MEDIA ADVISORY, April 13 /Christian Newswire/ -- Faith2Action is announcing the immediate purchase of national airtime on Fox News Channel and locally in the Washington , D.C. market. 

"Our freedom is in peril," declares Faith2Action President, Janet Folger, host of a live, daily, nationally syndicated radio program, and writer of a weekly column for WorldNetDaily. 

On Tuesday, the U.S. House will begin hearings on a bill that would expand the definition of hate crimes to include "thought crimes" against homosexuality (H.R. 1592).   The provisions of this bill make it a very serious threat to the freedom of speech for every American.
 

Faith2Action will begin running ads featuring Philadelphia grandmothers who where thrown in jail simply for sharing their faith on a public sidewalk.  They were accused of  violating Pennsylvania's "hate crimes" law and faced the possibility of 47 years in prison.   (The ads can also be seen on the internet at www.StopHateCrimesNow.com)
 

"If they can throw these grandmas in jail," Folger states, "then we are all at risk of the same fate unless we stop this hate crimes bill from becoming law."  Folger's recent article "Conyers' 'Hate Grandma' bill introduced in House" can be found at: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54879.

 
Janet Folger is available for interviews this weekend and can be reached through Wanda Sanchez at: 209-534-0335.
