Protect Rights of Homeowners in Domestic ViolenceAs a homeowner, I once was kicked out of my own home (for at least 3 months) due to accusation of assault charges brought against me by by son's former girlfriend, whom was staying with us rent free & out of the goodness of my heart. I thought it unjust & unfair that even though, there was no rental or lease agreement & her name wasn't on the mortgage that something like this be allowed to happen. I now realize this occurs often and think it unfair to homeowners and we have rights as homeowners.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Doris

Means-Testing For Congressional PensionsThe term "means-testing" has been cropping up in discussions of Social Security reform. In keeping with the spirit of bi-partisan "reform", perhaps there should also be "means-testing" for Congressional Pensions. To show sincerity, let's start with "means-testing" for the Congressional Pensions of former Senators Alan Simpson and Pete Domenici. Both Simpson and Domenici co-chaired commissions on Federal Debt Reduction. Such a sacrifice by them would be truly inspiring for the masses.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vito Danelli

No Raise for CongressThe 112th Congress is the most unproductive group since the 1940s but they are slated to receive pay raises beginning March 27, 2013. Since the start of the recession in 2008 most Americans have not received a pay raise, or have been furloughed. Congress has only passed 219 bills into law and can't keep America from falling off the "fiscal cliff" but they are getting raises? I think not.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dionne C. Clemons

Gov't Officials must have their Benefits RevampedElected Federal officials have access to quality healthcare at affordable prices or paid in full by the taxpayers. They also receive a full pension after serving only one term. Yet the american public works for 20 years for a pension that is not guaranteed by the Gov't and is at the sole discretion of the employers. Elected officials must pay into Social security, just like the american public, and not have that contribution stopped when they earn $250,000 or more. If they can't balance a budget, or pass laws in a timely fashion they should forfeit their benefits.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Judy

End Foreign Fossil Fuel SubsidiesA fossil fuel subsidy is any government action that lowers the cost of fossil fuel energy production, raises the price received by energy producers or lowers the price paid by consumers. In the United States, credible estimates of taxpayer money invested in these subsidies range from $10 billion to $52 billion annually, and that's only from the United States itself. World oil subsidies have been credibly estimated at $409 billion in 2010. While money is poured into foreign countries to protect their oil supplies, funding for sustainable and home-grown fuels is minimal to none. The foreign oil industry is a finite industry. Oil is becoming more and more expensive to produce as costs for production, finding, and obtaining oil are rising. This will only cause a greater need for subsidies and more taxpayer money. Limiting the United States' dependence on foreign oils by putting subsidy funds toward development of dependable and sustainable fuels, will allow our economy as well as the environment, to also become dependable and sustainable.87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bradley Frieze

No pay for Members of CongressMembers of Congress should not be paid until they perform their basic job responsbilies such as passing a budget. By not passing the budget long-term research projects cannot be started, recent graduates cannot be hired to work on such projects, businesses cannot plan for future expansion and hiring, the economy will not contunue to slowly improve.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chloe Bear
