Audit the Fed Petitioning: 44th Ward

Saturday, June 18th, 2011
11:00am - 2:00pm
Einstein Bros Bagles on Southport
3420 N. Southport
Chicago, Illinois

Come gather petition signatures to urge Senator Mark Kirk to co-sponsor Senate 202, Rand Paul's bill to Audit the Fed.

We will be petitioning voters in the 44th Ward West Lakeview neighborhood. Clipboards, Petition materials and walk lists will be provided. We will walk specific precincts within the ward to identify potential Audit the Fed supporters. Einstein Bros is just off the Chicago Brown Line at Southport.

Whereas: Congress, the Federal Reserve, and the U.S. Treasury have put the American taxpayer on the hook for over $14 trillion in bailouts and loans; and

Whereas: The Federal Reserve continues to refuse to fully disclose the details of its emergency lending; and

Whereas: Allowing the Fed to operate our nation's monetary system in almost complete secrecy leads to abuse, inflation, and a lower quality of life for every American; and

Whereas: HR 459 and S 202, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act, would require a complete audit of the Fed for the first time in its history and would provide answers to the American people about how our money is being spent;

Therefore: It's time to hold the Federal Reserve accountable to Congress and the American People. I urge you to do everything in your power to pass the Audit the Fed bill!

However, the real stars of the tea party will be you - the thousands of concerned citizens joining together in Daley Plaza. Bring your family, invite your friends and don't forget your signs.

The theme for this year's event is "Reform Government. Restore Liberty." We'll come together once again to make government more accountable, stop out of control spending and stand up for freedom and individual liberty. We are now at a turning point in the battle against big government. Increasingly all over the country, public sector unions and their supporters are pushing for higher taxes, more spending and even greater debt. We'll continue our fight for less government, more freedom, fiscal responsibility and a brighter future for our children. We can achieve that future together.

For more information, call us at 773-599-0105 or visit us at http://www.teapartychicago.org/ .

For those of you wondering why tax day falls on April 18 this year: Friday, April 15 is a holiday in Washington, DC and government workers have the day off. We wish that was a joke, but it's true.

Who could possibly view hyperinflation as a real threat ? Anyone who has had at least one eye open this past year. I am beginning to face the fact that the liberal mind is a nut that I personally have had very little luck in cracking. Plan B calls for me to hunker down and prepare for the hard rain that's most likely about to fall.

* David Hale, Rockford Tea Party Organizer. David has successfully confronted the runaway Wisconsin State Senators on multiple occasions. Videos of the confrontations have gone viral and received national attention because David asked them questions the media is not asking.

* Brian Costin, Director of Outreach at the Illinois Policy Institute. Brian heads up IPI's Liberty Leaders program. Brian helped organize the first Chicago Tax Day Tea Party and is now running for Mayor of Schaumburg in the April 5 election.

We will be joined by the Cook County Campaign for Liberty at our meeting. The Cook County C4L shares many of our same goals, including promoting ethical leadership and advocating the great American principles of liberty, fiscal responsibility, transparency and limited government.
