Tea Party Victories in 2018




 The national Tea Party movement overall won many victories again this year, including:
  • 24 Tea Party-supported candidates were elected or re-elected to the U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, and governorships, including new Senators Mike Braun (IN), Marsha Blackburn (TN), and Josh Hawley (MO); new Representatives Dan Crenshaw (TX), Chip Roy (TX); and Governors Ron DeSantis (FL) and Brian Kemp (GA)
  • Tea Party-endorsed candidates were successful in Tennessee.  In addition to Marsha Blackburn: Bill Lee (Governor), Justin Lafferty and Martin Daniel (State Reps), and Tim Burchett (U.S. House of Representatives)
  • Tea Party-backed tax reform went into effect January 1, 2018
  • Tea Party-supported nominee Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the Supreme Court in October 2018
  • Helped stop the House DACA amnesty bill (June 2018 - this article in Politico shows that the immigration survey Tea Party Patriots Action helped craft played a decisive role in the defeat of the bill)
  • The U.S. withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal (May 2018 – Donald Trump spoke against the deal at a Tea Party Patriots rally in Washington in 2015)
  • President Trump has cut hundreds of job-killing regulations (May 2018)
  • Around Virginia
    • Tea Party-backed Tim Hannigan was elected Chairman of the pivotal Fairfax County Republican Committee in Virginia.  State election results often turn on mammoth Fairfax County and Tim ran on a platform of increasing GOP turnout.  (March 2018)
    • Mark Hiehl – active with Virginia Tea Party – got a bill passed requiring every government school district in Virginia to put its budget online (~March 2018)
