• Move Demo Convention out of N. Carolina
    Since North Carolina voters decided to outlaw gay and straight domestic partnerships, plus gay marriages, let's petition the Democratic National Committee to move their Convention out of North Carolina and into some state that does have legal same sex marriage.

  • Save Community Services for People with Developmental Disabilities
    Community organizations across the State of California who serve people with disabilities are going to lose millions of dollars that they have been promised from the Department of Developmental Services. We need your voice to help us tell them NO! Enough broken promises, we need you to be held accountable to what you say.

  • Parent's right to be in parks with children in Orange County Ca.
    If a parent must register as a sex offender (regardless of offense....even a misdemeanor that happened 20 years ago) they can't be in public parks within Orange County with their child. This violates both the parent and child's rights! A parent is the front line protection for their child. Take that basic right away then we all can loose our other rights quite easily!

  • Stop political harassment in the workplace.
    We all know it is wrong to harass people at work about sex, religion, and race, so why is it ok to allow political harassment? Hate radio shock jocks all try to get their opponents angry, and stirred up, and while they have a right to say whatever they want, you have an equal right not to be distacted or offended in the workplace in fact in some workplaces this can actually be very dangerous. Hate talk radio in the workplace should be banned.

  • Ban Conservative Marriage in Maryland
    Like the great state of North Carolina, we are selecting a segment of the populace and urging our elected representatives to arbitrarily ban their ability to be legally recognized as a family. Sign here if this outrages you, you want to prevent bigots from reproducing, or you believe that people should mind their own business and stop using government to legislate morality.

  • The NRA Supports gun violence
    The NRA wants every U.S citizen should be armed. They want to turn the clock back to the wild wild west. How many innocent children and people die each year because of this Gun mentality? Who hunts with a hand gun or and AK47.

  • move the democratic convention out of NC
    North Carolina voted to ban gay marriage and even civil unions one day before President Obama announced his support for gay marriage. Having the Democratic convention in NC in September is not the way to follow up the President's proclamation. Because the convention brings in so much money for the state it's held in, it doesn't make sense to bankroll a state that opposes what most Democrats stand for. We probably won't win NC anyway, so let's go to Ohio, or Michigan, or Massachusetts, or just about anywhere but NC.

  • Let Florida have same-sex the rights to get married
    Is it fair to everyone in this world to hate against the LGBT community. Marriage and family should be privileged to everyone.

  • STOP VOTE SUPPRESSION
    The cynical Republican effort nationwide to keep minorities and college students from voting must be exposed. Their rationale of combating voter fraud is unsupported by any evidence of significant voter fraud anywhere in the United States.

  • Make Election Day a Paid National Holiday
    Electing the President of the United States is one of the most important events we participate in as free citizens of a democracy, and yet we have to "find time" to vote between job, parenting an other assorted responsibilities. If Election Day became a paid National Holiday, more citizens would have the opportunity to vote without the penalty of lost wages in the event of long election lines, bad weather, or employer intimidation. Our democracy will be more viable, because more citizens could participate, if Election Day were a paid National Holiday.

  • Change Congress & the Senate's benefit plan to Social Security
    Take away the pension plan for Congresspersons and Senators and put them on the Social Security Plan. They pay into the plan the receive back the same amount as anyone else would based on their salary and amount of years in the system. Under the current plan both the Congresspersons and Senators plus their spouse receive benefits for the rest of their lives, even if they only served one term. Treat everyone the same.
