The Green Bay (Wisconsin) Tea Party ~ Mission Statement

We strongly believe that these United States are suffering from excessive, overbearing, out-of-control government at all levels, intolerable taxation (without real representation), asinine political correctness that stifles the public discourse and crushes personal excellence, and a disastrous decline into the nightmare of socialism that would physically sicken our founding forefathers. We aggressively work to create awareness and promote discussion of the causes of our nation’s problems and the potential solutions. We engage politically to effect the changes that concur with our extraordinary Constitution.

 The Goals of the Green Bay Wisconsin Tea Party are the promotion of:

 1)     Restoration of the republic to the form defined in the Articles of the Constitution. Repeal of any and all laws, regulations, executive orders, resolutions, and ordinances that conflict with the Constitution or are based on powers not enumerated in the Constitution. Removal and elimination of any and all programs, departments, bureaus, and agencies for which there is no constitutional allowance. Barring passage of any legislation that is “repugnant to the Constitution.”

2)     Reassertion of the preeminence of the sovereignty of the States over the federal government as stipulated by the 10^th Amendment in the Bill of Rights. Devolving decision making to the lowest possible level of government to accurately reflect the will of “We the People”.

3)     Achieving total transparency and accountability in all levels of government – the people should have the ability to read and comment on all bills before a legislative body votes on the bill. Elimination of all earmarks and bill amendments – if the idea is worthwhile, it should be worthy of its own bill. Requirement by law that all government officials at all levels are to be subject to the same laws that are passed by those legislative bodies.

4)     Demolishing the growing, socialist “nanny state” and its programs and legislation, reinstituting personal responsibility and the traditional values of work, merit, integrity, honesty, innovation, accountability, civic participation and civility.

5)      Correcting the perspective of the Supreme Court to a centrist, originalist interpretation of the Constitution that terminates the power expanding, flip-flopping, judicial activism associated with the view of the Constitution as a “living document” which complies with international and foreign law. Reaffirmation that the first and foremost obligation of the Supreme Court is to protect the people’s and the states’ constitutional rights by restricting the scope and power of the federal government, thus protecting the lives, liberty and property of the American people.

The Green Bay Wisconsin Tea Party members  are answering the call of History that, in the prophetic words of Thomas Paine, “it is the duty of every Patriot to protect his country from its government”……if these goals strike a chord with you, we invite you to join or work with us.

Thank you for helping our non-profit group! 
All proceeds go to events, education, seminars, etc.

The Mission Statement for the Organizational Site:

^1.“In order to re-establish the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity, we commit ourselves to promote the conservative values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We shall do this by educating the public, promoting and supporting quality candidates, and communicating with our elected officials, while remaining politically independent.

^2.We shall work together to:  present guest speakers; present current issues and recommend a simple call to action; provide an open forum; provide education on government, the Constitution, and political issues of interest; affiliate with a limited number of regional and national organizations with similar interests; identify and support candidates who share our mission (statement); and make our meetings both compelling and enjoyable.”

The Purpose of the Green Bay Wisconsin Tea Party Organizational Site

 We will work with any established Tea Party Group, please see the ^2.second paragraph of the mission statement posted above.

Regarding political candidates:

If a Tea Party Group emails us information regarding an event that involves a candidate it always goes up on the site.  That's how it gets there, only through a particular groups sponsored event.  After the event is over, the information is taken down. 
Leaving this up on a permanent basis would falsely imply endorsement!

 In Short:

The Tea Party Groups provide the forum. 
They contact www.greenbayteaparty.org with regard to their involvement. 
It then gets posted.

If anyone needs any of the contact information regarding any of the Tea Party Groups Please let us know and we would be happy to provide you with that information.
If You would like your Tea Party Group to be listed on this site please don't hesitate to contact us at info@greenbayteaparty.org

 

 

We Support the Troops!
