• Senators Corker and Alexander: Support Immigration Reform
    We need Senator Corker and Senator Alexander to support immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million immigrants currently living in the United States without documentation. Many of these immigrants have lived in this country for more than a decade and have come to America to seek a better life for their families. They are Americans-in-waiting who are ready to fulfill the requirements of our citizenship process: to study English, pay taxes, and continue to contribute to our economy and community. We need a new approach to immigration that keeps families together and provides a path to citizenship.

  • Washington Legislature: Stop the Coal Trains and Barges
    Proposed Coal Exports would bring a huge influx of train and barge traffic to the Puget Sound and all cities along it, threatening air and water quality, marine and human health. The resulting traffic congestion and compromised rescue and fire operations could potentially be devastating. What happened to Washington State's pledge to be a leader in Green Energy?

  • Change Gonna Come, and Battle Lines Are Drawn
    The governor of NC is telling those of us who are rural, especially the African Americans, members of the 7 indigenous Nations and women, "We do not care about you. You do not have enough money to matter." As a grass roots leader in Western North Carolina, I will not stop fighting and I sure as hell won't stop standing up for MY sisters, brothers and constituents.

  • STOP SEQUESTRATION NOW!
    Senseless entitlement cuts that are not immediately necessary. This stupid sequestration will severely damage our economy and destroy the lives of too many people in our country to include our school children just to appease hateful, greedy, seperatist that disrespects our President and our citizens with needs that matter.

  • Save the 2012 North Carolina Energy Conservation Code
    NC House Bill 201 introduced on March 5th seeks to repeal the 2012 energy conservation code and reinstate the 2009 energy code. As a home energy auditor working in the weatherization and building science industry, I know what a difference can be made when our homes and places of work are built with energy efficiency as a priority. The Energy Conservation Code put into effect in 2012 marked a great improvement in the minimum acceptable energy efficiency standards for buildings in North Carolina. Buildings are responsible for nearly half of the energy usage in the US, and cause more pollution than our cars. Better energy codes mean lower monthly operating costs for new home buyers and a decreased risk of loan default. Please join me in making sure that our state does not move backwards on this important issue.

  • Raise Legal Age for Tobacco Purchase
    Even though the legal age for tobacco purchase in Florida is 18, my son and his friends had no problem making purchases at 15 and 16. Raising the legal age could actually save lives by not giving young people the opportunity to purchase this highly addictive product.

  • Education
    I am a public school teacher in Detroit. I have a degree in children with Cognitive Impairments. I was laid off because my principal (who was never in my room) gave me low grade on my bogus evaluation. Support teachers and stay out of our paychecks and our business.

  • Stopping aerial spraying over Boulder County
    The annual spraying of 20 billion tons of aluminum, barium, strontium, mercury, and other toxic, carcinogenic, and biohazardous material over cities everywhere (including daily in Boulder County and surrounding areas) is already having devastating effects on humans, the soil, our forests, and most other life forms. The short term effects have shown to be causing me to have respiratory illnesses frequently as a result, as have most people I know-- but the long term effects are deeper, such as Alzheimer's, neurological disorders, and cancer. If the public were adequately informed on this topic most would take appropriate action to put an immediate stop to these destructive activities.

  • Steve Sanetti & the NSSF: Support Comprehensive Background Checks
    The National Shooting Sports Foundation is located in Newtown, CT. Even after the devastating loss of innocent life right here in their own town, this organization refuses to support federal universal background checks. The NSSF is the #2 Gun Lobby in the US. The vast majority of Americans are in favor of federal legislation requiring universal background checks that would close the "gun show loophole" in every state, as well as other "private" transactions that allow people to obtain firearms without a check. The NSSF is fighting against such a change. We demand the NSSF tell Congress and Newtown that it has had a change of heart and supports universal background check legislation.
