• Reinstate the Water Fee Exemption for NFPs
    In January 2012, Chicago City Council removed the existing water fee exemption for not-for-profit organizations (NFPs). The Interfaith Coalition to Restore the Water Fee Exemption for Religious Institutions is working to restore this accommodation for qualifying NFPs to allow NFPs to continue to provide services to their community.

  • Iran and Saudi Arabia: Stop Squabbling
    Iran and Saudi Arabia are neighbors and have no need to fight. Sunni and Shiite should celebrate their differences, not kill or hate each other. De-escalate the conflict. Share the Gulf.

  • Gray Wolves Need Your Help Today TAKE ACTION!!!!
    Under the mistaken belief that wolves have recovered and can be turned over to state management, some in Congress are vocally supporting legislation to remove protections for wolves under the Endangered Species Act.

  • Veto the bills to allow horse slaughter plants and export of meat
    This something dear to my heart. Horses are companion animals not livestock. The reason they are listed as livestock is for tax purposes.I do not want Oklahoma to be known as the horse slaughter state.

  • Stop changing official state time twice a year
    Much of the U.S. adjust its official twice per year, one hour forward in early March and one hour back in late September. Hawaii and Arizona do not participate in this process. California should opt out also. Such a change is the cause of much personal stress and inconvenience to great numbers of people, resulting in illnesses and loss of productivity at the work place. It is time to stop this foolishness.

  • Switch to Daylight Savings Time Permanently
    The practice of changing from standard time to daylight savings time has become outdated. The current system extends daylight savings time from the second Sunday of March until the first Sunday of November, meaning standard time is used for approximately only 4 months each year. A recent poll showed 73% of people were in favor of extending daylight savings time year round (http://blog.al.com/wire/2013/03/florida_considers_extending_da.html). It is time to adopt daylight savings time permanently.

  • Stop the Time Change
    Twice a year, we go through resetting all the clocks and re-adjusting our biology. This is a throw back to another time and is grossly inefficient and a waste of effort and money. The extra light in the evening seems to be popular, so just to pick something, let's just stay on DST.
