• Demand Direct Democracy in America!
    For almost two hundred years, the Swiss Confederation has operated as a direct democracy. The people have the power to put any issue up for a nationwide referendum or challenge any law passed by parliament. We believe that the American people should have this right as well. Congress is drowning in a quagmire of corruption and constantly caddying to the interests of the corporate and political elite. By giving the power of democracy directly to the people we can overcome these challenges and move America into a new prosperous age.

  • President Obama: Remove age restrictions on Over-the-Counter-Emergency-Contraception
    If a girl is old enough to get pregnant, she is old enough to use this emergency contraceptive. You do not have the right to impose your beliefs on others. There is no medical reason to support the restriction of access to anyone of any age. Unless you can show a very good reason for this restriction, please step out of the way of something women have the right to decide for themselves, even 12 yr old's.

  • Up With Desalination
    My community has suffered through one dry season after another while in other parts of the country there are floods and heavy snows. Our government leaders should be trying to solve the problems brought on by the drought by using technology at hand.

  • Quick Path to Citizenship (7 years or less) for all aspiring Americans
    Humane iimmigration reform. I am friends with many aspiring Americans and observe daily how much they have to offer the US. It makes economic sense because it costs $23,000 to deport each person.

  • STOP THE TRANS-PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP FREE TRADE AGREEMENT
    This is the ONE WORLD ORDER--- multinational corporate WORLD- power grab currently being negotiated, in secret, --for fast-tracking through Congress before the American people catch on to it. This will result in loss of power of individual countries to regulate corporations, protect the environment, food safety, the social safety net, and workers' rights.

  • Ban "Terminator Seeds"
    Terminator Seeds are genetically engineered seeds that have been gene spliced to be "sterile." If sterile seeds are released into the environment, they could cross-contaminate other plants making them sterile too. Without the ability of plants to produce seeds, it could alter the environment as we know it; making it "slient!" There will be no food for the animals, birds, bees or even us. Everything would become dependent on corporations to provide seeds for us to grow our own food!
