KAY IVEY TO ATTEND NATIONAL TEA PARTY
CONVENTION IN NASHVILLE THIS WEEKEND
Will post dispatches from event on
website and via Facebook & Twitter
(MONTGOMERY – February 4, 2010)
State Treasurer and Republican gubernatorial candidate Kay Ivey is heading to
Nashville for the very first national Tea Party convention this Friday and
Saturday, and she plans on keeping Alabamians informed on what’s happening
there.
“The Tea Party movement is shaking up the political
landscape all across the country,” Ivey said. “Its members were a key
force in Scott Brown’s upset Senate victory in Massachusetts a few weeks ago.
And they’re certainly adding an exciting new dimension to politics here in Alabama,
too. I’m proud to stand alongside these modern-day patriots.”
Ivey and some staffers will attend convention
meetings at the Opryland Hotel in Nashville. Ivey will periodically update her
supporters on happenings through blog postings on her campaign website and via
Facebook and Twitter.
“The Tea Party
movement brings passion and commitment to the political process,” Ivey
said. “These folks are doers, not talkers. They are genuine
conservatives and they care passionately about the same thing I care about,
such as getting the government off our backs and keeping it out of our pockets.
My campaign for governor is based on making government work more efficiently
and more effectively with fewer tax dollars. The Tea Party movement wants that
too. I’m happy to share everything that will be going on at this historic
gathering with folks in Alabama. We have a long road ahead of us as we
set about reclaiming our government. But I am confident we can make it
capable of responding to the people’s needs and desires once more.”
