Republican Reps. Eric Cantor of Virginia and Joe Wilson of South Carolina introduced a resolution Tuesday afternoon honoring demonstrators who marched in "tea party" protests in Washington on Sept. 12,
Talking Points Memo reports.
The resolution declares that "the fundamental American principles of limited government and personal liberty are under direct assault" and that "when the current trends of government expansion and freedom retrenchment are reversed, it will be due in large part to the efforts of the hundreds of thousands who marched on Washington, D.C., on September 12, 2009."
