• Limit Term of Texas Governors
    Texas is not progressing as fast as it could. We are on the bottom rung of the ladder in areas that we could definitely be in the forefront. Like education & health-care,just to name a few.

  • Save Seniors by PAYING YOUR SHARE
    If Senators and Congressmen/women had to pay for their own health insurance and had their incomes cut when they retire, they may not be so quick to try saving our economy on the backs of the elderly, poor and sick.

  • Help stop gerrymandering
    Gerrymandering or using a partisan process to design election districts is creating an ultra partisan government which hinders any progress on important issues. We urge you to develop and implement an impartial non-partisan process to help correct this issue. Let's get back to letting government work for the people!

  • Term limits for Congress
    Too many Congressional people make a career out of being in Congress. I feel they make more than most in our nation, have better benefits, more vacation time than should be. They have it better than our service people. The longer they are in the more they can work the system. Terms limits would give others a voice to be heard, not the career politition.

  • Preferential Ballots
    I think we should demand that for the next presidential election we have preferential ballots. This way you can vote for whatever candidate you want no matter how minor they seem to be because your first and second choices are both counted. Therefore the candidate that wins will better understand what issues Americans really feel strongly about.

  • Cancel Congressional Healthcare Benefits
    Until every US citizen has universal access to healthcare, then taxpayers shall cease paying for healthcare for elected members of Congress or Govenors who can readily pay for own healthcare. End this financial burden on hardworking taxpayers now.

  • One Six year term limit for all members of the US Congress.
    The US Congress, as it consists today is beholden to special interests. If members of Congress are restricted to one six year term in office they would weigh more carefully how they vote on bills and laws since they would be affecting their own lives directly when they return to the electorate.
