Standing Strong

Dear DianeA,

A lot of folks are afraid of a Trump Presidency. As I've traveled across Virginia and the country thanking our supporters, I have heard it over and over: "You'll have our back, won't you Tim?"

This question reminds me of my days as a civil rights lawyer fighting long odds battles against housing discrimination. And that memory gives me extra energy every day.

I want to make progress, so of course I will always look for ways to move ahead with the new Trump administration on priorities that will help all Americans. But part of what we must do as Senate Democrats is stand strong for the values and people we care about.

So when they try to backtrack on equal rights, we'll be the firewall. When they try to take away people's healthcare, we'll be the firewall. When they try to weaken our efforts to slow climate change, we'll be the firewall. If they try to weaken public education or deport our neighbors, we'll be the firewall.

So I'm asking you DianeA, will you pledge to stand with Senate Democrats as we fight to protect and build on the progress we’ve made over the past eight years?

Thank you for fighting alongside us,

Tim Kaine

2016 Annual Report

alexandria tea party
Dear ATP Members,

The Tea Party movement won many victories this year. Here are the most recent:

  • November 2016 Elections
    • Three Tea Party issues were prominent in the 2016 election - Obamacare, immigration, and voter fraud.
    • Rep. Paul Gosar (AZ) won his primary, then re-election with Tea Party support
    • American hero Brian Mast was elected to Congress from Florida with Tea Party backing
    • Constitutional conservative Josh Hawley was elected Missouri Attorney General after a Tea Party education campaign exposing the liberal voting record of his opponent in the Republican primary
Alexandria Tea Party ended 2016 with 552 people on the mailing list, substantially unchanged from last year.

In line with the results of a previous member survey, ATP's leadership focused on activism instead of meetings again this year. ATP has two main focuses - the Constitution and anticommunism.

ATP presented on the Constitution at the Northern Virginia Tea Party Regional Conference in May. ATP's Constitution project was picked up in 2016 by Tea Party Patriots, the national group led by Jenny Beth Martin. An ATP executive committee member produces a 'Constitution Minute' most weeks, which he presents on TPP's Sunday national webinars. Substantial expansion of the project is planned for 2017.

An ATP spin-off - the Anticommunism Action Team [ACAT] - has 131 people on its mailing list. ACAT has three main projects - a speakers bureau, university course material, and pushback against China's forced organ harvesting. Keep up with ACAT's activities on its website and join its mailing list by sending your request to mail@spider-and-the-fly.com.

Although we no longer have regular meetings, we did provide 9 opportunities for you to rub shoulders with fellow tea partiers in 2016 - 1 conference call, 2 happy hours, 3 meetings, and 3 booths. One of the meetings was our annual 4th of July program which we have been doing since our inception. Two of the meetings were film screenings with the filmmaker available for Q&A.

We expect this pattern to continue in 2017 with happy hours combined with literature handouts (like we did at the King Street Metro for the election in October) and meetings confined to special presentations. Activism, once more, will take center stage.

Jane Hogan, long-time Virginia activist on Common Core and Constitutional problems with sharia, was our Volunteer of the Year. Other volunteers stepped up again this year, enabling ATP and allied initiatives (Obamacare Truth Squad, Anticommunism Action Team [ACAT], Tea Party Patriots Constitution Project, The Truth, The Discontenterati) to:
  • Send 226 letters to Pennsylvania voters which helped win that key state for Trump (Tea Partiers sent 100,000 letters in all)
  • Hand out 450 anti-Hillary flyers at the King Street Metro
  • Support the new ATP-led Constitution Project at Tea Party Patriots (monitoring news, finding writers, allies, etc.)
  • Continue pushing back against Obamacare (over 10,000 tweets and 600 posts, plus weekly presentations on the Tea Party Patriots national webinar)
  • Reach hundreds of people with the powerful message of what life is really like under communism
  • Push back against communist May Day celebrations through a major editorial in the Washington Times, an anti-Che Guevara video seen by 7,000 people, a Twitter rally, etc.)
  • Supply content for ACAT's 'Spider & the Fly' website
  • Take on the United Nations, the mainstream media, and the Left with original reporting and strategic news aggregation in The Truth
  • Exploit the news out of communist countries and the Left's other vulnerabilities at The Discontenterati Twitter feed
  • Engage with dozens of members of the public at our booths at three Alexandria festivals
  • Join in protests at the Supreme Court (Friedrichs and executive amnesty cases - in 30-degree weather!), FBI building, Vietnamese embassy, and open borders refugee rally
  • Present "Free Market Warrior" Loren Spivack to a sizeable group in December 2015
  • Supply photos for the ATP website and Fairfax Free Citizen
  • Pack the room at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, and
  • Alert ATP members to a scam affecting Tea Partiers
In 2016, we continued to inform our members of Action Alerts and outside events of interest by way of email newsletter. Action Alerts this year included two protests at the Supreme Court and various phone banking opportunities for candidates who aligned with our core values.   Notable events this year were Martha Boneta's Liberty Farm Festival and the Act for America annual conference. Our mailings are confined to noteworthy information. Our list is never sold or shared, and never will be.

ATP has continued to produce a stream of engaging content for its website, Twitter feed, and Facebook page. Recent posts include:
  • Why Do We Have the Electoral College? (video)
  • Liberal Bias in the Media ADMITTED. Case Closed
  • How Charleston Sent Al Sharpton, et al. Packing and Stayed Peaceful
  • Moving Tributes to Our Wounded Soldiers
  • How the Broken-Down Russian Jeep Carrying Castro is the Perfect Metaphor for Socialism
ATP has consistently been promoting our core values - limited government under the Constitution, free markets, and fiscal responsibility - as well as our implicit values (patriotism and civic engagement) since the beginning. We look forward to serving the cause of liberty again with your help in 2017.

Joys of the Season,
- ATP Executive Committee

Action Alert - Obamacare Petition

alexandria tea party
ATP has been working hard to repeal Obamacare since it became law in 2010.  Please take a moment to sign this petition.

From Tea Party Patriots - 

President-elect Donald Trump has sent us a clear sign that he wants to repeal and replace ObamaCare with the appointment of Congressman Tom Price to Health Secretary.
This is great news for patriotic Americans who have seen first-hand how this disastrous policy has ruined relationships between patients and doctors, driven up our out-of-pocket costs, and drastically increased our premiums.
As a former surgeon, Congressman Price has been one of the most vocal critic of ObamaCare.
But he is about to run up against historic opposition from liberals in Congress who will defend ObamaCare at all costs. Congressman Price needs to know right now that the American people support him and President-elect Trump, and he must not back away from this fight.
The time has come to tear ObamaCare limb-from-limb.
Tea Party Patriots has been alongside Congressman Price fighting this bill, which has wasted more than $55 billion taxpayer dollars since its implementation in 2010.
We did everything we could to stop its initial passage, but Democrats stooped to new lows when they pushed through ObamaCare and forced it on the American people.
Now, they're going to fight twice as hard to defend it. They're going to pull out every dirty trick in the book in an attempt to demonize, deceive, and intimidate Donald Trump and Tom Price.
We can't let them get away with it. ObamaCare MUST be repealed.
Mr. Trump's administration needs to know that as patriotic Americans, we are behind him and his team when they dismantle this legislation.
The liberal Left is already flooding Washington with petitions, phone drives, and campaigns aimed at keeping this horrendous law on the books.
And we need to be certain we are making even more noise than the liberal Left, because you know the media will only report on their activities.
Before ObamaCare wastes any more of our tax dollars, drives up costs further, and makes the relationships between you and your doctors even more strained... we need to get rid of it.
Tea Party Patriots has never backed down from our commitment to repealing ObamaCare.
And now we're leading the fight one last time to get rid of Barack Obama's signature legislation.
We need your support if we're going to finally get rid of ObamaCare altogether.
In liberty,
Jenny Beth Martin
Co-Founder
