Media Relations Executive and Convention Spokesperson, Mark A. Skoda commented, "Coming into this role is exciting. We had a great conference in Nashville and I really enjoyed working with Judson and his team. Of course, we were so grateful for the interest of the press and media. While I recognize that the 'second time around' might be different, we have some great new ideas for the convention while at the same time providing an extraordinarily press and media friendly environment. Of course, holding the convention in one of the greatest convention cities in the world will certainly help pique the interest of delegates and the media! I look forward to renewing contacts and establishing new relationships as we begin to roll out our communications strategy."

Filmmaker Stephen K, Bannon who premiered "Generation Zero" at the Nashville Convention said "Judson and Sherry Phillips and Tea Party Nation have provided the most important and vital platform for the Tea Party movement to get its message of national renewal out on a global basis. The National Convention was an unqualified success and the movement looks forward to the Unity Convention in Las Vegas bringing all the disparate elements of the Tea Party together. Mark Skoda was a key element of the success in Nashville in managing all the complexity of a modern media . I am very happy that Mark is involved in the Unity Convention."

The Tea Party Unity Convention will be held July 15-17 at The Palazzo Las Vegas Resort and Convention Center in Las Vegas Nevada. The purpose of the convention is to be a unifying event for the Tea Party movement in the run up to the fall congressional elections.
