Ed DeMarco - don't drive Ramón and his family out of their home!My name is Ramón S. In 2005, my wife Rosana and I purchased our home to raise our three beautiful children. We love our home, and our neighborhood and we want to stay here. Sadly, we’re being forced out of our home and onto the streets because of one man--Ed DeMarco. On Tuesday March 19th, Acting Federal Housing Finance Agency Ed DeMarco is testifying before Congress. Will you help me send him a message on Tuesday that he can’t take my family’s home? For years, we faithfully made our monthly payments until we ran into some bad luck. I lost my job and Rosana had to take a leave of absence to care for her mom who was very ill. By the time we both were able to get back to work, we were behind on our monthly mortgage payments. In his position, DeMarco is the boss of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. And no matter how much we tried to negotiate, Freddie Mac refused to any modification of our loan because of Ed DeMarco’s irrational and destructive opposition to principal reduction. Since then, we’ve saved the money to buy back our home with the support of a local non-profit, but Freddie Mac still won’t take our offer. Ed DeMarco is hurting my family and millions of other families and dragging down our country's economic progress. We worked hard to buy this home, and we love our community. Our children deserve better than what Ed DeMarco is doing to them. On Tuesday, we can send the message to Ed DeMarco that he needs to do what's right. Can you join me and tell Ed DeMarco that he can't take my home? We want to be able to pay our mortgage every month and remain in the home and community we love.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tracy Van Slyke

Fire Attorney General Eric HolderEric Holder has been totally ineffective in bringing the " Banksters " to justice. He has also failed to to do anything about the admitted war criminals in the previous administration. He has shown time and time again that he is afraid of big companies and corporations. We need someone with guts to take on the nation's major criminals.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Schmidt

End GerrymanderingThe practice of gerrymandering has been used by both parties in Statehouses throughout the country to effectively disenfranchise voters and tip the balance in favor of the party controlling the state legislature at the time. This has led to more and more extreme candidates getting elected, as they play to the fringes of their own party, rather than to the center of the electorate, resulting in the current congress, mired in fillibusters and inaction.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alex Corcoran

Legalize Hemp and MarijuanaSurely no member of the vegetable kingdom has ever been more misunderstood than hemp. For too many years, emotion-not reason-has guided our policy toward this crop. And nowhere have emotions run hotter than in the debate over the distinction between industrial hemp and marijuana. This paper is intended to inform that debate by offering scientific evidence, so that farmers, policymakers, manufacturers, and the general public can distinguish between myth and reality. http://www.naihc.org/hemp_information/content/hemp.mj.html4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pat L
