CWA Says 'Freedom Winter '06' Does Not Speak for the Next Generation

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4 /Christian Wire Service/ -- Concerned Women for America (CWA) criticized the Feminist Majority Foundation's "Freedom Winter '06" gathering as both manipulative and a waste of time. The event is a political ploy to use college students to advance their agenda of keeping Judge Alito off the Supreme Court.

"These students would do themselves and the country better service if they stayed home and familiarized themselves with the Constitution and Judge Alito's opinions," said Jan LaRue, CWA's Chief Counsel. "They know not of what they speak."

Lanier Swann, CWA's Director of Government Relations said, "According to a recently released Washington Post-ABC News poll, 54 percent of Americans want Judge Alito confirmed. Clearly, the left's attempt to portray the majority of Americans as against Judge Alito is a fraud. 'Freedom Winter '06' is just another distortion by the left of the fact that the American people stand behind Judge Alito."

Concerned Women for America (CWA) is the nation's largest public policy women's organization.
