Our Congressmen are supposed to represent their constituents. By voting "No" on a Senate bill proposing very watered down gun regulations measures--closing background check loopholes and creating a Commission to study and report on causes of mass violence, among other things--these democratic senators have willfully ignored the 90% of citizens supporting such measures as a common sense step. Instead, they seem to have caved to the NRA and its threats of its financial power. Tell the DSCC that we will no longer contribute to its coffers until it publicly withdraws support for Mark Begich (Alaska), Mark Pryor (Arkansas), Max Baucus (Montana), and Heidi Heitkamp (North Dakota).

I am Immigrant enjoying been an American citizen for 39 years.

Billions of dollars are spent and thousands of Americans are arrested each year for a victimless crime which is becoming increasingly accepted by the public.

Failure to pass the watered down gun amendment when 90% of the public was in favor is unexplainable and disgusting. The so called representatives of the people should be all censured NOW.

Stand in support of immigration reform with a speedy, clear pathway to citizenship for all 11 million aspiring Americans.

END XL OIL PIPLINE TOXIC & DEADLY

State Senator Richard Woodbury (independent) has introduced an official resolution calling on the U.S. Congress "to pass a constitutional amendment to reverse the ruling of the United States Supreme Court in Citizens United V. Federal Election Commission." Citizens United was the infamous decision that said corporations have the same "free speech" rights as people and that has allowed unlimited campaign spending by corporations and individuals, drowning out the voices of regular people. Twelve states have now officially called for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to overturn the Citizens United decision. It's time for Maine to join them. Ask your State Senator and State Representative to co-sponsor Senator Woodbury's resolution. And be sure to join us at 10 AM on Monday, April 29th, at the State House in Augusta, to present this petition to the legislature.

Keystone XL would carry 830,000 barrels a day of the world's dirtiest, most dangerous oil, putting American drinking water at risk and accelerating climate change. President Obama has the power to stop this disaster before it starts.

If people were charged 10 cents for a plastic and /or Paper bag ,they would start bringing their own bags. This would help our landfills, because it takes a long time for one Plastic bag to decompose and most people only use their plastic bags one time. We cut down mill approximately 14 million trees, each year for paper bags. They have a successful program in California and in Hawaii, why not North Carolina ?

Last Friday 1130 AM Twin Cities News Talk radio host Bob Davis told the Sandy Hook victims to "go to hell" for supporting sensible gun control. This outrageous behavior should bring about a swift response from all Americans concerned with saving the lives of our youth.

I'M DISABLED & FEEL IT'S UNFAIR FOR PRESIDENT O'BAMA TO PUT ANYMORE FINANCIAL OR MENTAL STRESS ON THE ELDERLY TO SUPPORT THE RICH/DEFEICT!!!

90% of the american people favor some form of gun control or at least a vote on the issue. If the congress won't vote on an issue so favored by the people lets not buy them lunch or haircuts. Lets save money by making them either do their job or at least pay for some of the freebees.
