• Protect Democracy in Virginia!
    Governor Bob McDonnell is considering signing two new laws that will take the vote away from thousands of Virginians. These laws are about one thing: preventing people of color, seniors, immigrants, and young people from voting. Senate Bill 1 requires that Virginians show extra and unnecessary forms of identification at the polls. Seniors, low-income Virginians, young people, and immigrant voters are the least likely to meet the new excessive ID requirements. Voters without the right ID have to fill out a “provisional ballot.” House Bill 63 lets political party elites gather behind closed doors to determine which provisional ballots to count and which to throw out. We're calling on Governor McDonnell to veto these bills today and protect democracy for all Virginians.

  • NO Voter ID IN Minnesota Constitution
    Voter ID technologychanges as years go by-but putting Voter ID into the state consitutionhas the effectt of freezing technology into oneday oblostete systems. And as a consequence people have an unoffical poll tax, because of requirements (birthcerticficates andother things) that cost money, so that poorare excluded from voting right at the get go. Voting so be free fair and fundamental as a right in our democracy.

  • Voter suppression laws
    I am concerned that with about 37 states passing laws requiring Voter IDs coupled with other legislation relating to absentee voting, and early registration restrictions that it is a smoke screen to prevent citizens from exercising their constitutional right to VOTE. These laws will undoubtedly affect the rights of minorities, the elderly and students of age from voting. There is little evidence that "voter fraud" that these laws are alleged to prevent even exists. We would like the Justice department to investigate these voter suppression laws that they are.

  • First Amendment a Felony?
    Federal buildings and grounds improvements bill, HR 347. Is the "Anti Occupy Bill"! By the discretion of a federal agent any person on federal property or on grounds survailed by secret service, et al is subject to be deemed off limits to Any Peaceful Assembly or action of free speech. Basically, where or whenever "they" say so, you are in violation of federal law, a felony, for exercising your First Amendment Constitutional Right.

  • Stop super pacs!
    Super pacs are running elections now and their money is determining who is in office and running our country . The average American vote will not count anymore if this money keeps interfering and controlling us. People deserve to know who is behind Super Pacs, what's their agenda and how far are they willing to go and how much are they spending??

  • President Obama: Honor your presidential oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution--V...
    Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011, or H.R. 347, is a bill that seems to be designed to outlaw protests near government buildings and restrict the Constitutionally protected right of American citizens to petition the government for a redress of their grievances. This bill is in direct violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America. The First Amendment states in concise language that: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." As of March 1st, 2012, the bill has been passed to President Barack Obama to be signed into law or vetoed. According to the laws of the legislative process, the President has 10 days to sign or veto the bill. Please, President Obama, honor your Presidential Oath, protect the Constitution and veto this bill.

  • Clear Channel: Keep Rush Limbaugh and Freedom of Speech
    The left constantly attempts to assert their right to free speech; yet attempts to trample the rights of the conservatives across the nation. All speech is protected; no matter how distasteful some people may find it. Make it known to Clear Channel that the silent majority will no longer remain silent.

  • Nullify The NDAA
    When the National Defense Authorization Act was signed by Pres. Obama on Dec 31st not only did it lay out military spending but it also allowed for indefinite detention of Americans. (with out due process of law as laid out in our Constitution). Minnesota should stand up against this UN-consitutional attack and nullify sections 1021 and 1022 of the NDAA.
