2 Constitution Amendments Needed

  • Monday, July 6, 2015

I have just sent my federal and state representatives the following message: 

"Dear ...,  

First, let me thank you for your service. 

Since the Declaration of Independence lists life as the first inalienable right and since the family is the fundamental unit of society and in accordance with Article V of the U.S. Constitution, I would respectfully request the consideration of two amendments to the U.S. Constitution. 

The first amendment I propose would protect human life from the moment of conception until the moment of natural death. The second amendment I propose would define marriage as a covenant between one man and one woman under the Creator. 

Thank you for your consideration."

I would encourage each of you to contact your representatives and let them know your views. 

Philip W. Haymaker, Sr.
