All non profit organizations should be audited by the IRS annually. The Tea Party shpuld not be an exception.

Since Congress gets paid regardless of what they do or don't do, and since the Republicans are intent on spending the salaries paid by tax dollars on such nonsense as attempting a 37th repeal of the Affordable Health Care Act rather than working together to move the country forward, they should instead be paid hourly, like most Americans, and not be paid if they do not show up and actually work. Boycotting votes by not showing up to work, would get any other American fired. Why are we, the people, allowing their behavior when we wouldn't allow it of other employees?

Drag racing for high schools , collage and others. If you can get the kids to the track , then we can almost eliminate street racing and put them into a controlled area and turn the experience into positive learning . Or we can keep turning our eyes away and saying oh good got away with another race tonight , but that other kid isn't so lucky I think he is getting man slaughter when he hit the car at the intersection.

Congress should legislate, not perpetually investigate

Barbara Rothweiler, Ph.D.,a licensed counselor and principal of St Pius X School in New Mexico, is refusing to allow a student "Damien" to walk as a "male" at his graduation because he has "female" marked on his birth certificate -- even though his teachers, friends, and family all recognize and interact with him as a male. Forcing one to express a gender identity that is contrary to what one chooses to epxress is a clear violation of the ethics and professional license she holds, and has potential for causing long-lasting, and potentially irreparable psychological damage to Damien. As such, she should be disciplined by the New Mexico Counseling and Therapy Practice Board, as well as each professional organization in which she holds membership for violating ethical and professional requirements of her license by refusing to recognize a St. Pius X's student's gender identity. Even though all his classmates, teachers, and family know Damian as a male. the St Pius X administration says that because he has "female" marked on his birth certificate -- despite the fact that he is now legally Damian and not Brandi -- he still must walk in a girl's cap and gown for graduation. See Rothweiler's bio: https://www.saintpiusx.com/page.aspx?pid=417 See the Phychotherapists' oath: http://www.americanpsychotherapy.com/about/oath/ This action is clearly a violation of her professional license, the counseling field - in general, and can potentially cause irreparable harm to this student.

We support repealing the "right-to-work" law in the state of Michigan. We believe Michigan should have labor-friendly laws on their books. Once this petition is completed, it will be delivered to the governor and both the Senate and the House of Representatives in the state of Michigan.

This congress is already going down on history as the most ineffectual elected body ever elected. Tell them all it is time to accomplish something positive! If they can't truly represent us then ask them to leave...be sure they know you will NOT vote for any who are not doing their jobs!

During sequestration, the law should be changed and Sr. Exec. Staff should not receive bonuses on top of salaries salaries that range from $119,000 to $179,000.

While we are using fresh water resources to create electric energy we could in some extremely concerned areas like California create electricity with salt water. If you look at satellite pictures of the Las Vegas area through a thirty year period thirty years ago we see that lake mead is three times bigger than las Vegas. Now the city is three times bigger than lake mead. Water has become a precious resource. We should not waste it to produce electricity if we can use salt water.

Then why did he say in phone call he thought about putting in trouble makers with protesters. He also states that the reason he did not is because it was not advantageous to him. I am glad but does this mean he is going to allow the signing at the Capitol. Or is he thinking about pulling his citizenship?

It's one of the most outrageous special interest provisions in years. Written anonymously, the Monsanto Protection Act allows corporations to sell genetically-modified seeds even when federal courts have blocked them from doing so. Think about that: We have a process for making sure that genetically-modified seeds aren’t sold, planted and grown until we know that they don’t pose a threat to other crops or to humans. The Monsanto Protection Act overrides that process. It lets Monsanto and others ignore a court order designed to protect other farmers, the environment, and human health. That's just wrong. And even worse, the Monsanto Protection Act was passed in secret, stuffed quietly into the budget bill that averted a government shutdown. That's why I've proposed an amendment to the Farm Bill that would repeal the Monsanto Protection Act. Please join me - and demand a vote in the U.S. Senate that would end this outrageous special interest override of judicial decisions. Senator Jeff Merkley
