• Tell Your Senators to Let the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Do Its Job and Confirm Rich Co...
    Elizabeth Warren: "Never before in American history has a minority in the Senate blocked a nominee to try to get changes in a law they don't like and don't have the votes to change.” She's talking about the 43 Senators who have threatened to block Rich Cordray's re-nomination as director. They don’t question his qualifications; their grievance is with the CFPB itself. "Blocking Rich Cordray is about weakening the agency,” says Warren. It's "about keeping the game rigged" so "consumers remain in the dark -- and a few bad actors can rake in big profits.”

  • Stop Military Benefit Cuts
    If we "Support Our Troops", then we should not cut any of their benefits. They risk their lives for us for meager salaries. Their tuition benefit is a means for them to prepare themselves for life outside of the military. Stop the cuts.

  • state admendements to remove benefits and adjust wages for senate and the house
    I believe as individual states we should vote in amendments to lower wages of our representatives house or senate ,and remove all benefits. Also introduce term limits to 2 or 4 years maximum overriding their power to raise their wages this will cut down on special interest groups and corporate interference and assist in refocusing our government on the real needs of the people and not party lines

  • Massachusetts Legislature: Lead the nation in open government
    Our state recently received a failing grade for legislative transparency on the web. In addition, our public records law is broken. Journalists, concerned citizens, and others with a need – and right – to know how our government is working often can’t get the information they need. That’s just unacceptable, especially in a state like ours. This petition calls on the Legislature to make much needed changes so that Massachusetts leads rather than lags behind the nation in having accessible, searchable, and usable information about our government online.

  • Binding Referenda on National Ballots
    Certain motivations of lawmaking, have moved well away from the benefit of the country and populous to the great benefit of lobbyists, large corporations and of the lawmakers themselves. The country suffers and starves, while our lawmakers (both Republicans and Democrats) say,"Let them eat cake." The banks, large and multinational corporations, who constantly whine for less taxes and governmental control (free market capitalism), then want to be "bailed out," whenever they get caught by their own bad policies. This is just a few reasons to start taking a direct control of "our employees" in Washington DC.

  • Petition to Establish The Independent Republic of California
    California is the most populous state in the Union and has one of the largest economies in the world. The state is politically different from the rest of the Unites States (the Union), and has an increasingly more heterogeneous population. The State pays more money into the national treasury than is returned and therefore subsidizes states whose political philosophy holds back social and economic progress in our State. California would do better for its citizens as an independent republic
