Tea Party Patriots Action Blasts Biden Administration for Imposing Vaccine Mandate

Atlanta, GA – The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) officially unveiled its rule requiring private companies with more than 100 employees to mandate vaccinations or regular testing among their workers. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “The Biden Administration’s vaccine mandate is wrong. It tramples individual liberty, by forcing a one-size-fits-all policy on everyone, regardless of their unique individual circumstances. The United States has always respected universal rights and individual preferences, rather than the ambiguous needs of ‘the collective.’ “We are already seeing disruptions, as companies and organizations start enforcing mandates at the direction of the Biden Administration. Consequently, we are losing doctors, nurses, pilots, police officers, and more. Last year, they were lauded as essential workers and front-line heroes; now they are shunned by the elites who think they know better. “Congress needs to step up and defund this mandate. The next Continuing Resolution or spending bill should explicitly prohibit funding for the mandate.  Those types of bills require a 60-vote majority in the Senate, so Republicans have the leverage to make it happen. “Tea Party Patriots has organized 400 protests nationwide against vaccine and mask mandates, and we will continue doing so as this nightmare continues. We encourage all Americans to join us in this fight.”   To learn more about TPPA’s campaign against medical mandates, click here.

Tea Party Patriots Action Applauds GOP Senators for Standing Firm for the Constitution

Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin released the following statement in response to Republican Senators again taking a bold stand in favor of Constitutional government, preventing passage of the federal takeover of America’s elections. “Today, the Senate voted on the radical ‘Pelosi Power Grab’ and, thankfully, Republicans prevented the bill from advancing. In recent months, states like Georgia, Texas, Arizona, and Florida have strengthened election integrity by making it easier to vote and harder to cheat. The ‘Pelosi Power Grab’ would have undermined these state-led improvements by making it easier to cheat in all 50 states. Far worse, this federal takeover of elections would have permanently established the federal government’s authority over the administration of America’s elections, an area the Constitution properly delegates to states. “Tea Party Patriots Action will continue to fight against any left-wing attempts to usurp the states’ proper role in election administration.”

TEA PARTY PATRIOTS ACTION CONGRATULATES BRAVES ON WINNING WORLD SERIES, SLAMS MLB FOR MOVING ALL-STAR GAME

Atlanta, GA – Tonight, the Atlanta Braves won the World Series. Earlier this year, Major League Baseball moved the All-Star Game from Atlanta to Denver, in protest of Georgia’s election integrity law. Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “Woke goes broke. On a night when the radical leftist agenda was outright denied, it got even sweeter when our hometown Atlanta Braves defeated the Houston Astros and brought home the World Series Championship after Major League Baseball bowed to wokeism and stole the All-Star game from the city of Atlanta earlier this year. “Georgia’s voting law makes it easy to vote and hard to cheat — and, apparently, harder for the Astros to cheat, too — but MLB fell for the far-left’s slander that it was Jim Crow all over again. “Go Braves! Chop on! And Let’s Go Brandon!”

Tea Party Patriots Action Calls on NSBA Leadership to Stop Pushing Critical Race Theory and Resign, Demands FBI Stop Investigating Parents Who Spoke Up at School Board Meetings

Atlanta, GA – On Friday, the National School Boards Association (NSBA) Board of Directors sent a letter to its members apologizing for sending a letter to President Biden urging the FBI to investigate parents as potential domestic terrorists. The NSBA is embroiled in multiple controversies, including mask mandates in schools and the teaching of Critical Race Theory (CRT). Last week, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) released an 88-minute video tutorial educating parents about the NSBA and urging parents to shut it down.  TPPA Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement:  “The NSBA’s apology is too little too late.  The only reason they are apologizing is because of intense media backlash.  Their leadership remains dedicated to left-wing causes, including Critical Race Theory. If the NSBA truly wants to win back support from parents, they should stop pushing CRT and their leadership should resign. “Given the NSBA’s apology, the FBI should immediately cease any investigations into parents who spoke up at local school board meetings.  The FBI should never have done that to begin with.  “Parents who care about their children’s education should be applauded, not treated as potential domestic terrorists.  “Further, the NSBA is apparently more interested in representing the teachers unions than the school boards it claims to support. How else to explain the NSAB's parallel efforts to keep our children masked in school? We now know the teachers unions were influencing the CDC's recommendations for political reasons, and the NSAB went right along. “Public service employees in government agencies such as the FBI and CDC must stop protecting special interests groups and start protecting constitutional rights.” In June, TPPA released a 46-page toolkit educating parents on how to fight NSBA-backed CRT indoctrination. Since August, TPPA has organized 350 protests nationwide against mask and vaccine mandates. TPPA’s video, “Teaching...

Tea Party Patriots Action Calls on Biden to Fire Dr. Fauci After Newest Scandal

Atlanta, GA – This week, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) and 23 other Members of Congress wrote a letter to Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) urging him to respond to allegations that NIAID provided a grant to a laboratory to torture and kill dozens of puppies. Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement:  “Dr Fauci is a dishonest man and it’s time for him to go.  He lied about masks. He lied about funding Gain of Function research. And he lied about the virus’ origins. Now he’s accused of funding experiments that torture puppies.  It’s outrageous. We've shut down the country for the past 18 months because of the word of a dishonest man. That needs to stop. President Biden should fire Dr. Fauci immediately.”

Tea Party Patriots Action Releases Video Tutorial Mobilizing Parents to Shut Down National School Board Association

Atlanta, GA – On Thursday night, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) released an eighty-eight-minute video tutorial educating parents about the National School Board Association (NSBA) and urging parents to shut it down.  The NSBA is embroiled in multiple controversies, including mask mandates in schools and the teaching of Critical Race Theory (CRT). The NSBA collaborated with the Biden White House before sending a letter urging the FBI to investigate parents as potential domestic terrorists. In June, TPP released a 46-page toolkit for parents and students fighting CRT. This week’s video, titled “Teaching Accountability: How the NSBA Works and How to Shut It Down,” can be watched here. TPPA Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “The NSBA has proven beyond any doubt that they do not have the best interests of parents and students in mind. When the NSBA coordinated with the Biden White House on a letter calling parents potential domestic terrorists, that was a betrayal they cannot come back from.  Tea Party Patriots Action has been warning parents about the NSBA for a long time. This summer, we released a 46-page toolkit educating parents on how to fight NSBA-backed Critical Race Theory indoctrination. We’ve been a longstanding and vocal opponent of NSBA-backed mask mandates in schools, including organizing 350 protests nationwide against mask and vaccine mandates. Parents have the power to shut down the NSBA, and they should – using the information in our video tutorial, ‘Teaching Accountability.’ State associations are made up of local school boards. Local and state associations can drop out of the NSBA.  As more associations drop out, NSBA funding will dry up and they will learn the hard way that putting left-wing ideology over parents was a catastrophic mistake. The NSBA is about to be taught true accountability.”

Tea Party Patriots Action Applauds GOP Senators for Blocking ‘Freedom to Cheat Act’ From Advancing

Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin released the following statement in response to Republican Senators blocking the Democrats radical ‘Freedom to Cheat Act’: “Today, the Senate voted on the radical ‘Freedom to Cheat Act’ and thankfully Republicans blocked the bill from advancing. In recent months, states like Georgia, Texas, Arizona, and Florida have strengthened election integrity by making it easy to vote and hard to cheat. The 'Freedom to Cheat Act' would undermine these state-led improvements by making easier to cheat in all 50 states. Tea Party Patriots Action will continue to fight against any left-wing attempts to fundamentally change how our election process works.”

Tea Party Patriots Action Responds to Biden Admin Proposal Tracking All Transactions on Bank Accounts with More Than $600

ATLANTA, GA – Tea Party Patriots Action Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin released the following statement responding to news that the Biden Administration has proposed legislation that would require all banks to report to the IRS account information on bank accounts with a balance of $600 or more. “The Biden Administration apparently wants to compound its previous failures by proposing legislation that would require all banks to report to the IRS account information on bank accounts with a balance of $600 or more, regardless of whether it is a personal or business account. That’s virtually every bank account in the country. This is a contemptible invasion of privacy that would affect almost every single American who has a bank account. The IRS has politically persecuted conservative organizations, including ours. Any plan to give that organization even more power to threaten and intimidate Americans must be resoundingly rejected, defeated, and never proposed again."

I have had the honor and privilege of working with Dr. Ladapo over the past year, and I have seen first-hand that he is a well-researched, well-credentialed medical doctor with strong character and leadership traits.

I thank Governor DeSantis for selecting Dr. Ladapo, and I congratulate Dr. Ladapo on this honor.”

Tea Party Patriots Action Holding Nationwide Protests Against Medical Mandates This Week

Atlanta, GA – Wednesday, September 22, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) will hold nationwide protests against Democrat-led mandates for COVID vaccines and masks. As of Monday, there are 28 confirmed “Just Say NO” events in 17 states and a few dozen more are being finalized. A list of the main events can be found at StopMedicalMandates.com. TPPA Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement: “President Biden’s outrageous vaccine mandate is firing up the grassroots, and we are channeling that energy into a ‘Day of Action’ for those who are ready and eager to stand up for their constitutional rights. No American should be forced by the government – or anyone else, for that matter – to put something in their body they don’t want to take. Nor should anyone be required to wear a mask, especially our children when they’re in school. The growing number of mandates are not about public health, they are about control. They are about trying to replace the doctor-patient relationship with a government-patient relationship, and that’s just wrong. Politicians at all levels are seeing how much they can get away with, and hoping to set precedents that will extend the reach of government even further into our lives permanently. Our protest events this week will show them that large numbers of Americans reject that line of thinking, and will not acquiesce to this would-be tyranny.”   On August 28, TPPA held its first “Day of Action” against medical mandates by holding protests in 79 cities and towns across the country.  In addition to her organizing work with TPPA, Ms. Martin is a mom of boy-girl twins who just began their first year in college. She engages with her local school board in Cherokee County, Georgia, attending local school board meetings, researching issues, informing parents, and...
