• American Legislative Exchange Council
    It's time "ALEC" is treated like the lobbyist it is and not just a non-profit organization who says they are a bipartisan think tank that works for not only the good of their state but also the good of the United States Government. ALEC should have to pay taxes like any other organization since they do wine and dine some of our finest people in the our legislative branches, large corporations and etc. Bill Moyer had an expose' revealing this organization on Public Television and it just made me angry how the people we send to government to represent us seem to be there for the ride.

  • Rep. Cedric Richmond: Say "Yes" to Marriage Equality
    It is time for our Democratic Senators and Representatives to come out and support marriage equality--to stand up for equal rights and get on the right side of history. Now, we are down to only eighteen House Democrats and three Senate Democrats who have not yet publically come out in support of marriage equality. Representative Cedric Richmond is one of them. Please sign this petition to urge him to do the right thing.

  • No More Lobbists
    Stop Special interest groups from influencing our government with large amounts of money on issues that only affect them. Most of the lobbyists are influencing our elected officials and convincing them to appoint special interest groups by underhanded bribery. They promise to provide financial support and money even if their requests are not for the good of all.

  • The People's Power Agenda
    For far too long lawmakers in Washington have ignored the will of the “People” they were elected to represent and instead have catered to the whims and demands of corporations, lobbyists and the richest 1%.
