  • Protect the Power Grid
    My community, Bremerton, has never heard about the very real risk of a grid collapse, which no one would want to live through, period. Thus, it has absolutely no plans whatsoever for surviving, let alone preparing for, a possible grid-down situation. Securing the grid from lethal damage must be top priority to protect ourselves and our children, as no one can survive without the grid. Even food and water will be inaccessible without it.

  • Negotiate Medicare Prices
    Both political parties and the media seem to avoid the topic of negotiated Medicare prescription drug prices. This is an area offering the greatest savings but both parties and the mainstream media receive too much money from the drug companies to actively talk about it let alone take action.

  • We want concealed carry in Illinois
    Illinois is the last state in the Union to allow its citizens to partake in their Constitutional right to carry a concealed firearm. After the Chicago hand gun ban, violence steadily rose. In several states with concealed carry laws, violent crimes have decreased. Illinois citizens, with the proper training, should be allowed to carry.

  • END THE H-1B VISA PROGRAM NOW.
    I've been outsourced overseas by a corporation that does not care about quality, only about saving a few bucks on their next annual report. This has happened to many people I know and could happen to you next. Look up "H1B" on Wikipedia for much more background.

  • We Need More American Jobs
    I have seen way to many jobs go over seas and we loose money and employees everytime a company chooses to close their American company and open it in places like China. If enough of us stand together we might just be able to get more jobs back in the United States.

  • Reject Grover Norquist's anti-tax pledge
    We've recently heard from folks in Arizona who believe that Senator Jeff Flake needs to publicly reject Grover Norquist's anti-tax pledge, which has created gridlock in Congress and prevents passing any responsible fiscal policy to grow the economy. Tell Senator Flake to send Norquist packing, ending his choke hold on legislation.

  • creative funding for wildlife and habitat preservation
    I am concerned that with today's economy the preservation of wildlife and conservation of the habitat and the charities on which they demand are under trememdous stress and I was looking for an idea that would bring them more funding. It seems like requiring sports teems who bennefit form using animals as logos should be willing to share some of their profits with these groups

  • Save Social Security
    The "Fiscal Cliff" fear mongers hate Social Security. Without Social Security I would probably be homeless.
