• Make them in the U.S.A!!
    Pressure the Congress to enact a bill to require all blue jeans to be made in the U.S.A. Everyone complains about outsourced goods and jobs going overseas. This is a symbolic gesture to bring back a small portion of our goods that CAN BE COMPETITIVELY MADE IN THE U.S.A. 80% of the products in the big box stores are imported - let's bring an American icon home!

  • Senate Democrats: Don't touch the Medicare eligibility age.
    Rumors are swirling in D.C. that Republicans might be willing to include higher tax rates for the wealthy in a deficit deal if Democrats agree to dangerous benefit cuts like raising the Medicare eligibility age from 65 to 67. Raising the eligibility age is very bad policy. The problem here isn't with the benefits Americans have earned -- it's a cost-of-healthcare problem. Medicare is lower-cost than private insurance, and squeezing the youngest Medicare recipients into private insurance will only make costs worse. We need to control health care costs, not limit access. We can't let the wealthy corporate interests that are spending furiously to push for this succeed.

  • Tell Rep. Pitts to End the Bush Tax Cuts for the Richest 2%
    End the Bush Tax Cuts for the Richest 2% Allowing taxes to go up an average of $2,200 per family of four would pose an additional hardship on middle-class families who have already suffered through the Great Recession and its aftermath. The fairest way to address the current fiscal situation, to promote economic growth and to protect middle-class families is to extend tax cuts for the middle class and allow cuts for the wealthiest two percent to expire. Please support a deal that allows the Bush-era tax cuts to expire for the wealthiest 2% and extends tax cuts for those earning under $250,000.

  • Market place competition enhancement act
    The Federal minimum wage should be adjusted for each company according to the size of their revenue stream. As corporations grow in size, they become virtually impossible for smaller business to compete against, mostly due to their vastly lower overhead and the efficiency of their acquisition pipelines. To IMPROVE competition in almost every industry, companies should be required to pay HIGHER minimum wages based on the size of its revenues, with very large companies being required to pay as much as 50% higher wages than businesses with fewer than 10 employees.
