  • Pass the Violence Against Women Act with the provision that Protects Native American Women
    There is a loophole in current law that prevents tribal authorities, who have jurisdiction over crimes committed on Indian territory by Indians, from having any authority over non-Indian male abusers. That’s despite the fact that non-Indian men account for an estimated 80 percent of rapes of Indian women, and that the astronomical rate of abuse of Indian women is well documented by the federal government. This is wrong. And there is a provision in the Violence against Women Act that would change this. But according to a Huffington Post report, it’s proving the last sticking point for House Republican leadership. The version of the bill passed by the House did not include the expanded protections for Native, immigrant and LGBT victims, Please sign this to urge the house to pass the Senate version of the bill, which does include these provisions.

  • More Action
    I have grown up in Chicago and have watched my once wonderful neighborhood turn into something of a nightmare due to gangs and crime. People want to call the cops but they never come. I feel if the CPD starts reaching out to residents more and maybe talk to them, people will call the police a whole lot more. It is also up to us, the citizens, to make a difference. See something, say something.

  • Hold the banking executives criminally liable
    We are all affected by the criminal activities of the banking industry. People are defrauded and they lose their retirement, their homes, and their hope for the future and faith in the entire system. When bankers act criminally they must be prosecuted for fraud, drug laundering and any other crime.

    Colorado residents and all Americans have been overwhelmed by individuals who possess military/law enforcement type weapons to terrorize and murder innocent people in schools, movie theaters and malls.

  • Major Pete Buttigieg, Superior Court, Indiana Bar Association: Injustice in the court system
    I had a previous civil case in Superior Court in South Bend, Indiana regarding a large financial investment I made with a business owner in this state. On May 12, 2010 my Attorney, Rod Sniadecki, was disbarred just before I was to seek a judgement. Due to the action of the disbarrment, the amount of time it took to retrieve my case file from another attorney, and the Client's Financial Assistance Fund in Indianapolis, Indiana to evaluate my application and relay their decision that I had been denied assistance, took me past the Statue of Limitations; therefore; ruining my civil case. This should never happen to another citizen because of the incompetence to act in a timely manner and follow up accordingly. I have been personally affected by this financially and emotionally. Through no fault of my own I have dealt with this mess for years! I was just told recently by a local attorney that I have no legal recourse. No one has to be accountable? This is absurd. Where is the justice? This kind of negligence by the court system and the other parties involved is unacceptable. This must be addressed and stopped before this happens to another innocent victim of this community!

  • President Obama – Respect Voters’ Marijuana Initiatives
    WHEREAS 18 states and the District of Columbia have passed laws legalizing the use of cannabis when recommended by a physician, and Whereas Colorado and Washington in 2012 passed laws legalizing the recreational use of cannabis, and Whereas over 825,000 Americans are caught up in the criminal justice system every year for marijuana law violations, and Whereas the United States spends over $20 billion a year enforcing marijuana prohibition laws, and Whereas thousands of people are murdered every year involving the smuggling of illegal drugs into the United States and marijuana accounts for over half of these illegal drugs, and Whereas polls show overwhelming support for the medicinal use of cannabis and majority support for legalization of marijuana, and Whereas marijuana prohibition laws are racially enforced with a far larger percentage of African-Americans and Hispanics convicted and imprisoned for marijuana prohibition offenses than their white counterparts even though marijuana use in their communities is no more than in white communities, and Whereas college students lose their college grants and scholarships if found to be using marijuana, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Riverside County Democratic Central Committee requests: President Obama to allow the newly enacted marijuana legalization laws in Colorado and Washington to go into effect with no federal interference, and President Obama to end the Department of Justice interference and raids by federal agencies in states with medical marijuana laws, and A comprehensive study be immediately undertaken to produce recommendations for reform of our nation’s marijuana prohibition laws.
