Gun Control with InsuranceI have grandchildren in school. There safety is up-most in my mind. Forbidding guns never gets anywhere due to the 2nd amendment. Maybe private industry could do the job and thus gain some support from Republicans.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Teach

End the drone attacks in PakistanOn October 30, 2006, a US-controlled drone struck a school in Pakistan and killed 83 people. None of them were militants. Only 3 of them were over the age of 20. The other 80 killed were children. This murder of civilians was barbaric, but it wasn't a one-time occurrence. In the past 8 years, US military drones have targeted Pakistani schools, funerals, religious centers. They have torn families apart. Pakistani civilians live in terror that their community will be destroyed. Their children wake up scared to go to school. Yes, the drone strikes kill militants. But just as often, they miss (or hit) and kill civilians. Shatter homes. Rip apart families and leave mothers crying for children maimed or murdered. And, even though Bush started the practice, over 80% of drone strikes have occurred under Obama. It is time for this violence to stop.We as a nation are better than that, and it is time for us to stand up for our principles. As our president, Obama needs to take a stand. He fought for gun control to end mass shootings. He fought for gay rights and the rights of workers. Now, I am calling on him to end the drone war and stand up for civilian rights.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Julian Adorney

No More AssaultsIt's time for Congress to stand up to the National Rifle Association and ban assault weapons. We can not afford to ignore the damage multiple rounds of ammunition inflict upon the innocent.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cindy Fidler

Repeal the Second AmendmentThis petition is to the Congress to begin the process of repealing the second amendment. The founding father's made a mistake in the language of this amendment that makes it ill suited for our current world and we need to address this clearly now. We cannot allow the rights of gun owners to overwhelm the rights of our children to be safe.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Michael Repp

Bring Corporate Prayer Back Into Our Public SchoolsWe have seen a drastic deterioration of values in America since we allowed corporate prayer to be taken out of our public schools. To make our school systems more safe, we should allow corporate prayers of all faiths to be offered in all public schools and those students who would like to refrain from prayers should be allowed the same freedom.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Grace B.

The NRA Has No Place In Helping Stop Gun ViolenceIn the wake of the tragic shootings in Newtown, CT, the National Rifle Association has made it perfectly clear that they deserve no place in our national conversation on how best to address mass shootings and gun violence. Let's make sure that Vice President Joe Biden does not consult with them as part of his investigation into the most effective ways to address the devastating impact of easy access to high powered weapons on our communities.213 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Beth Allen
