You need to listen to the families from CT because they are speaking for many of the citizens in this country. Congress should be working for the People not for NRA. Congress has obligation to take EVERY measure possible to keep US citizens from being gunned down by assault weapons. I

Fake IDs.
Federal prisoners are using the internet to get photos off Facebook and make fake IDs, which they then sell to make money to buy drugs in prison. Why are they allowed to use the internet? Where is that in the Bill of Rights? Also, how are they able to get drugs in prison? No searches of visitors

1500 Page Immigration Bill
Please stop the Democratic Amnesty Bill. We cannot let this happen. President Obama pushed for amnesty for illegal aliens in his first term. Now Obama's 2nd-term dream is America's nightmare. The Regime is plotting to sneak through a backdoor boiler-room amnesty scheme to import millions of illegal

Where Are We Headed Now!
Forcing Obama to be alittle transparent and as his works become predictable, even by the public, can the subbliminal arguements be thwarted quick enough and long enough to revert the causal onlslaught? I think so, but does America see yet the lies never stop; only an overlaid allusion of honest care

Gun Control
I just read where the Republicans plan to filibuster the background checks issue. I am a staunch conservative but I DO NOT understand why the Republicans are against background checks. They are a common sense approach to controlling who can or cannot get a gun. I am also for limiting ammo.

Savings + Capital Spending = Growth
Any smart and real world economist (i.e, not you, Paul Krugman) knows that growth comes from people saving money and then investing in companies that use the capital for new plant and equipment to drive growth. We need to see aggressive programs from the GOP to help here - ASAP.

The GOP & Jobs? Sounds Of Silence
We have 24 Million unemployed in this country. We had dismal job growth #'s out last week. What are you and the GOP proposing to fix this? Nothing. This should be your sweet spot. You should have a major Jobs Summit and get four or five specific actions to take now.

Gun Laws
Mr. Speaker: I watched the 60 Minutes CBS special on Sandy Hook tonight. How can ANYONE be against background checks, limiting ammunition, outlawing straw purchases and making gun shows comply with the laws? These laws are common sense. I am an independent conservative gun rights advocate but th

We Need Private Sector Jobs Growth
The jobs growth numbers yesterday were appalling. You need to get on the stick now and cut a big deal with Obama to control spending and end this sequester nonsense. Business leaders need certainty on taxes and regulations. If they get that, they'll invest and hire.

Psychological Warfare...
Say no to Obama forcing teens to comply with abortion pill as a way to bring them down to his level of depredation. This is unthinkable we have allowed this administration to push a agenda that is so unworthy to our Country's adults, much less our children. Dealing with an abortion is not for teens.

Ban Obama And Loose US...
Bans are formed for the prohibition of activities within a certain political territory. Some see this as a negative act (equating it to a form of censorship or discrimination) and others see it as maintaining the "status quo". Bans in commerce are referred to as embargos (... from atrocious acts)

Time For The Grand Compromise
"There you go again". (Thank you Mr. Reagan!). Yep, I opened up my Wall Street Journal app this morning and learned that Obama is bringing in another tax increase and of course doesn't have any spending slow downs to match. Please reach out to Simpson & Bowles and get them to broker a deal now.

Gun Control
Dear Mr. Speaker: I consider myself a conservative independent. I have been a staunch supporter of gun rights, but the more I consider them the more I wonder: Why must we have any weapons that have the capacity for more than 5 bullets? I was a hunter and never needed more than one bullet at a
