• Stop continuing deceit and corruption in San Bernardino County
    Measure Q disguises career politicians true intent to give themselves more hefty salary raises and other benefits while claiming permanent cap and transparency. Measure Q gives San Bernardino County politicians guaranteed perks at tax payers expese. 73 000 San Bernardino County tax payers approved a measure ( Measure R ) to reasonably compensate county politicians, so politicians responded by forcing deceptive Measure Q on the ballot to confuse voters claiming "more accountability - smaller government" on street signs

  • Ban plastic shopping bags
    The absurd amount of plastic we consume to hold anything from a pack of gum to doubled bags of groceries is untenable. There's no reason for it except the low cost to the stores. There was no plastic option not so long ago. Plastic does not devolve–it will far outlive the human species. We need to get rid of as much as we can. People buy hundreds of dollars worth of groceries at Costco with no bags at all. It's time to have political will and do the right thing.

  • Impose a Moratorium on Fracking in Illinois
    At this time the government of Illinois have begun negotiations with the oil and gas industry to allow horizontal hydraulic fracking in southern Illinois. Hundreds of towns, counties and even states have banned fracking due to the impact of hundreds of deadly chemicals penetrating the water, air and soil of areas in which fracking occurs. Research has linked fracking to many human and animal cancers and illnesses. Fracking is a direct attack on the health and well being of the people and environment of southern Illinois by big industry. Please help support this local people's struggle.

  • Save Big Bird and His Friends
    Picked up by Bold Progressives: Cecilia Crawford, an 8 year old from Alabama wrote Mitt Romney telling him Sesame St was her "favorite show on earth...when she grows up and marries she wants her kids to watch it". Come on, moms and dads, let Mr. Romney know that Sesame Street and all PBS is off the chopping block. Thanks, Pat Bentrup (mother of 5; gmother of 6)

  • MITT'S TAX RETURNS
    American public still wants to know more about Gov Romney's tax returns. He may be as much a criminal as our governor Rick Scott was---and he got elected.

  • Retiree's health care fund should not opt out of the Affordable Care Act
    Here in Michigan, if you are a retiree in the public school or other public service jobs, the fund for health care has chosen to not accept the terms of the Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare. This means our adult children cannot be insured up to age 26 unless they are full time students and are claimed on our Federal Tax 1040's. I want the retiree system to adopt the Affordable Care Act. If it is fair for Americans, it should be fair for all of us public employees also.

  • Tell FDA to supervise compound labs
    With 47 people in 7 states getting meningitis from fungus growing in steroids produced in non-FDA supervised pharmacy labs, it is time for the FDA to take over supervision of those compound-producing laboratories. Add your voice to encourage the FDA to protect us from bad drugs.

  • Car Manufacturers Must Allow US Buyers European Fuel Economy
    In Europe, vehicles get up to 78 mpg (Imperial Gallon.)...that's about 65 mpg US gallons. Ford exports vehicles to Europe with that type of fuel economy. VW imports to the US are currently not allowed to get 65mpg. This affects all of our citizens. Big oil has been in control too long.
