Lines Interfere with National Elections ActThe Poll Watcher Brigade, Inc., a non-partisan organization domiciled in Tennessee supports the passage of the Line Act (or the Lines Interfere with National Elections Act). Senator Barbara Boxer introduced the bill. The election reform legislation is designed to guarantee that all American voters will have an equal chance to cast a ballot in federal elections without facing hours-long delays at their polling places. Voters in Florida, Virginia, Ohio and other states waited in line for up to seven hours to cast a ballot. The bill would require the Attorney General, in consultation with the U.S. Election Assistance Commission to issue new national standards by January 1, 2014 to prevent a waiting time of more than one hour at any polling place. The bill would also require states where voters endured long lines to implement plans to fix the problems before the next federal election.203 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Carmen Johnson

Pension Plans FirstI have met people who have lost their pensions due to bankruptcy. They no longer have that pension to count on when they retire. When a company goes into bankruptcy, the company should have to pay their pension obligations off first. Workers should not suffer during a bankruptcy when executives get big bonus' and full pay.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carol Bunk
