If you would like more information about the Tax Day Tea Party and whether there is an event in your area, please visit the site below and click on your state for information.
The 4th is almost here! Are you ready to join your neighbors, friends and other like-minded Americans looking for direction in taking back our country? We can unite as Americans, standing together to protect our country.
Many people have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to have to our collective voices heard by our representatives, our government. The Tea Parties of April 15, 2009 were a start. Over one million strong, across our nation, we stepped out from behind the vail of complacency to be heard. We were heard.
Those same tireless workers are at it again. The Tea Parties are planning rallies across our nation on July 4th. A rally has been planned, permits in hand for DC. The organizer of this event is Patrick Beck, no relation to Glenn though! I have been in contact with Patrick and his organization, March for Liberty (http://marchforliberty.org/) regarding details of the event. When I questioned the preparation in advance of the event his reply was
"You better believe it's happening. We're up to about 25,000 people with more coming everyday. I appeared on the Glenn Beck Show on Fox the other day promoting the event. There are buses of people coming in from Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, Texas, Louisiana, and Florida. I heard yesterday of a family flying in from Hawaii. This is going to be incredible.
As far as details are concerned, it will start at McPherson Square (about 2 blocks north of the White House) at 9:30 AM. From there we will "march" to the Upper Senate Park adjacent to the U.S. Capitol Building. Starting at 10:00 AM we will have speakers and a rally. You can find more info such as maps, a speaker list, and other details at our website - marchforliberty.org. Let me know what else I can help you with and I look forward to meeting you in D.C. "

Hi Mickey. Hope the get 2gether went well. I was volunteering at the Gala initially and was planning on stopping by but had to leave without getting to. Was wondering about the turnout out of curiosity. If there is another group mtg planned for anything I would like to try and make it. I live in Middlesex and work in Henrico. Alice Luck
HI Thanks for the welcome...will be going to WDC in the morning...Falls Church, VA afternoon and Reston, VA in the early evening...I'm a bit nervous about DC since there is a lot of talk about ACORN and MoveOn trying to instigate trouble.
Will try to stay in with groups.
Mickey,
I am not the organizer but have heard, had mention of it at a GOP dinner and read about it on line in our local network. I could not find a posting for the event on the Tea Party site and figured the more advertisement the better.
