Breaking News:Grover Norquist will be giving out free hard cover copies of his book "Leave Us Alone" the first 250 people at the event!
Politics on the Rocks is honored to host Grover Norquist,
President of Americans for Tax Reform on Thursday, December 6th 6:00 PM
at The Mint located at 7373 E. Camelback Rd. Scottsdale, Arizona. With the
pending "fiscal cliff" this event comes at a very important time. This free
event is open to the public. Part restaurant, part ultra-lounge, The Mint
occupies a 7,000 square foot space that was previously a bank, giving
inspiration to the name. In a nod to its past, The Mint’s centerpiece is the
original vault door, while updated touches evoke a Hollywood Regency design
influence. For more information on The Mint, please visit their

Politics on the Rocks has partnered up with Scottsdale Healthcare’s unique Military
Partnership Program which offers hands-on
trauma care training to prepare military medical personnel to treat service men
and women injured in battle. A representative from the Scottsdale Healthcare
Foundation will be at the December 6th event to sell raffle tickets to raise
funds and awareness for this charity. The raffle prize is a Fender Telecaster
electric guitar signed by all members of the band "Train." Tickets are $10 for 1
ticket or $20 for 3 tickets. Odds are good because this raffle is only available
to members of Politics on the Rocks. Winner will be announced at 12/6
event.
Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) was founded by Grover
Norquist in 1985 at President Ronald Reagan’s request. ATR is a coalition of
taxpayer groups, individuals and businesses opposed to higher taxes at the
federal, state and local levels. ATR organizes the Taxpayer Protection Pledge,
which asks all candidates for federal and state office to commit themselves in
writing to oppose all tax increases. In the 112th Congress, 237 House members
and 41 Senators have taken the pledge. On the state level, 13 governors and 1249
state legislators have taken the pledge. In the words of Newt Gingrich, Grover
Norquist is “the person who I regard as the most innovative, creative,
courageous and entrepreneurial leader of the anti-tax efforts and of
conservative grassroots activism in America . He has truly made a difference and
truly changed American history.” Mr. Norquist holds a Masters of Business
Administration and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics, both from Harvard
University. He currently lives in Washington, DC. For more info on ATR check out
