• Tell Congress: Defend diplomacy and stop a war with Iran
    Donald trump is trying to kill the Iran nuclear deal and put our country back on a dangerous path towards war with Iran. This week, reports indicate that the President will officially decertify the Iran deal to Congress. International experts and the President’s own senior advisors have publicly made clear the deal is working exactly as intended. Unfortunately, Donald Trump’s petty, political desire to undo everything accomplished during the Obama Administration means that he’s going to ignore the truth and decertify the deal anyway. With the President having made his intentions clear, it is up to Congress to make the next move. Congress has to choose whether it will side with the American public, national security experts, and our closest allies or whether they’ll side with Donald Trump and a series of warmongers who have hated this deal since day one, precisely because it avoids the regime change war they’ve always wanted. The Iran deal is working, and we need Congress to protect it against Trump’s efforts to kill it and put us back on the path to war. In the weeks ahead Congress is likely going to be weighing legislation that could either immediately kill the deal by reimposing sanctions or undermine the deal but still walk away from this historic diplomatic accomplishment. Instead of following Trump’s lead, Congress should take steps to isolate the Iran deal from Trump’s political meddling and build upon its foundation to solve our nation’s problems through diplomacy, not war. Let’s make Congress hear our voices and demand they do the right thing, defend diplomacy, and avoid a war with Iran.

  • Congressman Kurt Schrader, give up your N.R.A funding
    I'm tired of our collective lack of action on gun control. The N.R.A. should not have a strangle hold on public policy when it comes to gun control. I want my congressional representative to put the interests of my congressional district before the interests of the N.R.A. We need sensible gun control legislation. We need it now!

  • Calling on Rep. Lee Zeldin to give back $33732 in NRA contributions
    I am disgusted by the hold the NRA has over members of Congress and elsewhere. Rational gun legislation is needed now more than ever.

  • Rep Faso - owned by NRA?
    I am sick of the Republican's lame excuses for doing NOTHING to stop these massacres, because they serve the NRA, not their constituents.

  • Fair Credit Reporting Now!!
    The current rules for reporting credit are unfair to consumers and do not provide an accurate indication of credit risk which denies credit to deserving people and forces man consumers to pay higher interest rates than they should.

  • The Courage to Save Lives
    The purpose of the Second Amendment has been completely distorted by well financed special interests leaving all Americans vulnerable to deadly use of military grade semi-automatic weapons. Representative Lee Zeldin received $33,732 from the National Rifle Association and members of its staff. He must show the courage to put the lives and well-being of constituents above money, or we should remove him from office on November 6, 2018.

  • VP Pence: you owe us $1 million for that NFL stunt
    Mike Pence flew 3,300 miles in Air Force Two on a Trump-promoted stunt—spending millions in the process—just so he could insult NFL players taking a knee for racial justice. After some players knelt during the national anthem at a recent Indianapolis Colts game, Pence walked out of the stadium, later saying in a statement "I stand with President Trump, I stand with our soldiers, and I will always stand for our Flag and our National Anthem."2 It was an obvious media stunt, designed to continue the administration's racist attacks on athletes peacefully demonstrating against police brutality and systematic racism. Unlike our vice president and Donald Trump, I actually served in the military, and I am 100% in support of the athletes calling attention to our broken, unjust system. I don't appreciate it when Trump and Pence talk about veterans and the flag to hide their own racist agenda, and I don't appreciate a expensive, taxpayer-funded publicity stunt to advance their politics of hate. Join me in telling Pence to pay us back for his stunt.

  • Kurt Schrader: Stop the NRA
    I'm tired of watching my countrymen gunned down with these weapons that have no other purpose than to kill people. With this most recent mass shooting in Las Vegas, we must act quickly to safeguard Americans.

  • Senator Young: Return your NRA contributions
    The NRA's financial hold on our Congress is overwhelming, and it is one of the primary reasons why, in the wake of national tragedies like we witnessed in Las Vegas, we remain unable to pass commonsense gun laws. This needs to change.

  • Government must Abolish ICE
    ICE agents under Trump have operated unchecked. Agents are detaining immigrants outside schools, churches, hospitals, and courthouses -- "sensitive" locations where they're not supposed to operate. ICE should be abolished.

  • Independent Voters are Tax Payers, too
    In the 2016 Presidential Election, my partner and I went to cast our vote for the party which we intended to vote for that year. We learned that 1. only people registered as Democrat or Republican were allowed to cast a vote in the NYS primaries, and 2. we would have had to switch our 193 DAYS before the election, which we didn't find out until well past time! New York State has THE most prohibitive party switching measures in the US, and it silences nearly 30% of voters in New York! This is not how a democracy is run.
