Paul Ryan's newest budget plan -- a rehash of the plan Americans resoundingly rejected last year, but with even deeper cuts -- protects the wealthy while demanding sacrifice from those who can least afford it. Ryan's plan privatizes Medicare. It slashes education, infrastructure and research funding. It makes it harder for poor Americans to afford health care by nearly cutting Medicaid in half by 2023. And it does all that while giving big tax breaks to the very wealthiest Americans and maintaining our unsustainable military budget. Congress must reject Paul Ryan's cruel budget and focus on helping the millions of Americans who are still struggling.

Instead of focusing on putting Missourians back to work, some extremist lawmakers want to make Missouri a so-called "right to work" state. "Right to work" laws have nothing to do with rights or work. They are simply political attacks aimed at weakening unions. So-called "right to work" states have higher poverty, higher rates of workplace injuries and fatalities, fewer people with health insurance, and lower wages for ALL workers. Tell your Missouri legislator to focus on jobs, not attacks.

Our elected representatives pass legislation that is supposed to reflect the needs and the good of the people. Instead, they continue to listen only to the moneyed. If their salaries were based on the minimum wage, they would have closer ties to the needs of those they speak for.

We should not have to pay taxes every year on a vehicle that is personally owned.This year I was charged more in taxes than My car is worth.Taxes should be determined by value not weight.Older cars should be exempt as their taxes paid have been overridden by the value of the vehicle.

The California minimum wage has not been raised for five years and currently stands at $8.00/hour. We have the lowest minimum wage among the west coast states, with Washington at $9.11/hour and Oregon at $8.95/hour. The cost-of-living in California's biggest cities is unsustainable on an $8.00/hour full time work load. It is time that we joined Oregon and Washington by attaching our minimum wage to inflation, adjusted at the beginning of every fiscal year, and set at $10.00/hour beginning this upcoming fiscal year.

Since Gov. Corbett took office he has cut funding for primary and secondary education by over a billion dollars. At the same time, He's allowed the give away of Commonwealth natural resources, worth billions, to oil and gas companies. We call for a tax for the extraction of these resources to the benefit the education of the children of the Commonwealth!
