URGENT ACTION ITEM
Message and warning from Representative Warren Peterson--LAST CHANCE to Stop O'Brewercaide:
PS...don't Just email...go to AZ Leg.gov and CALL!!!
Arizona is about to decide whether to expand Obamacare in Arizona. This should not happen in Arizona. We have a Republican controlled House, Senate and Executive branch. Unfortunately today five republican senators locked hands with liberals and passed the expansion out of the Senate. It will now come to the House where we have our last chance to kill it. We have some Republicans that are willing to take the bribe from the Federal government that will forever commit and addict this State to an unsustainable program. If it was sustainable then why would they offer us a 10 to 1 match to join? Because a massive bribe is all that will work when you have a program that even your own party describes as a "train wreck".
I don't send a lot of emails because I understand that all of you have very busy lives. But please for the future of this state go to lifelibertyfreedom.com and email every republican legislator and tell them that if they vote for the expansion of Obamacare in Arizona you will vote them out of office next year. Short emails are the best that have the topic in the subject line. We have to get in front of this. I am constantly contacted about things that were passed two to three years ago. If people would have started the uproar before the vote rather than after the vote then it may have made the difference.
The vote is near. The last time we made a bunch of poor decisions the Capitol was sold to pay the bills. That's right, we don't even own the Capitol and we don't know who owns it. I have tried to find out and I am told that is confidential. Really?
We don't have another Capitol to sell. Please take action and stop Arizona from making its biggest blunder of all time.
Education Piece--The Ideological Operations Project
In late 1961, JFK gave a series of speeches on the “discordant voices of extremism.” When asked at a press conference about contributions to “right-wing extremist” groups, he said that while he thought the federal government shouldn’t interfere with free speech, it should be concerned about “a diversion of funds which might be taxable to – for nontaxable purposes.” He then added in what appeared to be taken as a directive from the president, “I am sure the Internal Revenue System examines that.”
In his 1989 IRS history, A Law Unto Itself, journalist David Burnham reports that “within a day or two” of that press conference, “the agency launched a test audit of 22 ‘extremist organizations.’” Before this, Burnham and Andrew report, the IRS rarely had audited ideological groups because it was time-consuming and didn’t produce much revenue.
The groups the IRS audited ranged from strongly anti-communist organizations such as the John Birch Society to traditional conservative organizations such as the National Education Program of Harding College. Coincidentally or not, the Reuther memorandum had singled out many of these groups.
Bits and pieces of this targeting of conservatives have surfaced over the years, but Andrew shows it was an operation similar in scale to Nixon’s infamous Special Services Staff. Called the “Ideological Organizations Project,” the covert Kennedy scheme lasted through the Johnson years into the mid-1960s. In late 1963, just before Kennedy was assassinated, the IRS was prepared to audit 10,000 organizations.

Hey gang,
We have a space that we can share in West Mesa off the 60 & Dobson, and we would like to accumulate about 50 folding chairs for events that we will have there. If you know of any standard folding chairs that can be "donated" to our group, please let us know by sending us an email.
THANK YOU!!

The Greater Phoenix Tea Party is a non-partisan group of Americans dedicated to embracing their civic duty and becoming more active in the political process. Consisting of local groups around the area, we accomplish great things that could not otherwise be accomplished by one person. We seek to increase our historical and civic knowledge, keep up to date on current issues, advocate adherence to the U.S. Constitution, demand recognition of state sovereignty, support free market principles, and vett/support principled candidates/representatives who will adhere to these ideals regardless of their party affiliation.
