• Saving the Homeowner
    Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should decrease the capital amount owed by under water home owners. Doing this could keep roughly 500,000 home owners from losing their residence and uprooting their families. Ed Demarco, head of Federal Housing Authority, should change his position and keep these houses from hitting foreclosure or short sale status.

  • Impeach the Supreme Court
    The Supreme Court is composed of a majority of right wing Bush appointees. For the most part, their rulings have reflected the opinions of this majority. They are appointed for life and this perpetuates the problem. We need to amend the structure of the Court to reflect the interests of the majority and not the 1%. Impeach the entire Court and elect judges for a rotating periods not to exceed eight years. The judges should have two weeks to campaign (not accepting funding other than from the Federal Government). All candidates should received equal funding. The elections should coincide with Presidential elections.

  • Stop the Republican hypocrisy regarding judicial nominees
    The Republican Party should stop playing partisan politics by stopping their record setting and mesmerizing hypocritical obstruction to President Obama's judicial nominees, especially since the Federal bench has become top heavy with far right-wing ideologues that overtly promote a political agenda that protects corporations and squashes the disenfranchised.

  • Free Tim DeChristopher
    Tim DeChristopher is a climate change activist who was jailed for obstructing what turned out to be an illegal Bureau of Land Managment land sale. No one else involved in the sale has even been investigated, including one of the Koch brothers. He has received a harsh sentence relative to his crime and has already been harshly treated on an actual whim of the GOP. He needs to be released so that he can work on his appeal.

  • 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.
