• Student loan forgiveness
    If the President and Congress really wanted to jumpstart our economy they would pass legislation to partially / fully forgive any/all outstanding college loans. With additional spendable income many of these college grads would either spend more on durable goods or save it for down payments on homes, cars or other large ticket items.

  • Stop the keystone XL Pipeline - again!
    The Keystone XL pipeline is being pushed by Republicans to carry the dirtiest crude oil ever from Canadian tarsands to refineries in Texas from where it will be shipped abroad. Refining this dirty oil for use guarantees that we will tip the rate of climate change over the edge of no return (Dr. Steven Chu). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNpQ2nTUYkU. President Obama has less than 60 days to reverse heavy pressure to approve it. We can help him do the right thing.

  • World for a Common Good
    For the common good and for the common defense; is a Promise we as citizenry must keep. Common defense does not provide an unequal security to American global corporate power as a privilege. Military used to invade and occupy any country, for the gain of just one sector of American society. When this is perceived in action, this should be considered a break away from our concept of a common defense for the common good.

  • Update our voting system
    Tuesday voting should be obsolete. It was chosen in 1845 to make it easier for people to get to the polls by horse and buggy since it took 2 days to make the round trip and no one wanted to travel on the Sabbath. 167 years later we are still voting on a day when most of the population has to work.

  • DISCLOSURE
    We want the truth about the governments knowledge of extraterrestrials and their involvement with ETs. Disclosure will expose the massive 60 + year cover up by the government. This will in turn create a snow ball effect that will eventually expose just how corrupt our government has been, and all the things that have been kept secret from the public, such as mis appropriation of tax dollars for black-ops programs and free energy devices that would help the environment and feed the hungry worldwide!

  • Standing United Against Death by Tobacco
    The United States federal and state governments are not fullfilling their mission to protect the lives of Americans from illness and death by tobacco. Despite the loss of more than 430,000 Americans and more than a million innocent mourners annually the public health funds to reduce the harm from this epidemic are denied while tobacco taxes are increased. The President, congress, state governors and their legislators are asked to redress this unacceptable annual death toll from tobacco by directing that sufficient public health funds from the rising tobacco tax revenue be allocated to the programs and agencies responsible for tobacco harm reduction programs.

  • Save the United States Post Office from corporate take over.
    The United States Post Office is under attack by corporate interests influencing goverment policies governing the USPS. The USPS is set up for financial failure on mutiple fronts. Some of the most destructive are a mandate to fund retirements of future workers that are not yet hired or born. Also a mandate to carry bulk mail and packages below costs for corporations. And refusal by governing bodies to allow the USPS to grow its business into identified profitable areas in information security. Politicians creating these mandates are catering to the financial interests of corporate carriers to reduce competition which will lead to an increase in prices for the services we all depend upon. Please help save this important American institution so providing information to others is affordable and impartial.
