AT their current wages this will allow them to be paid $2,500.00 us bucks for each day worked. Why haven't they taken the pay cuts most middle class people have rrecieved over the last serveral years

The South Dakota voters have shown not once, but TWICE, that we support a woman's right to choose what is right for her body in regard to pregnancy, yet bills keep being introduced in attempt to ban or limit abortion. The newest is an attempt to remove holidays and weekends from the "eligible days" of the already absurd 72-hour waiting period before a woman can obtain an abortion. This makes the procedure nearly impossible to schedule, as there is only one clinic in the state that performs abortions. The legislators need to stop wasting taxpayer time, money, and resources in this endless battle that has already been fought and defeated.......TWICE. Stop stifling the voice of the voters, and accept what we are telling you: South Dakota is a pro-choice state and wants to remain that way!

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.

John Brennan's role in the Bush administration contributed to some of the most disgraceful actions committed by the US government.

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.

make elections equal and fair without that it's a slippery slope ....

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.
