The Downsize DC Agenda
Tell Congress What To Do
Our Heresies
Join our campaigns to Downsize DC...
End corporate income taxes
This will benefit YOU, even if you hate corporations.
The Read the Bills Act of 2011 (RTBA)
Make Congress read their bills before they pass them.
Get Out of Afghanistan
Time to declare victory and get out!
Protect Wikileaks
Please carefully consider the following heresy: Wikileaks should be protected from State retaliation.
DownsizeDC.org's "One Subject at a Time Act" (OSTA)
Stop Congress from combining unrelated bills.
Repeal Obamacare
Obamacare was a major reason that voters rejected the Democrats. Now the Republicans must pay for their victory by repealing Obamacare.
I am not afraid
Tell Congress you've already won your war on terror, by NOT being afraid.
Social Security
The old and the young must protect each other.
Abolish the TSA
The TSA's porno scanners and "enhanced pat-downs" have caused outrage across the nation. But the real outrage is the very existence of the TSA—a totally unnecessary make-work federal agency. Please tell Congress to get rid of the TSA.
Cap The Debt!
You may be able to cut trillions of dollars from the federal budget, with just a few moments of effort.
Make your health insurance more affordable
Permit individuals and employers to buy insurance regulated by the state of their choice.
Help End the Mexican Civil War
Bring peace to both Mexico and the U.S. by ending drug prohibition.
Ask your elected representatives to pass DownsizeDC.org's “Write the Laws Act” (WTLA)
Don't let Congress delegate its law-making powers to the Executive Branch bureaucracy.
Repeal the Patriot Act
It doesn't protect you. It endangers you.
Free Competition in Currency Act
Stop inflation, bubbles, and recessions by permitting free market money to compete with Federal Reserve Notes.
Restore consumer controlled health care
True health care reform requires less government involvement, not more.
Fight Deficit Spending
Cut Congress's pay if they run a deficit.
The "Enumerated Powers Act" (EPA)
Make Congress cite the Constitutional authority for each law it passes.
Repeal the REAL ID Act
Say no to a national ID card and centralized ID databases.
Protect and Improve Health Savings Accounts
Pay less to your insurance company and the government, and have more money to fund your own healthcare.
Bring the Troops Home
Are we really protected by having U.S. troops stationed around the world?
Cap-and-trade is not the way to control carbon emissions.
It didn't work in Europe.
Stay Out of Libya!
Do you want to be involved in another foreign war?
Tell Congress to obey the Constitution
The Constitution has only one real enforcement mechanism. You!
End Aid to Dependent Dictators
End all foreign aid, especially to dictators.
Audit the Fed!
Would you like to know what the Federal Reserve is doing behind closed doors?
End Subsidies
Subsidies serve special interests, not the general interest.
End them!
Repeal the campaign finance laws
The campaign finance laws are really incumbent protection laws. Repeal them and you'll regain the power to fire your elected representatives.
No Bailouts!
Oppose corporate welfare.
Tell Congress to cut federal spending
If you think Congress wastes too much money . . .
End Asset Forfeiture
Stop legalized stealing by government bureaucrats
Reduce regulations
Tell Congress to cut the red tape.
Hands off the Internet!
The Internet works, without State regulation. Politicians should leave it alone.
Abolish Federal Education Spending
Federal involvement in education is unconstitutional and harmful.
Tell your government that you know they did wrong.
This is where you file your complaints about government incompetence, corruption, and crime.
Tell Congress to cut federal taxes
If you think you pay too much and get too little . . .
Pass the 72-hour rule
It will require Congress to post
some
of their bills online before they vote. By itself, the rule is practically worthless, but it will help pave the way for DownsizeDC.org's "Read the Bills Act."
Preserve the Freedom to Farm
New regulations threaten to strangle the family farm.
Impeach the President
Asking Congress to use the impeachment process is another way to withdraw consent.
Repeal Indefinite Detention
A new law permits the federal government to lock up both Americans and foreigners forever, without charges or trial.
Make the FDA Advisory, Not Mandatory
FDA coercion does more harm than good. The FDA should serve, not rule.
No Conflict with Iran
If you oppose conflict with Iran, tell Congress.
Shut Down the Energy Department
Our energy needs are too important to be left up to politicians and bureaucrats.
Oppose the E-Verify National ID System
House bill H.R. 2885 creates de facto National ID system that infringes on your right to work, cripples small business, and encourages identity theft. Tell Congress to oppose it!
Bulldoze HUD
Federal housing policy breeds poverty and injustice.
Outlaw Stings
Take away the crimes initiated by agents of The State, and there may not be much left in the way of real threats.
