Freedom of Religion

Our founders intended for Americans to have freedom to practice their religious beliefs without government intervention, but these day the practice of religion is being redefined by law, policy, and practice of an overreaching federal government.  The Affordable Care Act is one law that has brought this conflict into view of the American people as many non-profits and privately held corporations challenge Obamacare mandates that require people of faith to act against their deeply held beliefs.

This morning at 10 am the case of Conestoga v. Sebelius is being argued in the Supreme Court.  This case has far-reaching implications and it is imperative that SCOTUS comes to a Constitutionally sound decision.  To understand the details of this case click here.

Special Thanks

SUNACRW thanks everyone who participated in our project with our sister chapter in Perry County to support the Clouse family after their devastating fire last month.  We were able to take a load of cleaning and household supplies, snacks  and gift cards to them last week.  Thanks to those who decided to make direct monetary donations to the Clouse Family Fund.  Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

SUNACRW and RWRG join together to help Clouse Family

SUN Area Council of Republican Women is collecting donations of non-perishable food items, consumable household products and retail gift cards for the Ted and Janelle Clouse family who lost 7 of their children in a devastating farmhouse fire on Wednesday evening in rural Perry County. 

In addition SUNACRW is partnering with our sister council, Perry County Republican Women for Responsible Government, to provide meals for the farm and cleanup crews in the next weeks and hold a fundraising event.

Anyone who would like to donate items may contact Carolyn Conner at 768-6862 or Irene Harris at 374-0876.  Gift cards may be sent to SUNACRW, P.O. Box 185, West Milton PA 17886.
