just as unpredictable with many battles in the good fight for life, faith and family. American Values needs your support to stay on front lines fighting for our values. |
| Trump & Terrorism, Religious Liberty In The Crosshairs |
We Need You! Please help American Values make the most of our generous matching gift opportunity! We are making progress in our year-end fundraising campaign, but we are still a long way from meeting our goal. Counting pledges and funds we know are coming in the next few weeks, we are about $250,000 short of meeting our needs. |
| A Tale Of Two Elementary Schools, Our Broken Immigration System |
We Need You! As we send this report, our staff is monitoring online receipts and sorting through the mail. Support is coming in (Thank you!), but we are still way behind where we need to be. I don't want to give you the impression that we are depressed. You have always come through for us in the past! And we are counting on you again. Sometimes it is difficult to quantify what we do here in Washington. Let me give you one example of how our work is making a difference for our values. |
| Another Bad Deal, What's Wrong At Wheaton?, Obama's Failure |
We Need You! Like most non-profit organizations and ministries, year-end giving accounts for a tremendous portion of our annual budget. And we REALLY need your support right now. We are a long, long way from closing a serious budget gap. The good news is that we have a tremendous matching gift opportunity! Please help keep us going by making a generous, tax-deductible gift today! Another Bad Deal |
| The New "Gotcha" Question, "Keep God First" |
140 One hundred forty of you responded to my appeal for support yesterday. It was the best day of giving we have had so far this month. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! We really need 16 more of those days. While I deeply appreciate the generous support from that faithful 140, I know that thousands of people who receive this daily report have never invested in our work. Every day we get messages telling us that this is the best news and commentary they read. Messages like this one from Herb in Florida: |
| You Make It Happen, Debate Night , Good News In New York |
You Make It Happen I want to take a moment to explain why you have been receiving daily messages from American Values asking for your support. In recent months, because of health and financial issues, we have lost a couple of very significant donors we relied on over the years. That loss has left us nearly $350,000 behind what we need to adequately fund our programs in 2016, which will be an extremely important year. |
