Slouching Towards Sodom

By Jeff Wehr

With new same-sex marriage laws passed in states like Maine, and the legalization of marijuana in states like Washington, the nation is slouching closer and closer to Sodom. These liberal “victories” may seem like the Sunday laws are further down the road, but it may have just the opposite effect of producing such a sudden and heavy pendulum swing to the right.

Lawmakers and Family Lobbyists

By Jeff Wehr

According to the Washington Post, December 30, 2012, “56 relatives of lawmakers have been paid to influence Congress. More than 500 firms have spent more than $400 million on lobbying teams that include the relatives of members. . . . in the past six years, for example, 36 congressional relatives—including spouses, children, siblings, parents and in-laws—have been paid to influence 250 bills passing through their family members congressional committees or sponsored by the members. . . . Most relatives—48 of the 56—began their careers as congressional lobbyists only after they had family members elected to the House or Senate. . . . 73 lawmakers sought bills that benefit industries in which they had significant holdings. . . . 133 lawmakers bought and sold stock in a company lobbying for a bill before them.”

In the end, lawmakers will be pressured to pass a national Sunday law. No doubt some of that pressure will come from lobbyist family members. It is unimaginable that lawmakers may be paid by relatives and friends to pass a law that strikes directly against the separation of church and state and the fourth commandment.
