Welcome to the Tea Party Patriots.

We invite you to go to TEAPARTYPATRIOTS.ORG to see just what we have to offer.

We are a group of people from all walks of life and of every political affiliation that are just tired of our elected representatives ignoring the constitution, ignoring our wishes and taxing us without representation. We have ideas, goals and action plans that are beginning to change the political landscape right this very minute. We are looking for people just like your self to help us get there. And all it takes is your willingness to make your feelings known, a desire to change the direction the current administration is taking this country and to stand up and be counted.

There is no cost. All you have to do is register at the website and you have taken your first step toward returning this country to the way our founding fathers intended it to be. We look for your ideas, talents and desire to express them. At the website you can use the zipcode finder to locate a chapter near you or contact me, Gordon Rupp at stocktonteapartypatriots@gmail.com

Last Tax Day over 10,000 Californians came to the steps of the State Capitol to protest the fiscal irresponsibility of the State and Federal Governments of the United States.

At that time, California politicians were proposing a massive $16 billion tax increase disguised as "budget reform."  The Proposition 1A tax hike was defeated following massive opposition from Tea Partiers and others demanding that our government live within its means.

Despite being outspent by the forces of confiscatory taxation by over 20 to 1, the grassroots defeated Prop. 1A with nearly 2/3 of the vote.

The California Tea Party Patriots again rallied at the Capitol on August 28th to stand against another form of taxation by misrepresentation.  Draconian environmental regulations have devastated the economy of agricultural regions where water pumps have been shut off by a government which values a three inch long fish more than California farmers.

That day, we also demanded an end to California's version of cap and trade, AB 32:  A law so far reaching that it will tell us what to eat, what to drive and where to live.  This law, an ineffective and counterproductive attempt to stop "global warming" will both cost us our freedoms and devastate our economy with crippling new taxes and regulations.

California's Tea Party Patriots, like Tea Partiers across America continue to forcefully demand the defeat of President Obama's cap and trade proposal and his socialized health care scheme that will raise health care costs while lowering its quality.

Our politicians are NOT our rulers.  They are our REPRESENTATIVES.  On Tax Day, we will demand either they start representing us or be voted out of office!
