Liberty and Union Speech From Congressman Tom McClintock & Sonora Town Hall Feb 22
Posted by: thepinetree on 02/15/2017 01:38 PM
Washington, DC...Mr. Speaker: One of the most troubling aspects of California’s lurch to the left are the rise of two doctrines unknown in this country since the last gasp of the Southern Confederacy. The first is the doctrine of nullification – the notion that states may defy federal laws that their leaders don’t agree with. The most outspoken advocate of this doctrine was John C. Calhoun, who, in referencing our nation’s most revered document – the Declaration of Independence -- observed that our nation had been founded on – his words – “self-evident lies.”
Congressman McClintock will hold a town hall meeting in Mariposa on Tuesday, February 21st, 2017 at 6:00 P.M. The meeting will be held at: Fairgrounds Building A 5007 Fairgrounds Road Mariposa. Congressman McClintock will hold a town hall meeting in Sonora on Wednesday, February 22nd, 2017 at 6:00 P.M. The meeting will be held at: Sonora High School Auditorium. 430 North Washington Street.

Protesters Seeking To Bring 1,000 Plus To McClintock Town Hall In Sonora
Posted by: thepinetree on 02/15/2017 09:53 PM
Sonora, CA...The Indivisible movement is gearing up to remind Republican Congressmen that supporting Donald Trump's Presidency will cause problems for them when they visit their districts. Unfortunately it appears that working relationships between dispirit groups in our communities are at a low point and a positive outcome in the near future looks uncertain at best. From the group's event announcement on Facebook. "We need to rally our like minded neighbors and get to this town hall! Remember this is our congressman who called us "anarchists." Do you disagree? We do. On Wednesday tell him "We Are Indivisible!" Let's remind Tom McClintock that we are his constituents who oppose his Trump supporting agenda and policies. We are not anarchists, we are not violent or intimidating. But we are not intimidated either! We will stand up and fight for our freedoms and values. We are the constituents of CA District 4 and we demand to be represented!
Former Labor Secretary Robert B Reich has even recorded a video with tips for protesters.
Sonora, CA...Every year, hundreds of Tuolumne and Amador County families are eligible for free income tax assistance. Please call for eligibility and to schedule an appointment.
