AFP-Maryland Kicks Off “NOW or NEVER Maryland” Bus Tour Friday

-Three day tour will stop at a dozen rallies around state to advocate free market issues-

ANNAPOLIS – The Maryland chapter of Americans for Prosperity will kick off the “NOW or NEVER Maryland” bus tour on Friday in Berlin, MD at 8am.  The bus will stop at a dozen rallies around the state over a three day period to advocate for free market policies and educate citizens on where lawmakers stand on important issues.

“If Marylanders do not rally for freedom now, they should be prepared to never have it again,” said AFP-Maryland state director Dave Schwartz.  “Over the last year the government has taken over our health care, lawmakers have created record-high deficits and our state budget is out of control.  The big-government ideas have failed.  Citizens of Maryland deserve an alternative – less taxes, a friendlier business climate to create jobs and a government that is more responsive to those who fund it.”

Details of the “NOW or NEVER Maryland” bus tour, along with the locations and times of each stop, can be found at www.NowOrNeverMD.com.  Confirmed speakers at the various rallies include: former US Senate candidate Jim Rutledge, former Gubernatorial candidate Brian Murphy, Congressional candidate and TEA Party activist Charles Lollar, former Maryland first lady Kendel Ehrlich and AFP National President Tim Phillips.
