  • Stop the New Nuke Power Loan Guarantees
    The Department of Energy is poised to give $8.33 billion in loan guarantees to the Georgia Vogtle double-reactor project that could irradiate the planet and bankrupt the state. But especially after the Solyndra bankruptcy, details of the deal are coming under intense scrutiny, at the Office of Management and Budget and elsewhere. If we stop this boondoggle there may never be another nuclear plant built in the US.

  • Shared Sacrifice to Fix Washington
    Our representatives have lost sight on the people they represent and are more focused on their ability to profit from their time in Washington. Politicians should be made responisible and share in the sacrifices that the rest of us have been forced, by their decisions, to endure.

  • Stop Outrageous Credit Card Rates
    Many credit card companies, Citibank in particular, increased, often doubled, their interest rates in advance of legislation to protect consumers. Their usury must be stopped; it's time for our elected officials to represent the interests of ordinary Americans instead of corporate thieves by requiring credit card companies and banks to establish reasonable interest rates.

  • DAYLIGHT SAVINGS USELESS AND OUTDATED
    Get rid of Daylight saving time. What purpose does it serve today? I cant think of anything that it makes better by adjusting an hour ahead or back. Back in the day I believe it served the purpose of farmers able to harvest their crops earlier or something to that effect. But what good is it, especially when it starts getting dark at 5:30 and you just got off work less than a half hour ago. Let get rid of a ritual that is outdated and useless.

  • Positive Police Presence
    Stop police from shooting innocent people. For police to use rubber bullets, to stun and disable, but not KILL! There are so many different ways to stun someone, without actually killing them. I would like on a FEDERAL level for there to be a change in the way Police stop acting like bullies, and start treating people with more dignity. Use other methods unless their lives are clearly in danger and can prove it. A gun held in their face...if not, rubber bullets need to be used more often, or the bean bag method. Stun the person enough that they lose their force and are not dangering others, but that the Police are not shooting and killing kids and adults. STOP ENDLESS KILLING!

  • Keep Our Postal Service Great
    The last couple of years have had a great number of buzzards circling the Postal Service, trying to pick it apart and completely obliterate it. They are doing this for one reason and one reason only. That is so they can claim it for themselves and rip off the American public. Congress, under the Bush administration caused the Postal Service great problems by enacting a law requiring it to prefund future retiree health benefits through the year 2075 and doing it all within a 10 year period. That means that the Postal Service has to put 5.5 Billion dollars into the Treasury on Sept. 1 every year. It starts its fiscal year $5-1/2billion in the red or $55Billion by 2916, That is absurd and no other company or agency in America is mandated to do anything even close to that. The Postal Service has also overpaid into the Civil Service and Federal Employee Health funds over the past 40+ years due to an accounting error to the tune of around $75billion. This has absolutely been documented by the GAO and the OIG. Congress can fix the Postal Service by suspending the future payments and returning at least a portion of the money it is owed. Nothing else needs to be done, except maybe to get rid of about 60% of the management staff which is way overbloated with friends and relatives of higher ups. Congress needs to know America wants the same, only better, Postal Service it has come to expect for the last thousand years. SAVE AMERICA'S POSTAL SERVICE. Thank you.
