Governor Deal has rejected the billions of dollars in federal Medicaid funds available to us through the Healthcare Act. The Medicaid cuts are unnecessarily hurting poor Georgians daily. I see it in my work as a hospice director every day. He is taking a political stance just because he does not want to go along with something President Obama put in place--at the expense of Georgia's most vulnerable citizens. Several red state governors in the US have reneged on their stance against accepting the money. We need to call on Governor Deal to do the same thing---accept the Medicaid money! This is NOT a new thing--we already accept federal Medicaid money. These funds will only work to improve Georgia's healthcare.

We are all affected by meanness of spirit.

Why are we afraid to tax the rich equally and why are we afraid to our war funding? I am a Grand Rapids Dominican Sister from Michigan, am retired and see families struggling. I live on fixed income and am grateful for my help from social services. Why should some people be shut out from this help. There are so many why's that people are floating around. We have lost hope in our government. Taking recesses from your jobs, is not a noble thing to do. What are your reasons. When I was working, I did not take recesses, nor should you.

Fema is 8 years later taking the income taxes of victims from Katrina , Rita, and Wilma. They are not giving fair warning or chances to appeal. They are taking finds from petsonal accounts and IRS refunds.

Sometimes, we elect statewide officials who have veered too far from their what they said in their campaign, who are incompetent, or have simply changed parties. We need to be able to recall elected offials at will after one year in office.

The nation is tired of wasting both time and money in matters of government being obstructed by disgruntled legislators who's only objective is to hold the country hostage to their bitter objections and destructive agenda.

Congress being on their job, it affects all Americans.

I live in a small poor county and recently found out the city employees make a very large salary, more than the city can afford, and this needs to be looked at and questioned by the governor of the state this is going on it.

Mitch McConnell is an embarrassment to the state and its people. The petition calls for a vote to remove Mitch McConnell from the United States senate.

The contentious and vitriolic Republicans in the House of Representatives and Senate are crippling the democratic process.
