Tea Party Express Condemns Healthcare Vote By Congress

"Shame On Them" Says Tea Party Leaders, "We're Going to Vote Them Out of Office in 2010"

The leadership of the Tea Party Express (website: tonight denounced the vote by the House of Representatives (220-215) to pass a healthcare bill that includes a government-run component.

"Shame on them! Congress chose once again to defy the will of the people who have spoken out at tea parties and town halls against this big government plan, because the politicians cared more about growing the size, power and control of government than what the people wanted," said Mark Williams, Co-Chair of the Tea Party Express.

"The politicians forget that the Constitution begins with the words, 'We The People,' not 'We the Government.' The people have made it clear they did not want this quasi-socialistic plan, and since they haven't gotten the message then in 2010 we're going to be handing out pink slips to these politicians. Enjoy your final days in office, and start searching the want-ads for a new job, because we're going to vote you out of office," said Deborah Johns, Co-Chair of the Tea Party Express.

The Tea Party Express is currently conducting a national cross-country tour holding tea party rallies in 40-cities across the country to defeat the efforts to impose a government-run healthcare plan and other related issues.

On Sunday the Tea Party Express will hold rallies in Baton Rouge, LA and Jackson, MS, and will continue through the southeast. On Tuesday, November 10th the Tea Party Express will hold a giant rally in Beaufort, SC headlined by Congressman Joe Wilson.
