• SOCIAL SECURITY CALLED 'FEDERAL BENEFIT PAYMENT'/ENTITLEMENT!
    The government refers to our Social Security as a Federal Benefit Payment. This isn't a benefit it's earned income! http://www.snopes.com/politics/taxes/benefit.asp

  • Stand Strong on the Fiscal Curve
    Senator Harkin, we urge you to stand up for us and make sure any fiscal deal ends the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% AND protects Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits from any cuts. This is what we voted for in November, and we expect you, our elected official, to vote the same way."

  • Non-Violent Felonies
    My daughter has taken the blame for money being stolen at a local court clerk's office & now has a non-violent felony on her record; she is to complete probation until restitution is paid in full, but a non-violent felony will be forever burned into her record, but if the records of non-violent felonies could be expunged off the person records after a few years after completion of probation or parole and completion of any/all fines or restitutions have been paid then it could save my daughter's rights to a new start!

  • Stop Republican Obstructionism, Start working with the President
    For the last two years of our President has been stone walled by Congress. Corporate and big money influeced republicans have not done "The Will Of The People". We have had an election that has given our President a mandate. Start working to do what you were elected to do, "The Will Of The People".

  • Criminalize BigPharma’s Off-Label Distribution of Dangerous Antipsychotics to Elderly in Nursing ...
    Every day tens of thousands of Americans in nursing homes are prescribed antipsychotics to “treat” Alzheimer’s and other dementias, although in most cases the antipsychotics lack FDA approval for treating dementia, have no therapeutic value for that purpose, and pose great risks for the patient, including untreated pain, confusion, and early death. Many of these drugs are ultimately paid for by taxpayer dollars through Medicare and Medicaid, feeding the obscene profits of pharmaceutical companies like Abbott Laboratories and Eli Lilly, both of whom were convicted of promoting antipsychotics for dementia.

  • Senator Alexander, Reject the Norquist Pledge
    The upcoming "fiscal cliff" affects us all. It is only prudent that our elected representatives thoughtfully consider every option in order to do what is best.

  • Ask Speaker Boehner to stop posturing.
    Please ask Speaker Boehner to stop posturing before further ruining the credit rating of our country. The majority of this great nation supports raising the tax rate on earnings over $250,000. Most understand that the rate stays where it is until they earn OVER the $250,000 mark and then a small increase kicks in. This is not a huge burden for them. It will be huge for me and millions of other people making way less than $50,000 per year if the tax cuts expire.
