Oneida County Board: Increase Citizen Involvement, Change your Meeting TimesCurrently the Oneida County (WI) Board and its subcommittees meet during the daytime, sometimes as early as 9:30 a.m. and only on workdays. This not only severely restricts the opportunity for input but also limits or even eliminates the opportunity to hear directly from our elected leaders. Further, it limits opportunities for those who wish to run for County Board positions. Consequently the voice of the citizen is limited strictly to those available during daytime hours--those who happen to be retired, semi-retired, or who have flexible hours.363 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Concerned Citizens of Oneida County

America: Fix Congress!No matter the political affiliations, the American people are sick of the inequitable political system that exists today. The fix is simple: Control the Lobby industry, which robs the American people of a responsive government. End the filibuster, a tactic that is useless to the American people. Finally, allow simple majority rule in congress and let's get to work on the issues at hand!17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ron Rios

End unregulated corporate giving in politicsWe 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.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ruth Schimelpfenig

Campaign finance reformRight 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.31 of 100 SignaturesCreated by beth valdez
