Financing the Wisconsin recall

Fourteen Pennsylvania legislators with ties to the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) have publicly stated that they are no longer affiliated with the controversial corporate front group. They join dozens of legislators across the country who are fleeing ALEC in response to public pressure from constituents. ALEC is behind the efforts to pass bills that strip away union rights, scale back child labor laws, attack the regulation power of environmental agencies, suppress voter rights with strict identification requirements, eliminate the social safety net, and privatize public services. ALEC is not just another public policy organization, it is a corporate front group supporting some of the most radical and dangerous legislation in the nation. Still, dozens of legislators, including more than 60 Democrats, have not publicly rejected ALEC. Two Democrats, Rep. Joseph Petrarca and Rep. W. Curtis Thomas, are members of ALEC and have not resigned. Sign this petition to get all PA Democratic legislators to publicly say NO to ALEC.

Please consider financial support for the Wisconsin recall effort.

I have been trying to do a modification for the past 3 yrs with my mortgage co. and I am getting the runaround since it is a private investor. I was told in April that they were working with the hamp program but found out that the co. was but my loan was owned by a private investor and they were not working with the hamp program. I filed for bankruptcy 13 in 2010 and now my lawyer is telling me I have 12 days to pay the month I owe them or else the house will be removed from the bankruptcy. I refinanced in the year of 2007 by a co. by the name of American brokers conduit, they appraised by house $750.00 which I questioned them about as the city had my house appraised at $450.00 I was told that the loan was to be capped at 12% and if the rates went down my rate would be reduced which never happen, they sold my loan to American home mortgage and they went into bankruptcy, American home mortgage finally sold the loan to a company by the name of Residential Credit Solutions. I found out American brokers conduit was not licensed to do business in Va. and they had gone out of business except that they are still sending me advertisement about refinancing.

California has been supporting the use of medical marijuana facilities, and has been coming closer to a limited legalization for the public use. The federal government, with limited support from President Obama, has been going to extremes in order to eliminate the medical marijuana dispensaries. Obama has the power to make alrterations in the system to at least save the large legal market of dispensaries, and protect our state in the separation of powers.

Sen. Harkin (D-IA) and Rep. DeLauro (D-CT) have sponsored legislation in both Houses to create jobs. Specifically: * Invest in infrastructure and manufacturing * Provide the education and skills necessary for a 21st century workforce * Empower workers * Bolster retirement security * Strengthen families * Pay for the bill by creating a fairer tax structure For more information, read the article on the AFL-CIO website: http://www.aflcio.org/Blog/Political-Action-Legislation/Harkin-s-Rebuild-America-Act-Builds-Economy-for-99

In the strongest terms, I urge the DNC to fund Tom Barrett's election against Gov. Scott Walker. We must NOT lose this recall election. The nation is watching and countless Wisconsin's teachers -- to say nothing of the state's education system -- is poised for disaster. For God's sake, fund this worthy effort!

Petition is about taxes & the ceiling on prices are much too high for income of $100,000 & under, especially during these times when prices on everything have been raised due to oil & gas price increases. People within this range of income should sign petition because the 1% isnt paying as much as they should be. For ex: republican candidate is paying same ount of taxes as his secretary whose income is no where near as high as his. Also corporations have raised their prices on everything the consumer "needs" to buy (including food) to compensate their consumption price increases. Ex: Cereal companies, etc. have raised their prices considerably since the countries financial deficit syemming from stock market issues, gas increases, heating homes, electricity, etc.

Education funding is being strangled, programs cut and teachers fired, while OK Legislators are pushing the elimination of ALL Personal Income Tax (the major source of revenue in Oklahoma). This does not make responsible fiscal sense, as this will affect Oklahomas ability to bond and finance ALL projects.

Unfair hiring practice due to credit scores must be stopped immediately so that Americans can get back to work. This practice does not benefit the creditor, the company nor does it benefit our country. Unemployment will continue to rise as this common practice has a domino effect, no employment, no taxes paid, no creditor being paid, no rent or mortgage being paid, homelessness= poverty. Poverty= public assistance, public assistance= tax dollars, tax dollars= bugdet deficits all across the board. Hey stupid get a clue!!!!

In our country the national media would have you believe that all of us either believe in lowering taxes to solve our national problems or increasing spending on social programs. I believe there are many of us who have a more mature understanding of finances and our national political reality.

This petition rejects the premise that every petition that is divisive and/or combative and relies on false accusations and distortion of fact has merit simply because it is making noise. The only petitions of merit are those based on fact and not propagandistic slurs against any isolated constituency.
