Tea Party rally update
Press release from the Cincinnati Tea Party:
The Cincinnati Tea Party is proud to partner with regional groups to present the Voice of America Freedom Rally, September 5 from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Voice of America Park Museum in West Chester. The rally will feature America’s voice, along with the voices of average citizens who are becoming engaged in the political process and holding their representatives accountable. Music, entertainment, and booths begin at 1:00 p.m.; the speakers and town hall program begin at 2:30 p.m.
Our regional partners include the Cincinnati 9/12 Project, the Dayton Tea Party, the Indiana Tea Party, and the Ohio Liberty Council. All partners share in our vision of fiscal responsibility, limited government, and free markets.
Cincinnati 9/12 Project - The Cincinnati 9/12 Project’s mission is to take back our country by shifting power from Washington politicians to the people whom they represent. The intent is to regain the balance of power among municipalities, states, and the federal government as originally envisioned by our Founding Fathers and as originally captured in the Constitution. The organization was founded in February 2009 as part of a national initiative to unite all Americans─regardless of political orientation─in pursuing events and actions that drive our politicians to follow Constitutional principles and values. They will be rallying at the 9/12 event in Washington, DC, on September 12.
Dayton Tea Party - The Dayton Tea Party is a grassroots, nonpartisan group opposed to wasteful government spending. It is made up of students, homemakers, working people, and professionals from all political persuasions.
Indiana Tea Party - The Indiana Tea Party’s mission is to restore limited government, fiscal responsibility, and accountable representation through citizen activism and education, in order to preserve the Constitution for the United States of America. This group has been an active voice in events such as the Patients First “Hands Off My Health Care†bus tour, the Lafayette Tea Party at the offices of Senators Lugar and Bayh, the ACORN counterprotest in Fort Wayne, the Tax Day Tea Party, and the Independence Day Tea Party. They, too, will be rallying at the 9/12 event in Washington, DC, on September 12.
Ohio Liberty Council - The Ohio Liberty Council is a coalition of nonpartisan groups in Ohio, including the Americans for Prosperity, Buckeye Firearms Association, Central Ohio 9/12 Project, Cincinnati 9/12 Project, Cincinnati Tea Party, Columbus Tea Party, Dayton Tea Party, Ohio Free State Organizations, Ohio Freedom Alliance. The council began in June 2009 as a way to connect liberty-minded Ohioans. The group communicates on issues, but more importantly, seeks to create concerted action among the groups. By working together, the council intends to achieve real results to protect and promote liberty in Ohio. The most important issue facing Ohio is state sovereignty, which will be the initial focus of the group.
America’s voice will be heard on September 5, as it was during World War II, from the historical site of wartime broadcasts that were heard around the world. The very first VOA program in 1944 began, “We shall speak to you about America and the war. The news may be good or it may be bad, but we will tell you the truth. (Source: Ohio History Central, An Online Encyclopedia of Ohio History)
