    My petition is about asking Congress to not be above those they serve. I am asking them to cut salaries, health care and retirement benefits and many of their day to day perks.

  • Senator Al Franken: Protect Social Security
    Social Security is the most successful social program in US history. It is completely self funded and is not in any major crisis. It does not not add to the budget deficit and therefore should be off the table in any political negotiations to address the deficit. Sen. Franken has a duty to his constituents to protect Social Security from those who want to de-fund and privatize it.

  • Protecting our children from assault weapons
    I own two pre-schools and have two little granddaughters the age of the Sandy Hook victims. I am outraged at the NRA's proposal to put armed guards in every school instead of common sense gun regulation. This petition is an attempt to take their position to the ultimate level.

  • REPEAL THE SECOND AMENDMENT
    My home was the target of a 16 year old with a high powered rifle. Fortunately, no one was home. Bullets came through the living room window and out through the back wall of the house.

I feel if they have children here they should be able to stay and work to take care of the family they have here and see to it they have a place to live and food to eat. People fus because their are to many on welfer but they are send home the men that keep the women off of it. I feel that in order to make things better we must first make it rite.

  • Respect for our President
    I am annoyed that a myraid of media outlets refer to our President as Mr. Obama! He is President Obama and in 4 years he will be Former President Obama. It is incredibly disrespectful for our media to ever refer to him as Mr. Obama! I've NEVER heard media outlets refer to ANY president as Mr. It is appalling!

  • Social Security Benefit Cuts
    Social security benefits have been paid by the workforce and their employers for years and the government has mismanaged these funds to the extent that they say they are now going to have to reduce benefits to keep the program solvent. Why is it always the people who can least afford a "Pay" cut, the ones who have to bail out the nation because of reckless political spending.
