How many times a government employee is terminated or retaliated against for reporting fraud, waste and abuse of taxpayers dollars or violations of public policies and unlawful activities by our public officials. We might find it necessary to report wrongdoing, but we should proceed with caution before blowing the whistle. My review of state-level lawsuits suggests that being entitled to protection under a state whistle-blower statute and receiving that protection can be two different matters. Lawsuits filed by whistle-blowers shows that it’s difficult to receive protection under many of the state laws. The current Whistleblower statutes (State and Federal) need to be strengthened; it is not sufficient and fails to provide enough of a deterrent to those who would use government for their own personal gain or to satisfy their own personal desires. In an article I read the statistic showed that seventy-four percent of the whistle-blowers were terminated. Another 6 percent were suspended and 5 percent were transferred against their wishes. The remaining 15 percent were given poor evaluations, demoted or harassed. http://www.fraud-magazine.com/article.aspx?id=4294968656 Only when we, the taxpayers, are finally fed up with our government being the playground for the vices and whims of individual managers and supervisors will things really start to change. Contact your U.S. Representative and your Senator to ask for real Whistleblower Protection today by supporting SB 121/HB 207. Contracts irregularities and mismanagement of our taxpayer’s dollars are costing Texas millions of dollars that could be used to support our school system, highways/road projects and health benefits for women and the mentally ill.

Americans who would be insulted by the depiction of President Obama as Satan in an informational historical documentary broadcast on a major television network.

The reason people should be very concerned about this is, Corporations now have the network within both State and Federal Gov't. to influence decisions for both Civil and Criminal lawsuits. In my case, my former employer intentionally discriminated against me by terminating me while on FMLA/ Disability Leave. My case has been fraudulently influenced by my former employer, Hooper Holmes, Inc. - Basking Ridge NJ with clear cooperation (complicity) by the actions of Fed. EEOC, DOL and DOJ; NJ Div. Civil Rights, NJ Attorney General's Office, NJ Superior and Appellate Courts.

Carl's Jr. ads are sexist.

The Alaska state legislature will be voting on SB 21 that would give oil companies, that are reaping enormous profits, more profits without any assurance of increased production. Tell Gov. Parnell and the Alaska State Legislature that voters will not support SB 21.

Wells Fargo sold my house right under me while in a Loan Modification Review! I am a single mother with an adopted daughter who has 10 years of mortgage interest, taxes, insurance, repairs VESTED in my home. Instead of helping me, they sell my house to a 3rd party at a discount. I qualify for HAMP, yet I didn't get a principal reduction or completion of Loan Mod Review!

Auto Liability Insurance is a requirement to get tags. Many Insurance companies sell insurance at a very high rate, This is causing many drivers to buy insurance to obtain tag and then drop the insurance. This scam is well known, so most companies sell high priced insurance that covers for a week. These companies are profiting from a glitch in the law and the poor drivers suffers. .

Even if our voter participation was aggressively sought and our votes properly tabulated, they are made virtually meaningless by the disproportionate Influence that lobbyists and big money donors have in both financing exorbitantly expensive campaigns and demanding results for their investment.

This petition makes workers have more rights, whether unionized, or not- this petition will allow workers to dispute unfair treatment, and will make corporations and small businesses be accountable for the unfair treatment they give to workers; whether that be for fair wages, better health care, or vacation time given mandatorily within a certain time of being employed with said company or corporation.

The biggest legalize scam to date is your credit score that has been used by insurance,auto & home owners insurance companies. They covert your credit score to "insurance score" & a bad credit score makes you a bad driver & home owner!

Living in South Texas, I see dozens of store front payday loan and auto title loan operations taking advantage of the most vulnerable members of the community around me. The borrowers often lose their paychecks, which are their only source of income, or their automobiles, which are needed to get to their employment.

Judges and attorneys need to be educated in the foreclosure process. The information presented by most of the banks in court is false and fabricated by foreclosure mills. A true securitization audit will flush out the “issues” with the Mortgage and Note. With this information, the homeowner and his/her attorney can challenge the “evidence” presented by the bank because of the “irregularities” and “alleged” fraud discovered in the audit. In addition, the audit could present compelling evidence showing that defective documents were filed in the court by the bank and the bank attorneys to give the “illusion” that they were the truthful owners of the Note and Mortgage, thus, giving the bank the right to foreclose. Actually, these corrupt banks and their attorneys are stealing homes and hurting all of us. This is one of the reasons everyone needs to do a securitization audit. Banks are stealing homes and judges keep hurting all of us because they don’t know about the issues at hand, don’t care or don’t want to learn about it. It is impossible for a judge to assign 15 minutes foreclosure hearings and understand all of the facts associated with a particular case. The judges need to be educated because they are instrumental in stopping the massive fraud and perjury that is being committed in the courts across the state.
