About the Tea Party, Brooklyn, NY


The Brooklyn Tea Party was founded and organized by John Press, who served as the president and leader. John led the Brooklyn Tea Party from its inception until February 2011. The enthusiasm of the members, a full-spectrum of local residents, is what makes the Brooklyn Tea Party what it is. John helped to provide all of us members with the opportunity to participate fully and express ourselves. We share common goals of returning the Country to its roots and reigning in uncontrolled growth, power and size of Government. We acknowledge the many efforts John put in and thank him for the vital leadership role that he played.


February 2011, Joseph Hayon was appointed as president of the T.E.A party - Brooklyn, NY. Joseph ran for the Assembly in November 2010 against the (Liberal Democrat) Steven Cymbrowitz. Joseph played a vital role in organizing the BTP meetings and takes credit for most on-scene and behind-the-scene efforts.
