Sponsored by Coalition for a Prosperous American (CPA) -- Barbecue & discussion: Conservative Christians, both Republican and Democrat, are divided over support for U.S. trade initiatives. A small group of uniquely qualified Christian leaders has studied the issue from all sides and will propose some unifying concepts to help heal the split and move forward.The Coalition for a Prosperous America believes that trade policy is promoting unfairness and foreign country protectionism at the expense of our farmers, manufacturers and our children’s future. Current trade policies are not promoting true free trade. They are not only bad economics, but, many believe, immoral.The program will include a short presentation on a critical topic — economic morality. All CD-5 candidates have been invited to participate. This is a great opportunity to explore a topic fundamental to the economic health and future prospects for our community, interact with the candidates and have your questions answered before the 5th Congressional Assembly on May 30th. speakers: Jim PfaffPresident & Chief Executive OfficerThe Colorado Family Institute (Colorado springs, CO) Evangelical Christian political leader; david Frengel Director of Government Affairs Penn united Technologies, Inc.
