- Southwest Michigan Liberty Council will hold the first in a series of six "Politics, Pizza and Pop" discussion meetings to be held at various locations in Southwestern Michigan. The meetings are open to everyone. Bill Bradley, Chairman of the Van Buren County Libertarian Party will lead a discussion on the topic "Losing Our Rights and What We Can do About It". Today, Government at all levels is stripping us of our personal and property rights with an increasing barrage of improper legislation that would cause a second revolution if the founding fathers were alive today. For example, your name on a property deed only means you get to pay the taxes For just about anything else, you need, or soon will need, government permission.

- Save Money - Oppose Unfair Laws - Defeat SB509
by Leonard Schwartz
www.SpeakOutMichigan.org -- Help Defeat Senate Bill 509
Traffic laws should be used to promote traffic safety.
They should not be a disguised form of taxation. To raise
revenue, some local governments already abuse traffic laws
by setting unreasonably low speed limits and unnecessary
stop signs.
Senate Bill 509 would create an annual driver
responsibility fee. The penalty (based on the number of
points and type of tickets, for which there still are large
fines) can be $1000 a year.
It mandates the suspension of the license of everyone
who doesn't promptly pay. This is especially harsh on those
who cannot afford to pay.
Even if you have no traffic tickets, please ask your
state senator and representative to oppose Senate Bill 509.
SpeakOutMichigan.org provides an easy way for you to
send e-mail to them. It provides a prewritten letter, to
which you can add personal comments. Type in your zip code
and SpeakOutMichigan.org will identify your state
legislators and send them the letter. It takes only a minute
or two.
SpeakOutMichigan.org also provides an easy way for you
to send e-mail to your friends so that you can ask them to
contact their state legislators. Again there is a prewritten
letter.
Show that you oppose the use of traffic laws as a
disguised form of taxation.
Show that you care about people who have already paid
large traffic fines and cannot afford to pay the outrageous
annual penalty.
Help defeat Senate Bill 509.
The Libertarian Party of Michigan sponsors
www.SpeakOutMichigan.org as a public service.
