  • Chase Bank minimum balance fee
    Chase Bank has a 'minimum balance' fee of $12/month for accounts with a balance under $1500, a practice that in many African countries has been deemed illegal due to its discrimination against the impoverished. A person making minimum wage in America only makes $1200/month before taxes. We're calling on Chase Bank to stop robbing the poor and impoverished by dropping the monthly minimum fee.

  • Make Vermont Label GMO Foods
    Vermont is facing a lawsuit threat from Monsanto in regards to a bill that would force genetically engineered food to be appropriately labeled (H-722). The bill has yet to be voted on, but it has the majority of public approval. We are calling on the Vermont Legislature to side with the public and face Monsanto. The people have a right to know what they are eating and where their food comes from. For some, it is an ethical imperative to know how their food was produced as we move toward a sustainable globalized future. We have until the beginning of May to have this bill voted on, at which point the legislative session ends.

  • Liberty University: Sever All Ties with PepsiCo.
    The purpose of this petition is to send a message to the administration that we are still committed to doing things the right way by requesting them to sever all ties with PepsiCo, as well as encourage all affiliates of Liberty University to boycott PepsiCo products beginning with their beverages. Liberty University has a 10-year exclusive contract with PepsiCo through 2016. If Liberty University is truly committed to the defense of all life, then we cannot continue to endorse this type of unethical business practice. There is official and evidence-based data that PepsiCo is currently contracted with Synomex, a biotechnology company that uses aborted fetal cells in their taste research and development. PepsiCo has paid $30 million for such research and development and will also pay royalties to Synomex for every product PepsiCo sells using Synomex’s technology. Please refer to flyrice85.wordpress.com for more detailed information and/or contact James Ahn at [email protected] if you have any questions, comments or would like to get involved.

  • Congressman West: Denounce ALEC today!
    BREAKING NEWS: Coca Cola has announced its decision to stop supporting the highly-controversial corporate group ALEC (the American Legislative Exchange Council). ALEC brings corporations and politicians together behind closed doors to discuss so-called "model bills." ALEC's agenda includes: -Pushing the Stand Your Ground law that Trayvon Martin's killer is using as his defense -Promoting Arizona-style immigration laws across the country -Working to disenfranchise African Americans, Latinos, students, the elderly, and the poor Coca Cola has made the right decision in pulling their support from ALEC. Ask Congressman West to do the same.

  • Even grosser than pink slime
    I hope you don't mind a little salmonella and E. coli in your chicken. Because if the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) gets its way, chicken contaminated with disease, feathers and other really disgusting stuff could be on its way to your dinner plate within the year. About 3,000 Americans die from food-borne illnesses each year. Instead of doing more to protect our families, the USDA is facing budget cuts by taking it out on the inspectors we need. Not only would about 1,000 get the boot—the inspectors who keep their jobs would be told to inspect 175 chickens per minute. That's more than three chickens per second!

  • Veterans Justice Army March on Washington- Fall 2012
    "Veterans gave their blood. Wall Street took their H.O.P.E. (Homes. Opportunity. Prosperity. Equality.)" This fall, 20,000 combat veterans will march on Washington to demand justice from our politicians- justice for abandoning their needs, ignoring their pleas, and selling their dignity (dignity they've earned through blood and sacrifice) to banks, corporations, and the highest bidder.

  • Tax the Multi-Millionaires & Billionaires @ 92%
    We have a revenue crisis, not a debt problem. The U.S greedy wealthy of imagined nobility and hereditary privilege actually believe they have "entitlement" to plunder U.S. revenues at will with impunity. Once our Republic is free of this cancerous culture of greed and corruption afflicting only the1% of imagined nobility and hereditary privilege then real egalitarian and economic justice will be enjoyed by the 99%. The Mission Statement of the Preamble to the Constitution mandates egalitarian and economic justice for the "general Welfare" of all U.S. citizens under our constitutionally mandated "Republican Form of government." All other forms of government have proven to be oppressive and tyrannical, i.e., Monarchism, Communism, Fascism, Theocracy, Libertarianism, Corporate Commie Capitalism of cheap labor, Monopolistic Corporate Capitalism of cheap labor, Free-market Capitalism of cheap labor or any other form thereof masked as a "Republican Form of government", etc., ad nauseam. A fair tax rate for these incorrigible freeloaders is the 92% rate they paid in the 1950s now reduced to 15% or no taxes at all via their on-going sabotage of our constitutional Republic. This incorrigible criminal class of multi-millionaires and billionaires actually receive government welfare checks every year amounting in the billions!!! They have yet to earn a single dollar of their immense wealth untainted by their culture of greed and corruption.
