With all the Tea Parties being set up, many patriots have asked how they can begin organizing their own Tea Party.  There are several independent Tea Parties, including a mass nationwide Tea Party on April 15th.  Although this website is for the purpose of organizing well coordinated, but decentralized Tea Parties from sea to shining sea, on July 4th, 2009, here are some pointers to help you all organize and plan Tea Parties for any event.

If you are a Tea Party coordinator from any location or date, you can contact our event planner at aaron@peacpac.com to discuss details and to promote our common cause.

1. Check to see about existing protests

Use Google, Meetup, and Facebook to see if there are already protests being planned in your area. Also be sure to check the lists of registered Tea Party protests at ReTeaParty forums. If there’s already a protest being planned in your area, help out with the remaining steps in this list by contacting the protest planners and offering whatever help you can as well as by taking the initiative on your own to turn out as many people as possible. If there is no protest in your area, proceed to:

2. Pick a Location

On July 4^th, you’ll be joined by protesters all over America.  Choose a time that will be suitable for the most people. For us, July 4^th is time to Tea Party all day.

Choose a location that is publically visible. Check your local statutes for rules about large public gatherings and see to it that you don’t rub shoulders with local law enforcement by breaking any laws (use the Internet or phonebook to get the contact information of a pertinent office in your local government that you can check in with about your event).

With deficits skyrocketing, government ballooning, and the responsible fuming, our elected leaders are checking the laundry for any change they can shake out or our pockets. From, The Hill:

House Democrats are looking at yet another economic stimulus bill beyond the $787 billion one just enacted as investors and consumers continue to show little faith in the economy.

At a special meeting of the Democratic Steering and Policy Committee on Tuesday morning, Democrats heard again from their trusted band of economists and came away reinforced that Congress would need to spend billions of additional taxpayer dollars in the coming months to help pull the economy out its severe recession…

“We are going to need more taxpayer money,” Mark Zandi, the chief economist at Moody’s Economy.com and a key economic adviser to congressional Democrats, said after the meeting. “I think another stimulus package is a reasonable assumption because of the way things are going.”…

“We have to keep the door open,” Pelosi said. “The word of the day is confidence. Confidence in our markets, confidence in lending, confidence in our financial institutions.”
