Florida Elected Officials: Get out of ALECALEC, the American Legislative Exchange Council, is comprised of state legislators and corporations, who pay to join. They then write model legislation that benefits the corporate backers' bottom lines and attempt to pass this legislation in state houses across the country. Much of it gets passed verbatim. Some of the model legislation ALEC has created or promoted includes the following: the Voter ID Act, the Defense of Marriage Act, and the Parent Trigger Bill. There have been 62 anti-environmental pieces of legislation that ALEC has pushed. The list goes on, for more information, you can visit alecexposed.org. The future of democracy is at stake when there is a shadowy back-room arrangement where corporations pay good money to get friendly legislators to introduce pre-packaged bills in state houses across the country. Tell your elected officials to serve their constituents, not the corporate backers of ALEC.431 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Kelly Iwansky

Reduce Limitation of Liability for Corporations and LLCsThe provision of a limitation of liability in most State Constitutions allows investors in corporations and LLCs to limit their liability for bad actions on their part to the amount of their investment. This Petition would reduce that limitation to 50% and the other 50% of the liability of a corporation or LLC would come out of the investor's personal funds. In order to fix our economic system, these investors need to have "skin in the game." Obviously, the present system is broken and provides too much irresponsibility.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Bailey

Pass the California DISCLOSE ActCalifornia could turn the tide on election reform by passing the California DISCLOSE Act, a measure that would shed light on the shadowy interests who depend on secrecy to influence elections. The California DISCLOSE Act (Assembly Bill 1648) would bring true transparency to state elections, ensuring that top donors for every political ad are shown in the ads themselves -- so California voters know who is trying to buy their support. The bill is just one vote shy of passage. Sign our petition to holdout state legislators and Assembly leaders to pass the California DISCLOSE Act today.35,686 of 40,000 SignaturesCreated by Russ Feingold, Founder, Progressives United
