Alan will fight for your right to be represented
Real Election Reform--let voters rank their choices 1,2,3 on "instant runoff" ballots, so you can vote for third party candidates and not worry about "throwing away" your vote. No more being forced to vote for one of the two "electable" evils. And we need "Fair Share Voting" (proportional representation) so more voices are heard in the Legislature.
Responsible Corporate Citizenship--prevent corporations (and sports teams) from playing off one state or nation against another! Demand that foreign trade deals like NAFTA and the Multilateral Agreement on Investments (MAI) do not give away our government's power to protect our health, our environment, and our jobs.

Alan's Reform vision also includes:
Term limits, no PAC contributions, and electoral reform, so we get citizen legislators instead of arrogant, oversure career politicians.
Move power and resources back to local communities, schools, families and individuals.
Advocate hope and change for 20-year olds whose downsized pay checks and two-job work lives lock them out of prosperity and out of the political process.
Balance freedom and civility in our public speech and public spaces.
Straight talk about the tough issues without fear or favor--we can only solve our problems if we talk about them respectfully person-to-person across the boundaries of race, gender, age, and sexual orientation!
Demand government programs that work, and use tax dollars effectively.
Make social programs and public life better by promoting healthy personal and community values--self-sufficiency, hard work, education, the specialness of every individual, and the rights and property of others.
No new entitlements and rights, and no tax cuts, until we have our budgets under control and our social fabric mended.
Let Alan know what you think!
