Tea Party speakers will talk about the fiscal irresponsibility of our elected officials and advocate:
Repeal of the federal Stimulus Bill that was passed in February.
Repeal of all “pork” spending that has not been funded already.
Defeat of the proposed health care reform bill.
Defeat of the anti-energy “cap and trade” bill that will cripple our economy.
The organizers ask attendees to bring American flags to celebrate Independence Day and to rally to preserve the individual freedoms that the Founders won with their blood, sweat and tears. All are invited to attend.
The Independence Day Tea Party will feature an “open mic” along with scheduled speakers. Attendees will be able to sign up for email updates, make rally signs on the spot, and sign petitions related to Connecticut lawmakers such as U.S. Sens. Chris Dodd and Joe Lieberman.
The Connecticut Tea Party Patriots is part of the National Tea Party Patriots, a grassroots organization that supports entrepreneurship, promotes individual responsibility, respects Constitutional integrity, and favors American ingenuity over expansive governmental growth and spending. The National Tea Party Patriots is not affiliated with any political party.
July 4 Tea Parties will take place all over the United States, each independently organized and operated. Connecticut Tea Party Patriots also plans to participate in a National Day of Tea Parties scheduled for July 17, during which Tea Parties will be held at noon EST in every congressional district office in the country, to protest government-run health care.

Thousands Attend Tea Parties Around Connecticut and the Nation
Unfortunately work and family commitments kept from attending one of the Connecticut Tax Day Tea Parties yesterday… From what I’ve read they were hugely successful not just in Connecticut but nation wide.
A couple things… First this video or one like it has been making the rounds on blogs, I’m not going to comment on the conduct of CNN’s Susan Roesgen it speaks for itself:
I do however have something to say to the guy calling Barack Obama a fascist…. With all do respect sir leave the fascist rhetoric at home. That type of rhetoric is as misplaced now as it was when liberal activists used it against George W. Bush, it has no place in legitimate political discourse.
Second with that out of the way lets keep the momentum going, first take a moment to write a short note to your state and federal legislators to let them know you attended or are part of the Tea Party movement, second let House Speaker Nancy Pelosi know what you think about her idiotic remarks about the Tea Party Movement. I know this goes without saying but be polite. Finally join us on Saturday, April 25, 2009 for the Woodbury Tea Party. The rally starts at 11:00 a.m. and runs through 1:00 p.m. in Kennedy Park (Corner of RT 6 and Rt. 64) in Woodbury, CT
You can send your comments to Speaker Pelosi at:
Office of the Speaker

Washington, DC 20515
Phone: (202) 225-0100
