High-Profile Speakers Invited to Lead Historic Dialogue

We are pleased to open formal registration for “Give Me Liberty 2004”, the first annual conference sponsored by the WTP organization. The three-day conference will be held January 22-24 in Arlington, Virginia, just outside Washington, DC. 

The central theme of the conference is “The Right to Petition: Re-discovering the ‘capstone’ Right and using it to reclaim our Freedom and restore Constitutional Order.”  The primary conference structure will feature six,
2-3 hour panel discussions covering the history, nature and contemporary application of the long-forgotten Right to Petition for Redress of Grievances.  

Please see the main GML 2004 conference information page to register, and to access the preliminary agenda and other conference/hotel information.  You can register either on-line or by mail. 

The opening conference panel will be an overview of the history, evolution and power of the Right to Petition and the class-action lawsuit being brought to enforce this recently “re-discovered” unalienable Right.  

The subsequent panels cover the subject matters of the formal WTP Petitions for Redress, including the Iraq Resolution, the Federal Reserve, the USA Patriot Act and the federal income tax. The final panel on Saturday investigates the role of the media in relationship to the Petitioning process and addresses a spectrum of constitutional abuses that could exercise the Right to Petition to secure remedies. 

The preliminary agenda includes a number of nationally renowned public figures that have been invited to lead the conference including: Judge Roy Moore (former Alabama Supreme Court Justice), syndicated columnist
Dr. Walter Williams, former Presidential candidate Dr. Alan Keyes, Joseph Farah (publisher, WorldNetDaily.com), national columnists Joseph Sobran and Charlie Reece, Jacob Hornberger (founder, The Future of Freedom Foundation) and author G. Edward Griffin (Creature From Jekyll Island). 

Other nationally notable individuals including attorneys, law professors, authors and several individuals representing opposing viewpoints are also slated to bring voice to the proceeding’s historic dialogue. Among those invited are Washington attorney Mark Lane (lead counsel for the WTP Right to Petition lawsuit), author and activist Catherine Austin Fitts, Rep. Ron Paul (TX), Rep. Henry Hyde (IL) and subject matter experts & advocates such as former IRS Agents Joe Banister (CID Special Agent and CPA), Sherry Jackson (CPA, Certified Fraud Examiner) and John Turner (former Revenue Officer).

Hutton Gibson, the conservative father of world-renowned actor, director and producer Mel Gibson, will address the convention.  Discussions have been initiated with Mel Gibson to speak at the convention along with his father.  Potential schedule additions and details will be posted as they become available.
