  • Reform Proposition 13
    This proposition is a plea to have the old Proposition 13 tax law overhauled in several ways. Firstly, it is completely insidious that corporations such as Google pay property tax rates based on this law, while accumulating millions of dollars in profits at the expense of California school systems and protection services from the police and fire departments. Secondly, it is completely unfair that new homeowners have to pay taxes based upon this law for extremely high priced homes, when their neighbors have willed their properties to their children who then receive the benefit of this law, when it was originally supposed to be for people who would live in their home until death so they could afford to keep their homes. This is unfair to younger families who are then forced to pay an unrealistic tax rate to pay for the deficiencies in tax revenue. My son and daughter in law live in Los Altos California and the price of homes is around $700.000 to a million dollars. This tax law prevents them from being able to buy a home with the addition of a tax that adds thousands of dollars more to a home while the people living across the street pay taxes based on a home purchased for $22,000.00 paying practically nothing in yearly property taxes. This is happening all over the state of California. Mr. Jarvis has been deceased for many years, the law is out of date for the current economic situation of our state and country. The most glaring inequity being the amount that large corporations pay for their multimillion, billion dollar businesses. Please help us bring this issue to the forefront of reformation in our state for the good of education and protection services, not to mention the affordability of homes for young families. My name is Jean Nielson. I was an educator for twenty years. I know the crisis in education and it is destroying our college system, as well as the K-12 system. I am working after retirement because I still care for children and the welfare of our future. Help Californians realize the damage of this proposition. Please sign my petition so we can limit corporate wealth and help the citizens of our state. Sincerely, Jean Nielson MA Education

    Congress wants to make cuts to Social Security and Medicare, let's see them take the cuts first. They are the ones responsible for overspending anyway.

  • Tell John Boehner to stop trying to run the White House!!
    John Boehner needs to stop trying to run the White House. He is not the Preident. He is always speaking down to the President. This is uncalled for.

  • COLORADANS FOR FILIBUSTER REFORM
    To restore the democratic process in the Senate by reducing the gridlock, we petition our Senators to reform the filibuster rules and to restore majority rule for legislative initiatives at the beginning of the new congress. This process began last year by House District 2 in Denver, and they're now being joined by like-minded progressives across the state of Colorado.

  • Classic Car Friendly Insurance Law
    Nevada Insurance regulations require any car with license plates to be fully insured year round. This is stupid for classic cars that are only driven a few times per year to car shows. Consequently, classic car owners either don't drive their cars or they license and insure them at out of State addresses to get around this unrealistic law. Nevada is out of touch with the rest of the country where "cruise nights" generate millions of dollars of local business revenue. Time to Change this insurance law for classic car owners in Nevada. This law will save classic car owners thousands of dollars that they can spend to grow the economy and not line the pockets of insurance companies- who now get money for cars that are rarely driven. If they do license and insure their cars in Nevada, the extra cost per year is almost $100 EACH TIME YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR TO 5 car shows. This stupid law-that makes it too expensive to drive your classic cars a few times per year - has prevented the development of "cruise nights" in Nevada-and the State's economy is loosing millions of dollars of economic stimulation.

  • term limits on public officials
    Our public officials have become some of our biggest problems and always seem to forget what they were elected to do. They seem to think that once elected,they are entitled to a free ride for life.
