Bring back civil rights to the forefront and pass major legislation as such. Here is a list of major legislation (not only civil rights):

  • Passing a law strictly defining corporations are not people, investigations, arrests, punitive damages and dismissal of political representatives at the federal level who engage in having talks in lobbyists.
  • Passing a law requiring the release of all politicians tax records on personal and business finances.
  • Passing a law designating that unions are not exempt from antitrust laws.
  • Passing legislation allowing stem cell research, marijuana, explicitly legal.
