TEA PARTY PATRIOTS 08/07/2015

Dear Conservatives,
Senate Report Finds IRS Prone to Abuse:
This week, our co-founder Jenny Beth Martin responded to a bipartisan Senate report that concludes senior leaders at the IRS are "prone to abuse." Martin responded by saying: "The Senate Finance Committee Report confirms what Tea Party Patriots already knew: The targeting did indeed happen, IRS employees obstructed justice, and the White House and Justice Department refuse to cooperate with this investigation or hold anyone accountable." To read Jenny Beth's full statement on the bipartisan Senate report on the IRS, click here.
Jenny Beth Martin Responds to Senator McConnell's Refusal to Use Congress's Power of the Purse:
Senate Majority Mitch McConnell made it clear this week that he has no intention of using Congress's "power of the purse" to stop President Obama's liberal agenda. TPP co-founder Jenny Beth Martin reminded Sen. McConnell about his campaign promises and made it clear he is not living up to them, "Republicans were elected to the majority in the Senate to be a roadblock to the Obama agenda. Everyday Americans across this country increasingly wonder what the difference is between Mitch McConnell controlling the Senate and Harry Reid controlling the Senate. That’s a problem."

Fire The Speaker:
Congressman Mark Meadows of North Carolina has filed a resolution to declare that the Office of the Speaker is vacant. His resolution charges that Speaker John Boehner has: 1) Consolidated power and decision-making, bypassing the 435 Members of Congress and the people they represent. 2) Rendered Congress subservient to the Executive and Judicial Branches, diminishing the voice of the American people. 3) Used the power of his office to punish Members of Congress who vote according to their conscience. And 4) Consistently provided voice votes on controversial legislation without notice in order to pass it without resistance. Sign our petition if you think it is time for Speaker John Boehner to be replaced as Speaker of the House!
