In 2006 Mr. Gould (my former employer) brought many false allegations against me in order for my Top Secret Security Clearance to be suspended because my wife who was ill and pregnant (my son was born with Autism) at the time wanted me to return from Iraq. Mr. Gould wanted me to stay in Iraq but I left with his blessings after he saw I was not going to stay ( my family comes first and this was an emergency) but Mr. Gould was so upset he began retaliating against me with bitter lies. Judge Leonard of the Department of Hearings and Appeals finally gave me an appointment to appeal my case in 2009 (although I started the documents for the hearing in regards to my suspended Top Secret Clearance in 2006, whatever happen to due process) but he did not abide by Executive Order 10865 which is detailed below. In response to Greene, President Eisenhower signed Executive Order 10865 on February 20, 1960. Executive Order 10865 requires a hearing in which contractor employees would be given the opportunity to appear before the decision-maker to confront and cross-examine witnesses and attempt to rebut the Government's case. Not all cases go to a full hearing because a clearance Applicant has the choice of having a hearing or having the case determined on a record composed of only documentary evidence. I chose to cross-examine all people who brought charges against me and was under the impression they would be at the hearing but they were not. When I appealed the decision of Judge Leonard to the Department of Hearings and Appeals I was again denied my clearance based on the two false allegations by Mr. Gould, but I could not prove them to be wrong because Mr. Gould was not at the hearing, where I could cross examine him and prove not only the 25 other false allegations he told on me which were thrown out by Judge Leonard were indeed lies but also the only two allegations (false allegations by Mr. Gould) which Judge Leonard saw as being reason enough to deny me my clearance. I have five children and a wife who have suffered tremendously because of Mr. Gould false allegations and Judge Leonard decision not to follow Executive Order 10865. Knowbody is above the law and for 25 false allegations to be thrown out during a Top Secret Clearance Hearing in itself is an injustice because in order to receive a clearance you have to be honest and truthful throughout and Mr. Gould has a Top Secret clearance for his company and he continues to work for our Government which is an insult to our Justice and Security System.

It has been over 3 years that no one could go to the "Pihana Kalani Heiau" in Waiehu, Maui. This Heiau has been in many of Maui's families' care since its birth, which were still under Maui's Native Families who have spiritual and genealogical connections to its Chiefly Lineages, many of which are connected to our Native Families. Some of our Native Kanaka of Maui have their "Piko" or "Umbellical Cord" placed there. I for one have mine placed there and can't attend momentarily, along with our Kupuna. It is very frustrating trying to uphold family traditions such as these and not be able to practice or visit a landmark of our forefathers. The Department of Land & Natural Resources (DLNR) needs to open its "public access" to accommodate Spiritual Practices, Cultural Observance and Traditional Dances, as well as the many tourists who visit our islands. Please help us attain this goal to restore daily public access to the "Pihana Kalani Heiau" in Waiehu, Maui by signing this petition.

I believe strongly that if every citizen voted we would truly be a democracy rather than a plutocracy.

Descendants of Mission Natives strongly oppose the canonization of Junipero Serra. Pope Francis recently apologized to Native peoples in South America for past inhumane treatment and colonization; yet our ancestors were suppressed, dominated and enslaved by Serra and considered collateral damage to the Church and State. The canonization will not celebrate Hispanics (since Serra and his Inquisition Conquistadors were foreign invaders), welcome Native Peoples back to the Catholic Church, or honor our ancestors. It will re-awaken the Inquisition Doctrine of Discovery; a very dark, and brutal time in the history of the Catholic Church and Civilization. The passage of time has not made the reality of dominations and genocide of Indigenous Californians go away, nor has it made the Mastermind of the brutal Mission system a Saint. We respectfully ask you to urge the Pope to vacate this plan and open meaningful dialogue with California Nations, in California, before his visit to Washington D.C.. We do not want an apology; rather, we need immediate action from the Vatican to rescind the Doctrine of Discovery and to recognize the inhumane treatment of our ancestors. This canonization is in direct conflict with the pope's position on protecting indigenous peoples in his encyclical on the environment. If Pope Francis is sincere in his intentions towards Native peoples, he will abandon the canonization of Junipero Serra now.

William is a 57 year old Disabled Veteran ON OXYGEN , ASSAULTED by Jacksonville Florida Police. March 15th 2014, Police arrived at Bills house on a "Well Person Check." Bill came out and told Police he was fine. Police wanted Bill to come with them. They had no warrant.... he said he was fine and refused to leave. THAT WAS HIS LEGAL RIGHT! Instead of leaving , Police held Bill hostage for 18 hours inside his home. They SHUT HIS POWER OFF , FLOODED HIS HOME WITH LIGHTS AND LOUD NOISES. 18 HOURS LATER THEY PUNCHED A HOLE IN BILL'S HOME AND THREW A PHONE IN.... THEN TEAR GAS! (Did I mention he was on OXYGEN?) Bill came out unable to breathe and dropped to all fours choking... Police ordered him to get up but he obviously could not. They surround him and shot him with rubber bullets. Bill falls sideways unable to move or breathe now.... and they follow up with tazing him . Bill spent 4 days in the HOSPITAL, and has been in jail over 300 days now, FOR DOING NOTHING! Bill's income has been cut. He has requested 3 times for indigent status.... 3 times the Judge has ignored it. His first trial was a DEADLOCK. His second trial was to start last Monday.... The Judge CANCELLED COURT AND RE SET THE DATE FOR MARCH! Many times they have offered to let Bill free if he would just plead guilty. BILL WILL NOT PLEAD GUILTY TO SOMETHING HE DID NOT DO! WHAT IS BILL BEING CHARGED WITH? ASSAULTING A POLICE OFFICER! WHERE AND WHEN DID THIS ASSAULT TAKE PLACE? AND, if they were there on a well person check,,,, why haven't they taken Bill to a psychiatrist?

It's a proven fact, communities that value diversity and promote equality see an influx of business, outside funding, and enhancement to the overall quality of life for all of its citizens. These are your friends, neighbors, children, co-workers, family; who all need and deserve the ability to work towards achieving the american dream.

With skyrocketing rents and low vacancy rates, we all know how hard it is to find housing these days in California. Why then, does California allow landlords to discriminate against tenants with Section 8 vouchers? The tenants have the money to pay the rent, but it's common in advertisements for apartments to see "NO Section 8." California law does not expressly ban Section 8 discrimination, emboldening landlords to blatantly discriminate against low-income tenants . Sign our petition: California must ban section 8 discrimination.

I see no reason why this information should be kept from the public, especially given MLK's historical importance and the relevance of his work in relation to ongoing racial strife in the country and the world.

My husband is currently serving a life sentence in Mississippi Prison. Conjugal visits ended February 2014. Having personal time with our family will allow us to preserve our family bond.

This petition is about civil rights abuses upon developmentally disabled citizen applicants and recipients by California Regional Centers, and a biased director of the California Dept. of Developmental Disablitiy Services.

As architect for a minority non profit housing operation, I observed a Federal Court without jurisdiction to hear a case hold conduct it for more then six years at great cost to HUD where the City that sued its own housing agency and the agency were both found to have "dirty hands" in an joint City-HUD audit; where the case named the a defendant wrongly which should have in any court caused the case to be immediately dismissed; where the defendant was not permitted to have an attorney; where no trial was held; where the $25 to $27 million of HUD funds (at least) that went missing or misappropriated was waived because the DOJ attorney said "now we don't have to investigate", then was shortly after appointed to the same Federal Court; and where a sanction was issued and I am threatened with jail by the Federal judge whose wife, also a Judge, laid the sanctions against me for exercising my due process rights by raising these matters. This Case is docketed at the US Supreme Court but unless there is wide public support the case will NEVER get read....As pro se, in forma pauperis no attorney asked will represent these issues. The Supreme Court understandably picks cases where they know the legal representative knows what he or she is doing, whether or not the issues have merit. This case explains the unseen background as to why a Ferguson, Missouri can happen.
