US Senator and Congressman Term limitsI would like to see all Us Senators and Congressmen have 8 years as a term limit. That will allow for new people to get into the office. It will allow for the United States to be run more efficiently with out all the corruption that we currently have in government offices.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kim Stanley

Standardize Credit Card Payment Cutoff TimesCredit issuers have arbitrarily set cutoff times on one's payment due date that can result in much ill-gotten revenue that might otherwise be stimulating the U.S. economy. For example, Citi Bank cuts off at 5:00 p.m. EST. I paid my bill on the due date but at 6:00 p.m. CST; and, as a result, I was charged a $20 late fee and $1.01 "interest". It's easy to forget that a particular card has an unusual cut off time, like that of a gas company who's cutoff time is 3:00 pm. PST.30 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John S Brookes

Expand Yosemite National Park for its 150th BirthdayWe have an opportunity this year to expand Yosemite National Park by hundreds of acres, just in time for the 150th anniversary of Yosemite’s original Land Grant. This expansion will restore beautiful forest land that was stripped from the park and given to loggers, miners and the railroad industry long ago. Only Congress has the power to expand Yosemite National Park: With the leadership of preservation champions like Sen. Diane Feinstein, we can get this done in time for Yosemite’s 150th birthday.333 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Daniel Jacobson

SALARY ACCOUNTABILITY FOR CONGRESSWe have all been affected by the inability of Congress and Senate to do anything.. we are always approaching finiancial cliffs because they refused to do their elected jobs. If we refused to do our jobs we would be disiplined by our employers, wrote up, funds withheld until the tasks were completed or fired. The Congress and Senate are looking for ways to cut spending-- then I know how this can be done-- If we have an inaffective Congress/Senate their pensions, and pay should be targeted. For example, they lose staff, cars, paid vacations,etc. , and all this "much to do about nothing" would hopefully cease.. We are paying them to do a job and they are not performing. Americans need recourse-- let's affect their pay their incomes like in the real world.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Frances Ingram

Pennsylvania Pensions for retired school employeesMy husband and I are both former school employees and were promised a decent pension after retirement. At this point, we have not received a COLA for ten years. Medical expenses and many other items have increased in price so we cannot purchase what we used to. In the meantime the legislature have seemed to enjoy their COLA but have done nothing to help their former teachers, etc. How about looking into this to see what can be done.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Creta Jacobs
