HOUSTON—The Tea Party Express II: Countdown to Judgment Day is holding rallies that seek to educate, entertain, and encourage patriotic Americans who support the conservative message and placing focus on health care reform. The group made a stop at the George R. Brown Convention Center in downtown Houston on Saturday.
Organizers say the Tea Party Express II is a 19-day, 7,000 mile journey across the country with a caravan of vehicles holding tea party rallies in 38 cities across America. The Tea Party Express is advocating for less government spending, an end to the bailouts, lower taxes, opposition to government-run healthcare and opposition to the growth in the size and intrusiveness of government in general.
Large crowds filled Houston city streets in support of the cause.
