  • Term limits for Congressmen and women
    Our representatives spend much of their time fund raising to enable them to stay in office. Long term congressional people are subservient to lobbyists' money, not the good of the country. The constitution did not envision career politicians!

  • Stop wasting taxpayer money with political theater
    The Republican leaders of the House are about to (yet again--they have done this 30 times already) take a vote to repeal the Health Care Law. The Supreme Court ruled in favor of this, and there is no way this will pass the Senate. Why are they wasting our money and not getting down to work on issues that can get something done? Even if this takes only an hour of their time, this costs the US taxpayers over $38,000 not counting administrative costs! If this were a private corporation, these people would be fired.

  • Rep. Cravaack: Schedule a Town Hall meeting in Duluth!
    Rep. Cravaack hasn't held a public town hall in Duluth, the largest urban center in his district, in almost a year. We've been trying to reach Rep. Cravaack to talk to us about his support for the GOP's Billionaire Budget, his vote to scale-back the Violence Against Women Act, and all the other times he's put the 1% before his constituents. We called his local constituent office and his congressional office in D.C, but we haven’t had any luck tracking him down. On June 15, Rep. Cravaack told us that he was planning something "special" for Duluth. But he refused to say when or where.

  • Abolish the Electoral College
    Electoral votes determine who our president will be, not the popular vote. The 538 Electoral voters are hand picked by the polital parties.This Red state - Blue state winner takes all approach is archaic and a dangerous concentration of power. Since 1944 every Gallup poll indicates the majority of Americans are in favor of an amendment to allow for direct election of the president. The 17th amendment gave us direct election of senators. It's time to take back the power of the vote and abolish the electoral college! To better understand how the electoral collage works: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Vote2004/story?id=199823&page=1

  • Separation of Cash and State
    Elected officials need to be able to run and debate other politicians running for public office on the merits of their specific policies they are promoting without taking money contributions to fund their campaigns. The old way of politicians going to the wealthy, the wealthy sponoring a politician and big business financing political campaigns only corrupts and influences our elected decision makers to pass laws and regulations to benifit those that fund their campaigns.

  • Term Limits
    We need to put term limits on all Senators, Congressman, Alderman, Judges and even Supreme Court Judges. Many of these individuals are just sitting there biding their time to retire on obscene pensions while they enrich themselves at the expense of taxpayers.

  • Republicans RENOUNCE your allegiance to GROVER NORQUIST
    Most, if not all, Republicans HAVE PLEDGED ALLEGIANCE to GROVER NORQUIST (and his insistence on their ALWAYS voting against ANY new taxes). Such a pledge MAY under some circumstances supersede the allegiance to THE flag of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. An occasion may happen, for example, in time of war or another SPECIAL NATIONAL NEED that new taxes are not only important, but even necessary. The Republicans' NORQUIST pledge may interfere with national security.
