• Its time for Constitutional Convention & 28th Amendment
    Corporations are controlling our government through buying our elections and enough is enough, its is time to call on our State Officials to demand a Constitutional Convention that would result in a 28th Amendment making all elections publicly funded, and over-turn Citizens United.

  • Impeach Gov Jay Nixon for abuse of power and violating the laws of Missouri
    The gov does not have the power to tell the judicial branch who and when to prosecute, without the facts even being known. He has asked AG Eric Holder and the MO Attorney general to take action, even without the grand jury even hearing the case.

  • Privatize Worker's Compensation Insurance
    People are forced to utilize this service when the unfortunate event of injury occurs on the job, they have no other alternative. My experience with this agency was fraught with incompetence, inattention to detail, disrespectful treatment, discrimination, operating outside their scope of practice by rendering medical opinions they are not qualified or licensed to render, and negligence. They committed a privacy breach, releasing unauthorized personal information to a party that could have resulted in a detrimental outcome. When this was brought to their attention I was treated with obstinance, not with the concern befit my issue. At every turn I was confronted with obstacles, delays, and utter disregard for the predicament they placed me in causing extreme distress. I even requested and was denied a meeting with the Governor to discuss the glaring issues that exist within this agency and how it relates to workers in the State of Washington. This agency is ill equipped to handle the sensitive nature of worker’s healthcare needs. The fact that they are not regulated in the same manner as other businesses providing like services is concerning. Story after horror story has come to my attention as I talk with others about their experience dealing with this agency. Please help protect the rights, privacy, health and well being of Washington State worker's by signing this petition to privatize Washington State Department of Labor and Industries Worker's Compensation Insurance.

  • Independent Review of SAPD Complaints
    When we entrust police officers with power to protect and serve us we should be treated with respect and when that power is abused, those officers should be held accountable. To learn more about how SAPD Officers are not being held accountable please read The Texas Civil Rights Project's Report http://www.texascivilrightsproject.org/docs/sapd/Police_Misconduct_in_San_Antonio-TCRP_Human_Rights_Report.pdf

  • A Petition to Amend the US Constitution to Include the Concept of "Responsibility"
    Pick a problem! Pick any social, political, economic, or environmental problem. Pick them all! You will find that somewhere in that problem, to a greater or lesser extent, some entity’s failure to act responsibly is a factor in the existence of that problem. It stands to reason that if we move universally across the broad spectrum of our problems, to increase that level of responsibility for those entities, that we will also be moving to decrease the extent to which those problems exist.

  • Tell Governor Rick Perry: Resign Immediately
    I'm proud to be a Native Texan and we deserve a statesman for our governor. Not someone who is more interested in making and carrying out political threats.

  • Help small donors, not big donors! @HerbJWesson @JoseHuizar @TomLaBonge
    The Los Angeles Ethics Commission recently proposed important changes to the city's matching funds system to increase the rate at which qualified donations are matched to 6 dollars for every dollar. This has the potential to give small donors a fighting chance in city elections. Unfortunately, the Commission has not recommended lowering the amount that can be matched per donor. Under the current proposal, up to $500 of a donation gets the 6-1 match, meaning somebody who gave $1,300 — clearly not a "small" donor — would get $3,000 in public funds — making their advantage over small donors even bigger! Please urge the three members of the Los Angeles City Council Rules Committee to fix the proposal: City Council President Herb Wesson, Councilmember Jose Huizar, and Councilmember Tom Labonge. Sign the petition now!

  • Lawsuit to sue John Boehner
    He deserves such harassment for all the pain and suffering he has caused (me) our country from any forward movement because he is hell bent to keep Obama from having any accomplishments.

  • Sign the petition to the feds: Stop militarizing our police
    If the photographs emerging from Ferguson, Missouri look like some foreign war zone to you, you're not alone. Plenty of former soldiers in Iraq & Afghanistan are saying the same thing. This was no accident. The armored vehicles, assault weapons and body armor that police are wearing in Ferguson—and other state/local police across the country—come from the United States military. Since 1996, the Department of Defense has transferred $4.3 billion in military equipment to local and state police through its 1033 program. Since 2001, the Department of Homeland Security has further militarized our police through federal funds for “terrorism prevention.” It is time for this to stop. Sign the petition to President Barack Obama, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Homeland Security Secretary Johnson: stop sending military equipment to local and state police.

  • End militarization of police forces.
    The recent events in Ferguson, Missouri, make the dangers of police militarization obvious. It is time for strict limits to be placed on the sale and supply of military-grade weapons and vehicles by the Pentagon to local police forces.

  • NJOCU Petition asking NJ SENATORS to LEAD on Sept.8th CLOTURE VOTE for Constitutional Amendment t...
    There are currently 50 cosponsors of the amendment . Even one more cosponsor will give our movement to get big money out of politics a SENATE MAJORITY. NJOCU (NJ for the Overturn of Citizens United) is a grassroots coalition of 29 statewide organizations that has worked for 3 years to bring a amendment before Congress that will ensure the free and fair elections that our Founding Fathers envisioned. SJR19 enables Congress and the States to regulate campaign financing and to distinguish between artificial entities and actual people. Results of this petition will be sent to your Senators. They will know you want them to LEAD. Your voices will be heard and your comments read. Each of you is needed in the fight to restore our Democracy: to insure government of, by and for the people; not of, by, and for the money. The September 8th Senate vote is an important first step; stay alert to the next steps, PASS THIS PETITION ALONG TO OTHERS, and go to the our website, www.njocu.org, for updates and information how you can join the NJOCU Coalition.
