A grassroots organization that has no official status in Congress as a political party and has no central organizational structure or governing body. Originally started after a daily news commentator at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange gave a monologue suggestimg government spending and size was out of control and that Americans should have another Tea Party like the one we had for England during the Revolution.

Since that statement groups identifying with the call to action have gathered to protest big government and spending and have over time refined their protests to reiterate the importance of the Founders actions and adherence by government officials to the Principles that formed the U.S. Constitution.
