Let's get Congress to focus on proactive legislation!!!!!

During the Clinton impeachment hearings, Robert Byrd referenced the constitution many times; one of Byrd's democratic colleagues spoke next and began his speech by stating (I'm paraphrasing) -- I'm not as well versed as my (esteemed?) colleague when it comes to the United States Constitution... I passed out from the impact of this massive dose of stupidity; when I was able to think again, I thought, why the __ aren't you as well versed as Robert Byrd when it comes to the constitution? How can you be a member of congress and not have a firm grasp on the fundamentals that are in place to guide lawmakers?

Focus on what is important, not politics. simple. See above

Amend the constitution ,limiting senators to two six year terms of office and congressmen to two three year terms. All their finances to be held in a blind trust and any profits derived from their positions are unlawful punishable by removal from office, penalty,fine and imprisonment.

By cutting funding for programs that prevent domestic violence and sexual assault by tens of millions of dollars this year, the arbitrary budget cuts known as “sequestration” are making it harder for vulnerable women to get the help they need. According to one senator’s projections, more than 70,000 domestic violence survivors will lose access to recovery programs and shelters that offer a lifeline to women in abusive situations. Tell Congress to fix the sequester by replacing these senseless cuts with a balanced approach to deficit reduction.

There would be no IRS scandal at all if there were no tax exempt (501-C4s) status. There is no reason to pretend these organizations are chartible groups in any way.

This is about the high salaries and benefits package received by our legislators and congress men/women. You should be concerned because it is your money that is funneled to them via taxes. It is time for them to not make any laws in which they do not follow. We get Obama care; they get the best health insurance. We are lucky IF we get a retirement package; they are assured a lifetime retirement (even if serving only one term). We get social security; they are exempt and have their own package. They vote themselves raises; have you had one recently?

Ask the IRS to revoke the tax exempt status from any group, conservative or liberal, who does not truly fit into the correct classification. The 501(c)(4) designation is actually intended for nonprofit group classified as "Civic Leagues, Social Welfare Organizations, and Local Associations of Employees." None of those terms apply to any group recently embroiled in the so-called IRS "scandal." 501(c)(4) organizations are generally civic leagues and other corporations operated exclusively for the promotion of "social welfare", such as civics and civics issues, or local associations of employees with membership limited to a designated company or people in a particular municipality or neighborhood, and with net earnings DEVOTED EXCLUSIVELY to charitable, educational, or recreational purposes. 501(c)(4) organizations may lobby for legislation, and unlike 501(c)(3) organizations they may also participate in political campaigns and elections, AS LONG AS ITS PRIMARY ACTIVITY IS THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL WELFARE. 501(c)(4) organizations are NOT REQUIRED to disclose their donors publicly. The lack of disclosure has led to extensive use of the 501(c)(4) provisions for organizations that are actively involved in lobbying, and has become controversial. Criticized as "dark money," spending from these organizations on political TV ads has exceeded spending from Super PACs.

This petition is about a extremely dangerous school zone(s) in Albuquerque. Many drivers these days don't care about their speed or their driving skills. It's become so dangerous I've alerted the local media. I've got several drivers on video not obeying school zone limits, and careless driving to the point of children almost being hit by vehicles. I'm asking for support to go to our leaders of our great city, and ask "why do we not protecting our kids in the one zone they should be safe?"

Legal Consumer's Beware. Utah needs to ban the use of Private Admonition and withholding critical information about the disciplinary record of an attorney you are about to hire. You have the right to make an informed choice. Utah disciplinary proceedings against attorneys take place behind closed doors, leaving you, the consumer to be a potential victim.

Issues such as education, gobabl climate change, jobs, corporations and money controlling our elections, and issues of public safety are being ignored while time is spent on grilling people on Benghazi, IRS scandal, as well as anything else that they can focus on as opposed to focusing on government for the people. I am concerned for future of my children and their children,

Proportional electoral representation would give the American electorate that political power which special interests have monopolized. Our current winner take all, gerrymandered, and bought form of electoral representation unjustly concentrates both political and economic power in a few individuals and entities.
