I am a plasma doner who not only helps those who need it but I get help by getting paid to donate. It has helped me afford my perscriptions, food, gas, and pay bills when I have been short on cash.

Randy Leonard would like to fluoridate Portland's water. Please sign this petition if you do not want fluoride in your water. Even the EPA now has concerns about fluoride in water. Those that want fluoride can be given free fluoride prescriptions, please don't force everyone to ingest fluoride!

To force Kaiser Permanente to begin construction of an adequate hospital facility in th Antelope Valley.

To protect public health by clarifying the authority of the Secretary of Agriculture to prescribe performance standards for the reduction of pathogens in meat, meat products, poultry, and poultry products processed by establishments receiving inspection services and to enforce the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) System requirements, sanitation requirements, and the performance standards.

I am a single mother of a son with multiple disabilities. He needs total care and despite his needs, I must, and have worked full time all of his life, because I have had three other sons to provide for. Since he is now an adult his care is chopped in half, but the need is greater for I am older, and so is he, and yet I still need to work. There is no room for me to take care of normal errands because the hours of care stop the minute I arrive home from work. The services that are available have denied him due to his level of needed care and yet our policies word it so that they won't supply him with level he requires. Although they say it is our right to keep them home the funds provided doesn't afford us a realistic ability to do so! It is time for us to make a concerted effort to care for our feeble and those who care for them diligently, respectfully, and loyally.

Congress is allowed to create a special health care insurance program for itself that only they have access to. They should be forced to buy the same health care insurance available to the citizens whom they govern wtih no special provisions for them alone.

Tha talk is all about lowering healthcare costs, but nobody is attacking the root cause. The medical insurance rates go up by double-digits every year, because there is no competition in the industry. The competing corporations (BC/BS, United Healthcare, etc...) can legally conspire to raise costs and divide up states like a pie. Currently, it's perfectly legal! Let's remove the anti-trust exemption and make them compete for our business just like the car companies or airlines. Remove the anti-trust exemption!

Why should anyone who has ever served in the house or senate, any member of congress be entitled to free health care for life? I feel they should pay for health care like everyone else. We can't afford to pay for everyone who has ever served our nation to have healthcare--they make better wages than most people--let them buy it like we do!

WE THE PEOPLE; YOUR HEALTHCARE WORKERS; YOUR SENIORS, VETS; DISABLED; WANT HUMAN LIVES EXCLUDED FROM YOUR POLITICS; THESE ARE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS THAT HAVE HAPPENED OVER THE PAST 4 YEARS BY BOTH PARTIES AND ATTORNEYS ALIKE

I have been in renal failure three times. I now have residual mild chronic kidney disease. I have stopped the spiriva which had caused fluid retention (causing reflux kidney problems) and along with under and untreated urinary tract infections led to the renal disease. I'm lucky. How many others out there (or who have died) have kidney/bladder problems due to the side effects of this drug. Prior to taking spiriva I had no kidney problems.

This petition is to repeal the Prescription Drug Bill that keeps the government from negotiating drug prices.

No taxpayer funded healthcare vouchers. We want true universal healthcare.
