• The US Mail is Not For Sale!
    Our goal is to organize our employees, concerned citizens and organizations to rally together, letting the post office know that the Pee Dee region needs a strongmail service, like we’ve had for hundreds of years. We also want to let them know that putting up Postal Contract Units in stores with employees with no previous postal service training and no background checks—unlike our USPS employees—is unacceptable. This is about the security and the timely delivery of our mail.

  • Atlantic City's property taxes are already high enough!

  • We Demand Answers on Iraq
    Today’s crisis in Iraq has its origins in the Bush administration's disastrous decision to launch a war of choice in 2003. As we continue to live with the consequences of those mistakes, we must recognize the hard reality that lasting and sustainable peace in Iraq can only be achieved with an Iraqi-led political solution. As President Obama has said, there is no viable military solution to this crisis. That is why the recent bombing airstrikes launched in Iraq by U.S. military forces -- and the calls by some in Congress to escalate further -- are troubling. The risks of mission creep, unintended consequences, and incremental escalation are just too high -- and after more than a decade of conflict, America cannot afford another Iraq war. In June, the House passed a bill -- with overwhelming bipartisan support -- that sends a strong message to the president to seek congressional authorization for further military action in Iraq. Congress must demand answers and engage the American people in a debate. This is the time to ask the hard questions and get the answers -- before any further U.S. commitments to taking military action in Iraq. The American people look forward to hearing answers to the difficult but necessary questions.

  • End Discrimination Against Independent Voters
    Discrimination is rampant against American citizens who conscientiously object to the political parties and party bosses who rule our nation. Independent voters who place loyalty to our nation above loyalty to a political party should have an equal opportunity to participate in our democratic republic.

  • Corporate Tax Evasion is Treason
    Corporations in the U.S. enjoy many a huge number of benefits and protections by being here from the safety provided by our military to quality roads that allow them to easily transport their products to a consumer system to purchase those products to an educated labor force. It is not fair for them to avoid paying for some share of the costs of all these (and many more) benefits. We have all been affected by this skyrocketing trend as the middle class share of the tax burden continues to grow and the middle class to shrink. This is a crime against our nation.

  • Gov Brown: Keep teaching standards high
    Teachers teaching core subjects should be required to have Bachelor's degrees. As a parent of a child in California public schools, I join other parents and teachers concerned that: Lowering teaching standards compromises quality programs for students; This sets a dangerous precedent to de-professionalize teaching by allowing substitutes by non-professional teachers; The Commission has created confusion and has compromised the safety and education of students by authorizing unqualified personnel to teach core academic subject areas; These actions fly in the face of the California legislature's requirement of a Bachelor's degree to teach academic subjects.
