The secret money influencing our elections isn’t lurking in only Dark Money contributions from wealthy campaign contributors. Turns out it’s also hiding in what candidates and elected officials don’t report about their finances. To detect possible conflicts of interest, the public deserves clear, specific, and relevant information about candidates’ and elected officials’ finances including income sources and investments. AB 10, authored by Assemblymember Mike Gatto (D-Glendale), improves the current reporting by requiring more specific dollar amounts and extending behest disclosure requirements to one year after leaving office. It also requires more thorough descriptions of business holdings and partners, plus a list of when each financial interest caused abstention from a governmental decision. Senator Ben Allen is the chair of the Senate Elections Committee which will be voting on AB 10 on Tuesday. So please sign the petition and ask your friends to sign!

Pennsylvania Republican legislators have voted repeatedly to force people to present identification cards, ostensibly to prevent non-existent voter fraud. Finally, real examples of voter fraud have been uncovered. According to the Associated Press (July 2, 2015): "Leaders of Pennsylvania's House Republican majority are being recorded as "yes" votes on a key budget-related schools bill, even though they weren't in the House chamber for the vote. "A House GOP spokesman said Wednesday that precedent allows representatives to vote, even if they're absent to deal with legislative business. "At the time of Tuesday night's vote, House Speaker Mike Turzai, Majority Leader Dave Reed and Appropriations Committee Chairman Bill Adolph were at a news conference in the Capitol, along with at least eight other GOP representatives whose votes were recorded." At least 11 PA Republican State Representatives committed this voter fraud in clear violation of their own rules, which state: "No member shall be permitted to vote and have his or her vote recorded on the roll unless present in the hall of the House during the roll call vote." Please sign our petition demanding an end to this blatant case of voter fraud. We demand that the Pennsylvania House of Representatives enforce its own rules against voter fraud. If a Member is not present s/he should not be able to cast a vote. This fraud must stop.

The petition is being created because the KKK has always been known as a hate group in America. Allowing them to rally for an object that imposes hate to a race and region in the country should not be allowed.

No government employee is above the law, nor free to violate their sworn duties due to personal convictions, and still remain in office.

It may feel small; by many small acts lead to large scale change. It's important to make your voice heard, to show the world how many people are against systemic racism. Lend your voice in calling for an end to the toleration of domestic terrorism thereby working towards ensuring liberty, justice and true equality for all!

I was born in Puerto Rico, and I have family on the Inland. My family has always been loyal to the USA. My grandfather fought in World War I, my father fought in World War II, my uncle fought in Korea, and my cousins fought in Vietnam. We now need help!

Recently SB 1320 was enacted in Arizona deregulating and removing State Board Authority over the application of permanent eyelash extensions, allowing non-licensed individuals to apply these extensions. We are asking for a revision to the Senate Bill, to reinstate authority to the Arizona Board of Cosmetology, over the application of Eyelash Extensions. We are concerned about the health, safety and well being of the consumer, when a medical grade adhesive is applied to the eye area by an unlicensed professional/whom is not regulated or subject to disciplinary action by any governing authority.

We want Illinois legislators to ask the question, "shall recreational marijuana be legal in the state of Illinois for adults 21 and older?" on a state-wide referendum.

For years, the University of Pittsburgh Environmental Law Clinic has helped residents in Southwestern Pennsylvania get the legal representation they deserve when pollution threatens their health, their home and their community. But now, our legislators in Harrisburg want to prohibit any funding from the state to support this critical service. Whether it's taking on illegal dumping of fracking wastewater, helping citizen facing damages from coal mining, contaminated drinking water supplies or other pollution sources, the Pitt Law Clinic provides free legal help to people facing these and many other environmental problems. If the legislature does not believe that people of modest means are deserving of representation, it has abandoned its constituents to stand behind industry and the wealthy.

The U.S. Supreme Court has exceeded its mandate under the U.S. Constitution to adjudicate--not create--legislation. We, the PEOPLE have the right to govern ourselves in America. We need to get the power back into the hands of the people through our ELECTED representatives.

To protect the future of my children and yours. To keep American workers from having to compete with nations like Vietnam, where the minimum wage is just 56 cents an hour.
