What we stand for
1. Limited Government – As our Founding Fathers recognized, restraint of government is necessary to protect the liberties of the people.
2. Fiscal Responsibility – Government at all levels must learn to live within its means. To saddle future generations with the crushing burden of our excess spending is unconscionable.
3. Personal Responsibility – Liberty is unsustainable without responsibility. Each citizen must take responsibility for the consequences of his or her own actions while respecting the rights and dignity of others.
4. The Rule of Law – Consistent, independent and uniform application of the law is critical to a free and prosperous society.
5. National Sovereignty – We must maintain a strong national defense, effective security for our borders, and sole control over our land and our laws.
The Wylie Tea Party is a non-partisan, issue based group of regular citizens living in Zip Code 75098.

We have been frustrated in our attempts to reverse the descent of our government into socialism/totalitarianism. It appears as though our protests consistently fall on deaf ears. It is time to take the next step and formally petition our government, our right to which in guaranteed under the first amendment. This e-mail contains a formal copy of a list of grievances and a u-tube link. It is not comprehensive but if only a fraction of these concerns are addressed, it will be a beginning. I would like to see three things done with this list. First, to have it read at every April 15 TEA party. Second, that at those TEA parties, a copy is signed by the participants and sent to the office of Speaker Pelosi via private carrier (Fed Ex, UPS). Finally, it is my desire to have these grievances entered into the congressional record. This will take a very courageous congressperson.
I request your cooperation in the first two and that you forward this e-mail
