• HIV/AIDS Funding Cuts Destroy Families
    I'm writing this petition in hopes to keep PEPFAR going and increase funding for people to receive life sustaining treatments. I am personally affected, because at the age of 23, I myself am HIV positive. Not only am I afflicted with HIV, I am a mother, and my son needs me to be here for him.

  • Legalization of Medical Marijuana
    It is a proven fact that marijuana helps with pain and other medical issues. I have seen many good citizens have their name ruined over these ridiculous, self-righteous laws which are imposed on the people of this country. Why should someone even have to pay for the act of smoking or eating something that grows right up from the ground. The state and government go to far with their power. Its not for the people. It;s all about filling their pocket.

    Iowa must particiate in the expanded Medicaid program to provide health care to poor Iowans unable to afford health insurance. We currently serve these people in hospital emergency rooms. This system is very costly,inefficient, and inhumane.

  • Govenor Otter: please support Healthcare for Idaho.
    Our state needs affordable healthcare. I had to drop my insurance as it was too expensive, I don't have a job and cannot afford insurance. I am one of many in the same situation. People should not have to die because we cannot afford health insurance.

  • Ban Partially Hydrogenated Oil
    Many of my relatives, friends have repoted clogged arteries or heart attack. The life of the people is more important. Corporation should not just look for profit. Harming children is worst. We live in Marietta, GA. Crispy Cream gives free donuts to the school children if they get Grade A in their report card. They use partially hydrogenated oil in their donuts. Many of the nutritionist know that Partially Hydrogenated Oil is bad for everyone. To ban Partially Hydrogenated Oil from Marietta City School, State and entire country, I created this petition. I need support from everyone.

  • LOGISTICS NOT THERE WITH LOGISTICARE
    The 3+ yr-old law requiring a 3rd party intermediary (Logisticare) for booking medical transport is nothing short of chaotic--even life-threatening--madness for Medicaid patients: An hr on phone, no guarantee of transportation (regardless of need),late or missed appts, side entrance trucks sent instead of requested rear entrance trucks, stretcher vans instead of wheelchair vans, left stranded at appt. site because wrong van sent for return trip and would not send another because "..it's too late and we require a min. 48-hr request..", etc., etc., etc. Scheduling medical appts through Logisticare has done nothing but cause mass confusion for everyone. IT DOES NOT WORK!!!
