• Repeal Graham Leach Bliley Act and Re-instate Glass Steagall Act
    This is a petition to the Congress of The United States of America and the President of The United States of America to reinstate the act, Glass-Steagall, which was summarily repealed in 1999 by passage of the Graham Leach Bliley Act which allowed our financial industry to commingle financial institution depositor's funds with speculative investment funds endangering those funds,the well-being of those whose rightful property those funds belonged, and the basis of the national economy of the United States of America. Glass-Steagall calls for separation of Investment and Commercial Banking Institutions.

  • Wall Street Responsibility
    I believe that incredible damage was done to this country by the irresonsibility that was exhibited by Wall Street prior, during and after the crash of 2008 which nearly took down our entire country's economy. There has not been one person charged, not one grand jury convened and no justice for the many who have suffered the aftershocks of Wall Street Greed.

  • President Obama, allow the EPA to raise air quality standards.
    As a result of heavy industry lobbying, the Obama administration decided not to allow the EPA to strengthen air quality standards. Lobbyists claimed that higher air quality standards would hurt the economy. The administration agreed to retain the weaker Bush administration standards.

  • AT&T: Stop Giving Our Money to Rick Perry
    AT&T gave $462,739 to Rick Perry since 2000. Refuse to support Rick Perry's anti-choice, anti-GLBT & anti-environmental stances, to name but a few of the many issues progressive voters care about and Rick Perry fights against. Switch phone companies AND demand AT&T stop subsidizing radical politicians like Perry.

It is imperative that progressive Attorney Generals like George Jepsen raise their voices at this key time.

  • Corporations are NOT people
    The recent Supreme Court decisions culminating in Citizens United have given corporate interests unprecedented leverage in controlling the political arena. These corporate interests have corrupted the political process and threaten to turn the United States into an oligarchy. It's time for a Constitutional amendment to return the power of the people TO the people.

  • Tell Verizon "I want my service now"
    Forty-five thousand union workers were on strike for two weeks. During this time, hundreds of customers' telephone, computer, or TV service has been affected by outages or lack of manpower to provide new service. Now that the good union men and women are back to work, Verizon refuses to release this work and would rather have its employees standing around looking for something to do. We are here to provide the best service in the industry, and this highly trained union workforce is ready to service the customers every technical need. Demand your service from Verizon today.
