Good news everyone - Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has joined the 8/27 FreedomWorks Take America Back Convention lineup!

Bachmann has been a stalwart defender of liberty and supporter of the tea party movement.  She is also a Contract with America signer and we're thrilled to have her join us on Friday. See below for Bachamann's speech on April 15 at the DC Tax Day Tea Party.

But wait, there's more!  For anyone concerned about getting tickets to the event, there will be some available at the door on 8/27.  You can purchase tickets at the C Street Entrance  from 12 pm on.   See you there!

Utah Senate candidate and FreedomWorks PAC Champion of Freedom Mike Lee has announced that he will be attending our Take America Back 2010 Convention on 8/27.

Lee made headlines when he helped oust incumbent and big government advocate Bob Bennett during the Utah Republican convention and went on to defeat Tim Bridgewater in a close primary contest, 51-49% .

FreedomWorks Chairman Dick Armey on Lee during the primary:

"The candidacy of Mike Lee for the Utah Senate seat currently occupied by Bob Bennett, represents another opportunity for true-blue conservative, limited government advocates to elevate a serious reformer rooted in free-market policy over an establishment politician. Lee’s passion for constitutionally limited government and market based policy reform is clear. I believe he is someone who can emerge as a leader for fiscal discipline on the national stage.”

Help us welcome Mike Lee to that national stage by joining us at the Take America Back Convention on 8/27. At the convention, you can meet other grassroots activists, learn new Get Out the Vote (GOTV) techniques and hear from more FreedomWorks PAC Champions of Freedom. General admission tickets are still available for $25 which includes a t-shirt, and Red, Hot, & Blue BBQ dinner.
