• transparency in DE government
    During the Minner administration, sweetheart land deals between the DE Dept. of Transportation and select businessman occurred behind closed doors. Recently,Smyrna decided to stop the web broadcast of city government meetings. The University of Delaware does not allow the public at its upper level decision making meetings. More transparency is needed in state and local government and public organizations which receive state funds.

  • Run Chellie Run!

  • NAMING THE SPORTS COMPLEX AT WOODROW WILSON HS AFTER THE ORIGINAL MANOR HS
    The Portsmouth School Board is poised to name the football field at the original site of Manor High School. The Board has the potential to name individual sporting areas and the entire complex rather than asking several groups to unnecessarily battle over one name for the football field. I am calling on all citizens affiliated with Portsmouth Public Schools to support this effort that will recognize Portsmouth's past, present and future without pitting its citizens against one another.

  • Stop the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) in Kentucky Legislature
    The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) is a recently exposed hidden instrument of the largest corporations in America, used to craft state legislation that serves the interests of corporations and not people. ALEC boasts that it has over 1,000 of these bills introduced by legislative members every year, with one in every five of them enacted into law. The people want our laws to be written by those we have elected to serve the needs of the people, not the corporations. www.alecexposed.org

  • Create a Representative Body for citizens
    Because legislators do not need income from their job, they do not realistically represent the 99% of US who require an income. This bill can make the legislative branch more responsive and helpful in dealing with the real issues of working persons and families.

  • Save 68th Street School and Create a New 81st Street Community School!
    Our neighborhoods need a quality, public elementary school. Too many parents and neighbors feel they don't have acceptable elementary options for their children, and as a result we see young families leave our neighborhoods as their children reach school age. Together with our Neighborhood Associations and our Aldermen, we're proposing to create a new, high-performing, multicultural public school

  • Save the Horse Racing Industry in KY!
    Tell your senator and representative to let you vote on casino-type gambling in KY. The thoroughbred industry in KY is suffering because our state government will not allow casino-type gambing at our racetracks. This is an issue that the residents of this state should be able to decide on the ballot!

  • Stop MVA deliquent tax collection practices
    Starting in June 2011 the motor vehicle administration has begun the practice of state tax collection. It is rediculious to pair the renewal of your drivers or license plates withdeliquent taxes. Thereby turning the MVA into an aggressive debt collection agency funded by our tax dollars. Furthermore there are NO known explinations of this law or any exemptions, which should be available to the public and both the comptrollers office and the MVA direct you to the other agency when you have questions.
