Gun control

I think all politicians should have their pension plans cut significantly and their cadillac insurance plans replaced by medicare.

Don't you think it's time we ditched the 2nd Amendment?

This petition is to demand that U.S. Senators support Sen. Tom Harkin's proposal on filibuster reform, under which legislation can be slowed down, but not kept from the U.S. Senate floor, by the supermajority requirement. The GOP has misused the filibuster rule to block not only tax reform and jobs bills, but judicial nominations as well.

Why did Congress get inflation adjustments in recent years (2009 and 2010) while seniors were denied it--do we live in different worlds?

Not only are these institutions too big to fail, they are too big to regulate and too powerful to prosecute.

This petition is about getting those that are discharged from nursing homes affordable apartments & also those that are disabled. I'm currently in a nursing home & I can't get my own apartment due to the fact that the rent is too much or it's not affordable...

We have been held hostage by lifelong politicians who no longer serve the community and their constituents. It is time to add language to our laws that will limit term limits for all politicians. If two terms is long enough for the President, it is long enough for the Senate and House.

Congress compensation

Sen/Congress We American's are sick and tired of the game playing that had gone on and contiues to go on. STOP ACTING LIKE 2 YR OLDS, Our voices were heard on Election Night, they will be heard again LOUD & CLEAR ..

The Republicans want to cut the benefits that so many people in this country need - in most part due to their ineptness in the 8 years that President Bush was in office. The unfunded wars and tax cuts put this country into debt. They deregulated Wall Street. It is time for the Senators and Congressmen to accept their fair share in the cuts.

Enough is enough. Americans shouldn't have to be worried that an irresponsible gun-owning parent's recklessness will result in the slaughter of their young children at school. We need REAL gun control. Stringent rules such as those in Australia or the UK. Dramatic reductions in the numbers of guns in American homes. In order to do that, we must first repeal the 2nd Amendment, to remove the deadly constitutional right of all Americans to own as many lethal weapons as they desire. Repealing the 2nd amendment won't automatically make all gun ownership illegal, but it will allow us to move forward and create the rational rules we need for the 21st century.
