Congressmen and women should: - have to buy Health Insurance on open market just like us - have to have their own 401K's just like us - have to disclose share dealings to IRS just like us - have to ask the voter if they can increase salaries just like us asking the boss - have to pay for cafeteria and gym services just like us

The destruction of our democracy can only be stopped if the majority of us make it clear that we demand a constitutional amendment prohibiting any person or entity from donating ANY money to a candidate's campaign (and that includes a millionaire candidate buying his own election). The recent Supreme Court decision (Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission) has now made corporations “persons” entitled to use their vast amounts of money to influence legislation that serves their needs and not necessarily those of the public. The 99% need to have a greater voice in what our elected officials are legislating and not the 1% who hold the majority of the wealth in this country. Simply passing a law, i.e. the McCain–Feingold Act, has shown that this is clearly not enough when the main provisions of the law can be eviscerated by a Court ruling. We must demand a Constitutional Amendment.

There are too many issues affecting the lives of the American People to continue with our "patch-up" politics. We don't just need new laws, new debates, and new conversations; we need to rebuild from the core out. Franklin D. Roosevelt, a true American hero and one of the greatest United States Presidents in our great nation's history saw the state of the Union for what it truly is: under attack. He had the foresight and the courage to do what politicians today don't dare to do: he dismissed big business and big money and acted in the best interest of the nation's people to devise a second Bill of Rights to protect our economic rights from becoming corporate property. Now, when we and most of the rest of the world are facing the fight of our lives, the fight for liberty and justice within a global economy, we are more in need of the ratification of President Roosevelt's wisdom than ever.

This Petition is to restore the right of federal review which Congress stole from the American People by way of the Supreme Court Case Selection Act of 1988. In this legislation, Congress amended 28 USC 1257(a) and took the "right of appeal" to the U.S. Supreme Court to compel review from the highest decision of a State Court which infringed upon rights, privileges and immunity protected by the Constitution and Laws of the United States.

75% of politicians in Washington DC and in many of the states are protected from being defeated fairly in elections due to the (criminal in my view) practice of Gerrymandering. Some are so ludicrous they defy all sense of logic to the electorate. This needs to stop, even if it takes a change or two on the Supreme Court.

Career politicians are the cause of gridlock in Washington D.C. Career politicians spend more time fighting for political advantage and re-election than doing whats right for the country. In a time when this nation has been dragged into a recession reminiscent o1920's era depression career politicians stuck on old ideas and ideology have become roadblocks to doing what's right for America. We're calling for term limits on all members of Congress to bring new, bold ideas to the country and to remove the roadblock of career politicians.

Move politicians into the social security and health benifits that the 99 percent receive.

Govenor Walker should not even consider changing the Wisconsin Retirement System to allow public employee members to participate in any other program than the state system.

MAINLY TAXES AND THEIR EFFECTS ON UNEMPLOYMENT AND OUTSOURCING

I want all federal elections to be limited & funded by the federal treasury. No corporate donations allowed; no individual donations allowed. People, or corporations for that matter would be allowed to donate to the US Treasury to defray the cost of federal elections, but not to individual candidates. Hence, an even playing field for all.

Let's subject Congress to the same norms which exist for ordinary citizens. Variations of , requesting recipients in favor to circulate. Perhaps SignOn.org can advance the topic.

Recall of Gov. Scott for his Incompetence lack of concern for the state of Florida and it's people.
