No One Should Be Targeted by the IRS Because of Their Political ViewsWe are Americans from every political persuasion. We are united in our belief that no individual or organization in this country should ever be targeted by the Internal Revenue Service, or any other agency of government, solely because of their political views. We urge President Obama to order a complete and transparent investigation of the IRS and to take appropriate legal action against anyone involved in an attempt to selectively target organizations because of their political views. Please sign our petition below.5,321 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Michael Morrill

No Dark Money, No Dark VotesJust as there's dark money in politics, there's dark votes. We need the votes out of the shadows and in the light. Both are forms of dark, non-transparent power. The House took a shadow vote and claimed there are not enough to pass HF 276 (SF 17) so no one had to go on record. Last Friday, May 10, the Minnesota House put off indefinitely voting on a bill that would have made Minnesota the 14th state to support a Constitutional amendment that corporations are not people and money is not speech. https://twitter.com/commoncausemn/status/332938707638288384 This petition will go to Minnesota Governor, Speaker of the House, and your Representative. HF 276: https://www.revisor.mn.gov/bills/bill.php?b=House&f=HF276&ssn=0&y=2013 2 representatives standing in the way: Jean Wagenius (District 63B) Phone: 651-296-4200 Rick Hansen (District 52A) Phone: 651-296-6828 Update Tue. 5/14: Talked to Sen. Tom Bakk at the Capitol who said they had already passed it. They did on 5/2. So all we need to do is get the House to vote on it and the Governor can sign it. https://www.revisor.mn.gov/bills/bill.php?f=SF17&y=2013&ssn=0&b=senate98 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Henry Corp
