  • Stand Up for What You Believe
    There is only one opportunity for the Senate to change its rules concerning filibusters and that is on the first day of the next session. Senator Reid needs to hear from everyone about how important it is that one Senator not be allowed to shut off voting just by saying "I object."

    I am concerned by the extent of control and power exerted by Grover Norquist on our politicians who have signed his anti tax pledge over the last twenty years.

  • Abolish the Electoral College
    The Electoral College is an antiquated system that should be abolished; it is no longer relevant and limits the power of each vote.

  • TERM LIMITS
    The only way congress can remain fresh and effective is to have a constant infusion of new blood every few years. Incumbents have too much of a campaign advantage and become entrenched and out of touch with regular people. They spend all their time trying to get re-elected rather than legislating.

  • Save money cut the benefit package to senators and congressmen
    Senators and congressmen enjoy the best medical coverage in the country, at a significant cost to tax payers. The conservatives in this country seem to want to cut social services to help reduce the debt, so how about they start by dropping their medical coverage which is a life long expense, extending well past their time in office.

  • Ambassador Susan Rice: Keep Fighting to be Secretary of State
    Ambassador Susan Rice is the most qualified candidate for Secretary of State. But Republicans are obstructing her nomination, and now she has removed herself for consideration. We need a talented diplomat like Rice to stay in the fight to become the next Secretary of State.

  • U. S. Exclusive Loyalty
    People in government who make decisions where exclusive loyalty to the US is required.I'm particularly concerned about members of congress who retain their dual citizenship with Israel, while voting on foreign aid and military and diplomatic support. One cannot have loyalty to more than one country at a time.

  • Another Attempt to Destroy Our Democracy
    The Republicans are using gerrymandering (redistricting the states) to stack the deck in their favor. This has allowed them to unethically win elections. As a result they are breaking unions, beating down the middle class and the most vulnerable. Their plan is to use this process to win the election in 2016. Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Michigan and Wisconsin have been affected. All states are fair game for them. These are tactics backed by the Koch brothers and ALEC.
