• Integrate Schools. End the SHSAT
    New York has the most segregated schools in the US. NYC is the only district in the nation with high schools that use a single test to determine admission. Integrated schools are best for all children. It's now sixty-five years after Brown v. Board of Ed. We should no longer support school segregation.

  • Petition to Create an Intermidiate Aqua Spin Class
    The Tuesday and Thursday 8 am and 9 am Aqua Spin Class participants have been taking the same Beginners class for the last several sessions because there is not an Intermediate Class. We feel that more advanced training at this point is necessary to obtain our individual desired goals. There is an advanced class held on Saturday, however, the current participants are requesting a morning weekday (preferably two weekdays) Intermediate Aqua Spin course. We are requesting for the course to begin in the Winter (Jan 2019) or Spring Sessions 2019.

  • Rep. Anne Stava-Murray, please vote against Michael J. Madigan as Speaker of Illinois House
    News reports say the Democratic Party, allies in organized labor and others have been pressuring you to vote for Michael J. Madigan for Speaker of the House. We believe that you should stand by your commitment to vote for another candidate. As, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has shown, one person with courage makes a majority. The Illinois General Assembly will function fine with another Democrat as Speaker of the House.

  • Dear New Congress, Fix What is Broken in America
    We the People lost our Constitution and our Power when activist SCOTUS decisions created corporate personhood and money as speech. We demand the return of our US Constitution and our power. Below is the full text of HJR 48, as our 28th Amendment to the US Constitution. We the People demand nothing less. H. J. RES. 48 Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States providing that the rights extended by the Constitution are the rights of natural persons only. “Article  — “ Section 1. The rights protected by the Constitution of the United States are the rights of natural persons only. Artificial entities, such as corporations, limited liability companies, and other entities, established by the laws of any State, the United States, or any foreign state shall have no rights under this Constitution and are subject to regulation by the People, through Federal, State, or local law. The privileges of artificial entities shall be determined by the People, through Federal, State, or local law, and shall not be construed to be inherent or inalienable. “ Section 2. Federal, State and local government shall regulate, limit, or prohibit contributions and expenditures, including a candidate’s own contributions and expenditures, to ensure that all citizens, regardless of their economic status, have access to the political process, and that no person gains, as a result of that person’s money, substantially more access or ability to influence in any way the election of any candidate for public office or any ballot measure. Federal, State, and local governments shall require that any permissible contributions and expenditures be publicly disclosed. The judiciary shall not construe the spending of money to influence elections to be speech under the First Amendment.”.

  • Save the Plant and Help Save the Planet: Build Zero-Emission Vehicles at Lordstown
    Closure of the GM Lordstown Assembly Plant would be a disaster for thousands of working families and scores of communities in NE Ohio. The most viable option to prevent plant closure is to echo the call by GM for a zero-emission future through mass production of long-range all-electric vehicles and call for the allocation of the cars of the future at Lordstown.

  • MORATORIUM ON ALL FORECLOSURES IN 2019!
    We must stop the Banks from stealing our homes. Yes, I worked at J.P. Morgan Chase and was responsible for doing loan modifications and was witness to unlawful foreclosures. Therefore Congress must stop the Banks once and for all. Have County Records audit titles and send the FBI the forged documents. I have started a book for homeowners to review what is going on in our Courts. https://www.amazon.com/FORECLOSURE-FIGHT-YOUR-BEGINS-home/dp/1071121391?fbclid=IwAR0vGkR5gHVEc933ifwhUO0m6ljICpl5yG3DIyulN4CX1b1Tr7A3Q7IQOeM

  • Shut down the immigrant children's prison
    The Trump administration opened the prison in the Texas desert as a model for a string of prisons it wants to build along our border to house asylum seekers and other immigrants. It has manufactured a crisis by slowing the process of reuniting families, causing thousands of children to be incarcerated for long periods of time. In addition to the threat of deportation for relatives in the U.S., the threat that children will be imprisoned is intended to frighten people from coming to this country in the first place. This prison is a disgrace and is contrary to everything our country is supposed to stand for. If allowed to continue, it would set a dangerous precedent and could lead us in a direction that history teaches us we must not go.
