The policy of the Lapeer County Tea Party Patriots is to allow only candidates, not representatives of candidates, to speak at our meetings. Candidates will be requested to speak by agreement of the Directors in support on their stated goal of membership education. Those races and issues that are requested remain the prerogative of the Directors concerning topical subjects or candidacy. It is not felt that a representative of a candidate can relate the direct position of the person they represent and that the candidate be held directly responsible for their stated position.
The leadership of the Lapeer County Tea Party Patriots wishes to issue the following statement:
The Leadership of the Lapeer County Tea Party Patriots fully support the efforts of the Michigan Freedom To Work Organization to make Michigan a "right to work" state.
We believe this would considerably improve Michigan's future economic prosperity.
Please note that this does not constitute a formal endorsement of the Michigan Freedom To Work Organization nor does this represent support and/or endorsement by the membership of the Lapeer County Tea Party Patriots. This statement of support is from the Directors of the Lapeer County Tea Party Patriots, not the general membership.
Also, please see the attached revised press release.
We want to thank all those who helped out on our float. We won first prize for a service organization! Much more importantly, you did a great job representing us to the community at large showing them that the Tea Party is truly just average Americans trying to make a difference. It was a truly wonderful day. See the pictures below.
