Over 35 concerned citizens braved brutally cold temperatures to attend the Worcester County TEA Party meeting on Thursday, February 19th. The featured speakers were members of the Worcester County Sheriff' s Department Criminal Enforcement Team who gave an informative and disturbing presentation regarding the heroin epidemic on the Eastern Shore and their efforts to combat the problem. State's Attorney Beau Oglesby and Dr. Andrea Mathias, Deputy Health Officer for the County Health Department, were also on hand to report on the problem from their perspectives. It was obvious to the attendees that we are fortunate to have a dedicated team working on this issue.
In addition, Chief Deputy Dale Smack and Detective/Corporal Alex Kagan reported on the recent child pornography sting. Chief Deputy Smack also discussed House Bill 28 regarding school security and outlined the many reasons why the Sheriff's office is opposed to this legislation.
The mission of the Worcester County TEA Party is to protect and promote the principles embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and Bill of Rights through attracting, educating and mobilizing the people to secure public policy consistent with the core values of fiscal responsibility, open and constitutionally limited government, and free markets.
All are invited to attend our next meeting on Friday, March 20th at the Ocean Pines Library. The guest speaker will be Mike Bradley, morning host of the "Talk of Delmarva" on WGMD (92.7 FM) out of Lewes, Delaware. Doors open at 6:30 and the meeting begins at 7:00 p.m.

ReplyDeleteThat bill is for the orphan court judges, but Mike Miller will soon be introducing something for circuit court judges.
For years the liberals have been trying to eliminate judicial elections because in most years new judges are appointed by liberal Democrat governors. Just look at what Glendenning and O'Malley have done to the courts by their appointments. It's just as bad as what Obama has done to the Supreme Court and other federal courts.
