The Virginia Tea Party (VTP) is a politically non-partisan statewide tea party organization comprised of local affiliated groups established to advance and strengthen the Founding principles and God-given rights predicated in the U.S. and Virginia Constitutions. Our mission is to encourage and facilitate citizen participation in the political process and to empower all citizens with a voice and influence in demanding Constitutional governance. VTP will help local, independent tea party/patriot groups grow in numbers and influence and nurture communication and collaboration among Virginia tea party and patriot groups.
