Freedom

The recent Washington bailouts, handouts, and ever expanding government is placing an enormous debt on every American and on our future generations. Numerous, radical changes in our political foundation since inauguration day is stirring the emotions of many Americans, awakening us from our slumber, and causing us to act.

First Coast residents formed The First Coast Tea Party (FCTP) to remind Washington politicians of their responsibility to uphold the foundation of our Constitution, Bill of Rights, and Declaration of Independence. Those in Washington seem to have forgotten that this country was founded upon “We the People”.
The FCTP is similar to more than a thousand groups like us across the country. We were formed by individuals who usually are not involved in politics at this level and certainly have never before protested. We are professionals, stay at home moms, hard working dads, your next door neighbor, friends, relatives…Americans. We are everyday people who love our country, our God and the truths set forth by our founding fathers. We will stand up, protest, write letters, send emails, call our servants in Washington and fight for the cause of democracy. It is our duty and our right.
