• Return our return
    My tax return was affected by the mistake a tax company made with the form 8863. I filed my return January 28, 2013. It is now May 2 and I still have not received it. There should be no furlough until all the affected tax returns are filed.

  • Maryland Governor Passes Unconstitutional "Rain Tax"
    To petition against Maryland State Government and Governor O’Malley’s decision to impose Maryland property owners with a rain tax on our next property tax bills effective July1, 2013. There has been no transparency in the state's decision process or voter approval of the rain tax. Furthermore, these officials have exempted government-owned properties from the rain tax and enforced it on churches and nonprofits.

  • Make Online Retailers like Amazon charge Sales Tax
    Corporations like Amazon aren't required to pay sales tax while Main Street [Mom and Pop] retailers still do. As usual, the big boys get to play by different rules; and the little people lose on this uneven playing field. We need this sales tax revenue in our states, counties and cities!

  • Living Wage
    My petition is for a living wage. The current minimum wage of $7.25 nationally is not enough for people to live on. San Francisco made their wage $10.25. Even though that is good, many say that is even low since the price of housing is tremendous there. I have two jobs that pay $9.25 and $9.77 respectively and am barely making it myself. Also, each person in this country should at least receive enough money and resources to stay in a home, buy food and pay utilities. Although there are services in place, quite often it is not enough.

  • The President, Senators and Congressmen and Women Should be Paid the Minimum Wage.
    Seniors like me and my Wife have to live on tiny amounts of money. Our leaders have lost touch with many millions of low income and fixed low income Americans. The tiny salary checks they would get would be a reminder of what we have to live on.
