Event Details

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is Confirmed to Speak.

Today, the voices of average Americans are being drowned out by lobbyists and special interests. The result: policies that are threatening to destroy the American Dream – higher taxes and out-of-control government spending, job-killing regulations, and endless red-tape. 

But you can do something about it. You can send a powerful message to the politicians, special interests, and the mainstream media by taking part in the Michigan Defending the American Dream Summit.

On May 1st in Michigan, you can join America’s foremost free-market voices, top experts on grassroots mobilization, and Michigan’s largest gathering of grassroots leaders from across the state in a massive show of force for our shared belief in lower taxes and more limited government.
