Teaparty Republicans
Region:
United States of America

This is exactly what Republicans are guilty of. In their obsession to kill President Obama’s signature health care law, a group of House Republicans held America hostage in a last ditch effort to achieve their goal.

At the urging of Senator Ted Cruz, House Tea Party members initiated a shutdown that has cost the country billions of dollars over the last two weeks. The shutdown caused a layoff of 800,000 federal employees, resulting in harm to military veterans, children, women, the poor, education, and businesses.

It did terrible damage to the nation as a whole and hurt our reputation around the world.Tea Party Republicans could be charged with sedition under US law for holding America hostage.

According to the US Code (18 U.S.C. § 2384 ), seditious conspiracy is a crime under United States law. The law states in part that Tea Party Republicans could be charged with sedition under US law for holding America hostage.

We, the undersigned, call for charges against the Tea Party Republicans for sedition under US law for holding America hostage.
