• Restoration of moratorium/Abolition of death penalty in Gambia
    Nine death-row inmates were executed in Gambia and further 38 are being threatened with the same. Although the death penalty is used in many countries, the absence of transparent due processes and competent judicial institutions, coupled with ambiguous constitutional provisions relating to the death penalty, make it unsafe for its continued retention in Gambia.

  • RECOVERING FREEDOM
    MY PETITION IS ABOUT ABOLISHING THE PATRIOT ACT, THAT IS AN INSULT TO THE INTELLIGENCE AND AN INSULT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, SUCH PATRIOT ACT WAS CREATED ONLY TO BE USED AS AN EXCUSE TO CONTROL THE CITIZENS AFTER THE 9-11 OAX AND TO INVADE IRAK.

  • Stand with Bede: Tell American Airlines discrimination of children with Down syndrome is Un-American
    American Airlines prevented Bede, a teenager with Down syndrome, from flying first class. He and his family were forced to change planes and were seated in the last row of coach with a buffer of empty seats. This type of blatant discrimination is unacceptable.

  • Medicaid in Georgia
    To refuse the help from the Federal Government to those most in need is to choose to keep them struggling under your watch. Governor Deal, do the right thing for the right reasons, regardless of politics. These are citizens of your state, and they need the help. To refuse "the least of these" is to refuse Jesus, as a Governor who claims his Christian faith as a political platform.

  • Photo Voter ID Suppression
    It takes my right away to vote secretly. It is costly for our government to set this in place for two reasons: costly and useless as it will not stop fraud. Pictures can be altered, addresses can be faked. Going into vote is a privilege and not to be determined who we are. Our deficit is high enough so now we want to make it worse.
