The purpose for the Monmouth Tea Party

The impetus for the Tea Party movement is excessive government spending and taxation. Our mission is to attract, educate, organize, and mobilize our fellow citizens to secure public policy consistent with our three core values of Fiscal Responsibility, Constitutionally Limited Government and Free Markets.

We have moved off wordpress and are now hosting our own web site.

Monmouth Tax Day Tea Party

The corn fields of Monmouth, Illinois....actually the Quad at Monmouth College will be filled with people on April 15th, 2010(Tax Day) to show our support of bringing the government back to its roots. This rally is to promote the ideas that our founders had, and instilled in the Constitution and Bill Rights.

Featured speakers will be Professor Richard Johnston of Monmouth College's Political Economy and Commerce Department, Bobby Schilling-Republican candidate running for Congress on a small government, fiscally responsible platform against Democrat Rep. Phil Hare in Illinois' 17th district. Other speakers are being added and will be announced soon.

This is not so much a protest, but rather a rally for the republic. A republic that believes in civil liberties, low taxes, and a low spending-limited federal government.

If you'd like to help out let us know here on facebook and we will get you started.

Thank you
