• Tell the Senate to Fix the Filibuster
    Over the next few days, the fate of filibuster reform hangs in the balance. Let’s tell the leaders of the U.S. Senate that real reform includes a full talking filibuster. Other proposals out there don’t go far enough, and won’t change the culture of obstruction that paralyzes the Senate. Your grassroots support today is critical. Sign the petition: Tell the Senate to fix the filibuster. ~ Senator Jeff Merkley

  • Abolish Selective Service
    I got annoyed by the hypocrisy and outrage of registering guns compared to registering men 18-25 for Selective Service. The law is antiquated and needs to be abolished or suspended.

  • 28th Ammendment
    Let's put an end to Congress making laws to suit their own agenda instead of what is for the best and highest good for all concerned. I am a widow raising a child. My survivor benefits ended when she turned 16 instead of 18 (what is used to be a few years ago). Her survivor benefits will end when she is 18 instead of through college (also what it used to be a few years ago). My situation is minor compared to what others have lost due to the benefits Congress has seen fit to unduly grant themselves.

  • Keep Guns Out of the Wrong Hands & Preventing Illegal Gun Trafficking
    The recent gun violence that killed six year old Aliyah Shell in Little Village and 7 year old Heaven Sutton on the Westside as well as the massacres in the Aurora, Colorado movie theater and against the Sikh Community in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, and the tragedy at Sandy Hook elementary demonstrates that we must stop the senseless killings by fire arms, and have better control over the firearms that enter our communities.

  • Make DC a State: Pass the New Columbia Admission Act
    I recently moved to New York City after living in Washington, DC for the better part of two decades. I have never thought it was fair that DC residents are denied the right of full voting representation in Congress. Now that I live in New York City and have the privilege of voting representation in Congress, I consider it my duty to lobby my elected representatives to extend my rights to my brothers and sisters in DC.

  • Tell North Carolina Republican Walter Jones, Jr. NO ON H.R.6706 — the Fair Debt Collection Practi...
    Walter Jones wants to amend the Fair Debt Collections Practices act to favor the Banks, the bill sought to change the definition of Lawyers and their firms so that lawyers not called debt collectors. This proposed change does not help homeowners because in addition debt collectors as it is are lawyers who sometimes buy debt and then turn to collect it. This bill is a sham and the Representative may be working for the Banks on this one. see link for details http://mariokenny.me/2013/01/17/bill-to-amend-fdcpa-for-attorneys-introduced-in-u-s-house/

  • Premiere Radio Networks: Suspend Rush Limbaugh for senseless mocking of children killed by guns
    This petition is about having Rush Limbaugh either suspended or forced to apologize for mocking children killed by guns in Connecticut. As a resident of Connecticut, and someone who lost a school friend to this tragedy, this is not nor will it ever be acceptable to make fun of a tragedy such as this one.
