Last year, Congressman Ron Paul led the charge in Congress to keep federal funds from paying for universal or mandatory mental-health screening of children. Our efforts were successful in exposing the undermining of parents' right to decide what is best for their children. ... Despite the outpouring of public support we were able to generate (thank you!) and the media's coverage, Congress did not find the political will to protect the family as the 108th Congress came to a close. But this is a new Congress, and as promised, we are not giving up." [includes petition link]
