• Proposed 28th Amendment to the Constitution
    The Legislative and Executive branches of the US gov't. continually place legal burdens upon the American People (ObamaCare, OSHA regulations, gun control, et al) that they exempt themselves from. This needs to stop, and make our legislators and Executive Branch members just as accountable to the laws, rules, and regulations they promulgate as We the People are.

  • Get the Money Out of Politics
    The only way to have open, meaningful elections, and government responsive to the people, is to have publicly funded elections. This petition urges the Maine legislature to take a step in that direction.

  • Texas Govenor Term Limits
    The Democrat citizen voices in the state are not even recognized with respect to such laws governing gun control, healthcare, and abortion due to the tyrannical control of the Republican party.

  • U.S. Constitutional Convention To End Big Money Influence
    To restore true democracy in the United States by pressuring our State Representatives to pass a much needed 28th Amendment to our Constitution which would end corporate personhood and publicly finance all elections in our country. There are only 2 ways to amend the Constitution. (1) Go through our federal government (2) Go through our State Legislators via a Constitutional Convention.

  • Pennsylvania Legislature, Reform Redistricting
    In the 2012 election, Democratic candidates for Congress received over 50% of the vote, but only got five of the eighteen seats. Several districts, including the one I live in, had landslide victories. Pennsylvanians deserve competitive elections, and fair elections. However, that will not be done unless party politics is taken out of redistricting.

  • Remove Partisanship from State Employment
    Designating 1000 state jobs as "appointed positions" is a disastrous and purely partisan move. This is an increase from the 400 senior level managerial positions that were previously designated. This increase significantly changes the civil service of North Carolina into a patronage system and does damage to the professionalism and credibility of the state. This is a shameful abuse of power and deleterious not only to employees in the system but to the citizens whose tax dollars support these positions.

  • Virginia Piracy
    Voting in a fair and equal environment is a constitutional right--a right that is being taken away by Republican legislators and taken away using subversive tactics. We must make absolutely certain that Governor McDonnell vetoes this bill!

  • No Budget, No Pay
    If members of Congress can’t do their jobs and pass a responsible budget, then they don’t deserve to get paid. It is important to work together to come up with a balanced budget that reduces our debt, while keeping our country safe, and reasonable revenues for responsible programs to invest in our future.

  • gun controls everywhere
    Stop the foot dragging with creating serious gun controls. I do not want to be a victim of the next rampage nor anyone else to be likewise effected. Time we grew up in this country and stop trying to be the "wild west" again.

  • Stop Congress from cutting your Medicare and Social Security
    The discussion about cutting both Social Security and Medicare is entirely out of line when it comes to balancing the budget. Reducing military spending and eliminating corporate loopholes for evading taxes are much more viable options.

  • Sensible Gun Control
    Every day people in this country die from gun violence, but few incidents make the news. After every mass shooting there is outrage, but no action. We need to act and we need to do it now!
