President Obama: Honor your presidential oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution--V...Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011, or H.R. 347, is a bill that seems to be designed to outlaw protests near government buildings and restrict the Constitutionally protected right of American citizens to petition the government for a redress of their grievances. This bill is in direct violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America. The First Amendment states in concise language that: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." As of March 1st, 2012, the bill has been passed to President Barack Obama to be signed into law or vetoed. According to the laws of the legislative process, the President has 10 days to sign or veto the bill. Please, President Obama, honor your Presidential Oath, protect the Constitution and veto this bill.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jordan Buck

Clear Channel: Keep Rush Limbaugh and Freedom of SpeechThe left constantly attempts to assert their right to free speech; yet attempts to trample the rights of the conservatives across the nation. All speech is protected; no matter how distasteful some people may find it. Make it known to Clear Channel that the silent majority will no longer remain silent.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by B Pettyjohn

Nullify The NDAAWhen the National Defense Authorization Act was signed by Pres. Obama on Dec 31st not only did it lay out military spending but it also allowed for indefinite detention of Americans. (with out due process of law as laid out in our Constitution). Minnesota should stand up against this UN-consitutional attack and nullify sections 1021 and 1022 of the NDAA.40 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Raya Newbold

OPEN GOVERNMENT NOT FOR SALE!!PLEASE KILL SB 2927 SD-2 OPEN GOVERNMENT NOT FOR SALE Donovan Dela Cruz is the author of Hawaii Senate Bill 2927. This is an outright assault on open government. Senate Bill 2927 exempts projects from public scrutiny, public collaboration, and accountability. It slams the door to public engagement but opens the doors for mischief to developers.27 of 100 SignaturesCreated by OPEN GOVERNMENT ALWAYS

Respect gay and lesbian rights in Idaho.Gays and lesbians deserve the same civil and political rights that we all enjoy. Government should not impede upon these rights. It is not the role of the government to decide who gets to love each other and who doesn't. We should recognize these marriages as valid and make them equal to any other marriage.2,205 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Trevor Memmott

US Congress and President: Fix the Indefinite Detention and Unconstitutional Parts of the NDAA 2012On March 1, 2012, Indefinite Detention became the law of the land! There are reasons to fear it will be used to restrict freedom of speech and assembly of US citizens. The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA 2012), now authorizes the US government to treat suspected terrorists by a different standard. Under this law, people, even US citizens, can be detained indefinitely by the US military and, according to recent statements by US Attorney General Eric Holder, even killed without a trial to prove their guilt. They can also be tried by a Military Commission (fewer due process rights and the Judge and “Jury” are military officers) and can be sent into the custody of foreign governments. These provisions are contrary to Constitutionally granted 5th and 6th Amendment rights of legal counsel, due process and speedy and public trial by an impartial jury. This petition asks the US Congress and the President, in compliance with their oath to support and defend the Constitution, to change the provisions of NDAA 2012 that authorize Government actions that are in violation of our Constitutional rights.

Do not disenfranchise votersThis petition is about preserving the rights of all Americans who choose to exercise their right to vote.Here in South Carolina, Gov. Haley has joined others in trying to deny citizens their constitutional right to vote.Being a Black man from the south, it particularly haunts me when I see elected officials trying to suppress voters rights.Too many people have fought and died for this right and privelege, and I will fight tooth and nail to preserve this right.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Charles Simmons
