Should Americans have the right to a direct vote in a National Referendum on matters of national concern such as: Amending the Constitution Recalls of officials Overturning laws and/or treaties

Grover Norquist is not an elected official, and he's not a political appointee. Republicans fear him and his organization, Americans For Tax Reform. They have signed The Pledge. The Pledge is forever. Grover will not allow them to UNSIGN The Pledge. American citizens did not sign The Pledge. Most of us do not even know about it, but we are adversely affected by it. The Pledge leaves no room for compromise. Without compromise, there is no democracy.

We need to pass a bill that makes it illegal to be a congressman/woman and to: 1. accept campaign funds (conflict of interest or bribery) 2. participate in insider trading.

GOP: remove "Family Values" from core values given Gingrich, Vitter,Sanford, etc.

We have been trying to reach Rep. Coffman and give him the opportunity to tell us how he will represent us -- the 99% of his constituents who are not part of the wealthiest 1%. We have called his local constituent office and his D.C. office.  We have tried to reach Rep. Coffman at places across his district.  But we haven’t had any luck tracking him down. We have made ourselves available to him. Now it's his turn to make himself available to us -- his constituents. Specifically, we want Rep. Coffman to host a Town Hall in Aurora this June. This would allow current and prospective constituents to know what kind of representative he is and what kind of representative he will be for all of Colorado’s 6th Congressional District. Sign the petition and ask Rep. Coffman to host a public Town Hall in Aurora this June.

This petition calls upon our governments, business, media, and us to address the really important issues--political, economic, social, and environmental--of our time. Without the serious involvement of all of us, life for future generations will be dismal.

the purpose of social security is for the elderly and not to be used for other purposes such as the president did when he borrowed to pay for elsewhere and promised to pay back and didn't.

When appearing in court, you put your hand on a bible and swear to tell the whole truth, the whole truth, so help you god. Why then should we the people have to listen to lies during a campaign?

Stop losing your homes to service providers who have no proof of ownership of your promissory note. MY job is to compare the success court documents as they become available so that we all can profit from each successful court case

In Washington and in many states, as well, bloated pay and benefits packages insulate Legislators from the reality felt by their constituents; thus, they support massive tax cuts for folks like themselves and benefit cuts for the rest of us. Before they increase the burden on the poor and middle class, they should be forced to cut corners on themselves.

Does the US government REALLY care about us common people? If you think the government, does NOT care about us common people, then sign the petition.

Republican Gov. Chris Christie is campaigning for Mitt Romney and Scott Walker while pushing a legislative agenda that is as cruel, unfair and counterproductive as any conservative con-artist ot Tea Party pinhead in America. Meanwhile, his biggest cheerleaders are Newark Mayor Cory Booker, Senate President Steve Sweeney and Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver and her Essex County employers. If is time for New Jersey Democrats to stand up to the bully instead of rolling over for Republicans!
