From a Tea Party Express press release:

NATIONAL TEA PARTY EXPRESS BUS TOUR ROLLS THROUGH NEBRASKA TODAY!

Rallies Today in Lincoln and Omaha

Tea Party Express, www.TeaPartyExpress.org, considered one of the most aggressive and influential tea party groups, is crossing through Nebraska today on a 30-city tour themed "Reclaiming America," and will be calling for the defeat of Democrat Senator Ben Nelson.

Earlier this year, the Tea Party Express announced Senator Nelson as top target for defeat, citing a lengthy history of voting for wasteful government programs and spending, such as President Obama's unconstitutional health care program. The group has developed a reputation for playing a major role in defeating liberal politicians, and putting significant resources behind their conservative challengers.

In May, the Tea Party Express endorsed Attorney General Jon Bruning for Senate. Bruning is expected to attend and speak at both tea party rallies today.

Rallies Today, August 30th:

Lincoln: 12:30pm-2pm
Nebraska State Capitol
1445 K St.

Omaha: 4:30pm-6pm
Elmwood Park
6700 Elmwood Park

As the tour crosses the country, presidential candidates will attend to address the tea party audience. The grand finale is the CNN/Tea Party Express Presidential Debate in Tampa, FL on September 12th. The full "Reclaiming America" tour schedule is available online at: http://www.teapartyexpress.org/tour-schedule.
