If you decide to go, we'd suggest that you take a letter from yourself to your delegate or Senator and give them your thoughts on specific bills or even the Governor's plans to
sell off the ABC's stores. Please leave the letter with them. Professional lobbyists tell us a letter is equal to a lot of
phone calls. | |

The march in Virginia will be on Monday, April 12, 2010 on the grounds of the state Capital. The national march in D.C. will take place on Monday, April 19, 2010 on the grounds of the Washington Monument.

The September 2010 March On DC is on.
On January 29, 2010 a national board of advisors, consisting of members from some of the country’s largest independent grassroots conservative minded organizations participated in a roundtable conference to plan for the September 2010 events to be held on Capitol Hill, Washington DC. Despite rumors and speculation concerning fragmentation within the conservative movement, many national leaders have united for a common cause. While few can logically deny that the September 12th 2009 “Taxpayers March on DC” was a huge success, organizers for the 2010 event are redesigning the format, planning early and this year they promise to deliver a message to Washington DC that both houses of Congress and the Administration, Democrat, Republican or Independent, will not be able to ignore. In a statement released by one board member on Saturday, January 30th, the message was pretty clear, “We the people are taking our country back, one seat at a time. Republicans, Democrats and Independents will stand united to make one very clear statement. “Change your ways or get out of our house.” If our representatives choose to continue to conduct business as usual, we the people will conduct our business. Working tirelessly to see they are voted out of office in November”. A spokesman for the group stated that “With the November 2nd elections just 7 weeks from the September 2010 event, the timing could not be better. Once again Americans from every corner of the nation will unite on Capitol Hill for a nonpartisan march and rally. This year there will be no doubt this is a “We the People, For the People, By the People” event. Not one dime will be accepted from corporate sponsors, PAC’s, political parties or political organizations. All of our board members have a complete understanding that they will not receive any remuneration for their services.” “The speakers for the 2010 event will consist primarily of everyday American citizens without regard to their political party. The message will be one of Unity, Government Reform, the Constitution as well as the upcoming November elections. All speakers will have to be approved by the board with a majority vote and no one will be paid to speak or appear. This year we simply refuse to provide a platform for anyone who wishes to bash the other party. Both parties must accept responsibility for the state of our union”. “Our intent is to have representation from every state and all will be involved in the decision making process. Our focus is not on any particular groups or organizations but rather on individual leadership abilities, unity and cooperation. We will welcome the participation of all of the November Candidates and will be providing them with a unique opportunity to speak directly to their constituents at pre-determined locations throughout Washington DC .” The 2010 Event will take place from the 9th - 12th of September. The “official” web site for the event will be located at MARCHONDC.org. We will be working very closely with all of the media this year and welcome their presence. The official name of the “Event” will be released in the next press release.
