AFP will be holding a mass demonstration and protest in New York City, September 8 at 11am.

This event will take place right at the RGGI offices on Wall St. (90 Church St.) at the exact same time when the next secretive "Cap & Trade" auction is taking place.

This is our chance to blow the lid off of this "Cap & Trade" scheme that is already taxing businesses and consumers in our state.

You and I need to stop this scam now before it spreads to other states and permanently wrecks our nation's economy.

Americans for Prosperity Foundation–Michigan announced that Congressman Pete Hoekstra and Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard are the first two candidates to confirm their participation in the gubernatorial debate at the Michigan Defending the American Dream Summit. The debate, which will conclude the daylong event, will be moderated by Fox News contributor Phil Kerpen and focus on economic and budgetary issues.

When the Michigan legislature returns from their spring break, they will have their plates full (of tax increases). Governor Granholm and several of her legislative friends are looking for more money. Bills have already been introduced to increase taxes and fees on:

 High school sports
 Bottled water
 Entertainment
 Vending machine items
 Vacant houses
 Property transfers
 Abandoned vehicles
 Septic systems
 Court filings
