Feel The Pain: Zero Health Benefits for Federal Judges and LegislatorsContingent upon the U.S. Supreme Court ruling against the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, this petition would call for a national referendum on the repeal of health and other benefits for federal legislators (congressmen and senators) and the federal judiciary (all federal judges including Supreme Court justices. Among other effects, this initiative would require that all legislators and judges purchase health insurance on the significantly more expensive individual insurance market if they choose to remain insured.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Fago

GMO labelingAmericans care about what's in their food. It is important to know cuz of allergy. We all have a right to know whether our food has been genetically engineered so we can make informed decisions about what we eat or feed our families. In fact, against the backdrop of a deeply divided nation, polls show that more than 92 percent of Americans agree on labeling GMOs.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Georgia Cooper

Stop making it illegal for controlled substances to be prescribed over state bordersAs a patient of a rare genetic cancer disease I am completely fed up with the system for people who need medicine. I can not get any controlled substances for pain since my surgeon was in one state (only 2 people in the US do the type of surgery I had for colon removal/cancer). I had severe problems where the dose of pain meds I was sent home were not enough. My local doctor could not or would not give me a prescribed for a new pain med and not one pain management center would help me. This needs to stop. If a patient has surgery in a state and needs medicine this should NOT be an issue. Plenty of us suffer due to someone else breaking the system. America needs to take better care of it's citizens. The law that went into place to prevent meds being prescribed over the state line needs to be removed immediately. Even when traveling if you lose a prescription you can't have access to it at the local pharmacy, you are flat out declined. For example, my mother came to visit me and on the trip over her meds were damaged, she went to Walgreens to try to fill it again and they said she had to go back to Florida. This is a drug she used daily, totally uncalled for. This country is going back in time, not progressing at all. Things must change and this is my start!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vanessa Truog
