Abolish the Electoral CollegeYou may be surprised to know that we have no constitutional right to vote for the President of the U.S. This is because the Founders created the Electoral College, originally designed to protect an ill informed public from choosing a person unfit for the office. In 2000 and again in 2016, the person the people chose to be president by overwhelming majorities in the popular vote, did not become president. This should concern everyone who cares about our democracy. It will take some doing to amend the Constitution, but let's get started. Let your representatives know you want one-person-one-vote.57 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pam Walton

Senators: Please Meet With Us!Efforts to communicate via phone, email and regular mail have resulted in backlogs and no responses back from our Senators. A "town hall meeting" or other public forum would be an excellent opportunity for constituents to voice concerns, and then hear about Senator's plans to address those concerns.56 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Martha McKenna

Repeal the Law That Prevents Medicare From Negotiating Drug PricesThe outrageous rise in the price of the Epipen caused a national scandal. My husband and I are over seventy now and the few medications we need are available as generics, but we have friends who take expensive medications. The prices of some cancer medications force people to make unacceptable choices between death and financial ruin.297 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Stephanie Kraft and David Kraft, MD

Town Hall MeetingI, as well as many other Alaskans, have questions and concerns about the policies and goals of the new administration. Many of us have been reaching out to our representatives through phone, email, and snail mail, but a face-to-face meeting would be so much more meaningful. There is a sense of urgency right now when there is so much uncertainty about our future. We are relying on our members of congress to listen to our concerns and represent us authentically. Senator Lisa Murkowski has proven herself to be genuinely interested in our concerns and have our best interests at heart. We would really appreciate the opportunity to have a meeting at this time.59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Anna Fleming

Sen. Heller: Hold a public town hall in NevadaIt has been impossible to reach Senator Heller's office for the past several weeks. Las Vegas and other Nevada voters have questions and concerns about important votes and statements that the senator has recently made. We demand to have our voices heard in a public forum. The senator's recent invitation-only "telephone town hall" was not sufficient.2,158 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Nikki Levy

Universal Access To Congressional E-Mail AddressesIn this highly charged political environment, it is imperative (if not, at least extremely logical) that there should be a federal law mandating that a public e-mail address for each member of Congress is posted directly on the Congress.gov website. The Parliaments of Canada, the UK, and Ireland each have such mandatory listings. It is currently quite difficult to contact a member of Congress via e-mail if you are not in their district. It is no longer enough at this time in our history to allow these representatives to hide from all but their direct constituents. We ALL pay for their salaries, offices, and staff and many of their votes affect ALL of the nation. Why then should we not ALL be able to reach out to them to let them know our individual opinions? Let's join our English-speaking allies and allow the citizens of this nation to freely and easily contact ALL members of our Congress63 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Stuart
