West Chester 'Tea Party' group remains active

From a story by Dan Kristie in today's edition of The West Chester Daily Local News:
During the April 15 "Tax Day Tea Party" demonstration held outside the Historic Chester County Courthouse, Deborah Newman, one of the demonstration's organizers, called for the creation of a study group that would look at and educate the citizenry about the U.S. Constitution.

Three months later, that group has formed. They call themselves the West Chester Tea Party Constitution Study Group and have been meeting at the West Goshen Township Building.

Phil Duffy, the group's discussion leader, said that the study group is meant to be an exercise in learning rather than in partisanship.

"My goal is for people to learn the Constitution and encourage their friends to learn the Constitution," Duffy said. "That way we can hold the government to a faithful interpretation of it."
