Vote Against Public Employee Domestic Partner Benefits Restriction ActRecently, the Michigan House of Representatives passed HB 4770, the Public Employee Domestic Partner Benefits Restriction Act, and HB 4771, an amendment to 1947 PA 336. Together, these bills seek not only to prevent our universities and colleges, schools and public services from providing health benefits to the domestic partners of public employees, but they also seek to strip health benefits from people who have already negotiated contracts extending these benefits to domestic partners. This legislation is not only morally reprehensible but also economically myopic.11,174 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Seth Wescott

Justice for Barry Deloatch-New Brunswick NJBarry Deloatch, was an unarmed man fatally shot by New Brunswick Police. By signing this petition you are letting our Police Department, and our local, state, and US government know that It is unacceptable to be harassed, brutalized, or killed at the hands of the people that are hired with our tax dollars to protect us!532 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Donita Jackson

Jusitice for Barry, Justice for AllBarry Deloatch was killed by New Brunswick Police on September 22, 2011. The New Brunswick Police Department and Middlesex County Prosecutor Bruce Kaplan have been completely uncooperative in telling Barry's parents, brothers, sisters, fiance, and children why he was cornered in an alley and murdered. Sign this petition to demand that Lieutenant JT Miller and Bruce Kaplan end this suspicious, ambiguous silence and give a grieving family answers. Update: It took 48hrs to find out that Barry had a stick. Those "investigating" this case are insane if they think the family and friends of Barry will be placated with a "stick and scuffle" story.475 of 500 SignaturesCreated by C Daniels

Rick Santorum should apologize to Stephen HillAt the September 22, 2011 Republican Debate, Former United States Senator Rick Santorum not only declared that if he was elected President he would re-institute Don't Ask Don't Tell, but also stood idly by as the audience booed an American solider on active duty in a war zone. Rick Santorum should publicly apologize to US Soldier Stephen Hill.60 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Becca Adnerson

Label GMO'sSome people do not want to consume, use as drugs, or be injected with GMO's and while the FDA has stated that it is not up to citizens to decide what foods and drugs are safe, it is the FDA's job to regulate these things. The bill of rights ensure freedom of religion for all in the United States and GMO's are against certain religious doctrines. There are scriptures mentioned in the Christian bible and Hindu texts as well warning against mixing the blood of humans with animals and other related issues. Since GMO's often use animal, bacterial, and viral DNA from animals, people who want to follow these texts should have a religious right to know what is in their food, drugs, and vaccines. Please label all GMO's including what type (animal, viral and from what animal, bacterial and from what animal) of DNA and/or genes that have been added, removed, promoted, inhibited, moved, rearranged, replicated, changed in any way, or corrupted so that people can follow their doctrine freely without inhibiting the rights of corporations to sell these products.60 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Heather Davis

Civil Unions are great, but DE needs marriage equalityThis May 11 was an historic day as Governor Jack Markell signed Civil Unions into law in Delaware. That's great, but it falls far short of full civil rights for lesbian and gay couples. Only full marriage equality will do that. Sign our petition demanding that Delaware enact full marriage equality in 2012.116 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Michael morrill

Ask the UW-Madison Administration to Modify Student ID CardsCurrently, most student identification cards, including those issued by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, are not compliant with 2011 Wisconsin Act 23, commonly known as the Voter ID law. The Administration could modify our ID cards to make them valid for voting purposes. We're asking them to move on this issue as soon as possible, so that students will have fewer obstacles to voting in the spring 2011 elections.262 of 300 SignaturesCreated by The Young Progressives
