• Lobbyists Can Give Nothing of Value to Federal and State Officeholders
    Lobbyists often exert disproportionate influence on elected and appointed state and federal officeholders on many pending legislative issues to the detriment of most citizens and the general welfare of the nation. All citizens, including myself, are affected, when the majority of the people's interests are ignored in favor of small interest groups with special vested interests. The reason is that lawmakers are receiving lavish gifts, vacations, donations to campaign organizations, and other items that can potentially influence their decision making.

  • Ban paid campaign adds.
    No Media should get paid for airing any election campaign adds and all adds should be checked for honesty and propaganda . Lying to cheat people out of their vote should be held as fraud and any one convicted should forfeit his or her office and go to prison.

  • Make them accountable for Blocking Progress
    As a Veteran, I was affected by GOP, Koch, and their Organization trying to buy their way, through Presidency. And Block Veterans, their Benefits, and causing Homelessness, Joblessness, Businesses Close. America is affected by all this just so they can have what they want, it doesn't work that way. 99% have the right to have a decent life, all the scuffling and struggling is become tiring and they must be held accountable for obstruction, justice, voting rights, obstructing the country.

  • Lobby pledges
    I feel it is morally wrong for an elected official to sign a pledge to not raise taxes or face economic retaliation. An elected official should represent all of his/her constituancy and not a labbying group.

  • Just The Facts! Please!
    Getting honest news, without political bias. We have an agency to monitor the media. It is entitled the Federal Communication Commission. Let's give them the power and the obligation to insist that anything labeled as news be just that. News. Not opinion, not lies, and not speculation. In order to empower a populace that populace must have the facts.

    If you want to hold a government office in The USA and determine its laws, you should believe enough in our country to leave your money in it! Financial parasites affect the health of our economy negatively. In for a penny, in for a pound.

  • Don't Use Electronic Voting Machines
    To insure valid counting of ballots during the November presidential election, PLEASE pledge to vote by PAPER BALLOT ONLY. The 2000 and 2004 elections contained too many discrepancies to put the presidency in the crosshairs of those extreme corporations that manufacture the electronic voting machines.

  • Keep The Separation of Church and State
    Religion has affected far too much of policy and lawmaking in this country. It has caused divisiveness , bias against women and minorities, and there are far to many polititians eho rum on religiuos platforms in political office who tout their religious views as policy goals. Keep the church out of government policy making or strip them of their tax free status. Do not allow lawmakers to use their personal religious beliefs to make law or policy decisions
