Progressive countries invest in the health of every citizenThe Affordable Healthcare Act has likely already saved the US hundreds of thousands of dollars and ensured better quality of life for many youth up to the age of 26. Yet this and other initiatives to prioritize the health of our citizens is being undercut for the financial gain of those who have at their disposal every healthcare advantage available. Prioritizing policy this way brings with it the disdain of our global neighbors who incredulously watch as thousands of US citizens struggle for access to basic care. This is shameful. The capitalistic roadblocks threatening to block access to healthcare for all US citizens must be removed.62 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda Bertsche

kfmb, kgtv, knsd, kpbs: Tell Obamacare success stories like mine!My son was unable to get insurance for his youngest child because of pre existing condition and was paying over $2000.00 per month to insure his wife and other 4 children, after signing up on aca his total insurance will cost less than $300.00 per month for 2 adults and 5 children. Because of a lack of medical insurance after both my husband and I lost our jobs due to the recession, we were forced to file for bankruptcy, this would not have happened if the aca had been in place in 2009 The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, has been under attack by mainstream media for more than three weeks now.

Put Every US Citizen on the Government's Healthcare PlanWe keep going round and round about what's needed in healthcare for our country. Since the government gets to keep its plan, it must be better than anything else around. Let's make it accessible to everyone. Isn't that what equality is all about?16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jean Paddock

Raleigh, NC; Support Dr. Jennifer Federico, WCAC Animal Services DirectorIndependent animal rescues are calling for the resignation of Dr. Jennifer Federico. A week ago, Dr. Federico authorized the euthanization of 60 cats confiscated in a hoarding raid. Both sides agree that the 60 cats were ill and were suffering. The independent rescuers wanted the cats treated, but if that were to happen, then 60 cats in the shelter would have died. There is not unlimited space and resources for the animals in our community. We are all in agreement that irresponsible pet ownership and lack of regulation on spaying and neutering are to blame. Our hope is that we can all join forces to work against that, instead of working against the people who are cleaning up the aftermath of this animal-overpopulation epidemic. Instead of criticizing the shelter and its staff, we can save animals by volunteering, fostering, and donating to the county shelter. Please join us in standing with Dr. Jennifer Federico.740 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Shannon Johnstone

Rescind all Obamacare laws immediatelyWe have seen nothing but absolute failures in this law. It makes no sense, costs too much money and does not solve any problems! Why was it ever even passed? Let's just realize it is a total failure and get rid of it immediately. We can revisit healthcare reform once Obamacare is gone!25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rob

Tell President Obama: Expose and stop insurance company sabotageIt’s time to expose and stop insurance companies that are sabotaging the Affordable Care Act. Some people have lost their substandard health insurance plans, because they are not in compliance with the new law. But some insurance companies are using the confusion about Obamacare to trick people into buying new (more expensive) policies without telling customers about alternative plans and subsidies available on the new exchanges. And some are out and out lying about the law, selling new junk policies without explaining that people buying them will also have to buy real policies. Rather than discrediting Obamacare, the actions of these companies prove why we needed health care reform in the first place. Insurance companies put profit over patients, and cannot be trusted to do the right thing for their customers. It's time to put a stop to this. Tell President Obama: Expose and stop insurance company sabotage.218 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Paul Hogarth

President Obama Help Us Support the ACAAs a health care consultant and Move On member I am desperate for the President to take the offensive in explaining the many critical benefits of the ACA. The President needs to stop apologizing and conduct regular press conferences to correct misinformation, contrast the ACA with the dismal status quo healthcare system, and give real life examples of the hundreds of thousands of individuals benefiting already. We need him to help us fight for non discriminatory healthcare for all Americans!36 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bill Schmelter

Help My Aunt Recieve the Healthcare She Needs and DeservesMy aunt, Gwendolyn, is being housed at Rikers Island Correctional Facility's Rose M. Singer Center and needs dire medical attention! She needs surgery to fix her defective hip replacement, and is currently forced to walk with a cane, lie on a mattress all day or sit in a wheel chair while her hip dislocates, due to the separation of the bolts holding her hip in place. As her hip bones separate, she can now only recieve 4 basic Tylenol pills a day. It has gotten so bad for her that she has even declined continuing to receive visits, as it is too painful for her to make it to the visiting room and sit for that long. She is in terrible living, social, and mental conditions and that's hard enough to deal with. But to know every moment that passes that she is in such terrible pain and there is so little that I can do to change her circumstances is agonizing. I pray so hard every day for God to deliver her from her misery. In such, I have decided to contact everyone I can to seek help, justice and humanity for my ailing, medically deprived aunt. No matter how anyone feels about the circumstances surrounding inmate rights, it should never invalidate a person's right, my aunt's right, to live as a human being should live! Her right to live as God ordained His creations to live! My aunt needs help! She has four children, three grandchildren, with another on the way and dozens of nieces, nephews, sisters and brothers praying for and thinking of her every single day. So, I am coming to you all, the public, with faith, persistence, and few places other to go. Will you help my family and I secure humanity for my aunt please? Will you all be a part of this stand for justice and exemplifying the concept of doing to others as we would have them do to us?!208 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Shaquana Gardner
