Stop Companies From Getting Into Our Facebook Accounts!Make corporations post their opinions and sentiments and emails online! More companies are reviewing Facebook accounts and asking their employees for passwords. Social media- like Facebook and twitter allow us to express our feelings and emotions...rather than harbor them and then act out violently! I am asking you all to sign this petition to let everyone know, that we all deserve privacy and the right to voice our opinions without fear of reprisal even though we may not share the same sentiments and opinions! Make it illegal for companies to use Facebook opinions expressed by employees and stop them from asking for facebook passwords.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gursheel Dhillon

Drop your ALEC membershipOver forty members of the North Carolina House of Representatives and Senate are members of American Legislative Exchange Council including Speaker of the House Tillis. This is a corporate funded group lead by the Koch brothers and Art Pope of North Carolina who are creating laws behind closed doors. They have been behind the Stand your ground law, abortion laws, marriage amendent. It is time for these politicians to work for all of North Carolina not their corporate bosses who want their agendas and laws passed.39 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Judy White

Close tax loopholes for businesspeople and corporationsMany major US corporations and businesspeople don't pay their fair share in taxes due to loopholes. This is not only unfair to every other tax payer it leaves much less revenue for essential services.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lynda Appell

Protect We the People, Not Corporate LobbyistsLaws are supposed to protect our rights and help keep us safe - that’s just common sense. But last year, multiple politicians introduced and passed laws written of, by, and for corporations - specifically by the corporate front group the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC). In recent weeks, ALEC has faced renewed scrutiny. This is partially thanks to revelations that they have worked diligently (and secretly) to pass Kill-At-Will laws like Florida’s that let Trayvon Martin’s killer go free, union-busting laws like in Wisconsin, and voter suppression efforts across the country. ALEC is not just another conservative advocacy outfit. An estimated 98 percent of their funding comes from big corporations, not grassroots members. Corporate lobbyists write ALEC “model legislation” and then send these bills off to state capitols around the country - including to Republican politicians in Lansing, several of whom were caught last year paying their ALEC dues with taxpayer funds.3,632 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Progress Michigan

Chase Bank's Illegal Foreclosure AttemptsJ.P. Morgan Chase illegally attempts to foreclose on properties. In order to foreclose and gain equity Chase placed an escrow account on my mortgage by paying the county taxes on my property one day early, before they were due. This created an escrow account which they said my payments were short paid and placed them in escrow instead of applying them to my mortgage payment. They did this for 6 months and then refused to take my payments placing the property for sale on the court house steps. After recording an assistant to the CEO's office admiting Chase could not explain their actions, he assured me Chase would straighten the matter out. They never did apply the correct payments or credit my overpayments toward the principal instead of the late fees that they illegally assessed. That was last year in April. I just received another letter this April advising me my house was in foreclosure AGAIN and was to be sold May 1, 2012.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Presley

End Excessive Executive Bonus'The law banning or establishing a maximum on executive bonus' should be expanded or clarified to include all types of executive bonus' no matter what they are called. Companies are getting around the law which bans or sets a maximum amount that can be given as "executive bonus'" by simply changing the name to executive incentive bonus'." This is particularly galling because it is being done by Wall Strret companies who, I believe, created the financial crisis in the first place. Some continue to give out millions of dollars in those kinds of bonus' while laying off hundreds of their non-executive workers.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Frances Felix

Family Data Plans Now!Major Cellphone companies are making historic profits and continue to charge families more for data than individuals. Why do families pay $100/mo. for 1.5 Gigabytes of data when an individual can buy 3 GB of data for $30? (based on AT&T plans comparing 5 phones on family plan at 300 MB each vs individual with 3 GB plan.)1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joe
