1) This is not about any political party. It is about the preservation of the Separation of Powers clause that is the bedrock of the US Federal Government and our Constitutional Republic, as well as the blatant violation (by 47 + 1 members of the Senate and House) of the 'Logan Act', which specifically prohibits ANY U.S. Citizen not of the Executive Branch (Article II of the U.S. Constitution) from directly engaging in U.S. Foreign Diplomacy, such action being legally defined as an act of Treason. 2) Besides being delivered to both The Senate and House Ethics Committees, this petition shall be delivered to The President of the United States and The Attorney General of the United States (Department of Justice). 3) We as Citizens of the United States do further request that ALL electronic mail accounts of these following suspect individuals be locked and searched by DOJ / FBI, as potential prima facie evidence of manifest treason, covert collusion and thus conspiracy with certain known and unknown extremist elements of the foreign governments of Israel and Iran, to circumvent the current negotiation process and thus perpetuate a permanent state of low intensity conflict, protracted limited war, and virtual war, in the Middle East; even as the The United States and members of the European Union work assiduously towards an official nuclear arms elimination treaty with the Islamic Republic of Iran.

We need Progressive Senators. Removing the leader of the "Control Wall Street" caucus weakens our resolve to take back our government from tjhe 1%.

Transparency and disclosure have always been the bottom line of Virginia government. But a loophole in the "ethics reform" bill would allow legislators to accept flights, meals, and hospitality from corporate special interests at ALEC conferences with no limits and no sunshine. This is outrageous. The public's business should be conducted in the light of day. This gigantic loophole is specifically designed for corporate front groups like ALEC. House of Delegates Speaker Bill Howell serves on ALEC's national board and, according to media reports, pressured colleagues in the House and Senate to accept last-minute changes to the bill. Governor McAuliffe can close this loophole by amending the bill and sending it back to the General Assembly.

Senate Bill 541 has created a platform for Election Regulations that would allow more money into elections and take control away from WV voters. This would scare even more West Virginians away from participating in the political process. This is OUR State and we need to REMOVE the powerful influence of in-state and out-of-state Corporations and those that hide behind Non-Profit Organizations.

Too often the policies and governing philosophy of Governor Brownback conflicts with the needs and desires of the citizens of Kansas. Farmers are now being attacked, alongside teachers and members of the LGBT community. We the people have had enough! Taxes will be going up to protect the income tax reductions of over 333,000 pass-through businesses: totally unfair. The Governor wants to control the judicial system: totally unfair. The Governor wants to reduce services to every resident: totally unfair. The Governor has and continues to prevent the poorest of us from obtaining the protection of health care: totally immoral and unfair. The only option we have now is to place pressure on him to resign. Please sign this petition and I will personally deliver it after 50,000 signatures are obtained across Kansas.

I watched the documentary "Silenced" by James Spione and was appalled that our government could (and does ) use its power to harass conscientious Americans just for telling the truth about governmental abuses. Some are currently in prison for truth-telling! Petition signers should urge their representatives and President Obama specifically to release John Kiriakou from prison, and permit Edward Snowden to return to his homeland without being persecuted and prosecuted for whistle- blowing about abuses by our government. It is unconscionable that out government is using the same bullying tactics used early on against German citizens in Hitler's rise to power. If we want to retain our own civil rights, we must protect the civil rights of others in our country. They are being aggressively eroded ever since 9/11.

I believe that gerrymandered districts (which have rightly been ruled unconstitutional) are destroying our democracy.

There are some policies carried out by DHS that MoveOn members strongly disagree with. But shutting it down over one of the Obama administration's progressive reforms would be crazy and damaging.

Currently there is very little protection for animals in New York State. Dogs and Cats are not safe from their owner leaving them outside in extreme weather. It has been as low as -25 with the wind chill here in the past month and it is not illegal to leave pets outside overnight?! If someone calls the police and reports animal cruelty, there is no law making it illegal. Please don't stand by and let this continue to happen to voiceless animals; please sign in support of bringing pets inside!

The American people need to realize that we have been bamboozled out of our rights and we need to stand up and take them back. It's been proven in several Supreme Court cases to be unconstitutional to say that a driver's license inspection, sticker registration, and insurance are required for your personal private property. Reference ex-parte Dickey supra Where the West Virginia Supreme Court defines the difference between the right of the people to use their property on the highway and the privilege of using it for private gain.

I am a Massage Therapist, a small business owner, the Vice President of the Golden Gate Unit of the American Massage Therapy Association, and appreciate massage in my healing self-care. I will be unable to afford starting a brick and mortar business and will have to increase my prices to deal with the proposed costs of the policy being considered. I have met with Supervisor Tang, attended meetings across the board, and tried to be part of the process of forming the policy. Supervisor Tang is ignoring our concerns.

Anyone who is a State of IL employee or retiree, senior citizen, teacher, fire fighter, police officer, or a taxpayer has heard about the dire state of the State. There is the pension "crisis" as well as threatened cuts to Medicaid and the list goes on. People don't want or can't afford tax increases but drastic cuts in programs is not acceptable either. The legalization of marijuana would alleviate the tax burden on Illinois citizens and avoid the need for drastic cuts. I am a retiree who spent over 34 years working for my pension and our governor and others would like to see my benefits cut. Whether you like the idea of smoking marijuana or not, those who smoke it do so even though it is illegal. Those who don't, are not likely to start if it becomes legal. Colorado is rolling in profits from the huge increase in tax revenue.. We need to send a message to members of the IL House & Senate that we, the citizens of IL, would welcome the legalization of marijuana for recreational use to help unburden the tax payers, fix the pension crisis, and avoid cuts to Medicaid and social programs in the State.
