Governor Cuomo: Please support a "SECOND CHANCE ACT" for 1st time, non-violent felony offenders!After my mother died in front of my face at the age of 14 I was left to fend for myself in the streets with no guidance or positive role models. Not surprisingly, by the youthful age of 19 I was charged and subsequently convicted/sentenced as a first time non-violent felony offender for unlawful possession of a controlled substance in the 4th/5th degree and sentenced to 6 years in prison, and a lifetime of state sponsored legal discrimination in virtually every sector of my life (e.g., I can not get a decent/affordable apartment or decent job to feed my family because of this blemish on my record from when I was just a teenager). I have not been charged with or convicted of a felony crime since, and I am hereby calling on Governor Cuomo and the State Legislature to give me and the hundreds of thousands of other real New Yorkers like me a "second chance" at being a "first class citizen". As the political climates tend to change in Albany every 4 years or so, this may be our only last chance to get this legislation passed AND I NEED YOUR HELP BY SIGNING THIS PETITION AND VOICING YOUR SUPPORT FOR THIS MEASURE!196 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Tyson Augustis Poulos

Tell Jack In The Box to stop Homophobic Ads and Practices!Jack In The Box, who has the lowest rating possible with the Human Rights Campaign, currently is showing an ad on television showing a man marrying a piece of bacon. The ad clearly begins with the homophobic concept of a man gently telling his mother that the object of his love is not a woman, then proceeds to show him wanting to marry bacon. This plays directly into the hands of homophobic fears that if you allow same sex couples to marry, then next will come wanting to marry your pet, or even wanting to marry bacon. This fear-mongering advertising should end. Also, Jack In The Box should strive to add more diversity training and protections within their institution to raise their Human Rights Campaign score and further correctly align with modern human rights.75 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Judy Saint

Tell The Recording Academy: Stop Promoting Domestic Violence By Allowing Convicted Abusers To Per...Last night at the Grammy Awards, the Recording Academy allowed Chris Brown, a convicted perpetrator of domestic violence, to take the stage and perform twice.

ICYMI: Here's why Chris Brown shouldn't have been asked to perform at the Grammy Awards last night: http://on.mtv.com/n3eVlh60 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Marika Shaub

Limit the LobbyistsIf we cannot forbid lobbying, we must demand laws that limit lobbyists to their salesman roll. They can sell their goods but the lobbyists or the company or organization they represent cannot pass along bribes to our political leaders in any form. We must demand that this be considered bribery and punishable with very harsh prison terms to the lobbyist and CEO of the organization or company that he represents.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Demers

Deaf Civil RightsThis petition is designed to express the concerns of Deaf persons in the Deaf community. What is of major concern is the way we have been treated by the majority in society. Specifically, there has been little - if any - input sought from Deaf persons concerning the use of cochlear implants. These devices have been used without the input of persons who are Deaf or who have an interest in the Deaf community. As a result, the rights of persons who are deaf have been infringed upon by the actions stemming from the prejudice and unverified assumptions of the cochlear implant industry. This is a violation of civil rights in the medical and/or surgical implementation of unfounded procedures. We need to stop implanting any children or Deaf children; that's what the whole issue is about. If you share this concern please sign below. Any comments are welcomed with no neutral comments, please. Deaf persons - especially Deaf children need to have their civil rights respected. The infringement of the rights of Deaf persons - especially Deaf children needs to stop. This includes a full recognizing the use of the use of American Sign Language or their language. It will go to Deaf Civil Right March for them to see how many Deaf persons sign it up for this petition; that might help, too. TIME FOR US TO HAVE OUR DEAF CIVIL RIGHTS and DEAF HUMAN RIGHTS for Deaf Diversity of all ages!!!!!1,587 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Diane White
