• Do Not Use Public Funds For An Arena In Sodo
    The city wants us to help pay for a multi-purpose arena in Sodo district of Seattle. We've been through this before, and last time we were ignored getting stuck with the Safeco Field bill. Why should we have to pay for something that many people in the city won't even be using? We've got to tell Mayor McGinn to put the breaks on this one and withdrawal public funding of this.

  • STOP THE INSANITY! RESTORE, RATHER THAN REPLACE THE TAPPAN ZEE BRIDGE.
    As a New York resident you are about to be saddled with an astronomical cost, via increased taxes, and reduced quality of life due to more traffic jams, 5 to 10 or more years of noise, dust, increased air pollution, and inestimable environmental damage to the Hudson River, it’s aquatic life, and the surrounding communities. The cause of all this: Our State Governor has embarked on a project to replace The Tappan Zee Bridge— a completely unnecessary, $5 to $10 billion or more undertaking, with an unbalanced state budget, borrowed funds and already strained public services. PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION AND PUT A STOP TO THIS MADNESS

  • End tax on income used to pay student loans
    To incentivize education loan repayment, taxpayers should not have to pay federal or state income tax on wages, retirement funds, social security, or other income when it is used to repay education loan debt. The volume of education loan is soaring, the loan rates are extremely high relative to rates paid for savings, and the middle class--young and old -- is saddled with education loan debt. We need a mechanism like 529 plans that will make it easy to move money from wages, retirement funds, social security or other income into tax-free accounts that can be used to repay student and Parent Plus loans.

  • CREDO and Working Assets--leave the Bank of America
    These two creditable progressive organizations which are constantly asking us for funds to support valuable causes, deposit our money in the Bank of America which works as hard as it can to defeat these same causes. When I asked why the response was"we have no control over the money". This makes no sense to me when there are dozens of other banks which are not so reactionary.

  • Do Not Permit Horse Slaughter in Nevada
    Asking state officials to sponsor and pass a bill banning the slaughter of horses for human consumption on the state level, here in Nevada. Eating horse flesh is not condoned in the Bible. Also, it has been an inhumane practice. There is not a humane way to slaughter a horse because of its nature. There are not controls to know if a horse has ingested toxic chemicals. It is not necessary and is greed driven.
