Property Tax ReformWHile incomes in Oregon are going down, and many are out of work, and retirees are having less money to live on...property taxes are going up. We need to rectify this situation. I do not think government should be increasing revenue in the form of propert tax increases, when the rest of us are suffering. I built my home in 2004. It has taken all I can muster to pay the payment. The property taxes have increased over 24% since I built . The economy has not increased by 24% since 2004. Where is the fairness?6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Avette Gaiser

Income tax, Not Sales TaxOne bill being proposed by a N.C. Senate leader is to replace the state income tax with a sales tax. This would proportionately hurt poor and middle-class people, who spend practically every dime they make every month, and it would give a huge break to rich people, who are the only ones who can afford to sock away a substantial portion of their income every month. And seniors living off their savings and social security, who have already paid all their taxes over their lifetimes, would be taxed, yet again, on those monies. Vote no on this proposal.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mary Rosenbluth

Tax Employer Provided Health BenefitsA small percentage of the California population receive free or subsidized health benefits as part of their employment compensation. Currently, this portion of pay is tax free. Citizens that purchase their own health benefits must do so AFTER having paid taxes on their income. This petition proposes that compensation in the form of health benefits be taxed.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mark Miller

PERS Saving GraceAll PERS jobs with salaries at $250,000 and over should not be part of this pension system. If the taxpayers are paying you that can of income, you can surely save for your own retirement and help save PERS for the underpaid employees, such as police, firefighters and teachers.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Teresa Mitchell

Support the Governor's BudgetThe Governor has proposed a budget that would increase the income tax by 1%, and decrease the sales tax by 1.75%. It would also increase the tax on cigarettes by $1 per pack, remove the sales tax exemption for soda and junk food, and add to the gas tax. The net result would be an expanded budget to improve transportation and education in the state, and a tax burden that is far more progressive than the high sales tax we currently have. A lower sales tax would also help businesses that border New Hampshire, which has no sales tax.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jeffrey Carter Gilson

Comprehensive Job Program to Get America Back Working AaginI am a 42-year-old female who has not had a job that pays a living wage in almost six years. I have a Bachelor's degree and fifteen years of administrative/clerical experience but I cannot find a job. Every day I sit at home out of work makes me feel very low and my skills are slowly ebbing away. There are many individuals like myself who through no fault of their own, find themselves considered used goods in the working world. We want to work, need to work and demand the right to work. We need more job training programs to help displaced workers like myself and others to make us more marketable in the job field.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kathy Henry
