Make the filibuster a real filibusterToo 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.254 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Chris Bowers

Support General PetraeusI 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.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bill Dorfman

New Jersey: Ripping off citizens with state surcharges on top of Motor Vehicle punishments.I know many people who have made a mistake or mistakes while driving in the state of New Jersey. They are ticketed, fined, pointed, and must watch as their car insurance goes up, and New Jersey punishes them even more with a state surcharge that must be paid over 3 years. All of this money goes to the state. New Jersey, according to Wikipedia, is the only state in United States that imposes these surcharges, and it is 100% unfair.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Deborah Levi

Fix the Florida Voting IssuesThis is a recurring theme that is in every recent election making people wait in line for many hours to cast their vote and not being able to count the votes in a timely manner. Four years should have been enough time to solve these issues.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Larry Waller

Electoral college OUT, Popular vote INI am an American who feels that the voting process is a travesty of democracy. It should be based on the popular vote and not on the Electoral college (Winner takes all). This past election made that very clear when Barack Obama had been declared the winner with only 60% of the popular vote counted.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by C. Vorhies

Line Item VetoAs we once again approach a fiscal cliff and our national debt is higher than ever before we need to control government spending. Although it is not the end all be all solution it is a small step in the right direction to allow the President to veto line items in budget bills to stop the practice of adding pet projects to important legislation knowing full well their pork barrel project will get funding due to the importance of the larger issue. Additionally the President needs the authority to eliminate unnecessary riders to legislation for the same reason.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by William Lumsden
