• FIN Committee: Please hold a hearing and pass SB737's 36% interest rate cap on Payday loans.
    Too many hardworking Hawaii families are stuck in the debt cycle of Payday loans. Eighteen states have already capped the interest rate on these loans at 36% or less or made them illegal altogether. Our families deserve protections from the Payday industry, too.

  • Restrict travel to Indiana using public funds for nonessential business
    I would like to see this bill rewritten or repealed as it is offensive to many Americans. This is a protest of Indiana's recently-passed bill that allows businesses to discriminate against people whose lifestyle is different than the said establishment. This is a very bad precedent and should be sent back to the dark ages.

  • Boycott the Bigots
    I am revulsed by the rise of bigotry and reminded of past eras in other countries which will come to mind quickly if you make the obvious analogies.

  • Ban travel to Indiana
    We cannot return to the bigotry of the early 1960's when officials met civil rights activists with the vilest of behavior. As nation we must decide that we are better than that.

  • Ban Ann Arbor public employees from traveling to Indiana
    As a proud American and member of my community in Ann Arbor, MI, I am personally offended with this legislation and I believe that our Country and the State of Indiana can do better. It is only when you are on the receiving end of discrimination that you feel its toll on your everyday life. As Americans we must stand together against Indiana and end legislative forms of oppression like the Freedom Restoration Act.

  • School Bonds, Not Giveaways to Big Oil
    Our state's priorities must be re-aligned. Ex-Governor Parnell's oil-tax giveaway is devastating our schools and teachers. This must be reconciled!

  • Tell Mayor Nutter: Don't Protect Comcast!
    Philadelphia is about to begin a once-in-a-generation negotiation with our biggest corporate citizen, Comcast. This deal could define our access to communications, and Comcast’s accountability to our city, for the next 15 years.

  • Support Public Funding of Elections in Maryland
    Maryland’s Fair Campaign Financing Fund, our only state-wide program for public funding of elections, proved its worth in the last election – giving a voice to both Delegate Mizeur and Governor Hogan. But the tax check-off, which funded this program through the decades, has been eradicated. The fund now has just over $1 million available, which would not be sufficient to provide a qualifying candidate full grant funds in the 2018 elections.

  • NY Needs REAL Ethics Reform Now
    There are now 32 state legislators who have been indicted or have left office due to criminal or ethical issues since 2000. Incremental change in the budget, negotiated in secrecy, is no substitute for real comprehensive ethics and campaign finance reform. Call on our leaders to tackle this crisis with real reform now.
