Steve King is using Twitter to campaign on tax payers' time. This isn't just outrageous -- it's a direct violation of House ethical standards. For example, on Wednesday, May 30th, Steve King sent a tweet from the house floor calling out his opponent, Christie Vilsack by name. Congressional ethical standards clearly state that "House rooms and offices are not to be used for events that are campaign or political in nature." Congress put these important regulations in place to protect our tax dollars from being wasted on non-stop political campaigning. But Steve King doesn't really seem to care. In fact, this is just the latest example in a long string of violations. Last winter, Steve King used his Congressional Twitter account to bully Rep. Shelia Jackson while she was speaking at a congressional debate. From his Congressional Twitter account he tweeted that he was so bored by her remarks that he was killing time by surfing the internet. This action wasn't just outrageous; it was embarrassing for voters across Iowa. And it doesn't stop there. Just recently it was revealed that a few months ago, Steve King retweeted a racist joke that was quickly deleted and covered it up. But lucky for us, Congress states that, "The misuse of the funds and other resources that the House of Representatives entrusts to Members for the conduct of official House business is a very serious matter. Depending on the circumstances, such conduct may result in not only disciplinary action by the House, but also criminal prosecution." It's time the House Committee on Ethics investigate Rep. Steve King. If he is violating these provisions in public, who knows what he's doing behind closed doors.

I think it is the worst show of a lack of respect for servicemen & women to have Taps played on a boom box and no Military Honor Guard to render a 21-gun salute. You give your all in the name of freedom and democracy and all you get at your grave side is a boom box? How utterly disrespectful!!!

A proposed bill under consideration by the Michigan State legislature would change the current law that prohibits people with concealed weapons permits to carry their hand guns in churches, bars, schools, sports arenas, etc. Please call on your state senator and representative to keep gun free zones in Michigan.

The airlines have gotten away with charging us extra for checking bags and you are now hearing more and more reports of how people properties are being stolen.

We need a loan modification program immediately available to the millions of Americans with under water mortgages from any size bank and not just the "too big to fail" institutions. Locking these homeowners into a low fixed interest rate would help stem foreclosures, keep Americans in their homes, put more cash in their pockets and go a long way in helping to refuel the economy. If a fair and balanced principal reduction formula could be worked out, even better. The banks got bailed out with our money and it's time that Main Street got a piece of the pie.
