• Term Limits
    My petition would be about term limits for Federal Senators and Representatives in the House. This affects all of us. Unlimited terms contributes to elected officials becomeing more and more beholden to the big money lobbyists. It is easier for new 'blood' to get into oour Congress.

  • Limit Campaigning Time
    The campaigning has lasted almost 2 years with constant ads on television and calls on our phones. This is an entire invasion of my privacy. I pay for my home, my tv, my satellite service and my phones. I have registered with the do-not-call list. Yet these things are dominated by constant campaigning that I do not care to listen to and do not want invading my life. There should be a limit of 2 months prior to election for campaigning and politician should not have access to our phone numbers.

  • Stop giving public money to the Chamber of Commerce
    The local chamber is stacked with people who constantly raise money to support causes that help only one party. The local governments have supported the chamber to the tune of a little over $500,000 last year. We want our local government to stop supporting an organization that speaks for less than 30% of the population.

    Mitt Romney needs to release his foreign bank account records not more tax returns. Let the IRS see if his tax returns listed all the money he made in his foreign accounts

  • Get Jill Stein and Gary Johnson to the Presidential debates.
    From the media coverage, you'd think that the only two candidates running for President were Romney and Obama. But they're not. Jill Stein is running on the Green Party ticket and Gary Johnson is running on the Libertarian ticket. Let's see if we can get them invited to participate in the upcoming Presidential debates.

  • STOP CORPORATE DOMINATION OF POLITICS
    Since the Supreme Court's unfortunate and unwise decision to allow unlimited contributions from corporations AND without the requirement to reveal the sources, our political system has been poisoned by Big Money. In the capitalist business realm the rule is one dollar one vote. We cannot allow this rule to preside in the democratic realm. We must keep the one PERSON one vote rule as our guiding principle.

  • LIMITING THE FILIBUSTER RULE
    The filibuster has been abused by overuse in recent years. It is both an indication and a tool for political division, gridlock and paralysis. Two aspects need correction: 1)the frequency of use needs to be limited and 2)the bar on cloture votes needs to be lowered from the 60 vote level.

  • End the 2 party system
    We are tired of having to choose the lesser of 2 evils. Every party should have equal grounds for presidency. Let's have all candidates on the stage and let the people vote indiscrimintly.

  • Congress stop blocking president Obama
    Congress needs to set aside their racist behavior and start working with President Obama to get their jobs done and take care of the people who elected them. Start working together now, not when and if it's an advantage to your party affiliation.

  • Stop SFMTA (San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency)
    Update on SFMTA activities! Our first two requests were met some time ago. At this point, SFMTA has painted itself into such a tight corner by destroying too much and angering too many citizens. There are too many complaints for the Board of Supervisors to ignore. The voters denied the SFMTA any additional sales tax funds that will cut hundreds of thousands of dollars out of their budget. Now they plan to raise the bridge tolls and charge the cash-paying riders more money to take the Muni. The next ballot initiative to consider is PROPOSITION 6 that would repeal the gas bill.
