    Mr. & Mrs. Jack Green is sponsoring your Grassfire and...

      And it’s you! That’s right. Because you decided to take a
      moment to sign this
      petition to SUPPORT THE BOY SCOUTS
      you’re helping start a grassfire
      on the Internet that will get
      attention and have real impact.

      Just a few minutes of your time right now, and in a few days
      YOU’LL SEE YOUR IMPACT GROW EXPONENTIALLY!
      That’s because
      Grassfire.net is unlike anything you’ve seen 
      on the Internet. Our
      breakthrough e-mail interface and tracking
      system will allow
      you to chart your impact as it grows
      --empowering you to influence
      hundreds or even thousands of
      people on this vital issue.

    Back in June of 2000, the Supreme Court ruled that the Boy Scouts of America had the authority and right to set the criteria for their leadership, because they were a private organization. The ruling stemmed from a lawsuit filed by a man who was told by the Scouts that he could not hold a position of authority over young boys because he was a homosexual. 

    The victory for the Scouts and for what they stand for was short-lived, as many United Way chapters from around the nation—who were the primary source of funding for the Scouts for decades, adopted non-discriminatory policies that required the Scouts to allow homosexual leadership, or risk losing funding.

    These attacks against the Scouts have been accelerating across the country. Already, at least 21 states, and 64 United Way agencies have de-funded the Scouts because of their refusal to allow homosexual leaders.

    Unfortunately, United Way’s attacks against the Scouts have taken a serious toll. Boy Scout councils around the nation are in desperate financial situations, and programs that benefit our communities are at risk of being shut down. That's why we need you to stand with the Scouts and show your support by signing this petition.

         
          PETITION TO SUPPORT THE BOY SCOUTS!!
          As a concerned citizen, I am deeply troubled by 
          the recent attacks which have come against the 
          Boy Scouts simply because the Scouts have taken a stand for faith and moral values. As a private
          organization, the Boy Scouts has every right to 
          set standards for leadership and morality. The 
          U.S. Supreme Court made this clear! I urge you to
          cease these hostile attacks against one of
          America's great institutions.
