  • Stop Coal Transport by Rail or Barge
    1.5 mile long trains will pass through the Columbia River Gorge where toxic coal dust will drop into the river and into the habitat that supports endangered Salmon. Our fruits and vegetables are grown along this route. Honey bees pollinating plants could carry coal dust back to hives and further endanger our honey bees.The coal to China is burned for electricity and will return via the Pacific air stream as acid rain falling into oceans and streams.

  • Get Money Out of Our Politics
    Our elected officials continue to fail to represent people, catering instead to special interests, lobbyists, corporations, and political machines. It is time to take back our government by taking money out of the equation. The richest billionaires and conglomerates should not run our government; leaders should represent the PEOPLE.

They should pay into Social Security, Medicare, and stop getting paid when they stop serving in Congress.

  • Stop Corruption and Unfair Prejudice Against Mothers in Family Court Custody Cases
    Unfair discrimination has now been proven by Dr. Saunders of the University of Michigan: mothers and children who are abused physically, psychologically, financially, and institutionally through vicious court battles are victims of strong prejudice by judges who simply are prejudiced against mothers and children. Dr. Saunders research proves that judges who mistakenly believe that all mothers make up domestic violence charges, that fathers and patriarchy are right for society, and that all judges make the right decisions are the types of judges who further victimize and punish mothers and children who tell the truth about domestic violence. The US DOJ, Congress, and the states must take action to protect mothers and children from abusive judges because it violates civil rights and is reprehensibly sexist. These judges are guilty of hate crimes against mothers and children.

  • End the Filibuster in Congress
    In a time when every vote tends to have dramatic consequences on the common American citizen we can no longer allow the Republican party to hold change hostage through the use of the automatic filibuster. When a simple majority of 51 is all that is required to pass a law, then a 60 member vote should not be required to take a vote.
