To help us ring in the New Year, we asked our community of independent-minded voters on Facebook to suggest one New Year's resolution for Congress.

While many responses showcased dissatisfaction with the current Congress, asking for their resignation, hundreds of independent-minded voters identified issues that will likely be at the forefront of political debate in 2014.
