A clear majority of voters believe the United States was right to take military action against Iran’s leadership to protect American lives and deter future attacks. Eighty-seven percent of Republicans agree. “For nearly half a century, the Iranian regime has sponsored terrorism, threatened our allies, and repeatedly targeted Americans. The American people know that weakness only enables more aggression from regimes like Iran’s. “Our poll shows that Americans not only support the actions that were taken, but they also believe the United States must finish the job to protect our country and our allies from the ongoing threat posed by the Iranian regime. “Protecting American lives should always be the top priority for our leaders. The American people understand...

"Just as importantly, our...
Tea Party Patriots Action Urges “No” Vote on War Powers Resolution
March 3, 2026 Atlanta, GA – This week, the Senate and House are expected to vote on a War Powers resolution that would prohibit President Trump from taking further military action in Iran without explicit congressional authorization. In anticipation of that vote, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Every Member of Congress should vote ‘no’ on the War Powers resolution. President Trump has wielded authority consistent with his Constitutional powers. Iran is the world's largest state sponsor of terror and it cannot be allowed to possess the world's deadliest weapon. Even after the President boldly attacked Iran's nuclear facilities last summer, the Iranian mullahs remained intransient about giving up their nuclear program. The status quo was untenable, and the President was not going to wait for Iran for join North Korea as an explicitly anti-American member of the nuclear club. The consequences for America, Israel, and our other Middle Eastern allies would be unthinkable. "Tea Party Patriots Action was heavily involved in opposing the Obama administration's 2015 nuclear deal. We hosted then-candidate Trump at our major rally in front of the Capitol opposing the deal. We supported his decision to tear up the deal in 2018. We supported his attack on Iran's nuclear facilities last year. We fully support Operation Epic Fury. Our thoughts and prayers are with our brave servicemen and women in uniform as they carry out this vitally important mission. They are keeping America safe."

Tea Party Patriots Action on Trump’s State of the Union Address: Record Accomplishments, Record Goals
February 24, 2026 Atlanta, GA – Tonight, President Trump delivered his annual State of the Union address. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Tonight, President Trump knocked it out of the park — he rallied the American people around a message of optimism and confidence — record accomplishments from 2025 and record goals for 2026 and beyond. "The Working Families Tax Cut that the President and Congressional Republicans passed last summer is bolstering our economy and making life more affordable. After the worst inflation in generations under the previous administration, President Trump’s policies are bringing down inflation. We are in the middle of the 'Great Reshoring' as manufacturers move facilities back to the U.S., incentivized by the Working Families Tax Credit. This historic legislation will have equal benefits for America's energy industry, incentivizing energy investment and production here at home, likely creating hundreds of thousands of jobs. "The President's commitment to enforce our immigration laws is just as impressive. The 'Biden Border Crisis' is over. Daily apprehensions at the border are down about 80 percent since President Trump took office. Over three million illegal aliens — many of whom had criminal records — have left the country. Their departures make our communities safer. Indeed, the national homicide rate fell by about 20 percent in 2025, falling to its lowest level since records began over a century ago. "Promises made, promises kept. This is what the conservative grassroots have been demanding. This is what the American people voted for. "When it comes to voting, the integrity of our elections must be protected and enhanced. This is why Tea Party Patriots Action is pushing so hard on the SAVE America Act. This is the perfect time to pass the legislation with...
Tea Party Patriots Action Urges House to Pass SAVE America Act
February 9, 2026 Atlanta, GA – This week, the House will vote on the SAVE America Act. This bill strengthens election integrity by requiring states to obtain documentary proof of citizenship before registering anyone to vote in federal elections, and by requiring voters to show a photo ID before voting. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: "We at Tea Party Patriots Action urge every Member of Congress to vote for the SAVE America Act. “In the summer of 2025, we conducted a nationwide, four-week bus tour to rally support for the legislation. We held events in 18 states and concluded the bus tour with a rally on Capitol Hill in which about a dozen Members of Congress, plus about a dozen other conservative leaders, spoke to offer their strong support. "This legislation is wildly popular across the political spectrum. In July of last year, Tea Party Patriots Action commissioned McLaughlin & Associates to conduct a poll of 1,000 likely general election voters, and it found that 83% agree that ‘proof of United States citizenship should be required to register to vote in American elections’ (13% disagree). Broken down by party, 92% of Republicans, 73% of Democrats, and 82% of Independents agree. “The legacy media keep insisting that requiring proof of citizenship is redundant, because noncitizen voting is already illegal. What they don’t explain is that there is currently no enforcement method to ensure that the law is being followed. This is where the SAVE America Act comes in — it adds an important safety mechanism to ensure the law is being implemented as intended. “Additionally, the bill now contains a requirement that voters show a photo ID before voting. This provision enjoys the same kind of support across...
Tea Party Patriots Action Urges “No” Vote on War Powers Resolution
January 7, 2026 Atlanta, GA – This week, the Senate is expected to vote on a War Powers resolution that would prohibit President Trump from taking further military action in Venezuela without explicit congressional authorization. In anticipation of that vote, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Every senator should vote 'no' on the War Powers resolution. President Trump has wielded authority consistent with his Constitutional powers. Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro was under indictment on federal drug trafficking and weapons charges, and Operation Absolute Resolve was an extraction mission designed to capture him and move him to the United States, where he could face justice for his crimes. We should be celebrating Maduro's capture — he was a narco-terrorist responsible for the deaths of untold numbers of Americans. “President Trump took bold action consistent with his 'America First' foreign policy, especially as it pertains to narcotics and illegal immigration. “The Senate should vote down the War Powers resolution and show its support for President Trump's leadership, our brave men and women in uniform who planned and executed the mission, and the prospect of better days ahead for the long-suffering people of Venezuela."

Tea Party Patriots Action Urges “No” Vote on ObamaCare Premium Subsidy Extension
January 7, 2026 Atlanta, GA – This week, the House will vote on legislation that would renew for three years the Covid-era Obamacare premium subsides that expired on December 31. The vote was forced on Speaker Johnson through a discharge petition signed by all House Democrats and four House Republicans. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Obamacare broke our healthcare system, as we at Tea Party Patriots Action have been warning about for over 15 years. Through this bill to extend taxpayer-paid subsidies to insurance companies, the Democrats are demanding a bailout worth about $100 billion, no strings attached. The Senate already rejected a three-year extension of these Obamacare premium subsidies. Additionally, the House has already passed legislation that reforms our healthcare system in a patient-centered, market-based manner. “Four House Republicans have signed the discharge petition to force this week's vote. No additional Republicans should join them in voting for it. We should be rolling back Obamacare, not extending it." In November, Ms. Martin authored a Daily Caller op-ed titled On Obamacare, We Conservatives Were Right All Along.

As Senate Judiciary Committee Investigates, Tea Paty Patriots Action Urges Judge Boasberg Impeachment
January 7, 2026 Atlanta, GA – Today, the Senate Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights will hold a hearing entitled "Impeachment: Holding Rogue Judges Accountable." U.S. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg will be among the judges that Senators will examine during the hearing. Judge Boasberg wrongly barred President Trump from deporting Venezuelan gang members under the Alien Enemies Act, and directed officials to halt or turn around any planes carrying illegal aliens covered by the order. In anticipation of the hearing, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Judicial independence does not provide immunity from common sense. When a federal judge consistently puts his own political ideology over his sworn duty to defend the Constitution, he puts himself at risk of impeachment. In the case of Judge Boasberg, his repeated attempts to stonewall the Trump administration's legitimate enforcement of our immigration laws were later overruled by the Supreme Court, and rightfully so — because Boasberg is an ideologue, not a fair arbiter of justice. “We have since learned that Judge Boasberg approved secret FBI subpoenas and invasive surveillance tactics that allowed the Biden Administration to spy on President Trump and his allies as part of the FBI’s 'Arctic Frost' operation. From Boasberg's standpoint, the weaponization of government represented by 'Arctic Frost' was a feature, not a bug. “Congress has a duty to impeach judges who abuse their power. Judge Boasberg has clearly done so and should be removed from office. Other left-wing judges who block legitimate Trump administration actions may also merit impeachment, but Boasberg is the most deserving and he should be removed expeditiously." In November 2025, Ms. Martin authored a Daily Caller op-ed urging Congress to impeach Judge Boasberg. For more information or to schedule...
Tea Party Patriots Action Slams Democrats for Shutting Down Government
September 30, 2025 Atlanta, GA – Last night, Senate Democrats voted against taking up a clean continuing resolution to keep the federal government open while negotiations over a longer-term spending plan continue. Consequently, unless Senate Democrats change their minds today, the federal government will begin a temporary partial shutdown beginning at 12:01 am tomorrow morning. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Last night, Senate Democrats voted to shut down the federal government. They are playing politics, and it will backfire. “Senate Majority Leader Thune is rightfully holding the line against the Democrats' outrageous demand for an extension of the extended Obamacare premium tax credits. These tax credits were always meant to be temporary, and extending them would cost $350 billion over the next decade. In addition, the Democrats are also demanding a restoration of the Medicaid savings the Congress enacted just a few months ago. Restoring that wasteful spending — which, among other things, included taxpayer-funded health care for illegal aliens — would cost another trillion dollars. But it doesn’t stop there — Democrats are also demanding the president give up his authority to rescind funds previously approved by the Congress, an authority presidents have employed for centuries to save taxpayers money. Insisting on attaching these measures to a continuing resolution — a short-term spending bill meant to keep government open while negotiations continue — is an unacceptable demand, and they know it. “The Democrats' liberal base is still annoyed at Minority Leader Schumer for not saying ‘no’ to President Trump every chance he gets. Schumer wants to keep his job as Minority Leader, and he wants to avoid a primary challenge from his left when he runs for reelection in 2028. Let’s keep that in mind to put...
Tea Party Patriots Action Applauds Georgia Legal Ruling on Trump-Fani Willis Case, Urges Further Action
September 16, 2025 Atlanta, GA – Today, the Georgia Supreme Court denied Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' appeal to resume prosecuting President Trump and others for wildly inappropriate charges related to alleged election interreference in Georgia in the aftermath of the 2020 election. This means the state attorney would have to take the case if it were to continue. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “This is a very big win for President Trump and the Georgians who were wrongly and maliciously prosecuted by Fani Willis, who abused her office and lied about it under oath. The President and the others she prosecuted are not guilty of 'election interference.' Indeed, Willis herself engaged in election interference by trying to put the leader of the Republican Party behind bars during the 2024 campaign on phony charges. “The Prosecuting Attorney Council should move to dismiss Willis' case against the President and his allies, and end this nightmare once and for all. And the defendants’ legal fees and costs should be reimbursed. “Furthermore, Willis should be investigated to determine if she may have committed crimes in her witch hunt against President Trump and his allies. If she did, she must be held accountable for such actions." For more information or to schedule an interview with Jenny Beth Martin, please contact TJ Winer at [email protected].
