Wisconsin Rapids
"Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" -- don't you relish those famous words from the Declaration of Independence? Is that still the hope and promise of America today? Or are those becoming empty words as government takes over more and more of our lives? There will be a grass-roots, nonpartisan Tea Party on Tax Day, April 15, at noon. We will gather at the river, across from the Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune building.

Please come and join us as we take a stand for liberty!

ESCANABA - The Tea (Taxed Enough Already) Party Express held a rally in Escanaba's Ludington Park Friday, where around 500 residents turned out to hear what was being said.

Citing the need for a return to smaller government and constitutional ideals, most people in attendance Friday agreed with the message being delivered.

Several people in attendance carried flags expressing their frustrations, including several that read "Don't Tread on Me," - a flag popular during the Revolutionary War."

ESCANABA - The announcement Friday by Congressman Bart Stupak that he was not seeking re-election was greeted enthusiastically by people attending the Tea Party rally in Ludington Park.

Bill Isetts Sr., of Escanaba, who was present for the rally, said he supported what the grassroots organization stood for.

"Enough is enough already," said Isetts. "The current health care legislation stinks.It's as phony as a $3 bill."

Isetts also said as the government continues to take more and more money, it is becoming ridiculous and no one in Washington is listening."

ESCANABA - Many were shocked to learn of Congressman Bart Stupak's decision to retire, an announcement he made Friday. Local residents shared their reactions - which included disappointment, sadness and understanding - to the news that the man who had represented the Upper Peninsula for 18 years would step down.

Several local residents said they would be sorry to see Stupak vacate his seat. Many felt he represented the Upper Peninsula well and worked hard for the well-being of his constituents.

"I hate to see him step down because he's done a lot for Michigan," said Peg Bartol, Escanaba. "With his wisdom and knowledge of our area, it's sad to see him step down.""
