• Texas Legislators: Support "We, the People" of Texas by passing SCR 2
    The 2010 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Citizens United v Federal Election Commission gave virtually unlimited power to corporations to influence elections and other civil matters in our country at all levels of government by granting them the same political free speech rights as living human beings. Only a constitutional amendment can overcome this state of affairs. A resolution has been submitted to both houses of the Texas Legislature that, if passed, would direct the U.S. Congress to initiate this amendment process.

  • Stop Secession Movement in the United States
    Recently some groups in all 50 states have started petitions to seceed from the United States. All Americans need to immediately put a stop to this pre-Civil War action. This is the same action that happened prior to the Civil War in this country. It is ludicrous and has tones of tratorism in it.

  • Political Perks of Congressmen and Senators
    I feel if we are all having to make sacrifices especially the middle class then the politicians should have to live the same way we do once they leave office.Just think about the amount of money this saves the American people and could be put towards the deficit to bring it down,

  • Campaign finance reform
    Limit the amount of money directly or indirectly involved in campaigning. We should also legally shorten the amount of time candidates are allowed to campaign. And we should pass legislation to get rid of PACs and super PACs.

  • Stop the hostage standoff!
    Being held HOSTAGE to a 1% majority. The house of Representatives has held us HOSTAGE for the benefit of the rich. And because of this all America has lost out. We have until December 31, to rally behind our President. We see the benefits of his proposals. And we need to mobilize all Americans regardless of party affiliation. We have the benefit of numbers And we must not tolerate this mindset anymore.

  • Demand A Competent National Science Policy
    Our space program has foundered for too long. Do you know that we spend more every year on air conditioning for the military than we do on NASA's entire budget. Tell congress that creating the technologies and jobs of tomorrow is important even in times of economic downturn.

  • Make the filibuster a real filibuster
    Too often, good ideas die in the Senate even when they have majority support because a single Senator can tie up the process and prevent an up-or-down vote. They can do this not by mounting an impassioned lengthy floor speech, but by making one quick call and then heading out to dinner. If Senators want to filibuster, they should be required to stand on the floor and make their case to the American people with a real, talking filibuster. Please, sign our petition in support of making the filibuster a real, talking filibuster.

  • Support General Petraeus
    I believe it's time for ALL citizens-Democrats,Republicans, the Far Left to the Far Right, to come to the support of a great American. While our country is saddly deeply divided on many issues, it is painful to see a man whose life has been dedicated to our country so arrogantly besmirched for a personal and sad indiscretion.
