Call for states to ratify a Constitutional ammendment that would remove corporations as citizens and restore them as solely legal entities who exist at the Will of the People.

Petition the Federal government to pay back Social Security. It is illegal to use the Social Security money to fund anything else except Social Security. President GW Bush in alience with Alan Greenspan the money's used to 1. Fund the War in Iraq and 2. to keep the government solvent after giving the rich a tax break. There was not a provision to pay the money back. Now is the time to do that.

The filibuster is a parliamentary procedure that allows one person to delay and or eventually prevent a vote on an issue unless 60% of the Senate votes yea to end debate and vote. Its time has come and gone and it needs to be gone. It is evident that its use is more political than practical especially now since no Senator even filibusters on the floor of the senate and actually talks about a bill. Only a mention of filibuster stops all movement. Let's get rid of it. Vote here before that is gone too.

Taxpayer protection: The same safeguards of public money required by government employees in the Hatch Act should apply to all public money given to any corporation.

Public land belongs to the citizens of the United States. Why should they not profit from the oil and gas found there? Also pass a law that lateral drilling from off public land to under public land is prohibited.

We need to quit making taxpayers pay for other people's loans, student or otherwise. It is unfair to create more debt by forgiving the debt of people who don't keep their committments and forcing the government to increase everybody's taxes to eventually pay for the losses. Or, worse yet, force the banks who gave the loans to lose their investments in the people to whom the loans were given.

The people in Memphis voted to consolidate the school system. Several municipalities now want to separate with aid from their republican legislators in Nashville.

The Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument has been proposed by a group of business, environmental, non-profit, and government organizations to preserve and protect the natural beauty of Southern New Mexico as well as historic sites including Mogollon Jornado, ancestral Puebloan, Spanish, Mexican, and Anglo - indigenous camps, petroglyphs, historic ranches and homesites, Butterfield Overland Mail route, World War II test and training bomb targets, and even places where Apollo astronauts trained. These areas in the Organ Mountains, Robledo Mountains, Sierra de las Uvas, and the Potrillo Volcanic Complex are threatened by development, mining, and potential abuses of the land. Previous attempts to protect these lands required an Act of Congress. Designating them a National Monument, under the Antiquities Act of 1904, requires only an Executive Order by the President. Protecting these special lands should be high on our list of things to do.

I want to create a ballot initiative that guarantees eligible California residents a free UC or CSU education. I read the total cost of educating all CA children would cost only 3 billion a year.

Credit unions are exempt from paying into the state unemployment insurance fund. This may have made sense in the past when credit unions were small financial cooperatives. However, Credit Unions have expanded their business model and now operate as quasi banks offering a full range of financial services from credit cards to retirement planning. Employees of Credit Unions should therefore enjoy the same social safety net as those persons employed by for profit financial institutions.

Since people are given the right to opt of of a union through the right to work legislation they should also have the right to be represented by an organization if it be their desire! The rights of an individual should not be dependent upon a cooperation favoring their decision.
