Reinstate Tuition Assistance for our Armed ServicesI'm not in the military, and I never have been. But, that doesn't matter. I understand that spending cuts need to happen in our government, but the education of the men and women fighting for our freedom is not the place for this to happen. Aid for our troops attending college has been taken away, and that is not okay. President Obama has long said he wants to bring America back up to leading the world in education. Let him stand by what he preaches, and help all of our troops better their lives and achieve their goals!3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Shannon Lee McAdoo

Elizabeth StewartI am 81 years old. Live in a retirement community. I am buying my home but not allowed to receive a reduction in interest rates or a Reverse Mortgage because of a state law against people who do not own their land. I believe this law is extremely UNFAIR.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elizabeth

Stop Changing PennsylvaniaFirst Gov. Corbett was elected by "WHO"? Then he cut education, denied free Medicaid money from the government, polluted farming communities with fracking, now he is taking our state land away and our state run liquor stores. Is there going to be a Pennsylvania that I recognize by the time we run this crook out of town? IMPEACH Gov. Corbett NOW!4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Johanna Manning

Require Congress to take Economics CoursesCongress make decisions that will affect millions, without fully understanding the repercussions of their actions. They vote for cuts, perhaps thinking this will save the government money when in fact it ends up costing more in the long run.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susan Setteducato

Save Public Transit in AtlantaI’ve seen a lot of things in my eight-year career working for MARTA. The one thing that keeps me going, though, is knowing I’m able to provide the best service to people who depend on MARTA to get to work, pick their kids up from school or visit their doctor. But extreme politicians at the state capitol are trying to jeopardize the service, safety and affordability of public transit in Atlanta by pushing a bill to require mandatory privatization of MARTA. If this legislation passes, people could see the quality of services decrease in order to make room for bigger and bigger profits for the company running the system. For more than 40 years, we've kept the “public” in Atlanta's public transportation system. Tell your senator to keep it that way.771 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Twyla Townsend

Governor Rick Scott: We need real election reform now, including no less than 14 days of early vo...On November 6th, voters in Florida were subject to long lines — sometimes waiting up to 7 hours, just to cast their vote. There were even voters in Miami-Dade County who were unable to vote until 1:30 a.m., long after the polls closed. Rick Scott and his Tallahassee politician puppets passed a sweeping voter suppression bill in 2011 that cut early voting from 14 days to 8, causing outrageously long lines we saw this past November. And those long lines had consequences. According to a new report, an estimated 201,000 Floridians were discouraged from voting. That is completely unacceptable. It is time we call on the governor and state legislature to fix the chaos they created. We must ensure the right to vote for all Floridians is not suppressed. Join Florida Watch Action as we call on Governor Rick Scott and the Florida legislature to enact real election reform without delay, including no less than 14 days of early voting.114 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Amy Ritter
