TITLE: LETTER TO THE EDITOR - ITS TIME FOR A TEA PARTY
 

Tea Anyone ?

 
April 15th is Tax Day; ideal for a march on Washington. Given that Hunterdon County is the third most heavily taxed county in the United States; it seems only fitting and proper that the citizens voice their opinions of the current dismal state of national affairs. This is a call to county residents to rouse themselves on that day and make their feelings known directly to our representatives in Washington, D.C. We would saddle up about 8 AM so as to get to D.C. around noon; have lunch in one of the Congressional office buildings, present personal letters to our representatives; take a class picture on the Capitol steps and then involve ourselves in the rally on the mall, returning early that evening.

 
As each personal letter and hand delivery is representative of 1000 citizens, your efforts will most certainly be recognized. This will demonstrate that the voters are watching and keeping score. We would all share in the cost of a bus. Those interested in participating are encouraged to contact me to work out details. Time is short, so act now. Being a citizen in a Republic has responsibilities. If you are upset at what is going on, make your feelings known and reserve April 15th for what could very well become a historic day. Silence is consent. If you do not consent, now is the time to be heard. Pass the word and invite your friends.
