  • SUPPORT THE CAFETERIA WORKERS IN HOMER-CENTER PUBLIC SCHOOLS
    The Homer-Center School District is threatening to fire the district's school cafeteria workers and to subcontract their work to a private for-profit corporation. This will mean local tax dollars will leave our district and local residents will lose their jobs. Even if they are hired by the company, their salaries and benefits will be slashed. Please contact the Homer-Center School Board and Administration and tell them that our public schools are not for sale to the higest bidder!

  • Alabama Government: Stop Partisan Madness
    As a new legislative session begins in Montgomery, Alabama, legislators will consider issues that cannot be addressed satisfactorily in our current climate of partisan madness. You and I bear the lion's share of blame, because we feed the partisan beast that our legislators serve. Let's end our own bitterness and call for a new session without partisan rancor down in Montgomery, so that maybe together we can solve some of these pressing issues.

  • Tell the bullies at Minnewaska Schools this behavior will not be tolerated!
    A twelve year old girl in Minnewaska, Minnesota was targeted by school officials for harassment. When she posted on her private Facebook that a school monitor was mean to her, she was given detention. For asking her friends the next day who ratted her out, she was suspended. Finally, when another parent told the school she was talking to another student about sex, she was intimidated by officials and a Sheriff's deputy to surrender her login information. This harassment must stop!

    Before Illinois can even begin to really tackle the really tough issues of budget, education, infastuture, we need to trust our elected leaders. With our past two Governors now in jail, we need the strongest ethics legislation passed now.

  • Oppose The Student Loan Forgiveness Act of 2012
    A college education is a service, not a right. No one should pay for it except those who chose to borrow the money in the first place.

  • Get Money Out of Electoral Politics
    Elections should be the exclusive domain of the citizens. Due to the Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United v FEC , "money is speech", the U.S. Congress does not have the authority to limit campaign spending by corporations and wealthy individuals. If money is speech, speech will be allocated according to wealth. This is wrong.
