We will be focusing our attention on the national debt, state budget, dissolution of leadership PAC's, funding of public lobbyists, state funded advertising and other areas of abuse.

Why should you attend this rally? If you are happy with the way your state and federal government is being run, then by all means, stay home. If you want your personal freedoms restored and protected, if you want your elected officials to hear your voice and vote for the issues that concern you and be held accountable, and if you still believe in "one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all", then come join us.

The Columbia TEA Party has hundreds of active members and we have been fighting to restore Fiscal Responsibility, Limited Government and Adherence to the Constitution since May of 2009. We do NOT endorse candidates for office, but we monitor their actions very closely during the election process and follow up on them even more closely after they are elected in order to hold them accountable.
