justice - injusticeThe USA prison system is barbaric, racist, and unjust. The privatization of prisons make it the largest internal industry. What does this say about us? Let's no longer turn our backs on the most vulnerable population - this unmentionable shadow side of our nation.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gemma Lila

Getting Rid of CongressCongress is the body that makes the laws and can override the President's veto. We need to go to the source of our problems and not look toward the President who just serves as an idea man and a fall guy. We should be concentrating more on who gets into and remains in Congress. In Obama's first term, even if he tried to deliver on what the American majority said that they wanted by their vote, the Democrats who were in control of Congress at the time did not allow it; now, the Republicans aren't either. They have said it is their main goal to make Obama a one-term President verses doing what they can to better our country! Congresses complacency may be due to their individual wealth and lack of enforcement for them to pay their taxes, so they in fact, are out of touch with our working class society. No matter what President we vote into office, as long as the same members remain in Congress with their self-serving policies, such as great Healthcare packages for their families, which when offered to us are labeled Socialist, and their finances which allow them to afford to send their kids to college and have off shore accounts. This body of legislation would not want the higher echelon to be taxed at a higher rate because at the 1.3million dollars they currently owe and have not paid, they would refuse to pay that too. They are out of touch and also as of yet untouchable!!! WE need to CHANGE them then maybe our Presidents can do what the voting majority want!2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ron

Speaker Boehner: Stop Pursuing Contempt Charges Against AG HolderNancy Pelosi on CSPAN: "Make no mistake, the Republicans are going after Eric Holder, because he is fighting the Republicans' voter suppression efforts!" And after AG Holder refused to turn over subpoenaed records that would have compromised the safety of border agents, Mexican officials, and others, the House Oversight committee voted along party lines to hold him in contempt of Congress. President Obama has invoked executive privilege in order to further protect those involved. Yet Speaker Boehner vows to hold a vote of the full House next week and has the power to imprison the Attorney General when it passes.95 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Abbi Hattem

DOJ needs to investigate Supreme Court CorruptionJustice Thomas and Scalia have been blatent in their acceptance of Koch brothers (and others) "speaking fees" and and other forms of monetary "gifts". Justice Thomas's wife gets regular monetary contributions from these groups. The Citizens United disastrous decision is a direct response to to the influence purchasing. The problem is that this subtle form of bribery is aginst the law and needs to be investigated.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Thomas

No Contempt for Eric HolderHi, Eric Holder is the latest hostage in the Republican majority's bid to remove President Obama from office. Their measures are extreme, inflammatory, racist and a misuse of their time and energies and our tax dollars. To vote for contempt is to continue the downward spiral of the public's view of congress being viscous, partisan, petty and willing to ruin other people's lives and careers to achieve their aims. Stop this procedure!! That's why I created a petition to The United States House of Representatives, which says: "Stop the Contempt Vote for Eric Holder. If it is scheduled, Vote NO." Will you sign this petition? Click here: http://signon.org/sign/no-contempt-for-eric?source=c.em.mt&r_by=1129263 Thanks!1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Beverly Lenny

Sick of the Republicans with their hurting the country and the poorIt is obvious to me that the republican party have no problem with harming the poor and looking out for the rich. The republicans hate the president so much until they will harm the entire country just to get him out of office. I am so sick and tired of the mostly old white men who have been in office for in my judgement to long. The republicans have gone off the cliff and they are the party who started all the harm.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gloria
