  • Simply Medicare: Save Prescription Drug Costs
    Every year millions of Medicare beneficiaries must change Medicare Part D prescription drug plan to find a plan that will cover their prescribed medications and determine what their projected cost will be for each plan researched. The beneficiary is often given a new prescription during the year, only to discover their current plan will not cover the new prescription. They either return to their doctor and ask for a different medication (often not as effective) or sometimes go without the necessary medication growing more seriously ill, increasing their overall medical costs.

  • Remove the trash fee from our water bill!
    Recently, our water bills have increased because the city has added a $11 trash. Maxine Johnson is a plantiff in a suit against St. Louis City disputing the fees. Under the Hancock Amendment, the city should have asked the voters to approve an increase in revenue via a Proposition on an election ballot. Please support us in bringing this situation to our elected officials.

  • Expose the Dent in Congress
    In running for his very first office, State Rep, Charlie Dent promised, if elected, the $7,000.00 annual increase PA. House just approved would all go to local charities. He won - no one got a cent! People who courteously stto0d their grond to talk to them, got sent to jail, and heavily fined. Their crime? They wanted to meet with their Congressman

  • Congresswoman Lynn Jenkins: protect Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare
    The looming sequester mandated by the inability of US Congress to reach a deal on spending cuts and raising tax revenue by at least 1 trillion will raise everyone's income taxes and reduce spending across the board by far more than 1 trillion. That will send the country's economy into recession again. Congress must act soon and come up with a plan by years end.

  • Lower the deficit
    My petition is about our representatives in congress. I feel as though they should be paid by the hour since they take more vacations than anyone in America. Also I feel they should stop their cost of living raises they get every year until they do the job we sent them there to do.

  • Senator Casey: No Cuts to Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid - End the Bush Tax Cuts for the T...
    Over the past decade, most Americans have seen their income plummet and many have lost jobs and fallen into poverty. Meanwhile, the wealth of the top 2% has skyrocketed, thanks, in large part, to huge tax cuts. Enough! It's time for the top 2% to pay their fair share.

  • To much time given to nonviolent offenders in the USA
    Why is the federal government giving life sentences to drug dealers? Jails were made for violent offenders. When is this going to stop? My son is facing life for selling drugs. Once these guys get out, they can't get a job because they are felons. Come on USA, we've got to do better by our people. The USA is creating monsters in these jails.
