ACLJ Releases Petition to Free Wrongfully Imprisoned U.S. Pastor
- Details
- By Christian Newswire
WASHINGTON -- Yesterday, the American Law and Justice Center (ACLJ) published a petition to release John Cao, a U.S. pastor imprisoned in China on fabricated organizing illegal border crossing charges.
Cao, whose family resides in North Carolina, was arrested by Chinese officials in March 2017 as he crossed the border between Myanmar and China. He was charged with "organizing illegal border crossings" and sentenced to seven years in prison earlier this year. As a missionary renowned for providing education for more than 2,000 impoverished children in Myanmar, Cao often made this journey with no previous incident, indicating that officials framed him with the charge as part of their wider crackdown on Chinese Christians.
What's Hiding in Obamacare?
- Details
- By Tony Perkins
Remember "we have to pass Obamacare to find out what's in it?" Well, in some cases, "you have to buy it to find out what's in it." And all too often, what's in it is abortion.
Under the last administration, the government did everything it could to keep consumers in the dark about their plans. They even got insurers involved, blocking companies from explaining the abortion surcharges up front. In other words, most Americans who were shopping for a plan on the exchange had to wait until they got their statement of benefits until they knew if the policy violated their beliefs. And even then, they might not even know how much the abortion surcharge was!
