I believe our government should be independent of corporate interest. In order to have our Representatives truly represent the Maryland people, they cannot be taking money from fossil fuel companies.

I'm a local Virginia resident who is concerned about the amount of fossil fuel money in Virginia politics. I believe we should be skeptical of off-shore drilling in the Atlantic, and in order to have our Representatives truly represent the Virginian people, they cannot be taking money from fossil fuel companies.

This issue should concern all Americans. Getting moneyed interests out of our election process is the only way that we will ever be able to have fair elections. When elections are bought, it hurts everyone except those who bought them and those who sold them. We must fight back.

Emergency Management is an unjust law in Michigan. In 2012 Michigan voters rejected Public Act 4 (Michigan Proposal 1) by a percentage of 53% No votes and 47% Yes votes. A few months later the Michigan Republican House and Senate passed a new law, Public Act 436 in its place. My city , Pontiac, MI has been stripped of its assets: Fire, Water, Police, Department of Public Works and Lighting. Currently the city retirees pensions are being targeted. This law should be abolished. This is the same law that brought the water crisis to Flint, Michigan.

The American people have already bailed out Wall Street once, the last thing we need is a President who is unwilling or unable to stand up to the powerful financial industry. THEREFORE, in the interests of transparency and accountability, we call on Hillary Clinton to immediately release the full transcripts of her paid speeches to Wall Street banks from 2013 to 2015. Until she does so, the American people simply cannot trust her word alone that she will get tough with very Banks that have paid her so much money. --------- LETTER TO Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton You have pledged to take on the Wall Street Banks who wrecked our economy, and yet you've taken huge speaking fees from the very same institutions. Please prove to the American people that you tell the bankers the same thing you say on a debate stage: immediately release the transcripts of your paid speeches to Wall Street.

It's the biggest threat to democracy that nobody is talking about. The same Big Money forces buying our elections are trying to rewrite our Constitution -- and they’ve almost succeeded. They're working with groups like ALEC (the corporate lobby disguised as a charity) to ram a so-called "constitutional convention" through state legislatures. Exploiting obscure provisions of Article V of our Constitution, they'd grant delegates unprecedented and unlimited power with zero checks or balances. In other words: political ideologues could enact their entire agenda without voter input -- costing the rest of us our fundamental rights and liberties. This ALEC-led campaign has already succeeded in 27 of the 34 states they need. And, they’ve got the money and organization to go over the top this year. That means we'll be fighting back in states like South Carolina, Wisconsin, Virginia, and more -- and we want you on our side. We can’t afford to stand by and watch Big Money shred our Constitution. Take our pledge so we’ll be ready to fight back.

To serve democracy and stop the betrayal of public trust by revealing abuses of power, corruption and secret campaign contributors.

We do not think you understand how committed we Bernie Sanders supporters are! There will be zero chance of getting our vote the next time you are up for election in New York if you do not endorse Bernie Sanders for President in the Primary as a superdelegate of the DNC. It appears that you are more interested in gaining favors with Clinton than delving into the myriad of potential crises that face our nation and the world. We have had but a taste of what climate change holds in store for us this year with record shattering temperatures, droughts, floods and extreme weather events that have become the norm. The economy is poised for a complete downturn that we can only hope is as bad as the 2008 catastrophe. We are only going to waste our time telling you where Sanders and Clinton stand on one issue, because the facts are clear; Sanders is the only President who can lead the charge against the enormous difficulties that we face. We have seen flowering bushes in New York that have started budding in the middle of winter. This foreshadows massive plant, tree and crop failures which indicate that the stakes are complete and utter human extinction. And you are really considering a Clinton endorsement when she has been indecisive on Keystone XL, one of the most recognized recent environmental victories? You probably know that Sanders was against dredging up the most evil of oils in the tar sands of Canada from day one. Sanders stood against TransCanada and the free trade deals that Clinton supported, which have opened the doors wide for multinational corporations to sue against our civil liberties. Clinton now says she is against KXL and TPP, but we have seen little evidence that this would hold true if elected. We know where Sanders stood, stands and will continue to stand. We pledge a non-vote for you no matter what, if you do not endorse Bernie Sanders. We will seek out and encourage opponents in your upcoming races, throwing our full support behind them. If you are not with us, you are against us in these desperate times. By now, you are probably hearing exactly how dedicated us Bernie Sanders volunteers and supporters are! We see that there is truly no positive outcome for our nation without swift and responsible measures, of which, Sanders has been saying and acting upon without waver for the past thirty years in office. As you may know, Sanders is the only Democratic candidate, born and raised in New York State, that countless polls claim is poised to wipe the floor with the current Republican Presidential frontrunners. It is not too late to claim our Democracy from the insidious donor class, which fills the coffers of campaigns, such as yours, by waging war upon those of the lower classes. Slowly but surely accumulating more wealth as representatives like you claim, “it is for the greater good”. We know it is really for the good of your career. The lower class is growing, as agreements that are supposedly “free trade” deals and weak bank regulations espoused by Clinton destroy the middle class. If you have studied history than you know what happens when there is great income disparity and high hopes or expectations for better conditions. It is an outrage that a Democratic candidate for President is shunned by an establishment sympathizer such as yourself. He is the first candidate in many of our lifetimes who is actually embracing truly Democratic principles and succeeding on a national level, while not accepting Super PAC contributions and those clearly corrosive corporate monies. Imagine our power if elected representatives and officials actually stood up for what they must know is morally right. Sanders is representing, in every way, the majority of American people on every single issue, can you say the same? Claim the endorsement that you know you want. Listen to that part of your conscience that actually cares about people other than yourself or watch as us Bernie or Bust true Democrats vote for anyone but you in upcoming elections.

We the people demand that Hillary R Clinton, presidential candidate in 2016 release all transcripts of her paid speeches to any and all Wall street connected firms and all banks to include Goldman Sachs, Citibank, etc

New York City's prominence among progressive circles makes it self-evident that it host one of the additional debates. As this election is, to a large degree, about determining the direction of the Democratic Party, it is imperative that New York City's voices are heard and questions answered before a nationally televised audience.

Getting the State of Nevada to look into potential wrong-doing with the Clinton Campaign, for violating Nev. Rev. Stat. §293.505(10) - which states: However, persons assisting voters in completing the application to register to vote by mail must not solicit a vote for or against a particular question or candidate; speak to a voter on the subject of marking his or her ballot for or against a particular question or candidate; or distribute any petition or other material concerning a candidate or question which will be on the ballot for the ensuing election, while registering an elector.

Hillary laughed when journalist Lee Fang asked her to release the text of her speeches. Corruption is no laughing matter.
