  • Tell the Supreme Court they are wrong about you, Corporate influence on the outcome of elections ...
    The Supreme Court has decided that since Corporate influence on the outcome of elections did not cause the electorate to lose faith in our democracy there was no legitimate reason to allow Congress to regulate it. The purpose of this petition is to demonstrate to the Court that their unsupported presumption is mistaken Corporate influence on elections does to cause the electorate to lose faith in our democracy. This will provide some future Court the evidence needed to reconsider this opinion.

  • California state bank
    The State of California should form a state-run bank for the purpose of providing the public with an option of a financial institution that is responsive to public interest and dedicated to protecting the public from predatory practices, exorbitant fees, and reckless speculation with the depositors' money. The state bank should adhere to the principles of Glass-Steagall Act, which should be de-repealed in California.

  • Corporations are not people money is not speech
    The Supreme court has defied precedent and allowed unlimited corporate money to influence elections. We have to make it clear that Iowa will not allow corporations (some foreign) to buy our elections.

  • Get Money Out of Electoral Politics
    Elections should be the exclusive domain of the citizens. Due to the Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United v FEC , "money is speech", the U.S. Congress does not have the authority to limit campaign spending by corporations and wealthy individuals. If money is speech, speech will be allocated according to wealth. This is wrong.

  • GATES FOUNDATION & MONSANTO: STAY OUT OF AFRICA
    Gates Foundation is partnering with Monsanto to bring a Green Revolution to Africa. This would hurt Africa, as it has hurt India (India's Green Revolution is 40 years old). In India the Green Revolution brought on farmers' suicides because it destroyed soil, wasted precious water, and indebted farmers and their families. Monsanto and Gates Foundation want to introduce GMO

  • Make Mortgage Lending & Homeownership Fair
    Mortgage lending is very bias towards the bank. You can pay on your home for years, fall on hard times and the bank has the right to foreclose and homeowners lose everything.

  • ALEC Accountability and Disclosure
    We demand public disclosure on the workings of American Legislative Exchange Council in the state of Oregon and that ALEC operate within the rules of lobbying organizations. Formed in 1973 as a "nonpartisan" group for "conservative state lawmakers" interested in "limited government, free markets, federalism, and individual liberty," ALEC creates model legislation that has resulted in the introduction of 1,000 bills a year at the state level with 20 percent becoming law, its website claims. ALEC finances trips for state lawmakers to learn about model legislation it pushes at the state level while connecting them to corporations from big tobacco, oil and for-profit prisons. We cannot allow our democratic process to be undermined by the secretive manipulations of corporations. Over the last several years ALEC has successfully promoted legislation to eliminate collective bargaining, require voter identification, and allow for school vouchers to be used. Wisconsin and Arizona are both engaged in a debate over collective bargaining legislation that is similar to model legislation that ALEC has been promoting. Law makers in Arizona and Wisconsin have introduced legislation requiring transparency on the workings of ALEC in their states. Arizona state. Rep. Steve Farley (D-Tucson) and Wisconsin state Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Madison) have separately put forward legislation designed to disclose ALEC's funding sources. The bills, called the Alec Accountability Act and pending in their respective Republican-controlled legislatures, would redefine ALEC as a lobbying organization since it develops model legislation. "It is a pretty big lobbying group," Farley told HuffPost. "People deserve to know who is funding ALEC," added Farley, who has collaborated with Pocan as well as discussed the issue with legislators in other states. Among the two bills' provisions would be an attempt to define any organization promoting model legislation as a lobbying group and require disclosure of its funding sources. Pocan described ALEC as a "dating service" matching model legislation with lawmakers in various states, according to a Center for Media and Democracy release.

  • Governor Haley: Stop lying about voter fraud
    Democratic legislators are becoming as rare as hen's teeth in the SC legislature. Governor Haley should be promoting issues that will improve the lives of SC residents and protect democracy. Instead, she serves her GOP corporate backers while the people of SC are cut out of the loop by this prevailing system of crony capitalism. Voter suppresion is an egregious method the GOP employs in it's agenda to serve their corporate masters, and it must be stopped.
