  • Immigration & Same Sex Couples
    My partner is Australian. She cannot apply for residency in the US based on our relationship. We are therefore forced to spend longer periods of time out of my country than in it. Thousands of same sex couples face the same dilemma. A dilemma not shared by straight couples whose marriages are recognized federally.

  • Reduce Class Size at Brown Elementary School
    We are deeply concerned about the rising class size at Brown Elementary School. Larger class size means less individualized attention for our students. We need to find a way to reduce class size at Brown for the 2013-14 school year, especially for the rising first grade class.

  • WI Act 10 Anticollective Bargaining Law
    Wisconsin Act 10 essentially eliminates collective bargaining for general public employees, but allows public safety employees to be exempt. The lack of the right to bargain does not preclude the existance of a right to be treated evanhandedly as employees. The employer cannot have it both ways. When corporations are deemed to be people for the purpose of campaign contributions (US Supremem Court Citizens United case), unions should be deemed to be people too. It should be a constitutional right to assemble into a union and be able to bargain with your employer, public OR private. .

  • End the War on Drugs
    The war on drugs ruins the lives of millions of nonviolent drug offenders every day. It disproportionately affects lower income and minority communities, stigmatizes drug users as criminals, ruins their employment chances upon reentering society and forces the cost of the system to maintain these people on the rest of society.

  • Let The Bush Tax Cuts Expire
    We are all affected by the policy of fighting two wars on a "credit card" while the richest 2% not only profited from the war in many cases, but also didn't have to pay their fair share of taxes on that income.

  • NCAA: Investigate Notre Dame's Shameful Sex Scandal
    Sexual misconduct and rape perpetrated by student athletes on the campuses of NCAA member Universities is out of control. After the decades of cover up at Penn State, and this latest incident swept under the rug by Notre Dame which led to the suicide of a student, it's long past the point where the NCAA must take action. One would think they'd have learned to be proactive after Penn State, but obviously they haven't.

  • Congressman Pompeo: Tax the rich & protect social services
    Congress faces a fiscal choice—not a "cliff"—about whether to end tax cuts for the rich or cut vital programs and delay tax extensions for working and middle class people. The GOP is holding us hostage again, and we could slide back into a recession if they win. We will deliver these petitions to Congressman Mike Pompeo on Dec 10 as part of the national day of action on the fiscal showdown.
