The Chicago Libertarian Party Meetup Group

On Wednesday August 5th, the goal here is to have as many members of the CLP call and or email both Senators Burris and Durbin and ask for their support and cosponsorship of Senate Bill S.604.

Senate Bill S.604 is the following "A bill to amend title 31, United States Code, to reform the manner in which the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System is audited by the Comptroller General of the United States and the manner in which such audits are reported, and for other purposes." This bill supports House Resolution HR 1207 sponsored by Ron Paul.

Lets get as many people as possible to let them know we will not stand any more for the Fraudulant Reserve’s secrecy! Here is their contact information:

Dick Durbin: http://durbin.senate….
WASHINGTON, D.C. (202) 224-2152
CHICAGO (312) 353-4952

Roland Burris: http://burris.senate….
WASHINGTON, D.C. (202) 224-2854
CHICAGO (312) 886-3506

Lets take it to them! Lets get at least 50 members reply Yes to this invite and then call!

The IL 4th District Coordinator for the Campaign for Liberty and other IL residents will be calling Congressman Gutierrez’s office on Friday, July 31, to encourage him to cosponsor HR1207.

The number is (202) 225-8203.

To culminate the day of calling, we will meet at the Wicker Park Starbucks at 3:45 where we will organize and walk down to his office to deliver our HR1207 petitions. I would like to invite Libertarian members to join us in calling or visiting his office.

Feel free to contact dtm1776@gmail.com with any questions.

Summer is drawing to a close and everyone is back in town (mostly). Electioneering for 2010 is beginning and we have laid the groundwork. For this meeting we have three things on the agenda:

1. We will plan our voter registration program. This will include:
A. Developing a strategy for which neighborhoods to target for voter registration;
B. preliminary design for materials to pass out at / in conjunction with voter registration;
C. Selecting a time and location for our first voter registration drive;

2. We will discuss known / expected candidates that advocate our views and identify concrete steps that we can AND WILL take to support our candidates. EVERY ONE OF US will leave with a commitment to perform some concrete action in support of a Libertarian or Libertarian leaning candidate.

3. We will identify potential Libertarian or Libertarian leaning candidates BY NAME and which office we think they should run for. Then, we will (I bet you can guess what’s coming next) identify concrete steps that we can AND WILL take to recruit these candidates. EVERY ONE OF US will leave with a commitment to perform some concrete action to recruit a Libertarian or Libertarian leaning candidate.

4. Additionally, we will open the floor to any and all questions, concerns, or great thoughts you may have. I look forward to seeing you all on August 6th!

Not your normal meetup group event? Well, you could say that. This event is actually a week long process of getting people interested in purchasing black colored End the Fed t-shirts. Here is the link if you want to see what they look like, http://endthefed.us/o…

The idea is simple. If you are interested in purchasing one or more of the black shirts then reserve yes for this meeting and state the sizes and quantites that you are interested in. The price is going to be $16.00 per shirt regardless of quantity. Obviously the more we get the lower our price.

The idea here is is that, assuming we get over 12 shirts ordered, the Liberterian party will keep any difference between the $16.00 price and what they are actually purchased for (Based on quantity) minus shipping.

So if you choose to order a shirt through this event, you an pick them up at any of the meetings that the Libertarian party throws or if you work or live in the loop, please contact me and we can arrange a physical handoff of the shirts downtown. If you kow someone from the group that can grab them for you then just have them bring the money.

I will cut off orders by the end of the 24th of July at 7:00PM

When they arrive, I think it would be a good idea to have a tax protest/end the fed rally at a later date with everyone who ordered them wearing them while jogginh down the bike path on Lake Shore Drive some Saturday displaying the shirts so we could have mass impressions on all of lookers as they jog by. This is a great way to marke the concept of Liberty!

Thanks in advance for your support.

End the Fed T-Shirt Purchase event

The Chicago Libertarian Party Meetup Group

All ages can attend.

The Chicago Libertarian Party starts its business meetings at 7pm. The business typically takes about an hour to get through, after which we stay around for a couple of hours socializing.

Feel free to show up any time after 6:00. The business portion of the meeting is open for everyone to attend. Now is a great time to get involved, as we work begin the groundwork for local elections in 2010.

The Lincoln Restaurant is near the intersection of Lincoln, Irving Park and Damen. There is parking, and I believe that the Irving Park brown line station is open again.
