• Drug Sentencing
    My nephew alone with other young black men have had their lives stop for long periords of time for the amount of time the court is giving young men for any type of drug they have, not use, have. The three strike law should go away. Prison has become a big business to take young men away from family, friends and life.

  • Democrats prove yourself.... change our economy
    We need an economy that works for our world and will sustain ourselves and future generations for centuries to come. We cannot depend on huge global corporations to work in the best interest of our planet when the goal is to make more and more money. We need to find a new way, where people earn fair wages doing work that helps themselves, their families, their communities and moves us forward to making the world a better place for all.

  • Save Social Security and Medicare
    These are not entitlements/gifts. We have paid for these each working year of our lives. Many of us don't have pensions that come with health care, or even pensions. Our employees dumped pensions long ago. How else will we survive without these paid for benefits? It will be a feat to even retain employment until 65/66/67 with age discrimination. Many of us could work until 70 or later, but what are the odds we would have our employment continued, or could find a job after 50? Please take up our cause.

  • Just Say "No" to Republican's Fiscal Cliff
    President Obama and Congress should stand strong against the Republican created "Fiscal Cliff". Tell them to "Just Say No" to the out of touch Republicans in Congress that are holding America hostage to preserve tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% on the backs of seniors, the disabled and the poor.

  • Defeat Mitch McConnell in 2014
    Mitch McConnell vowed in 2008 to make Barack Obama a one term president. Since then he has fought against the President in every effort to find compromise for our most pressing issues. He is getting paid, AND getting free health care while doing nothing to advance the needs of the American people. We don't need him in Congress.

  • Citizen Economic Distribution and Recovery Initiative
    Here's an idea. Take the median net worth loss percentage for those in the lower 90%. Now hold that number in your head. We're the United States of America. We help our neighbors when they're in trouble, right? I thought you'd agree. We all believe in shared sacrifice, right? Yeah, I thought you'd agree there too. The economy belongs to all of us, right? We're reading the same book, now. We know that banks got bailed out by the common taxpayer, as did Wall Street, the auto industry, and others. We also know that Main Street needs a hand. And that's not just individuals and households. That includes small businesses. Now we're on the same page. We have a simple, equitable, All-American wealth distribution proposal that offers more immediate relief for the common citizen, revitalizes the economy, and puts the country's best interests first.
