Please stand with the families of the 2005 BP Texas City explosion in which 15 people lost their lives and over 170 were injured. British Petroleum has brought death, injury, suffering and destruction to the homes of American families!

The Coffee Party USA seeks to give a voice to those citizens who want to see our government actually work for the people being governed.
We recognize that the federal government is not the enemy of the people, but is, instead, the expression of our collective wills, and that we must participate in the democratic process in order to address the challenges that we face as Americans.
As voters and grassroots volunteers who have not been endorsed by any politician or political party, we will support leaders who work toward positive solutions, and hold accountable those who obstruct them.
