JOIN US at the "Line In The Sand Rally!"
March 5, 2011 @ 1PM
South Steps of the Texas Capitol on Austin
Come hear Chairman Bryan Malatesta Speak this Saturday
March 5, 2011 is the 175th anniversary of William Barret Travis drawing the line in the sand at the Alamo. On this day, Texans will draw another line in the sand for the Texas Legislature.
Article 1 Section 1 of the Texas Constitution reads:
"Texas is a free and independent State, subject only to the Constitution of the United States, and the maintenance of our free institutions and the perpetuity of the Union depend upon the pres...ervation of the right of local self-government, unimpaired to all the States."
Article 1 Section 2 of the Texas Constitution reads:
"All political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and instituted for their benefit. The faith of the people of Texas stands pledged to the preservation of a republican form of government, and, subject to this limitation only, they have at all times the inalienable right to alter, reform or abolish their government in such manner as they may think expedient."
The Texas Legislature has allowed other states to take the lead on issues of state sovereignty and independence. It is time that we gather together and send them a message that a line in the sand has been drawn.
Whether you are a Tea Partier, Tenther or anyone else who believes in these key principles from the Texas Bill of Rights, you need to be there to send that message with us.
The cutoff for filing new bills is March 11th. This could be our last chance to move the Legislature to action in this session. Let's show them that the freedom and independence of Texas is more important than slot machines and iffy committee assignments.
To quote Col. William Barret Travis: "I shall have to fight the enemy on his own terms, yet I am ready to do it, and if my countrymen do not rally to my relief, I am determined to perish in the defense of this place, and my bones shall reproach my country for her neglect."
Give his sacrifice meaning. Join us at the Capitol on March 5th.

We are the OFFICIAL Constitution Party of Texas
Accept no substitutes, and do not be fooled by imposters!
Yes, believe it or not, there are at least two other groups out there who like our concept so much that they have stolen our logos, our platform, and even our name! It's nice to be popular, but this is the real deal.
Just ask our National CP Chairman, Jim Clymer.
