What took us 50 years to build since the war on drugs from nixon will take us decades to undo. We are thrilled to be working with koch industries. We are thrilled to be working with the american legislative executive council. We are thrilled to work with Interest Groups who come to this not just for the economic imperative but with a moral imperative. At the end of the day this is not just about balancing budgets. This is about to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. This is about turning the other cheek. This is about whether or not america is a country that believes in the value of redemption and whether each one of us should be judged for the rest of our lives for the worst act we have done on our worst day of our life.

About how the end of the civil war led to that amendment and eventually the 15th amendment that gave africanamerican males the right to vote. The africanamerican civil war and museum hosted this 35 minute event. Frank my name is frank smith and i am the director of the museum. For this purpose this weekend i am the host of the grand review committee, welcoming thousands of marchers and reenactors and descendents to washington, d. C.

This afternoon at the museum we are going to have a Panel Discussion including three knowledgeable, informed pers

On january 27th of this year, 15 months after the initial request, i sent you a letter asking for prompt action on the request, and to keep me informed on the response that would be forthcoming. Despite additional inquiries, the only answer i received so far is, were working on it. Its now been 20 months.

Numbers it is still something that is at a young age and something i would like to point out if it is great for the fight to have their resources create faculty and faithbased undocumented youth but its also important to note a lot of Higher Education comes from high school and it starts from there. That is very important to point out. Send the mouse ever mentioning about faithbased. I actually had the opportunity to talk to my counselor when she actually encouraged me.
