Today, Downsize DC President Jim Babka has a talk-radio interview. He’s got another one tomorrow, and then Sunday, his own radio show — the Downsize DC Conference Call. Our team already has two more scheduled for next week. The Downsize DC crew is working hard. I’ll share the details of this afternoon’s interview (Friday), later in this message. :::
But first, I have something important to say…:::
Medical Marijuana Champion Freed
Many of you are probably aware of the ordeal of Steve Kubby, and many others of you probably aren’t. In either case, we encourage you to go to The Kubby Chronicles to learn of the major victory for liberty Steve attained after seven long scary and stressful years. These included dealing with a life-threatening illness and filing for refugee status in Canada.::::::True, Steve Kubby should never have had to spend one minute in jail, and he’s just been released after 62 days. But the good news is that (in Kubby’s own words) . . .:::
Tag and Track Congress… After all, they should set the example
Today is the one year anniversary of the passage of the Real ID Act in the U.S. Senate . . .

Fighting the threat of inflation
Today’s Downsizer-Dispatch . . .:::
Please forward to friends who value the value of their money.:::
* In 1913 $20 bought an ounce of gold.:::* In the 1930s that ounce of gold cost $35 dollars.:::* In the late 60s and early 70s Nixon devalued the dollar relative to gold by 8% and then 10%:::* Then Nixon ended the dollar’s gold backing completely.:::
Two things happened . . .:::
Correcting my mistake + Babka’s letter to the New Hampshire Senate
Correcting my mistake + Babka’s letter to the New Hampshire Senate
REAL ID victory possible in New Hampshire if we help!
Today’s Downsizer-Dispatch . . .:::
URGENT ACTION NEEDED URGENTLY! (did we mention that this is urgent?)::::
The New Hampshire House has voted to NOT comply with the REAL ID Act! The governor has said he will sign this non-compliance bill if it comes to his desk! The matter now rests in the hands of the New Hampshire Senate — a mere 24 people! If New Hampshire rejects the REAL ID program it could pave the way for other states to do the same. And the pressure could grow for Congress to repeal the REAL ID Act! :::
The New Hampshire Senate is set to vote tomorrow!:::
What happens in New Hampshire tomorrow affects not only the people in that state, but potentially all of us. It could mark the beginning of the end for the REAL ID Act. So we’re going to do something a little different. Normally all of our efforts are aimed at the U.S. Congress. But now we want you to contact the New Hampshire Senate. We want you to encourage them NOT to comply with the REAL ID Act!:::
