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

It's time to regulate cannabis!Mohandas Gandhi said "No prohibition has ever withstood the test of time." A long overdue break in the fever of reefer madness that has swept this county's political and law enforcement class is now underway. Besides Massachusetts becoming the 18th medical marijuana state and legalization in Colorado and Washington, there are regulation and/or decrim bills in four state houses and industrial hemp bills in half a dozen more. Nevada can no longer afford to waste money trying to enforce our way out of this problem, while turning a blind eye to the revenue potential and harm reduction that establishing a legal and regulated market will bring.The "cure" of prohibition is far worse than the "disease" of responsible adults choosing cannabis over other intoxicating substances. Our Constitution is in tatters because of the failed drug war. After 76 years of failed prohibition, it is time to try a better approach. Let's regulate cannabis for responsible adults, keep it out of the hands of kids and grow a whole new tax-paying industry in our state!364 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Michael McAuliffe
