Say no to President Obama's proposal to cut Social Security by lowering the cost-of-living adjustment for current and future retirees.

Stop proposed internet restrictions to give only billion-dollar companies high internet speeds.

I propose that if the government ever shuts down, that Congress lose their income for a full year. They have had a full year (paid) to do their job. They have not done one of the main things that they were paid to do--to help balance the budget. Let's cut some dead weight that is not working. Let's cut their salary, office budget, any and all expense accounts, retirement, and health care premium payments. Any and all payments that have already been paid should be reimbursed to the government from their reelection campaign funds. Spending valuable time and money trying to repeal a law that they should be trying to implement and help make better is showing their inability to function as professional lawmakers.

Please enact the Troy Plastic-Free Hudson River Act to reduce plastic pollution (ban styrofoam, plastic straws on demand, fee on paper bags). The bill will save tax dollars by reducing litter and taking a lot of non-recyclable plastic out of the waste stream.

Make term limits as long as the presidency, 2 terms only. Also politicians cannot become lobbyist for 5 years after leaving office.

The Tennessee Scenic Vistas Protection Act (SB 0577/ HB 0291) would prohibit permits for surface mining on ridges above 2,000 feet. By signing this petition, I am endorsing the original unamended bill sponsored by Senator Stewart in the Senate, and Representative McDonald in the House. Amendments offered by committee members in both houses changed the intent of the bill from one of protection to one that would allow coal companies to mine and then attempt to put the pieces of the destroyed mountain back together.

Call on Florida Legislators to stop racist policies on children.

Do not take local control of the schools away from the community by placing the Holyoke Public Schools into state receivership. Holyoke needs state support for its schools and students, not a state takeover.

In the next 5-20 years, I want all fossil fuel using machines or contraptions removed COMPLETELY from the face of the Earth!
