Support Palestine's Bid for StatehoodSince 1948, the Palestinian people have been displaced as a result of the creation of Israel, living in poverty with no opportunities. In September, they will present their bid for statehood (based on the 1967 borders) to the U.N. Security Council. Join me in calling for U.S. support of this bid, thus supporting the human rights and dignity of the Palestinian people. Let's grant them the independence and sovereignty they need to begin to prosper as a nation.59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Taylor Murray

Support H. Res. 333 that Honors American Veterans of WWIIH. Res. 333 supports the 67-year effort for justice by the American POWs of Japan who suffered untold hardships and misery in captivity and faced gag orders and poor treatment upon their return to the United States. The resolution is an enduring message to all service men and women that their country will never forsake them. These WWII veterans all in their 90s wish to see their dignity restored and memory honored before the last one passes on. The resolution thanks the Government of Japan for its apology and program of reconciliation given to the American POWs in September 2010. The resolution further encourages Japan's great companies that used these POWs as slave labor to follow the example of their government to acknowledge and apologize to the American POWs. Japanese companies that used POW slave labor include Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, Hitachi, Kawasaki, Showa Denko, Nippon Steel, and Nippon Sharyo.
