Americans for Prosperity’s Hot Air Balloon Tour to Stop in Arkansas to Expose Hidden Energy Tax Hike in “Cap-and-Trade” Legislation, June 3rd in Little Rock and June 4th in Fayetteville [Event Locations Below] Free rides in AFP’s 70 foot hot air balloon will be provided to the public!

The free-market grassroots group Americans for Prosperity (AFP) is taking its nationwide Hot Air Balloon Tour to Arkansas on June 3rd and June 4th to expose the extreme economic costs of cap-and trade-legislation to the American taxpayer. “This cap and trade scheme is nothing more than a tax on energy- plain and simple,” said AFP President Tim Phillips. “We think American families need to know what these proposals will cost them – lost jobs, even higher energy prices, and less freedom.”

AFP’s Hot Air Tour has the goal of building grassroots pressure against costly state, local, and federal climate change policies. AFP has pledged to mobilize citizens in order to fight off any attempts to pass a cap-and-trade regulatory scheme. Attendees will have the chance to ride in AFP’s hot air balloon and listen to Americans for Prosperity President Tim Phillips speak on the economic dangers of cap-and-trade legislation.

The event is free and open to the public. Food will be served.

Wednesday, June 3rd, 6:00pm
MacArthur Park,
Little Rock, AR

Thursday, June 4th , 9:00am
Agri-Park Pavilion, 1767 Knapp Street,
Fayetteville, AR
