Most of the money for political campaigns buys advertising to influence how a person votes. If voters have already made up their minds how they will vote, the need for big money is greatly reduced.

A mountain lion attacked a hiker in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains and now Department of Fish and Game Wardens are searching for the mountain lion to kill it! Email Jerry Brown to urge him to order the Department of Fish and Game to call off the search!

Encourage jobs and increased earnings for Americans by rescinding the tax collected on SSI benefits, paid to retirees who return to work and earn more than $13,000/yr. in new wages.

My name's Pepe and I make $8.50 per hour -- barely enough to get by on in South Florida. On July 4th, I had the opportunity to ask Bill Young, the man who represents me in Congress, if he might support raising the minimum wage. His response, before walking away: "GET A JOB." Bill Young is out of touch and doesn't understand how the minimum wage impacts my life. Yet he doesn't have any problem increasing his own wage on the backs of taxpayers. I recently found out that he voted to increase his own salary to nearly $175,000! Join me in asking Congressman Young for an apology and a real answer about why he doesn't support raising the minimum wage.

Getting money and its influence out of politics.

To all the Senators and House members--all who have a good health care coverage. My daughter who worked for 30 years without any health care coverage is afraid if Republicans take the Senate and House she will still not have any coverage

We should not be harming other species for our own benefit, especially in such large numbers and in ways that will destroy their quality of life.

I am completely opposed to the U.S. Navy's plan to kill or deafen the whales off our California coast. I am horrified that my country would do such a thing to harmless wildlife near our coast. Please rethink this vicious plan!

New homes being built must have solar hot water tank and solar panels installed by the builder and be American made. It's outrageous that solar is not being used in the southern and southwest states and California and Hawaii. Owners of older homes should receive a hundred percent tax credit if instslled within the next 5 years. This shoud be a huge savings for home owners in the long run and save millions of gallons of oil.

It's inhumane to use sonar where it can harm whales and dolphins. we must not do this no matter what it takes.

The President has submitted many Bills for consideration on improving jobs, the economy, infrastructure, & social reform that the Republican Congress have deliberately blocked, held or filibustered for their partisan interests irrespective of the will of the people. They are comitted to power in lieu of the interests of the country. Their actions have slowed the economic recovery for all Americans and has resulted in usurping the overwelming support the people. If the interests of the people are disregarded they are violating the Constitutional rights of the people. They must submit or be eliminated. Their actions are in fact Treason and must be dealt with in that vane as a crime. Republicans can't win an election fairly so they are engaged in stealing the November election by disenfranchising millions of voters using voter suppression laws as an excuse for protecting voter fraud which simply does not exsist. The justice dept must be engaged quickly to make null and void this criminal behavior before the election and not after!

I have ongoing health issues directly related to lack of funds/full dental coverage :( Dental health is not just a cosmetic issue :( It's a true health issue that should be regarded in the same light as the diabetes/over weight issues facing us. Please help form a foundation of professional health care experts, laymen, concerned citizens who will put an end to this tragedy.
