CALL TO ACTION:
On April 9th Texas Gov. Rick Perry joined state Rep. Brandon Creighton and sponsors of House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 50 in support of states rights under the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
The Tenth Amendment states:
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
In his speech Gov. Perry states “I believe the federal government has become oppressive. I believe it has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion in the lives of its citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state.”
The Freedom Factory is launching a campaign to get every state government to adopt comparable legislation, reaffirming their legitimate rights within the context of a free American Republic.
We need to spread the word, to mobilize residents from every state in the Union to remind our public servants that we will not tolerate erosion of our rights and the Constitution that guarantees them.
Here’s a sample letter you are urged to send every public servant in your jurisdiction. Send this to your state’s governor and state legislatures, and leave a comment below to sign our petition:
The federal government has grown too big and too powerful, infringing upon the legal sovereign rights of our state affirmed by the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. There is a resurgent federalist movement best highlighted by the Texas Legislature that I want implemented in [list your state]. The Texas legislature will soon be voting on House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 50 that reaffirms state sovereignty. We need similar legislation in our state.
No one in Washington D.C. knows how to run our state better than our own residents. I am tired of our government bowing to federal authority. I demand that we reassert our right to self governance. I urge you to do all you can to support this movement and regain control of our state from Washington D.C.
The residents of this state need you to protect them from a growing central government. I hope that you have the courage to stand up for those to whom you are responsible.
Here’s a great resource for finding the names and contact information for your elected representatives. Take a few minutes to cut and paste the sample letter into an e-mail and let these lawmakers know we mean business. Enough is enough!
Please join our cause and subscribe via e-mail if you want to continue following these updates and fight to preserve our Constitutionally protected freedoms.

SPECIAL OFFERS
The Federal Reserve is creating tens of trillions of new dollars, debasing our currency, and silently taxing us all through inflation. With tens of trillions in federal budget deficits on the horizon there is nowhere for the US dollar to go, but down.

Refuse to be a victim of this flawed financial system, buy gold and silver NOW!
With hyperinflation and risk of economic disaster increasing with each dollar Congress recklessly spends, it pays to be prepared: Consider stocking up on Emergency Supplies:

In a coordinated nationwide demonstration against expansion of government, erosion of Constitutional freedoms, and higher taxes, thousands gathered in protest. The Freedom Factory team covered the Los Angeles demonstration, which occured at the Santa Monica Pier.
The event was a big success, pulled together in just four days by Top Conservatives On Twitter (TCOT) via grassroots social networking. Tools like Twitter and Facebook brought over an hundred people together on a Friday morning to support the broader national protest.
Rather than dumping tea into the Pacific ocean, these modern day patriots ceremonially threw bacon bits over the edge of the pier to signify disgust over pork spending.
A diverse array of people came together in protest:




Our correspondent, Natalie Porter, covered the event. We’re working on editing video content for interviews with the event’s coordinators, special guests, and attendees. Check back this evening for the uploaded video.
As the young patriots in the above picture wisely advise us: “No civilization ever taxed itself into prosperity.”
