CCM of Northeastern PA plans convention events

Tanya Callaway Crews, President of the Northeastern Chapter, Coalition for a Conservative Majority announces that the CCM of NEPA will host two events during each of the party conventions. These will be “Scoring the Speakers” events where participants will anaylze and discuss the acceptance speeches by each of the major party candidates.

“Anyone who understands that smaller government, lower taxes, a strong national defense of America and America's borders, energy independence and adherence to the Constitution as written are critical to America's future is invited.” according to Ms. Callaway Crews. The Coalition for a Conservative Majority is a grassroots conservative advocacy group. The local chapter recently completed a trip to Washington to support conservative congress members as they continue to press for energy independence.

The first “Score the Speaker” will be held on Thursday, August 28 , beginning at 7 pm at Whistle’s Pub and Eatery, 126 Franklin Ave. in Scranton. The Democratic nominee’s speech that night will be analyzed from a conservative perspective. Refreshments will be served. The second ‘Score the Speaker” will be held on Thursday, September 4 at a location to be announced.

Northeast Pennsylvania Activists Create New
Conservative Grassroots Organization

Clarks Summit, PA - A new grassroots organization aimed at furthering conservative activism started in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre-area and is looking for like-minded members. The group, Coalition for a Conservative Majority - Northeast Pennsylvania, is the local chapter of the national organization founded by former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and Chaired by former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell.

As the first order of business, the CCM chapter has requested meetings with their area members of Congress, whether they're conservative, liberal, or anything in between. Chapter President Tanya Callaway Crews said earlier today the group will focus on monitoring federal and state policy to ensure conservative thought is represented. "It's time conservatives take a page out of the liberals' playbook and start holding our politicians accountable for the actions here and in Washington," Crews said. "CCM will be the primary organization that will hold their feet to the fire."

The National Chairman of CCM, former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell, said the Northeast Pennsylvania group is one of 8 targeted media markets with a burgeoning CCM chapter. "Across the country we are seeing candidates who run as Barry Goldwater, then govern more like Walter Mondale. CCM is here to keep their voting records in line with true conservative ideology."

During their recent monthly meeting, the organization elected a board and developed an organizational plan. The aim of the group, said Crews, is to unite the different factions of conservatives - security, social, and fiscal - into one organization that can work on a variety of fronts. "We don't care if you're here to fight illegal immigration or higher taxes - if you call yourself a conservative and you want to in the fight, you're welcome to join CCM."

CCM NEPA meets on a monthly basis and events are only open to registered members. For more information about CCM and how to become a member of the grassroots organization, please visit www.ccmajority.org.
