Our representative democracy is broken. The only way to fix it is to amend the Constitution and overturn Citizens United. There are only two ways to amend the Constitution: 1. Through Congress 2. Through our State Legislatures via an Article V Convention. Congress could not pass something as basic and reasonable as the Disclose Act (disclosing who is giving money to candidates). Since Congress is the source of the problem we cannot trust them to solve the problem. That leaves only one option: The Article V Convention called by State Legislatures. State Legislators have the power to compel Congress to call a convention to fix our democracy and restore the republic. Any amendment has to be ratified by 38 states whether proposed by Congress or a convention. Texas can be the first state to call for an Article V Convention to restore our representative democracy by passing HJR-94 and its Senate companion resolution.

When the United States was first founded the Federal Government had two jobs; maintaining roads and national defense. This country was founded on the right for each individual to have the right to practice and express their beliefs freely as long as it doesn't infringe upon the right of others to do the same. The current policies and laws the Federal Government impose on Americans are a disgrace to the foundation of this country. It's time for the people to take their power back!

As the owner of a local tattoo parlor in Dexter, I have had several parents come in wanting their teens to recieve tattoos by professional Artists. Because the State of Maine has a No one under the age 18 shall receive tattoos policy. I see alot of Teens going to people's homes to have tattoos done. Not only are these home environments unclean and unsterile, these teens are getting infectious diseases such as; Mercer, Hepatitis, and even HIV. Tattoos are the "IN Thing" for teens this day and age. Lets change the law to "Teens 16 yrs. of age and older may recieve a tattoo by a professional, licensed parlor, so as long as their parents consent and sign to it." Let's keep our teens from getting un-necessary diseases that could affect their future health.
