Tell the Unicameral: Vote No on TransCanada’s LB1161, Stop the “Pipeline Six”Six of the eight members of the Nebraska Unicameral’s Natural Resources Committee have become pro-pipeline activists, voting through their committee a bill that would give TransCanada a free pass to determine a pipeline route through Nebraska and to seize private property through eminent domain on a “fast track.” LB1161 circumvents existing Nebraska state law that would require any major oil pipeline project to first obtain approval through a Nebraska Public Service Commission process. LB1161 would set a dangerous precedent by allowing a foreign corporation (which currently has no pending permit for a pipeline) to enact immediate powers of eminent domain, as if they were a public utility with the proper authority and permits. The unicameral worked hard during the special session in November to pass laws that would give Nebraskans input and oversight over where and how pipelines would cross our state. Now, following the lead of TransCanada-loving Jim Smith (LD14), five other Natural Resources Committee senators Tom Carlson (LD38), Mark Christensen (LD44), Chris Langemeier (LD23), Beau McCoy (LD39) and Ken Schilz (LD47) are taking their pro-pipeline activism to the rest of the unicameral for a vote. It seems the “Pipeline Six” are in TransCanada’s pocket, doing anything they ask rather than representing Nebraska citizens and our natural resources. Nebraskans deserve better. We deserve leaders who represent our interests, not the interests of a foreign corporation. We demand leaders who will take necessary action to protect and preserve our state’s land and water--not corporate puppets that will do anything in their power to ensure this pipeline is built. We will not allow this political pandering of a few state senators willing to sell out our state’s natural resources and our people’s personal property rights to their Big Oil buddies.1,776 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Jane Fleming Kleeb

Corporate ReformThis petition is to force the Congress to be accountable for the money they take from Corporations and Lobbyist groups for their own personal profit. It will also allow the American People the right to take said Congressman/Congresswoman to court for prosecution. As of now the Congress handles these matters it's self. Which means that unless the press gets a hold of the story, nothing ever happens.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mark Fritkin

Stop the JOBS Bill!The Jumpstart our Business Startups bill that is poised to pass the Senate is an abomination and an insult to the American people. This bill was strategically named to fool the people into believing that there is some part of it that will actually create jobs. It creates nothing more than the complete and utter abdication by our lawmakers of their fundamental responsibility to the people of the United States. This bill destroys regulations on Wall Street that protect us. The Senate has the opportunity to stop this bill it its tracks. Please call your Senator and voice your opposition to this horrific bill. Call, fax, email your Senator. Then call the White House so it is clear that JOBS are for people, NOT Wall Street.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lyndy Bleser

Get Rush Limbaugh off KLIX 1310 radio in Twin FallsRush Limbaugh openly harassed Sand Fluke by calling her a "slut" and saying she should make a "sex video." This is a blatant attempt at vilifying women who use contraceptive pills. He should not be allowed to continue being on the radio, and it gives KLIX radio a bad name if they should keep his show running on their station.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jorgi Gonzalez

Remove Rush from the GJ Airwaves.Rush Limbaugh's reprehensible attack on Sandra Fluke, the college student who spoke to Congress about women's reproductive rights, calling her a slut and a prostitute and asking her to make a sex video, should be the end of his on-air career. Let's convince KNZZ to kick him off the air in Grand Junction. We have more community respect of our airways and citizens than to have to listen to his vulgar remarks.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kathy M
