More details to this question:
My children live with their father. He has physical custody, and we share joint custody. In most cases, their step mom doles out the punishments. She decided what discipline measure needs to be taken, for how long, and even has the discussion with my children. In most cases dad isn't there and when he is, he sits there quietly while she does the talking. I feel like my children need to be raised by a parent, him or me, not a step parent. Is there anything I can do about this?

Very little if anything, in their house, his AND her rules.

You can try and change the custody arrangement, but I doubt very much that the court will change custody based on who is doing the disciplining. Families live their lives how they see fit and just because it isn't the way you would do it does not mean it is wrong.
