• Co-sponsor election modernization today
    Last November, some voters in Massachusetts had to wait hours to cast their vote and many others did not vote due to our out-dated voter registration system. This must change. It is time to pass comprehensive election reform legislation -- including election audits, pre-registration for 16 and 17 year-olds, online voter registration, Election Day Registration and more. Let us write our legislators and demand election reform for 2013 in Massachusetts.

  • Actual work for pay and benefits
    Are you getting tired of Congress hardly ever being in session? It seems we are basically paying them to campaign or go to party seminars. I suggest that we start paying Congress BY THE HOUR!! They must be in session or committee hearings to collect any wage. Paying them minimum wage might be a good way to open their eyes to the plight of their constituents.

  • End the Electoral College
    This will prevent a political party from gerrymandering and stealing presidential campaigns that they can't win by popular vote. It's time to end the Electoral College and elect our President by popular vote.

  • Recall Rick Scott
    Florida needs someone who'll bring jobs to the state, not someone whose political ideology stands in the way of people making a decent wage. Bring the high-speed rail and other businesses to Florida. Floridians need jobs not a do nothing govenor. We want someone who works FOR the people, not against them and their families.

  • Require a mandate in gubernatorial elections.
    The Governor of Texas should be elected by a majority vote. It is a shame that any elected official should hold office with only 40% of the votes going to him or her.

  • Medical Marijuana State Regulations
    It is time for the state legislatures to pass statewide rules and regulations to govern the medical marijuana industry in California. It is only in this way that we stand a chance of blocking the federal government from interfering with the rights and needs of medical marijuana patients and the dispensaries which supply them.

  • Tell the Montana Legislature: Accept Federal Medicaid Funds
    Under the Affordable Care Act, states are eligible to receive new funding to expand their Medicaid programs. Montana lawmakers have not yet indicated if they will accept the funds to expand Medicaid in Montana. Tell Montana state legislators to accept federal Medicaid dollars and protect the 64,000 Montanans that would benefit.

  • Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution
    For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform that passed ... in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not have an elite that is above the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The self-serving must stop.

  • Redistricting/Jerrymandering
    I understand that redistricting is sometimes necessary as populations grow, but unfortunately a lot of redistricting is taking place these days and not for the reasons that it was initially intended for. Redistricting for political gain, known as jerrymandering, affects what parties control the House of Representatives, it could also affect other elections as well. This is a democracy for and by the people, and the people’s votes should not be tampered with in any way no matter what party they belong to.
