(Milwaukee) – Whether lawmakers like it or not, November is Coming! And on Tax Day, April 15th, they will be hearing it directly from the people of Wisconsin. The State Director of Americans for Prosperity, Mark Block says taxpayers can’t be ignored anymore.

“On the anniversary of the largest Taxpayer Tea Party held on the steps of the State Capitol, we are launching the “November is Coming” campaign to highlight the explosion of the Tea Party movement in Wisconsin,” said Mark Block, State Director of Americans for Prosperity. “The enormous growth of activists from all across the state exemplifies the mood across the country, “said Block. We are highlighting local leaders from communities all across our great state as they are the ones who have helped to mobilize an army of individuals who will no longer sit back and let government trample their rights and destroy their economic futures. They are the ones who have continually helped us to send the message to our legislators that “Enough is Enough” and “November is Coming.”

The Tax-Day Taxpayer Tea Party will be attended by activists from across Wisconsin, many of whom who will then head back to their local areas to lead their own Tea Party gathering. “Our activists are tireless and dedicated,” said Block. “We invite people from every corner of our state to come to Madison on April 15 to hear their stories and to join with us as we let our government officials know we will not take it anymore and that we want legislators who will actually listen to the citizens.”
