If you don't want MORE of the SAME-DO SOMETHING diFfeREnT

CHANGE VENUE to

EL CHICO- GO TO WEBPAGE FOR ADDRESS AND MAP

I for one am tired of the StATuS QUo...Remember that old saying-

"InsaNity is doing the S A M E thing over and OVER, and Expecting a DifFerENt ReSuLt"

Here's another one for you -

"If it is going to be, it is up to ME".

YOU can MAKE a DIFFERENCE in YOUR City Elections & the Texas 83rd Legislature...We will talk about HOW! I will bring HANDOUTS that you can take home with you that will give you some basic "HOW TO" Instructions.

We will also:

Take a peek into what Bills are being proposed - How to Find and Follow Legislation that you care about How to influence and communicate with your State Rep and Senator to let them know HOW YOU WANT THEM TO VOTE when it comes time! (Don't Forget your Local City!) How to learn about your local City Candidates - It is time to elect new City Council Members! (Hey, if they are "Tea Party" you can help promote them! We will have some in NRH-more info soon!) Let's make this our biggest turn-out ever...So, come, and bring along a friend...Tell them you want to invite them for dinner...don't give 'em a chance to turn you down! http://img1.meetupstatic.com/614102232183174521616/img/smileys/wink.gifLOL!

BONUS!

Smart Meter Update - There is OPT-OUT Legislation proposed. Sadly, it's not a BAN - but for now, we can take a partial victory. However, there are some issues that we need to address with the proposed legislation - possibly some "Unintended Consequences". If you want to read it, it is HB 1171 (http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/Search/DocViewer.aspx?K2DocKey=odbc%3a%2f%2fTLO%2fTLO.dbo.vwCurrBillDocs%2f83%2fR%2fH%2fB%2f01171%2f1%2fB%40TloCurrBillDocs&QueryText=hb+1171&HighlightType=1), by David Simpson. We will Discuss more at the meeting!

See you there!

We need members (why not you?), to assist in watching how our US Senators and Representatives are voting on key issues, and reporting this to the group, as well.

Please take time to join us if you can. If you cannot, I'd love to hear from you anyway, to let me know you are on board, and if there are things you are working on outside of our group. I myself attend several other 9-12 and Tea Party groups, and am learning lots, and having opportunities to get involved. I welcome everyone's comments - "pro or con".
