  • Time to Humble Congress
    Congress gets 100% of their salary for retirement after only one term in office. Their children get student loan forgiveness. It's unconstitutional for for them to give themselves what other government employess don't get. This petetion is to bring them down to the level of everyone else in society.

  • REFORM THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE
    Every fourth November, after almost two years of campaign hype and money, over 90 million Americans vote for the presidential candidates. Then, in the middle of December, the president and vice president of the United States are really elected by the votes of only 538 citizens -- the "electors" of the Electoral College. The electors are made up of 12 States out of 50. Do you want your state represented?

  • Term Limits for Supreme Court Justices
    The length of time a supreme court justice can serve. It should not be a lifetime appointment. These people are not always as neutral about all subjects as they try to appear to be. A 12 year limit should be set. Lifetime apointments can become a very abusive when these people know they cannot loose their jobs due to inapproiate decisions bases on politics and personal bias

  • Every vote counts
    If we removed the electoral college process, every person's vote would be as important as any other person's. Currently only certain states matter in the presidential elections. Those of us in "gimme" states never see the candidates and feel our vote is not important.

  • Congressional Reform Act of 2012
    We need to fix Washington so we can fix our country. The problem is that we have too many career politicians who care more about keeping their jobs than solving problems.

  • End the Electoral College.
    This is an archaic method, hugely expensive and entirely unfair. Designed hundreds of years ago for a tiny, rural and widely dispersed population, it negates many of the personal popular votes.

  • Political insider trading
    Congress for years has apparently excepted itself from criminal laws relating to insider trading and placed itself above the law. There is absolutely no justifiable reason why Congress should not be subject to the same laws as the rest of society. This creates a double standard and leads to corruption and undue influence by a special interest group.

  • Shorten political campaigns
    National political campaigns begin a year or more prior to elections, leaving most voters weary of ads and news reports, bored by debates, tuned out to the issues and aggravated by candidates. Limiting campaigning time to four months prior to the election would allow candidates to focus on current issues and still provide plenty of time for voters to cast informed votes.

  • Warren Buffet's idea to fix congress
    If this was put in place, the problems with money running our congress would go away. We could actually have a congress for the people and not a congress for congress and the rich and corporations. Easy fix!
