S.S.I.
I've known about most of these but I'll bet many don't. I'm sure there are many things that could be written about things the Republicans did but these guys seem to have always fooled with seniors when it comes to $$$$. The one that really angered me was the paying of income tax on 85% of social security receipts. Thank you Al Gore. (More >>>)
Remember to fly Alaska Airlines
Do you remember the scene? The Senate. Barbara Boxer
hearing from a Brigadier General? Silly General! He
addresses Barbara as "Ma'm", and she CORRECTS him, telling him she's
"worked SO hard to earn the title, "Senator", so please to use
that when speaking to her. (More >>>)

One of the central selling points used by President Obama to push the
Democrats' health care plan is the notion that a comprehensive overhaul
of the health care system will reduce costs. But costs to who, and how?

Dear
Mr. Levy,
On
behalf of our supporters,
the citizens of the State of
There's a rally in the Capitol today that Democracy Rising PA cannot attend. But we're there in spirit, and we hope all Pennsylvanians are there, too. Click Here for an excellent lawmaker-by-lawmaker report by Rock the Capital.
Four years ago today, our political leadership committed an unprecedented act of theft. Without the knowledge or consent of the citizens of PA, our leaders took a massive pay raise for themselves and their posterity. (More >>>)
An Open Letter to the the PresidentDear Mr. President,
I write to you as one elected official to another on behalf of average American citizens. We listen to your words and measure them carefully. With hope, we watch your actions. We then look to history and compare the events of our day with the events of yesterday. We look to our Founders and read carefully their intellectual discourses and their moral debate. They ultimately concluded that the actions of the king were best described as tyranny, because they could not be honestly described any other way. Having come to such a serious and reasoned conclusion, their path was charted—unknown as to its outcome—but certain as to its demand upon them. Mr. President, we are doing what Americans have done before. (More >>>)
The New CCS Message BoardPresented to Rep. Josh Shapiro, suggestions to reduce the State budget:
1- Furlough non-essential state
workers, without pay, for up
to 7 days, staggering depts.
2- Furlough the legislature, without
pay, for the same
amount of time as the employees. 7 days
3- Reduce the car allowances for all
legislators to a
maximum of $300.00 per month.
4- Require the legislature to pay for
part of their health
insurance, much like the rest of the citizens of the state.
5- Taxpayers should be reimbursed for
the $1 million paid to
Vince Fumo’s lawyer for his defense. Additionally the
practice of paying legal
fees to defend legislators charged with criminal behavior should be
stopped.
6- Reduce the size of the
legislature. PA has one of the
biggest if not the biggest full time legislature in the nation.
7- Privatize the State Stores.
