National Tax Day Tea Party. What if...?


According to nationwideteaparty.com, it is expected that over 300 cities will be participating in the Nationwide Tax Day Tea Party on April 15, 2009. It is also expected that at least 10+ of those cities will have upwards of 5,000 attendees. So, what if...?

What if each and every person attending each and everyone of these tea parties, were to call Congress at the same time, what would happen then? Would they get the message? Even better, what if...?

What if each and every person that is not able to attend their city's tea party due to other responsibilities, like work, were to call Congress at a predetermined time?

Because of time zones and local planning efforts, I am sure that these tea parties will be going on at different time. Much better, I say. Congress will be hearing from us throughout the day.

What if, everyone would call:

202-224-3121

Additionally, what if...?

What if each and every person attending each and every tea party were to mail a letter to their Representative and Senators so that they would receive it on April 15th (the letter would have to be mailed by April 1oth). Said letter would go something like this:



Dear Congressman/Senator (So and So):

I am writting this letter to let you know that I will be attending the Nationwide Tea Party to be held in (my city) on April 15th. I am doing this because I want to send you, my representative, a message that I am mad and I will not be silent any longer.

Please take this opportunity to review your current standing on issues that are driving this country to bankrupcy. Remember that you are elected to represent the will of your constituents and we expect you do just that.

Respectfully Submitted,

(Your Name)
(Your Address)

Obviously you can change the text to depict you personal message.

So, What if...?
