  • Extend the Middle Class Tax Cuts now!
    We have all been watching the battle against President Obama for the past four years as the Republican House refused to work with him to settle the Middle Class Tax Cuts. It is now time for Congress to live up to its responsibily and act for the good of the nation before we hit the Fiscal Cliff. The Middle Class cannot afford an additional $3500 tax bill. .

  • National Reform of Voting Procedures
    When I see people having to wait hours to vote I am stunned. As long as a political partisan is in charge of voting rules the system will be compromised to disenfranchise whomever the political partisan deems opposed to their particular political agenda.

  • Stop Credit Bureau Reporting, it is Discriminatory and Biased.
    Credit Bureau Reporting stops you from being hired. Credit Bureau Reporting does not check if reports received are correct before posting. You cannot call credit bureaus directly and they are not consumer friendly.

  • Obama: Stand tight for raising taxes on the 1%
    Don't be intimidated by the Republicans during the negotiations over the fiscal cliff by giving into their demands for no tax increases for the super wealthy. The House Republicans will sacrifice the country to keep their wealthy friends in the driver seat.

  • Unvictimize IRS refund owners
    IRS now withholds payment of taxpayers overpaid income taxes (aka tax refunds) when the taxpayer has been the victim of identity theft via the filing of false returns by unknown third parties. IRS further refuses to release a copy of the taxpayer's tax returns filed under the name and SSN of the taxpayer once a fraud affidavit has been filed by the real taxpayer. The money belongs to the taxpayer, not the IRS. This petition urges Congress to pass legislation whereby IRS is prohibited from withholding tax refunds to taxpayers who provide proof of being the real taxpayer and authorizes all such victims to obtain and any all tax returns filed under their names and SSNs.

  • NO to Grand Bargain Yes to Robin Hood tax
    Reducing the benefits of the safety net, Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid is the wrong way to go. Deficit is "not our fault," the blame belongs to the Banks and Wall Street. Start taxing financial, stock and commodity transactions. We can start reducing a bloated Defenive budget, billions wasted on outdated weapons which Generals tell us we don't need. Over $80 billion keeping US Troops in Europe and the Far East. Who are we protecting againist? Bring them home and put them to work on cleaning up the Infrasturcture. That way you will not need to "privitize the commonwealth". Most of the billionaires who realize the problem say they will pay more taxes. If a single billionaire can waste $70 million on partisan elections he can pay more taxes for the protection of civilization.

  • Republican Congress...Stop voting AGAINST all legislation and work with President Obama!!!
    Congress has repeatedly refused to pass legislation that is in the best interest of this country. Over the last 4 years, Republicans have voted against the Jobs Act and just about every piece of legislation the President proposed. Republican Senator Mitch McConnell revealed the GOP's true intent: "The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president." Well, their plan to sabotage the President didn't work, so now, we need to tell them to do what is in the best interest of this country...work together, so this country can move FORWARD!!!
