• National Anti-Bully Law
    Make adults follow the same rules and laws regarding bullying that we expect our school children to follow. Children learn what they live. How can we expect their behaviors to change when the adults, in particular those in the news on a daily basis and parents, do not follow the rules.

  • Forever Benefits for Senators and the House?
    Their benefits should be the same as any other state or federal employee and theirs terms be limited. Their raises should only reflect the economy and of those that hold the same degree; an average across the country. Maybe a new job description with accountibilty being measurable.

  • Keep Buffalo Creek Clean
    Buffalo Creek, a high quality trout stream in Donegal Twp, Butler Country, Pennsylvania is regularly stocked by the PA Fish Commission and utilized by thousands of people for recreational purposes. It is known as one of the ten best trout streams in PA. Hickey Bottom Wetlands, where Buffalo Creek flows, is one of the diminishing areas of unspoiled land that exists in Butler County, habitat of the endangered Massasauga Rattlesnake and other threatened wildlife. A mining corporation is in the process of making application to the PA Department of Environmental Protection for strip mining permits to mine this land. There are now 3 surface mines and a deep coal mine proposed within a 5 mile radius. Strip mining removes all vegetation, destroys the habitat for all wildlife, removes all topsoil and the underground rock layer, then proceeds to remove coal. The mine will go down into the earth seven stories. The devastation to local wetlands, fishing waters, hunting grounds, and habitat for all the living creatures held within, will not be possible to be reclaimed in the lifetime of our generation. We are asking everyone who lives in or visits Donegal Twp Buffalo Creek to join in protecting the creek and wetlands

  • Grants For Alternative Energy Conversion for Low-Income Families and Individuals
    Alternative Energy sources like Wind and Solar power could help to reduce or eliminate energy cost for Low-Income Families and Individuals. There should be a grant that providers of Low-Income housing should be able to get that would assist in the building and maintaining of Wind generators that have been developed for Urban use, and for Solar panels that follow the sun and capture a much higher degree of energy.

  • Pass the "Use it or Lose it Act" before the general election
    Currently, by their own admission to Congress, the Petroleum industry is only drilling in about 25% of the places they currently hold leases to drill, but they refuse to return the rest of the leases for reissue to others. Passing this act would reduce the price of gas at the pump (the law of supply and demand DOES work), put more people back to work (the closed down refineries would reopen), protect fragile eco-systems like the gulf and the artic (since the currently held leases are NOT in those areas), and take the control of our economy out of the hands of the petroleum industry.
