Tuesday 11:30am: Help Bring Down Tea Party Republican Allen West

[lynne purvis]

Protest at Allen West's Fundraising Lunch
Tuesday, February 21st at 11:30am
Meet on the corner of Hammon Avenue and South County Road, in front of the Colony Hotel.

There is metered public parking on Hammon Avenue.

I am part of a group called Stand Up Florida. We are working to unseat Allen West from US Congress, and this is one of our first big events! Please come out, it'll only take 90 minutes of your time!

Congressman Allen West is a leader of the Tea Party, he is extremely conservative, anti-immigrant, pro-corporate tax breaks, anti-abortion access, pro-increasing military, etc...  He calls unemployment benefits "political gimickry" and refused to vote extending unemployment insurance while his working class constituency is suffering a 9.9% unemployment rate. Time and time again Allen West champions the issues of the 1%... well this time, tell him NO MORE!

Once again he shows his true colors as Tuesday, February 21st, Allen West will be mingling with 1%ers for his campaign fundraiser at the lavish Colony Hotel in Palm Beach Island... one of the richest areas in the entire state of Florida. Join us as we DEMAND Allen West represent the interest of the 99% and stop bowing to the ruthless greed of the very few.
