• President Obama: Appoint Everyone
    There are hundreds of high level open positions in the federal government, and Republican judges just moved to gut the president's recess appointment power. The first step in fighting back is for President Obama to make qualified appointments to fill every vacancy. No major federal job should sit unfilled for more than 6 months.

  • BRGA Grants
    These grants were given for Katrina victims to rebuild or defray blighted properties; however, though appreciated, most could not get the most from the monies because it was never enough to rebuild and, most definitely, not enough, to maintain the property. Conclusion: these grants should be forgiven.

  • Scott Walker & Republican State Legislators: No Gerrymandering the Wisconsin Electoral College Votes
    The Republican Party has decided to gerrymander electoral college votes in key states to steal the presidential election, Wisconsin is one of those identified states. Tell Wisconsin State Legislator and Governor Scott Walker that Wisconsin citizens do not want Wisconsin Electoral College votes to be gerrymandered in favor of any political party, especially the Republican Party. The will of the people must prevail and be upheld, every vote should be counted in our presidential elections and the winner should take all per our constitution!

  • Birth Control or Paid Maternity Leave
    The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 allows for unpaid leave up to 12 weeks. An amendment could integrate this with the Affordable care act allowing for a choice between supporting one of two programs. If a business or religious institution opts out of providing birth control through their medical coverage they should provide full paid maternity leave.

  • Governor Snyder: Categorically Reject Rep. Pete Lund's Plan to Rig Future Elections
    Republicans in Michigan's Legislature are attempting to change the way Michigan's electoral votes are cast to reflect the district lines they drew to confine Democrats to as few districts as possible. We must preserve our democratic elections, so they continue to accurately reflect the will of the people.

  • Resolving the Pro-Life/Pro-Choice Issue
    A stance on the pro-life / pro-choice debates that frees our nation then to be devoted to issues that can more readily be solved like jobs and the economy. THIS IS PRO-LABOR LEGISLATION, think of it mechanically as like a flywheel governor on the free trade process to keep it from spinning out-of-control.

  • Just Say No to Changing Electoral College Vote Allocation
    My petition is about urging our state leadership to not change the rules regarding the proposed changes in the way that electoral college votes in Ohio would be allocated from the current, long standing historical version of "Winner Take All" and instead changing the rules so that we allocate the votes based on Congressional districts.
