FIGHT RIGHT TO WORK & EMEG MGR LAWThe Republicans in Michigan have move on the Right to Work Law which is actually the right to less pay, the right to less or no retirement and the right to get fired with no explanation. The emergency manager law is destroying democracy when your vote is taken away by a dictator.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by MICHEL DUMAS III

Same Sex Marriage in UtahI support making allowing same-sex marriage in Utah and making sexual orientation a protected class.

End 'Stellar Wind' Program Spying On U.S. CitizensIt is long past time to end the secret Stellar Wind' program (OK'd by President Bush after 9/11) that the NSA/FBI uses to conduct surveillance of US citizens internet communications/e-mail. The program was exposed by Whistle-blower Wm Binney! This program is clearly unconstitutional but far from it being ended by President Obama at this time, a huge storage facility is currently being completed near Boulder CO for storing data from this ongoing program! !5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Neil Hunt

Immigration & Same Sex CouplesMy partner is Australian. She cannot apply for residency in the US based on our relationship. We are therefore forced to spend longer periods of time out of my country than in it. Thousands of same sex couples face the same dilemma. A dilemma not shared by straight couples whose marriages are recognized federally.301 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Diane Sullivan

WI Act 10 Anticollective Bargaining LawWisconsin Act 10 essentially eliminates collective bargaining for general public employees, but allows public safety employees to be exempt. The lack of the right to bargain does not preclude the existance of a right to be treated evanhandedly as employees. The employer cannot have it both ways. When corporations are deemed to be people for the purpose of campaign contributions (US Supremem Court Citizens United case), unions should be deemed to be people too. It should be a constitutional right to assemble into a union and be able to bargain with your employer, public OR private. .402 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Larry Legro

Governor of MichiganA vote for or a signature on the Right to Work legislation in Michigan is a vote against not just the unions, but all middle and lower income workers, and against democracy as we know it in the United States. I have lived in countries without the worker rights we did possess. I know what an impoverished and exploited working class looks like. I know that workers in right to work states make significantly less than workers in other states. I know that workers in right to work states have 53% more worker related injuries than workers in other states. It sickens me to see you, the Governor of Michigan, dismantle worker rights in Michigan.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by lavinma

ELECTORAL COLLEGE FOR PA?State Senator Pileggi not happy enough that PA, despite voting for more Democrats in US congress sent more Republicans due to gerrymandering; Now wants PA elections run like the Electorial College. One vote should count: this scenario would have given the winner(O"Bama) 12 votes & the loser( Romney) 8 votes. No wonder PA is rated 6 in most corrupt legislatures.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Janice Glass
