| New Nebraska Defense of Marriage Group Formed to get LDS Out-of-State Money |
| The new group supporting Nebraska's Defense of the Marriage Act was started after the initial committee refused an offer of
$600,000 from members of the LDS Church, according to a new article in the
Lincoln Journal Star, which first wrote about the group's formation last
week. The original group supporting the act, the Defense of the Marriage Act
Committee, collected more than 156,000 signatures to get the petition on the
November ballot, but turned down the money because it had earlier promised
to solicit funds only in Nebraska. |
| An LDS Candidate's Hunger Strike for Debate |
| If you think it is not fair that US presidential
candidate Ralph Nader has been excluded from the presidential debates, you
may also agree with Jeremy Friedbaum. The candidate for Governor of Utah
from the conservative Independent American Party is on a 40-day hunger
strike seeking a place in the debates between Republican incumbent Governor
Mike Leavitt and his Democratic challenger Bill Orton. Like Leavitt and
Orton, Friedbaum is an LDS Church member. |
