 | Ensure a living wage by increasing the | |
| minimum wage to $12 now and $14 by 2012. This is a human right. |
| Real electoral reform, providing public | |
| funding based on the Maine example. Citizens have the constitutional right to vote for candidates who represent their needs and not those of large corporations. |
| Restoration of the Glass-Steagall Act which | |
| prevented banks and other financial institutions from investing our savings and retirement funds in unsound portfolios. Impose a moratorium on home foreclosures with renegotiation of mortgages based on current property values and interest rates. |
| End the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan | |
| by 2010. These unnecessary wars have cost taxpayers one trillion dollars thus far, and the toll in deaths and injuries to both civilians and our troops are unjustifiable. The military budget should be cut by 30% by 2012. These savings to be used primarily for care for veterans! |
| Resolve conflicts through international | |
| consensus rather than forcefully and unilaterally. Restore membership in the International Court of Justice. |
| Enact and enforce higher standards for our | |
| environment. New technology must be employed to produce renewable energy and curtail global warming. |
| End torture, rendition, and the death | |
| penalty. |
| Support of re-negotiation of trade treaties to | |
| stop corporations from exploitation of workers in poor nations imposing unsafe working conditions and environmental damage. |
| Increase the number of inspectors in | |
| agencies enforcing health, safety, and environmental laws. Make the penalties for violations serious deterrents; the collection of fines prompt. |
| End any and all use of weapons that can | |
| cause the death of civilians and environmental damage such as depleted uranium, cluster bombs, white phosphorus, drones, and land mines. |
| Support the “Employee Free Choice Act” so | |
| that workers can join unions without being subjected to employer intimidation. |
| Provide foreign aid only to states not in | |
| violation of international law. |
| Tax corporate incomes at the same rate as | |
| individual incomes. Close all loopholes allowing them to avoid taxes. |
| IF YOU AGREE, VOTE FOR THE CANDIDATE WHO SUPPORTS POLICIES THAT REPRESENT YOU, THE PEOPLE. |
