I am the American public. It took 20 years of military service before I was allowed to retire. Why can members of congress do so after 2 years?

Newly elected State of Utah Attorney General John Swallow is embroiled in a very controversial and damaging allegations about his involvement and relationship with Jeremy Johnson's unethical business practices and lobby of and influencing elected officials by financial payouts.

A State Constitutional Amendment to reinstate in full measure the Local Government Fund which has been decimated by Governor Kasich and Republican State Legislators. The decimation of the LGF has forced the vast majority (nearly all) local government entities of ALL types (not just cities, suburbs, towns, etc., but school districts, senior citizen programs, mental health assistance districts, etc.) to take local income tax increases and/or property tax increases to significantly higher levels - just in order to provide basic levels of service - or (especially if tax increase requests have repeatedly failed) to be forced to reduce service levels BELOW that of a basic reasonable level.

Recent changes to Corrections and Community Services has placed an enormous burden on Corrections and Parole employees. By merging employee workload, responsibilities and dutiful employee legal responsibility of Parole Officers has caused the "new" Services Dept. to disintegrate and cause Parole Board preparation chaos. NYS employees inside the Prisons in NYS must be compensated for their working conditions, leadership and expertise in the field of "Corrections and Parole"! Tell the Gov. it is not a "suitable plan" or budget strategy!

2 terms for all elected politicians local /state/federal.

Currently, all of Michigan's electoral college votes for president are given to one candidate, no matter how slim the margin of popular votes by which that candidate won in Michigan. This in effect ignores the votes of all those who voted for the other candidate, and actually changes their votes to the candidate they did not vote for.

Take big money out of elections; require spending limits; overturn the Citizens United decision with a public funding law for national elections with accountability.

All digital accounting post - ledges, journals, spread sheets used respectively by all city and county governments agencies, authorities must make their income and expenses available 24/7 on their websites. We know that 100% of all taxpayers want to know real time how their money is spent. We also know that any elected or appointed official that refuses to cooperate will end their career and be ask to step down then or in the next election.

It has become obvious that congress has no accountability to the people of these United States of America. I suggest We The People call hearings where We The People as a solid Civic group get to ask questions of our governing representatives on matters that are of interest to The People, such as and not limited to: Why pass a law that restrains the government from getting the best price on drugs from big Pharma? Why are we subsidizing Big Oil? Why the drone program and how exactly does it work? Why do we need to spend a Trillion dollars annually on defense? Why is there so much Lobbying money allowed in politics? These, and many other questions that We The People have no answers to. Once elections are over, our representatives get ingrained in a system that locks in many would be good intentioned people into a slow process of change that is neither good for the country nor does it solve many of the bigger issues. I want more clarity as to who, why, where these decisions are made and by whom so I can better understand who our congress is serving.

If enacted, this would provide single payer health care for residents of the State of Washington.

Having worked in inner-city schools, lived in several big cities, I believe everyone in the United States is adversely affected by unfettered gun culture. I learned to shoot a rifle at 12 when I was admitted into the NRA. It shapes your values, and in some ways, even warps them, giving people a false sense of pride and security. The invocation of patriotism in defense of the Second Amendment is not only often hysterical, it is simply deluded, as legal firearms by themselves do not have the capability of posing a violent political challenge to the agents of the United States Federal Government. In fact, if "freedom" is used as the last argument to defend the Second Amendment, well then, those that would abuse "freedom" in this manner are also likely to ignore all law. I think it's important that people who have NOT been directly affected by gun violence speak up on this issue. That's why I'm speaking up. All firearms, except for registered antiques, should be manufactured, without exception, to have fingerprint technology which recognizes only one gun owner's handgrip at a time, and GPS technology which instantly provides law enforcement the geographic position and time when a firearm is ever again discharged. The Second Amendment is an obstacle to putting all the technologies of government surveillance on gun owners. It is just a law. Harmful laws should be repealed. What could be more logical?
