• No overtime pay for state senate or state representatives
    These people are paid to do a job. They should not pe paid extra if they cannot do the job in a timely matter. It is absurd that they get paid extra to argue as to how to spend our limited resources. I' m tired of spending my tax dollars for ineffective government.

  • Voting Rights
    There are too many people in the rural and hard to reach areas of Alaska to ask people to have more than a driver’s license or one other type of ID. If you have a voter card that should be enough, because it means you’re signed up to vote. Some of us older people only have 1 or 2 forms of ID.

  • Reinstate Cost of Living Adjustments Taken Away by the 'Governator'
    In 2008, then-Governor Swarzenegger took away, not one but two, of the largest Cost of Living Allowances since 1982 costing the state's elderly, blind, and disabled, more than several hundreds of dollars per month; the largest being the 5.8% COLA in 2009. At a time when seniors, the blind, and the disabled are making half what they need to afford a dignified living, according to California's 'Elderly Index', the State of California needs to REINSTATE THOSE COLA PAYMENTS to those who need them the most.

  • Ban The Naming Of Public Spaces After Those Who Have Taken Up Arms Against America
    It is inappropriate and offensive to those who have served to protect our nations freedoms to name any publicly controled space, such as a park, government building, monument or street in honor of any person or organization which engaged in violent rebellion against the United States of America.

  • Fix Congress
    The US is up to $ 16.6 trillion now in the stealing from our Great Grand Children. It is a spending and leadership problem at the highest levels of our national government. Congress needs to be restructured to reflect the original ideas of "citizen representation". Vote for term limits for Congress!

  • Term Limits on MD State Legislature
    Long standing members of the General Assembly control many aspects of all Marylanders' lives, in all districts, even though the majority have never voted for or against their continuance in office. Our local representatives are powerless against the entrenched political machine. Term limitations will help ensure such vast power does not become concentrated in individuals who were not directly elected by those upon whom their actions effect.

  • Lower wages for government elected officials
    The fact that politics is now profession for the rich which does not represent the population. I call for all wages to be in line with the average citizen in military and the same benefit package. We shall no longer allow ellected officials to vote on there own raises.

  • Change legislation to allow community owned broadband networks to end users
    I am currently using Comcast to access the internet and access basic cable channels. The costs are high and the premium channels are bundled making the cost of TV access excessive. A local public utility could easily provide internet and cable TV access at a lower cost. This would help the school system by making high-speed internet available to students.

  • Compromise in Congress: Purple Compromise
    Purple is a symbolic mix of Red and Blue. All of us see our Congress in gridlock, and in this petition we call for compromise where both sides work to protect and champion the other's imperatives while sculpting legislation that works, without refusing to participate, to cover broad interests for the good of the Nation.
