  • Ask the FDA to require recyclable Rx bottles
    3.7 billion prescriptions were filled in retail pharmacies in the United States in 2010 (1). That is an awful lot of plastic. Unfortunately, the bottles used for these prescriptions are often not recyclable (2). Many states also prohibit pharmacies from reusing prescription bottles (3).

  • Representation Taxation
    Corporations must employ American workers in order to receive any tax relief from the taxpayer. If they hold on to windfall profits without building industry or outsource for cheaper labor, then they lose every tax loophole.

  • *Congressional Reform Act of 2011*
    This is one idea that really should be passed around. I received it by email and it said that Warren Buffet is the author. While I can not confirm that, this is a really good set of corrections to the current Congress, and I submit it as a petition. THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!! If you agree with the above, please sign this petition.

  • Don't Change Yourself. Change the Law.
    In Michigan you can be fired if someone thinks you’re gay. Current state civil rights law protects against workplace discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion and national origin. What it doesn’t do is extend those protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Tell House Speaker Bolger to change the law to protect all Michiganders.

  • I support the Healthy Workplace Bill in Massachusetts
    The Healthy Workplace Bill creates a legal claim for bullying targets who can establish that they were subjected to malicious, health-harming behavior. It also provides defenses for employers who act preventively and responsively with regard to bullying and includes provisions to discourage frivolous claims. http://www.mahealthyworkplace.com

  • Upholding Constitutional Personhood
    In its justly infamous decision known as "Citizens United," a majority of the current Supreme Court gave further legitimacy and power to the legal concept of "corporate personhood," whereby a corporation is to be treated under Federal law as having the same rights as an individual citizen. This concept does not appear in our Constitution, and it has a pernicious effect on our democracy.
