Americans for Prosperity has just launched a $2.4 million media campaign in Florida, Michigan, New Mexico and Virginia. The campaign is focusing on the $535 million in taxpayer money given to Solyndra, the now bankrupt solar panel company with ties to the administration.
For more information about Solyndra and AFP's effort to educate citizens about this serious abuse of taxpayer dollars, go here.
Also, be sure to read the news breaking CNN story detailing the campaign.
If you agree with us that taxpayer dollars need to be protected, sign our petition!

Last week I posted here on the AFP blog about EPA's admission that it would need 230,000 additional bureaucrats at an annual cost of $21 billion to process permits related to its greenhouse gas regulations.
After the Daily Caller reported on the same story, it gained so much attention that EPA went into damage-control mode. Politico ran a piece today trying to spin away the shocking story.
But the story is valid.
The regulation at issue is called the Tailoring Rule, which is EPA's unlawful attempt to act as a super-legislature, rewriting the permitting threshold to shoehorn greenhouse gases into the Clean Air Act. But the law says what it says.
