Sorry for the delay in getting this survey out to everyone. It has been a busy and exciting week. Look for more updates soon on Obamacare and spending cuts.

Nationwide Leadership Council Weekly Webinar

We have our weekly Nationwide Leadership Council Call Mondays at 9:00 pm eastern. Use the following link to participate:
https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/271141385

The password to get into the webinar is hardwork.

Not sure if you are a member of the Nationwide Leadership Council? 
Are you a local coordinator of a local tea party or 912 groups?  Then you are a member of the Nationwide Leadership Council.


Why do we have these calls each week?
Tea Party Patriots is a grassroots, bottom-up organization. Our best ideas come from the local coordinators and grassroots supporters.  Before deciding on a national course of action unless it is extremely time sensitive information, Tea Party Patriots National Coordinators run ideas by the Local Coordinators and Nationwide Leadership Council for refinement and approval.


What happens on the call?  
Generally, in the first 30 minutes the National Coordinators give an update from the national scene, announcements are made, proposed projects are thrown out, and legislative updates are given.  We do our very best to get the announcements out of the way in the very beginning.  Next, we discuss any upcoming projects or ideas.  This is an open discussion and anyone can participate in it and all are encouraged to do so.  Then we open the call for general questions.  You can ask any question here that you need answered.  We also do polls to get your feedback during the call and so you can see what others are thinking as well.


How do I participate?  We use gotowebinar for these calls.  You can listen from your phone or from the speakers on your computer.  For Go to Webinar:  (If these instructions do not make sense to you, please call Lee Martin who will help you get logged in. 404-326-0936.)

School Choice Week

http://schoolchoiceweek.com/


 

School Choice advocates and organizations, grassroots networks, parents and students are preparing to handle this week of focused attention in their own regions in their own way.  Some may hold a rally, some may screen a school choice documentary, some may write a "Letter to the Editor" and some may face the media spotlight.

The point of National School Choice Week is to provide a concentrated focus for our mission - effective education options for every child - a time for the media and the public to hear our resounding message and a time to bring new voices to the chorus.

National School Choice Week needs your PARTICIPATION to succeed as a bullhorn for school choice.  Individuals, to sign up and be "In" for National School Choice Week.
