Overview
The Tea Party movement was a pivotal American right-wing, fiscally conservative political movement within the Republican Party that emerged in 2007, gained momentum with Congressman [[ron-paul|Ron Paul]]'s presidential campaign, and peaked in the 2010 wave election. The movement advocated for lower taxes, reduced national debt, and smaller government, opposing [[barack-obama|Barack Obama]]'s policies, including the [[affordable-care-act|Affordable Care Act]]. As a complex entity, the Tea Party movement has been characterized as both a genuine grassroots movement and an 'astroturf movement' influenced by external interests.
