FOND DU LAC TO HOLD TEA PARTY

Fond du Lac TEA Party Preparations in Final Stages

The Fond du Lac TEA Party Rally being planned for 5:30pm on Wednesday, April 15 at Veterans Park, downtown Fond du Lac, is now in the final planning stages. TEA stands for Taxed Enough Already. Being held in honor of the Boston Tea Party, the rally is intended to give concerned citizens a chance to voice their frustration with the high taxes that are being imposed by government officials and the loss of everyday freedoms that accompany intrusive government actions. The rally will include appearances by Benjamin Franklin and Betsy Ross, patriotic sing-alongs, brief inspirational speeches by freedom-loving citizens, and opportunities to contact government officials with personalized messages. Momentum is building for the TEA Party and citizens from surrounding counties are inquiring and making plans to attend.

All citizens who truly believe that the path of endless spending and debt are not the path we desire as Americans are invited to attend, regardless of political affiliation. Rally attendees are encouraged to bring signs bearing their personal messages and even dress up in Revolutionary costume, if so desired, to enhance the theme of the rally.

Over 1800 TEA Party rallies are being held across the nation on April 15, including a state-wide rally earlier in the day on the steps of the state capitol in Madison. For further information on the Fond du Lac TEA Party, email fdlteaparty@att.net.
