Candidates are not getting fair treatment because of the current party rules which allow Super Delegates to subvert democracy at their own whim. The New Hampshire distribution of delegates is the perfect example. It could affect the outcome of the Presidential race.

Primary candidates are elected based on the number of delegates they garner. New Hampshire has 24 “pledged” delegates, which are allotted based on the popular vote. Based on Bernie's stunning upset last night, Bernie was allotted 13 pledged delegates, Hillary was allotted 9, and 2 remain unallotted. But under the Democratic National Committee rules, NH also has 8 “superdelegates,” which are allotted by the DNC. Each superdelegate caries the same weight as each pledged delegate. Notwithstanding Bernie's "yuuuge" victory, the DNC allotted all 8 NH superdelgates to Hillary. This is not the first such ploy by the DNC to back Hillary and defeat Bernie. First, the DNC tried to stack the deck in Hillary's favor by limiting the number of debates and then scheduling them for obscure times in order reduce Bernie's outreach to an audience to whom he was largely unknown. Next, the DNC locked Bernie out of its own voter database, ostensibly due to the overzealousness of a member of team Bernie's, who exploited the weak security provided by the database company. This was entirely inappropriate on the part of the DNC, and Bernie filed a lawsuit to reverse it, within 24 hours of which, his database access was restored. Please join me in sending a message to the DNC: "Enough is enough!" Stop trying to rig the Democratic primary. The DNC is undermining the very principles of fairness and democracy for which the Democratic party is supposed to stand.

There's too much money in politics and we aim to fix that.

Superdelegates are a group of Democratic elected officials and other prominent party leaders who are free to vote for whomever they want, independent of the will of the voters. That means that despite Bernie Sanders winning New Hampshire by a margin of over 20 percentage points, superdelegates from the state could override the will of the voters.

Bernie Sanders is on a roll among actual voters, with a blowout victory in New Hampshire (22 points!) and a virtual tie in Iowa. When Bernie is on the ballot - he can win. But in a close race, Superdelegates can snatch that victory away. Only by pushing back against this possibility can we ensure that the candidate WE vote for becomes the nominee.

On behalf of Warren Buffet's NV Energy, Nevada Public Utility Commission voted unanimously in favor of a new solar tariff structure that will destroy the Nevada solar market, one of the fastest-growing markets in the country. The changes will apply retroactively to all net-metered solar customers.

The lives and futures of thousands of children have been jeopardized. Since I feel personally affected when a child on another continent is hungry, I am even more impacted by this atrocity in my own country.

Bernie won New Hampshire. And by a hair, Hillary won Iowa. In other words, there's a long Democratic primary ahead, possibly fought all the way to the convention. But there's a problem: There are 712 superdelegates—made up of Democratic elected officials and other prominent party leaders—who have the power to tip the scales, potentially shifting the vote at the convention to whomever they choose. This process is undemocratic and fundamentally unfair to Democratic primary voters. In 2008, when the primary looked like it could boil down to superdelegates, MoveOn launched a similar campaign calling on the superdelegates to hold off making their decisions until the voters had spoken. Now, as we face a similarly contested primary, it's critical that we speak out again for the integrity of our voting process. Democracy only works when the votes of the people—not the decision of a small number of elites—are what determines the outcome of elections.

Every family deserves to know what’s in our food, our children’s toys and other consumer products. And here in Oregon, we consistently lead the nation with health-conscious consumer protection laws. That’s why I support Oregon’s ability to regulate toxic chemicals – but a proposal in Congress could prevent Oregon from fulfilling our responsibility to protect public health. Take action: tell Congress to allow Oregon to regulate toxic chemicals! Oregonians should be allowed to protect our environment and our families from exposure to chemicals used by manufacturers, importers, and chemical processors. Please join me and add your name today – allow Oregon to defend against toxic chemicals!

H1640/S1551 will give cities and towns the option of asking voters for funding needed to improve public transportation. These funds could be used to pay for operating late night bus service so that employment is more accessible to people, such as myself.

Fracking is an extreme oil and gas drilling practice that threatens our air and drinking water. And right now, there’s a terrible pro-fracking bill making its way through the Florida Legislature. It already passed the House, so it’s critical that we stop this bill in the Senate. If this bill passes, it will start the process of establishing regulations to allow fracking to go forward in Florida. It would take away the rights of Florida communities to enact local protections against fracking. And it would prevent fracking chemicals from being publicly disclosed. To protect Florida from the devastation of fracking, we must stop this bill.

 Sign the petition to tell your Florida state senator to vote 'NO' on Senate Bill 318 and keep fracking out of the Sunshine State.

As a resident of New York (City & State), I am personally affected by the current condition of our democracy. The issue of money in politics and the corporate strangle on our democracy is an intolerable crisis, but also an incredible opportunity. When impacted communities UNITE for change, real progress is not only possible but impossible to deny!
