Pledge for LegislatorsAlmost all Republican legislators are coerced to sign a pledge to vote no on any tax legislation. Our tax code needs to be fluid so it can meet changing needs of our country, and legislators need to work together so that it is fair. Any financial crisis needs to be solved with a combination of refined strategies for revenue AND reduced spending. Most republicans know are fully aware of this but cannot vote intelligently because of the pledge they signed for Grover Norquist. It is crippling our governments ability to function intelligently on behalf of society. See 60 Minutes' piece on Grover Norquist. It's appalling.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chris Cunningham

Congress: Hold Generic Drug Manufacturers Liable for Injuries to ConsumersThe Supreme Court has ruled (2011) that consumers who are injured from taking generic drugs (70% - 80% of prescriptions) cannot sue for injuries if their sole theory of liability is that the warning label was inadequate. The Doctrine of Preemption prevents them from being sued and they are not required to conduct clinical trials on drugs. My daughter took a generic version of Chlomid, a fertility pill which is linked to birth defects and as a result, my granddaughter (now age 5) was born with heart defects and other complications. She has undergone two open heart surgeries and will need more. There is no legal recourse because she was given a generic drug by the pharmacist; a decision my daughter had no voice in.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by carla sommers

Stop our dependence on foreign oil now!Our dependence on foreign fuel has involved us in multiple foreign wars and threatens the very nature of our society. Stop our dependence on foreign fuel now and free our society and economy from the horrible drain that such monitoring, policing, crippling investment causes. Develop environmentally and economically viable alternative fuels that would allow us to break this downward spiraling behavior of having to depend often times hostile foreign concerns.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tom Sherman

Ticking time bomb - driving while distractedRecently, 4 young women were killed in a motor vehicle accident related to driving while distracted. These deaths are part of 35,000 annual fatalities and one half million bodily injuries occuring on our roads each year. Many of these accidents are the results of distracted driving from cell phone use and texting. We would like President Obama to make this a DNC platform issue. It is our hope that he would pledge to reduce road fatalities by half during his next four year term.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by nathan wright

Stop Continuous Election CycleElections in the United States should be limited to five (5) months total. Three (3) months in the Spring and two (2) months in the Fall (September, October). This will allow politicians to concentrate on their job and not on the constant need to fund raise. It will also stop the incessant political noise.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Edward Vaughn

Remove toxic cleaners from California's schoolsTraditional cleaners contain ingredients linked to asthma, cancer, reproductive toxicity, hormone disruption, neurotoxicity, and other negative effects. These cleaning agents contaminate the air, surfaces, and dust that surround our children, teachers, and school staff every day. I have been chemically sensitive my entire life, and have physically suffered through many days cooped up in a chemically laden classroom, both as a student and teacher. I hope to give my children a healthier environment in which to grow and learn.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jana Peeters

Women's Equality Day, 08/26/71Passed several decades ago when women, especially young women, were actively engaged in feminist issues, this Proclamation guaranteed our right to vote. From that point on, we thought we were equal. How many politicians wrote about this proclamation in your local papers?2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nancy Saleeby

Cap on Congress' Term/BenefitsI would like to propose something that isn't a new idea regarding term limits for all congress and senate elected officials. I would like them to be capped at two terms. With that I would also like to see the government employees be invested in 401k accounts and have them have the same opportunities as those of us they represent to seek healthcare insurance at the end of their term, either voted out or term has expired. Their retirement/401k would function the same as the private sector. With the savings we would realize, I would propose that money go directly to fund healthcare benefits for our veterans. I would work in more details, but would love if we could have a serious action on this issue. I believe we americans are tired of this congress/senate reaping benefits that last too long and for really no achieved results.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kimberly Keefe
