• Social Justice not Entitlement
    Congress is about to reduce the Medicare and social security of older Americans. Don't let them reduce your retirement and medical benefits without first addressing their own very rich benefits. Do you know that a one term senator is entitled to life time benefits at the rate of their current salaries for the rest of their lives. That is for 6 years of their lives they get a life time pension. This needs to be addressed before working people's benefits are reduced.

  • TERM LIMITS
    We can no longer afford to have career politicians whose vested interest is keeping their job by spending our money to ingratiate themselves with a particular constituency. Demand your representatives pass term limits.

  • Cut the salaries and pensions of the United States Senators and Congressmen
    This petition is about the stale mate between the entire U.S. Congress and the President over spending cuts. Some Congressmen want to put the burden of spending cuts on the underprivileged citizens, poor, and elderly, who cannot afford them. I am asking that the Senators and Congressman share in the burden of the spending cuts.

  • Stringent gun laws...protect our children
    This school is not far from where my grandchildren attend Elementary and Middle school and I want to insure that all the children who attend schools are safe and protected. I want school officials to make this a top priority , to lock doors, have stringent plans in place to avoid another tragedy that happened at Sandy Hook, CT. Stop the sale of assault weapons and make stricter laws to accomodate this. Keep our children safe.

  • Pass a budget that gets serious about reducing the national debt!
    The President has failed to present a budget proposal that has recovered a single vote in four years in office. The Senate has not passed a budget proposal in four years. The nation has racked up over $6 trillion in new debt, borrowing over 40 cents of every dollar the government spends. If there is no budget presented and passed no elected member of Congress nor the President gets paid. They will not receive back pay either.

  • Constitutional Amendment on Guns
    It is apparent that a majority of the elected members of the United States Congress do not have the political courage or political will to enact meaningful legislation to deal with the epidemic of gun violence facing our nation. Accordingly, under Article V of the United States Constitution, we the citizens of the United States demand that the Legislatures of two-thirds of our States apply to the Congress to call a Constitutional Convention to adopt the Amendment to the United States Constitution set forth below.

  • Fix the Filibuster
    A simple Democratic majority in the Senate has the power to change Senate rules to require an actual stand up and talk filibuster of Senate actions in place of the current "I will block" motions that allow the Rebublican minority to prevent the Senate from getting much done. This change can only be made on the first day of the new session, January 3rd, 2013. Why should we be ruled by the minority?
