The launch of AFP-LA was held on the 12th of July.  The press conference (see photos below) announced the beginning of American's for Prosperity's grassroots campaign that will educate citizens across the state and mobilize them to push legislators to restore the state's spending limits and provide to taxpayers transparency in spending- especially for the legislator's pork projects.  Oink! Oink!
