Economic Justice for all AmericansWe are asking the United States Government to make good on the economic acts to empower black Americans and other races as they agreed to do. To save the American economy our government gave bail outs to save America's economy. We are asking for the American people to be bailed out of these hard economic times. As for the black nation of people living in America, we demand economic justice for 200 years of slavery, 120 years of seperate by equal laws and 47 years mass incarcerations and unjust laws, we demand that the economic playing field be equal and every family be given economic freedom in place of land ownership, that was to be given under the 40 acres and mule and other local laws that were not given.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lionel Gantt SR.

Protest The Marriage AmendmentNo religious belief should be able to amend the Constitution! The United States was founded on FREEDOM OF RELIGION and quoting scripture that belongs to one religious belief system and allowing that one religion to make amendments opens this country up for all sorts of amendments.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by tal

Democrats: Pull the National Convention from Charlotte, NCOn May 8, 2012, the state of North Carolina passed an amendment to its constitution that would ban any "domestic legal union" other than marriage between one man and one woman. This amendment will have devastating consequences for NC families, gay or straight, in terms of access to healthcare, higher taxes, protections against domestic violence, death benefits, pensions, hospital visitation rights, etc. We call upon the Democratic National Committee to take a stand for justice and equality by pulling the 2012 National Convention out of Charlotte, NC.540 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Morgan Johnson

Move the Democratic National ConventionNow that the state of North Carolina has codified hate in its constitution, a stand needs to be taken to show that this is not acceptable behavior. The Democratic National Convention should be moved from Charlotte, NC to a location in a state that fully supports equal rights.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Meeker

Mr President: Stop "Evolving" and Support Gay MarriageVice President Biden's recent comments in support of marriage equality set off a storm of calls for President Obama to stop dancing around his own support for full rights for LGBT citizens. Obama's continuing reliance on his statement that he is "evolving" so he won't offend swing voters in key battleground states is unnecessary because 50% of Americans now support gay marriage.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Ervin

TAKE A STAND, PUT AN END TO HUMAN TRAFFICKING.Many people will be slow to advocate such a wonderful opportunity to help and serve as this because they feel that crimes like these only happen in foreign countries and territories; certainly not as domestic and close to home as their own city. Unfortunately, that is not the case. Victims can easily be your child, or a child of someone close to you, if precautions are not taken to stop the traffickers and abductors. But how CAN you help? The goal, as you have read, is to start the process of getting pieces of legislation into the law books in our state. When that happens, we can start using the law to prosecute criminals and bring to them the justice that they are evading. To get state lawmakers to notice our efforts, we need to show a concern of the people, and in order to do that we need to have pledges- signatures that show a support for the cause. For this reason, ONE BY ONE, INC, its founder, and its supporters need YOU to sign the petition to help enable us to get noticed. You do make a difference because every signature matters!159 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Briana Ross
