Lower Shore Chapter Gaining Steam

The Lower Shore chapter of Americans for Prosperity had its second meeting last night and its clear people are calling for action. Many of us have depended on somebody else to take care of the fight against expanding government and growing taxation that we see on at an every level.

For years, we thought our leaders and representatives were looking out for us, the people. We have gone about our daily business with the trust and the hope that this belief was true. We know now it is not.

We realized that if we don’t fight back, who will fight for us? If we don’t fight now, when will we?

The time is now and I am asking you to please join with us to work on local state and federal issues that infringe on our freedom. Together we are strong. We need to build this network and we need to build our strength as a group. Please talk to your friends and neighbors and bring them along to the next scheduled events.

Tax Protest- Somerset County: Tuesday June 9th at 2pm in Princess Anne. This is our first call to action to our government, as a chapter, so please make every effort to be there. Details to follow.

Please write letter to:

Somerset County Commissioners Office
Attention: James Ring
11916 Somerset Avenue
Princess Anne, MD 21853

Our next meeting is scheduled for June 16 at 7pm. Please mark your calendars and bring your friends. Location details to follow. We are looking for a permanent meeting spot, so if you have any suggestions for a central location off of 13 where we can have some privacy we would appreciate any offers.

The next Salisbury Tea Party is 9am – 12 noon on July 4th at the city courthouse steps. Be there!

I want to thank the people who have stepped up to chair various committee positions. Steve Willing has offered to be the chair for the Somerset committee. Patrick Nelms has offered to serve for an Education Committee, Co-chaired by Michael Calpino. Mike Brewington is heading up the Second Amendment Chair position and is starting a NRA chapter here on the shore.

We will continue to build this network, educate ourselves on local, state, and national policy while we learn how to effectively make our voices heard. We want to know what issues concern you the most. We want to hear your ideas and we want you to get your friends involved.

WE, together, are Americans For Prosperity!
