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

Tell Rick Warren to speak out against Uganda's anti-gay lawThe Ugandan government is just days away from adopting a draconian law criminalizing homosexuality. Gay and lesbian Ugandans could face life in prison or even the death penalty. Evangelical mega-church pastor Rick Warren has traveled to Uganda and preached against homosexuality and one of the Ugandan pastors who's led the fight for this horrific bill has spoken at Warren's conferences in the United States. So the last time the "Anti-Homosexuality Bill" was introduced in Uganda, human-rights activists successfully pressured Rick Warren into taking a public stand against the law. Faced with mounting international criticism, the Uganda government backed down -- until now. But this time around, Rick Warren is remaining conspicuously silent about the situation in Uganda, despite giving a number of high-profile interviews on other subjects. At a time when his voice could help save the lives of LGBT Ugandans, he's on CNN comparing being gay to giving in to a temptation to "punch a guy in the nose."199 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Michael Sherrard, Faithful America
