Join us for a “Stand Up For Texas” Tea Party
on the south steps of the Texas Capitol in Austin!
On September 5th, patriots and lovers of freedom will gather at the Capitol building in Austin to encourage our elected officials to Stand Up For Texas! We’ll address the federal government’s power grabs regarding Cap and Trade, Health Care, stimulus packages and bailouts, and ask our elected officials to sign a pledge to Stand Up for Texas with their votes, whether in the local councils, state legislatures or the US Congress.
All Texans who are concerned about runaway government spending and the trashing of our Constitution can join us to make a loud noise that will be heard in Washington! All elected officials at every level should be invited to hear our concerns and sign the pledge, so make sure to extend an invitation to YOUR elected officials!
Date: Saturday, September 5th, 2009 (Labor Day Weekend)
Time: 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Place: South steps of the Texas State Capitol
1100 Congress Avenue
Austin, TX 78701
If you are joining the March on Washington D.C. on September 12th,
be sure to join us in Austin to connect with others who will be going as well!
We’ll send you off in style!
Transportation – Groups are organizing charter buses from different areas of Houston (and, if demand exists, other parts of the state) to make the trip together. Jennifer Heiden (Katy Tea website www.katytea.com and email address tea.katy@yahoo.com) is offering to assist you in ordering and organizing charter buses for the Houston area (with other information to come if there is statewide demand), with the goal of synchronizing a caravan which will arrive at the Capitol at the same time. We are planning to have all buses meet at a central staging point and then travel together up Congress Avenue to the Capitol! There will be more details to come.
If instead you prefer to handle your own bus charters, here are a couple of links that might be helpful:
