Support a Foreign Lobby Registration Act
Lobbies working on behalf of foreign governments in our nation’s capital inhibit the formation of foreign policies that are in our own national interest. We urge you to send the following petition supporting a Foreign Lobby Registration Act (FLORA) to your representative and the president. Such an act would make lobbies supporting foreign governments more transparent and accountable to the American people. It would also make clear that those lobbies do not work on behalf of American interests but, in fact, work to support the narrow interests of a foreign government.

An array of Jewish groups nationwide is just now beginning to spend the $14 million of the $25 million mandated by Congress in 2005 to secure at-risk nonprofit groups.

… Israel's decision to hit the power plant was a surprise in large part "because it was American-owned". …
