• Police Accountability and Civilian Tutelage (PACT) Act
    The power and size of the police forces in the United States is growing at an alarming rate while officers of the law, who are sworn to uphold our constitution, are committing brutal, and sometimes lethal acts of violence for little or no reason at all. Police departments have started to undergo training for "riot control" and to respond to potential "terrorist threats" while their definition of terrorists grows to include Ron Paul supporters, people who pay with cash, protestors, and people who buy more than a week's worth of groceries at a time. Police have been breaking up peaceful protests and arresting innocent civilians, unconstitutionally, just to shut them up.

  • AG Eric Holder: Lead a full crackdown on voter suppression measures
    The alleged epidemic of "voter fraud" has been completely disproved, as even admitted by some Republicans. Thus, this is clearly a coordinated, systematic GOP program (courtesy of ALEC) to eliminate several million mostly Democratic votes. The GOP hopes to steal a victory–and more power. They fear they won't win in an honest election process. Surely, this is the largest and worst attack on voting rights and fair elections in our history.

  • Registering Disenfranchised Voters
    My petition is about getting disenfranchised voters registered by creating mobile registration vehicles (van or panel truck) to go into the areas where there are the most people who haven't been able to go, for numerous reasons. I would see this registration as independent of either political party (although they would be able to register as D or R or L, same as now.

  • Preservation of the Constitional Rights of Free Citizens
    The founding fathers of our great nation thought highly enough of free citizens being armed that it is 2nd only to the right of free speech in the Bill of Rights. All other civil liberties are less secure without it.

  • Stop Voter Suppression
    Throughout the United States, in states key to the upcoming presidential election such as: Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Texas, Iowa and Pennsylvania. Republican held state governments are enacting laws which require never before needed and costly voter identification cards, limit access to the polls in areas known to already be restricted and target low-income, elderly and minority voters. A fair election wherein all citizens can perform their civic duty and vote is central to a free democracy. Most of these restrictive laws have been enacted within the last few days or months giving the electorate little time to respond and determine if they are still eligible to vote.

  • Early voting should be the same in all districts in Ohio.
    Voters in Republican districts will generally have broader access to early voting than voters in Democratic districts in Ohio. Ohio's Secretary of State, Jon Husted, claims Ohio is "not 7-Eleven and can't stay open 24-7 and let anybody vote by any rule…we have standards" (Laura Ingrham radio show...as quoted on The Rachel Maddow Show 8/10.) This is a sad day for democracy in Ohio. All voters in all districts should have equal access to early voting.
