  • Face the Drug War's Failure
    Shall we forever entice terrorists, cartels and gangs to seek enormous profits so easily generated by defying laws against a select few plant products?

  • Remove Rick Perry
    With only 33% of the whole Texas vote Perry won as our governor. I am 23 years old and believe that with more than half the vote we can show America how we really feel about Rick Perry and his "success in Texas".

  • American Hemp: The 28th Amendment
    America was founded at a time when hemp was a common commodity, yet profoundly important. So important in fact that the first three Presidents of the United States praised hemp and encouraged it's growth throughout the states. We are petitioning to have hemp cultivation recognized as the valuable industry it is and amended into the Constitution to never be Prohibited to future generations.

  • Constitutional Amendment mandating public financing of all elections
    With the Citizens United Supreme Court decision, unlimited amounts of special interest money will be spent to influence elections. Too many of our elected representatives are beholden to their big campaign donors. All elections need to be publicly financed to ensure that our elected representatives do what's in the best interests of their constituents and the country rather than what's in the best interests of their big campaign donors. Only a constitutional amendment mandating public financing of all elections will guarantee that the U.S. Is a true constitutional democracy.

  • Lawmakers will lose pay if the nations budget or our dept crisis isn't passed by the due date.
    Just like california law Prop 25 ; California lawmakers will start losing their pay if they don't complete a balanced budget. "We The People" as workers don't do our job where we work at "we dont get paid" so why should the lawmakes of this country be any different?

  • Separation of church and state
    The politics surrounding the definition of "marriage", causes significant diversion from critical issues. The institution of marriage pre-dates the US constitution and hence the government should not be involved in defining it. All that the government needs, is to define when two people belong to the same "household unit".

  • Nationalize the Banking Industry
    Why are all our homes banked owned? Why do we borrow from "commercial" banks for our home loans at a much higher rate of interest than what the banks pay to the Fed? Why do we have commercial banks acting as "middle men" to access our country's money supply for profit and abuse?

  • No More Privileged Status for Politicians
    The political system in the United States has created a "privileged class" of politicians, both in the Senate & Congress, who earn far more than is justifiable and receive special benefits and healthcare, even after the end of their careers. "We the People" are supposed to dictate the course of government in this country, not a privileged minority. With all men & women created equal, Senators and Congressmen should be subject to the same healthcare and benefits as working class Americans and, in this time of economic austerity, receive a significant pay-cut putting them on par with the American working class average salary. After all, our taxes pay for their privileges, and We The People can no longer afford it.

  • In-State Control of State Initiatives
    In recent years, individuals, PACs, and corporations based outside of California, state regulations and California Citizens' influences have run and funded initiatives to change the laws and constitution of California. These groups base their initiatives on what is best for their agendas as opposed to what may be better for the actual Citizens of our state. Their money does not go to creating nor expanding employment in California, and often hurts our Citizenry in favor of these outside entities' interests. It should be required that any group, corporation, organization, or individuals who proposes and funds California Initiatives should originate, be duly licensed and operate as California Based.
