I Stand With Elizabeth Warren: America's Students Deserve the Same Loan Rates as Big Banks.We've all heard the stories or lived the hardship ourselves: young Americans trying to move our economy and country forward, but being saddled with so much student loan debt it's nearly impossible. Now, if Congress doesn't act, our already-too-high student loan rate of 3.4% is about to *double* to 6.8% - while banks keep their sweet 0.75% deal. ENOUGH. Students deserve the same preferential interest rates that the Big Banks get. Let's get this done.2,846 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by The Other 98%

A Complete Street for Foster AvenueFoster Avenue is becoming a speedway to the expressways and enforcing the speed limits, stopping at red lights, and ticketing passing on the right isn't happening. Two lanes of traffic in each direction are not necessary. Traffic should be reduced to one lane in each direction, with a center divider for pedestrian crossing. A stop light should be added at Avers Avenue. Children are crossing Foster between and among Eugene Field Park and Gompers Park.168 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Robert Kastigar

Political Reform (Constitutional Reminder)I would like to petition Congress and the President to read in public, the Constitution of the United States. Congress should read it in the chambers and the president should read it as a public address. My hope is that this will remind them of what our Constitution contains.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Von Hall

Members of congress are immune from US laws.It is appalling that members of congress are not subject to the same laws as the rest of us. Their salary cannot be cut, they can trade stocks on legislation that will be passed and they have dream health care. We have to stop THEIR wastes. We end up suffering. They never do.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Zina Greene

Divergent Thinkingimplement divergent thinking; this is like the opposite of standardization, which how we have been tought to think since pre-K. To implement divergent thinking is to bring out each individual's talents and thought processes. By doing this we are also valuing each individual more, as oppsed to lumping them into one pile and teaching them all to think one one way about a scenario, an issue or any other general problem that we might be facing as a society.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Riley Flynn

Don't shorten- Enron chief executive Jeffrey Skilling's-prison sentence.Public Justice-We are taught from childhood that "right is right and wrong is wrong" and that there are consequences as a result of our actions. It is in the public's interest that criminals-whether blue collar or white collar are treated equally under the law, and are not given special consideration/treatment based on their financial means or financial misdeeds.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by D.
