Cook County’s Sales Taxes are out of control. The 10.25% retail sales tax rate in Chicago is the highest in the U.S!

Schaumburg’s 12% Bar & Restaurant Tax is the highest in the history of the nation!

It’s time we stand up and be heard. We’re not going to take it anymore. Sales taxes must come down before all of our retail business and jobs move to bordering counties and states.

Inspired by the Millions of citizens across the country who have participated in 1,000 of tea party parades & protests we will show our support for low taxes on Labor Day this year.

The Cook County Labor Day Tea Party Parade with the Schaumburg Freedom Coalition will be held at the Schaumburg Septemberfest Labor Day Parade Monday September 7, 2009.

Expected attendance for Schaumburg’s annual parade is close to 75,000 with many politicians and political parties involved.

Let’s get more people to line up with the Schaumburg Freedom Coalition to fight high taxes than all other political organization combined, and let them hear our low tax & fiscal responsibility message!

9:30 AM Parade Line Up (line up order TBD)
10 AM Parade Start
Parade will kick-off promptly at 10 am. Line-up will be on Wise Road between Roselle Road and Plum Grove Road at 9-9:30 am. Wise Road will close between Roselle and Plum Grove Roads at 9 am.

Prior to line up the parade marchers should park & meet up at the South West corner of the Jewel-Osco parking lot at the corner of Roselle & Wise Roads.

1151 S Roselle Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60193

Additional parking opposite of Jewel/Osco parking lot at Schaumburg Town Center on other side of Roselle Rd.

If you happen to be late find a spot along the parade route and join us as we walk by.

Please forward this invitation to all of your friends and family that want to reduce high taxes and have fiscally responsible government.

Announcing the Midwest Liberty Fest: Activism, Education and Celebration

The DuQuoin (IL) State Fairgrounds will be brought to life by the Spirit of Liberty on October 9, 10 and 11 as grassroots activists from across the political spectrum and across the nation gather for the Midwest Liberty Fest. Participants will have the opportunity to learn from successful activists, hear from current candidates and celebrate the growing movement toward freedom and constitutional government.

The planning committee, sponsored by the Liberty Restoration Project, consists of activists who decided to provide the public with an event centered around ideas that unite us instead of divide us. The goal is to empower concerned citizens through the knowledge and real experiences of successful movers and shakers; everyone should be able to walk away with action items and project ideas in hand!

Some of the most well-known names in the liberty movement will be paired with up-and-coming leaders. From Adam Kokesh, the Iraq veteran and anti-war activist turned Congressional Candidate, to Michael Badnarik, the 2004 Libertarian candidate for President and Constitutional Scholar, to Sheriff Richard Mack, the man educating our nation’s law enforcement on their Constitutional role, attendees will have the opportunity to learn from some serious movers and shakers.

Interested speakers, musicians or sponsors should send a letter of request to the planning team at the following email address: team@midwestlibertyfest.com.

Donations will provide transportation for speakers, location rental and insurance costs, and promotional materials such as radio and television ads. Keep your eyes on www.midwestlibertyfest.com for an up-to-the-minute confirmed speakers list and the upcoming announcement of our commemorative ticket.
