  • U.S. Olympic Team's Uniforms should be "Made In America."
    The Summer Olympics held in London, England begin Friday, July 27, 2012, and end Sunday, August 12, 2012. Team U.S.A. will be wearing Uniforms that were Made In China. With so many Americans unemployed, tax breaks for companies that send jobs overseas and China's unfair trade policies. This is unacceptable and needs to be changed. Mitt Romney will be attending and he should speak out on this issue.

  • Education Policy Should be Decided by Educators
    Public education policy in the United States is under attack from a variety of directions. Corporate influences want to push for a for-profit model to tap into what they see as an untapped source of income. Misguided "reformers" want to push to end basic due-process protections for teachers in a quest to root out the insignificant numbers of "bad teachers." Politicians continue to push for "teacher accountability" while ignoring the accountability of the parties that control student achievement the most; parents and students. Meanwhile, our education system, our dedicated teachers, and our students all suffer further degradation of their morale.

  • Usage Restrictions for Breaker Stadium
    Breaker Stadium was rebuilt with local taxpayer monies (Measure D) with the promise of accessibility for the local residents. Current usage by non-local groups has effectively destroyed this promise. We are asking the P.G.U.S.D. to limit outside use to a maximum of 4 hours on Sat./Sun and Holidays and at no time will the lights be turned on for said outside use.

  • Democrats in Congress: Push President Obama's Job Bill
    The President has called upon Congress many times to pass the Jobs Bill. They won't. Instead they make over 30 attempts to repeal Health Care Reform, and Romney blames the president for not creating jobs. Democrats should agitate in the same way with The Jobs Bill. We call upon Democrats in Congress to PUSH President Obama's job bill and get it passed.

  • Help Americans get “Back to Life” not just to a “Job”
    It is documented by clinical psychologists that anyone experiencing job lost for more than 6 weeks starts to foster feelings of despair, bitterness, anger and resentment. To date, the average length of unemployment is currently between 37-39 weeks coupled with the fact that the 21st Century Job Seeker(s) and employee(s) have lost either homes, families, savings, identities and trust in leadership, makes for a highly unstable workforce and reasonably so. Let’s send a message of solidarity, hope, support and unity to every worker and job seeker within the 21st Century workforce. In a time where leadership has not only been questioned but desolately absent, it is OUR responsibility to step up and help restore trust amongst our families, friends, neighbors, students and returning veterans who are still struggling to secure balance within this workforce.

  • Get MoveOn.org to caption, subtitle, or provide a transcript for every video they urge MoveOn.org...
    There are at least a million Deaf or hard of hearing people in the United States. All of these people require captions, subtitles, or a transcript in order to understand any online video (digitally-recorded) content that is distributed. MoveOn.org therefore excludes a significant Deaf and hard of hearing population each and every time MoveOn.org posts a video without captions, subtitles, or a transcript. Deaf and hard of hearing activists (and there are many) are repeatedly excluded from understanding the content of videos, and therefore, cannot share them or participate in any form of political action involving social networking/sharing of videos. MoveOn.org can't claim to promote social justice while perpetuating injustice.
