Dear Philip,

President Obama continues to hold our troops' religious liberties hostage during the partial government shutdown.

And for the second week in a row, members of America's armed forces who rely on contracted clergy and priests are barred from services this Sunday.

Like you, I've been hearing nightmares about how the Obama administration has been purposely targeting members of the military to score political points in the media.

Just yesterday, I was told that sailors stationed at a submarine base in Georgia were forbidden to hold mass on base as the priest contracted to serve them was chained out of the base's chapel.

Even though the chaplain would've gladly volunteered his services without pay!

But while our soldiers, sailors, and Marines suffer, Obama and his cronies receive special treatment to use federal property for things like pro-immigration political theater.

It makes me sick.

We cannot allow Obama and his radical cronies to trample our rights and abuse our brave military.

That's why I hope you'll read my important message below and sign your petition to demand Congress step up to defend our religious liberties.

And after you've signed, I hope you'll consider chipping in $5 or $10 to help fund Public Advocate's efforts on behalf of defending religious freedom from the daily assault of Obama's political agenda.

Thank you.

For the Family,

HON. EUGENE DELGAUDIO
President, Public Advocate of the United States
