1. Trump signs tariffs on steel, aluminum as national security 'necessity'
- The White House
"In a meeting with factory workers at the White House, [President Donald J.] Trump said the tariffs of 25 percent on steel and 10 percent on aluminum keep his campaign pledge to rescue the domestic industries and protect national security," Dave Boyer reports in The Washington Times.
"We want our workers to be protected. We have to protect and build our steel and aluminum industries," President Trump said before he signed the two proclamations in the Roosevelt Room.

2. Trump Creates Prison Reform Council - Free Beacon
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to create a new, interagency federal council to report on federal prison reentry policy, continuing the administration's ongoing focus on prison reform.
The Federal Interagency Council on Crime Prevention and Improving Reentry will bring together representatives from 11 executive departments and offices, ranging the Department of the Education to the Office of National Drug Control Policy. The representatives appointed to the council will be responsible for producing recommendations for evidence-based reforms to improve federal support for programs which cut offending and recidivating.
Those programs include both pre-offense programs-including support for mental and behavioral health services-and access to resources for inmates to help them reintegrate with society once their time is served. Those resources would include better access to education, mentorship, substance abuse treatment, and mental and behavioral health treatment. (Read more)
3. President Trump is About to Defund Planned Parenthood Again By Yanking Its Sex Ed Funds - Lifenews.com
The Trump administration has put a pro-life advocate in charge of one of Planned Parenthood's major taxpayer funding streams. And, unsurprisingly the abortion chain is very angry about it.
Politico reports Valerie Huber, a Trump appointee to the Department of Health and Human Services, will have the final say about the groups that receive money from the $286 million Title X program, which funds family planning services. Huber, a longtime leader in sexual risk avoidance programs, is the acting deputy assistant secretary for population affairs at HHS. Pro-life organizations praised President Donald Trump for nominating her and other pro-life leaders to his administration last year.
According to Politico, the HHS office recently made several policy changes related to the Title X program, including the funding approval process. Previously, a regional health official, the HHS deputy assistant secretary for population affairs and the assistant secretary for health gave the final approval; however, now the final decision is solely Huber's. An HHS spokesperson said the policy change will "streamline administrative function" and make the process similar to other government grant programs.
But the move has the top abortion chain in America (Planned Parenthood) worried about its future. (Read more)
4. This Year Marks the Strongest Average Monthly Job Growth in Over Two Decades - The White House
The U.S. economy continues to show signs of a strong economy in the second month of 2018.
The monthly Employment Situation Report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released this morning shows that nonfarm payroll employment rose by 313,000 in February. Paired with strong job growth in January, February's numbers mean 2018 has now registered the strongest average monthly job growth since 1997. Since January 2017, 2.5 million jobs have been added to the economy.
Today's BLS report suggests that the President's pro-growth policy agenda continues to translate into increased employment opportunities for American workers. (Read more)
5. President Trump agrees to meet North Korea's Kim Jong-un - The White House
Security Advisor Chung Eui-Yong delivered news that President Donald J. Trump's maximum pressure policy-together with international solidarity driven by American leadership-had brought the North Korea situation to an important juncture.
"Today, I had the privilege of briefing President Trump on my recent visit to Pyongyang, North Korea," Chung said. "In our meeting, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un said he is committed to denuclearization. Kim pledged that North Korea will refrain from any further nuclear or missile tests. He understands that the routine joint military exercises between the Republic of Korea and the United States must continue."
Kim also expressed his eagerness to meet President Trump "as soon as possible." The President said he would meet Kim Jong-un by May to achieve permanent denuclearization.
"Great progress being made but sanctions will remain until an agreement is reached. Meeting being planned!," President Trump tweeted last night. (Read more)
- Father God, we thank You for this amazing breakthrough in the delicate negotiations with North Korea President Kim Jong-un! This report comes after many years of passionate prayer have been offered before Your Throne of Grace, leading to this moment. We ask continued wisdom for President Trump and his advisors as they plan for this meeting, in Your Name, amen.
- "Praise the LORD, all you nations; extol him, all you peoples. For great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD."

Letters Came in the 'Hundreds':
The Prayer Notes the President Reads 'Every Day'
The Bible calls for people to pray for our leaders, so one congressman went to the people of his district to make that happen. It was meant to be a positive gesture, but not everyone on the internet saw it that way.
Congressman Mike Bost, R-IL, didn't like what he was seeing in our country at the beginning of 2017. Protests were happening everywhere and many well-known people made it clear they did not support the new administration. So his wife had an idea: They should collect thoughts and prayers to encourage President Donald Trump.
"We thought maybe we'd get 30, whatever," Rep. Bost told CBN News. "It came back - there were hundreds."
People from age five to almost 100 wrote the president encouraging messages. Before sending them off to the White House, the Bosts read through all of them to make sure only uplifting messages made it through.
"There was a 90-year-old woman that on it said, 'I have never written to a president, but I'm depending on you, and I pray into you every day that you'll straighten this country out - it needs it so bad,' " recalled Bost.
Bost had the letters delivered to the White House and had no idea if they'd be read or not. Then, a few months later, he was invited to the White House with about 20 other congressmen to see the president sign a bill into a law. While they were in the Oval Office, Trump wondered aloud why Rep. Bost's name sounded so familiar.
"He all of the sudden turns at me and goes, 'Bost, Bost, prayer cards!' " recounted Bost. "And I said, 'Wow, yeah we sent you some prayer cards over.' "
A White House aide then pulled the bag of prayer cards off a shelf in the Oval Office and brought them over.
"He said, 'You know we use these every day.' And I said, 'What?' And he said, 'Yeah, that's why they're here. We use them every day,' " continued Bost.
And it wasn't just the president reading them.
"I turned, and honest to goodness, I turned and hit chest to chest with the vice president, and he goes, 'Mike, he's not joking. We read these every day and they're so wonderful,' " said Bost.
. . . Bost says he knows firsthand the impact thoughts and prayers can have on lawmakers.
"Scripture is pretty clear that we need to pray for our leaders," says Bost. "You know what? You never go wrong when you pray for somebody." (CBN) Read more
Supreme Court ALERT

CRITICAL SUPREME COURT CASE COMING SOON!
NIFLA v. Beccara: Challenging our Right to Freedom of Speech
Endangering Pro-Life Activities at Crisis Pregnancy Centers in the State of California!
[Note: NIFLA stands for National Institute of Family and Life Advocates]
THREE DAYS OF TACTICAL AND STRATEGIC PRAYER
March 19, 20, 21
AT, IN, AND FOR THE U.S. SUPREME COURT
March 19, 20, 21
AT, IN, AND FOR THE U.S. SUPREME COURT
1. On Tuesday, March 20, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear Oral Argument in the case of NIFLA v. Becerra .
The issue is whether the State of California can force Christian pregnancy resource centers to advertise for and be compelled to pr ovide information to women where they can obtain free abortions from the State of California, (and similar issues). This form of compelled speech violates the Free Speech Clause of the Constitution which not only protects your right to say what you want to say, but prevents the government from telling you to say things which are contrary to your conscience or your religious beliefs.
2. We are calling for three days of concentrated prayer for the Supreme Court on March 19, 20, and 21.
If you can be in DC during this time period and you are an experienced intercessor, we are urging you to pray respectfully in accordance with Supreme Court conduct and decorum rules inside the Supreme Court on those days. If you are interested in participating in that team, our staging area will be the American Center for Prayer and Revival at 117 Second Street, NE, in the basement. You can gather there first for communion, prayer and instructions on how to behave properly in the U.S. Supreme Court and then be sent into the C ourt. If you are interested in this, contact Allan Parker at info@txjf.org
3. If you can only come for one day , we urge you to pray outside the Supreme Court with the large Christian rally that is being organized on the day of the Oral Argument, March 20, beginning at 9:00 am and continuing until noon. We need people there in large numbers.
4. We are also urging continuous prayer on March 21, the day after the Oral Argument to seal the victory and to pray against counter attacks by the enemy.
5. Even if you cannot attend in person , please make a special effort to pray for the Supreme Court during this March 19, 20, 21 time period and beyond until June 30.
> > > To learn more about this event and how you can register to participate in on-site prayer, please go here. Prayer points are included in this document.
