$120 Billion worth of student loans are already in default. Total FEDERAL debt is at $956 billion. Even more is owed privately. The country and our young people are drowning in student debt. The government bailed out banks and Wall Street. It should bail out its citizens.

My name is Rick McCorkle, and I'm a University of Delaware Alumnus (M.S. in Applied Ocean Science, Class of 2001) and professional fish and wildlife biologist. With fossil fuel corporations banking on exploiting 5 times the amount of carbon considered safe to burn without exceeding a 2-degree C global temperature increase (see http://math.350.org/ ), universities should not be investing in their business plans for wrecking the planet! Please join me in asking the University of Delaware's Board of Trustees to DIVEST from Fossil Fuel Corporations.

Al Jazeera has won many awards for objective reporting of international news, an area of which Americans are generally ill-informed. The recent purchase of Current TV by Qatar makes it possible for Americans to obtain international news that is currently missing from the airwaves in the US.

This amendment is design to restore to both h houses of congress the original frame work that founding fathers intended when they created the constitution. That is; "working" representatives who do the nation's business when in D.C. and then return to their jobs after they've conducted their duly elected obligations to the nation

Boycotting Papa John's Pizza until he publicly embraces Obamacare.

My mother is elderly and stands to have what she lives on affected by the government. Stop spending 43% of federal budget on outsiders, take care of our own.

Congress has exempted themselves from sexual harassment laws and the recently adopted healthcare reform, just to name a few.

Drivers failing to pay missed tolls within the seven day grace period can lead to high tollway fines. $5 in missed tolls can potentially create $500 in tollway fines over the course of a year. Failing to pay these fines can lead to a suspended license without notification to the driver. Please provide drivers with the ability to search and pay for outstanding fines using their license plate number to avoid their license from being suspended.

Public Service within our Democratic Process was never intended to become a lifetime career beholden to the fat cats who keep returning them to office. Never before in American History has the need for Term Limit legislation been more obvious. Let Grassroots America take back Democracy.

I learn about science, math, society, agriculture, history, EVERY element imaginable; all this I learn in a garden. We need to encourage the love of the earth, appreciate where our food comes from, help our future generations live GREEN.

Why are contributions limited to ONLY the first $110,000. of earnings? All my life (61 years of working) (and since the inception of Medicare of course) 100 percent of my earnings were subject to Medicare contributions. My school teacher daughter's TOTAL earnings are subject to Medicare contributions! Why doesn't anyone exposé this very large tax loophole limited to the rich?

If you can believe it, one Congressman from New Jersey has said he may vote against the bulk of federal aid to rebuild his own state next week. Scott Garrett said he may vote against the rest of the New Jersey delegation and try to block the majority of federal aid for disaster victims citing 'wasteful spending.' Rebuilding roads and bridges. Helping families get back in their homes to start putting their lives back together. That's hardly waste. If Garrett were alone, that would be bad enough. But he’s joined by a Tea Party caucus that would rather see families suffer than admit that we actually have obligations to each other. So every vote will count. The House will vote on the Sandy relief package on Tuesday, January 15. Sign our emergency petition to Rep. Garrett not to block relief for Hurricane Sandy victims.
