Parents of America: Please don't buy toy machine guns for your childrenThe day after the Las Vegas tragedy, I walked into a toy store and was shocked to see that right up front they were selling toy automatic rifles and machine guns. We might not be able to get Congress to regulate firearms, but can we support parents and caretakers of our children to not buy these pretend weapons? I plan to ask all toy store managers to take these off of the shelves, and to boycott any stores that think it is ok to make money this way. Please join me and pass this along.58 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sunny Thompson

Comica: please publish an official English tranlation of Take Care of my HousekeeperA lot of people from all over the world (I'm Brazilian, for example) have become invested in this manhwa (가정부를 부탁해) through a non-official translation, which has now been dropped, respecting the author wishes. It's only right: the author deserves the official page hits for their lovely story! However, most of us cannot read Korean; we find common ground in the English language and would all read the comic in your site if there was an official translation. I think this would benefit everyone, so please, consider it. :)553 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Marcela Marques

Turn over credit ratings to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.More than 143 million Americans had their personal financial data stolen because Equifax put profit over safety. This included social security numbers, credit card numbers, bank account info, and much more. This is unacceptable - no private, for-profit company should have our data without our consent. It's time to turn over the critical job of protecting our data and providing credit ratings and reports to CFPB, an accountable public agency designed to protect consumers.38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Daniel Solnit

Say NO to tax subsidies for Amazon's new headquartersAmazon has American cities bidding against each other, offering tax breaks to Amazon to choose their town as the location of its new headquarters. Amazon has done more than any company except perhaps Wal-Mart to destroy local retail businesses. It dominates online sales. It has billions of dollars in cash on hand. Only a handful of retailers in the country sell more than Amazon does. Its stock is worth more than almost every other company of any kind, and its stock price keeps rising. Amazon can afford to pay for its own headquarters. Taxpayers should not have to subsidize this giant corporation. Every dollar a city gives to Amazon is money that could be spent on schools, transportation, and other public services. Every tax break that Amazon gets is money that the chosen city will have to collect from individual taxpayers and other businesses. Amazon should not get special treatment that its competitors don't get. Say NO to public funding of Amazon!6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peaceful Communities

Equifax Protection ActI am starting this petition because credit worthiness impacts many facets of all of our lives per Attorney General Eric Schneiderman from New York State. It not only impacts whether you can obtain a loan, but also how much you can borrow, what your interest rate will be, if you have to place a deposit for utilities, insurance rates, whether you can rent an apartment, employment opportunities and more. This is a serious loss of personal information that has impacted more than half of the American public and can for years to come.92 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kevin King

Tell your State AG: Join the investigation of the Bayer-Monsanto mergerIf Bayer and Monsanto's merger goes through, the new company would be the world’s largest vegetable seed company. It would control seeds for many of the crops we eat regularly, like broccoli, carrots, and onions. In short, we’d be giving a single corporation unprecedented control of our food supply. We can’t let the future of our food system be handed over to Bayer and Monsanto. Help stop the Bayer-Monsanto merger: Take action NOW!144 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

Tell the company that owns Olive Garden: Say NO to the use of routine antibioticsDarden -- the owner of Olive Garden -- is still refusing to adopt a responsible policy to protect public health by limiting the use of antibiotics by its meat suppliers. Those antibiotics get into our food supply. They fuel the rise of antibiotic-resistant infections in people -- one of our nation's leading public health threats. In two weeks, Darden’s shareholders will vote on a proposal to prohibit its suppliers from giving antibiotics to animals that are not sick. We need your help to ramp up pressure on Darden to act! Tell the owner of Olive Garden: Stop serving meat that is raised with routine antibiotics!231 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker
