open minded to all potentials for the state's future, promote the Patriots for Liberty.
It's very important that credible
individuals mainstream the mission of the Patriots for Liberty to our people. Talk about
it with your friends, form discussion groups and otherwise get the word out. Try
to put a positive spin on it: Sure, we're all fed up with Washington, but let's work to put Massachusetts
first because we all care about our liberty, each other and a future of justice and freedom for our children.

Stop Real ID Now!
The Real ID Act of 2005 would turn our state driver’s licenses into a national identity card, infringe privacy, cost
over $20 billion dollars, and impose major burdens on citizens, immigrants, and state governments – while doing nothing
to protect against terrorism.
The 60-day commenting period on recently-published draft regulations offers a great opportunity to stop the Real ID Act in its tracks, by combining a national campaign to solicit comment with
state-by-state battles -- Maine and Idaho have already decided not to participate.
The Stop Real ID Now! activism campaign will leverage social networks, events, and art -- with a goal of submitting over
100,000 comments, collaborating with the ACLU's Real Nightmare campaign and many other groups. Find out more their website ... and get involved!
More information is available at Stop Real ID Coalition
The latest on this Act. "Is your driver's license Real ID compliant? What air travelers should keep in mind."
The goal at OpenMass.org is to help inform and empower civic engagement by providing easy to access information. What
you see today is just the beginning. With your feedback and guidance they can continue to push the envelope of civic
engagement.
About OpenMass
OpenMass brings together official government data with news and blog coverage to give you the real story behind what's
happening in the Massachusetts Legislature. They are currently running in Beta mode. Their goal at OpenMass.org is to
help empower civic engagement by providing easy to acccess information.
OpenMass is modeled after OpenCongress.org, a free, open-source, non-profit, and non-partisan web resource with a mission to make Congress more transparent and to encourage
civic engagement. They are working with OpenCongress to help expand their model to the state level.
OpenMass would not be possible without all of the tireless work performed by the Clerks Office in creating and maintaining
the mass.gov/legis site. They also have gathered news and data from Google News, Google Blog Search and FollowtheMoney.org

Messenger of Truth
Public Outreach Campaign |
 |
|
The Messengers of Truth are volunteers who
will go out to our communities spreading the word of our cause and helping to combat the ignorance that clouds the
minds of our neighbors.
Messengers of Truth will also make themselves available at designated areas (a coffee shop for
example) for the public to come to us. This is less intrusive, however not necessarily the most effective means of public
outreach.
Our mission is to engage people in constructive conversations and talk about our Liberty and what it
means to be an "American."
Each Messenger will use a laptop to show a short presentation, and to aid in providing the
facts to our neighbors. A "kit" will also be provided which will contain various materials from data sheets; promotional
flyers, buttons, bumper stickers; and helpful resources.
A permit may be required from your city or town. More information to follow.
