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.

The Chicago Libertarian Party Meetup Group

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.
