  • End unregulated corporate giving in politics
    We have too much money in politics already but at least you can usually tell where it came from. I believe the Supreme Court decision is ludicrous. I believe it has NO history outside of the Courts. They legislated and that's wrong.

  • Campaign finance reform
    Right now corporations and wealthy individuals can provide enough funding to cause a candidate of their choice to be elected to public office. Politicians are essentially bribed by wealthy constituents or corporations so they don't work for the people who elected them when they get into office. They work for the special interests of the people or corporations who funded their campaigns. There should also be oversight and limits placed on lobbyists in Washington DC regarding their ability to spend money on politicians.

  • Justice for crimes against the people
    The so called "PATRIOT ACT" goes against everything this country stands for and the founding fathers visions, the Bill of Rights and we believe it to be an act of treason. The Declairation of Independence used some strong language. Strong language is needed now. Sacrificing our Liberty for a small measure of safety, we deserve neither. The PATRIOT ACT should be repealed and it's authors held accountable for this ball and chain.

  • Time to Renounce Allegiance to Lobbyist Grover Norquist
    Some members of Congress (both the House and Senate) have signed a pledge to lobbyist Grover Norquist--a pledge about not raising taxes under any circumstances. The result has been virtual road bock to the development of any reasonable solutions to many of our nation's economic problems. Let's tell the ones who have signed the pledge that we expect them to renounce their allegiance to Grover Norquist.

  • Congressional Responsibility
    Warren Buffett, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling: "I could end the deficit in 5 minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election"
