PVRPD Board: Recognize MSA FC as a Community Service GroupThe PVRPD has placed restrictions on which groups can use the field space for soccer. According to PVRPD by-laws, Community Service Groups are the highest priority organization to be awarded field space access. PVRPD has an application process which details the requirements on becoming a Community Service Group. MSA FC has completed and submitted the application to become a Community Service Group and while MSA FC fulfills all the listed requirements, MSA FC was denied. The PVRPD by-laws do not state any restrictions on the number of community service groups that can be recognized, yet they have arbitrarily denied MSA FC from being recognized in the Community Service Group category because PVRPD has two organizations who are already classified as Community Service Groups in the same general category. PVRPD has denied MSA FC the use of Pleasant Valley Fields and other park facilities. MSA FC members are comprised of a community of local residents whose tax dollars pay for the Pleasant Valley Fields and other facilities. Sign the petition asking that the PVRPD recognize MSA FC as a Community Service Group.454 of 500 SignaturesCreated by MSA FC

Please Help Save Our JackPlease sign this Petition to fight the classification of vicious placed upon our sweet baby Jack, by Hilton Cole. This feels more like a personal vendetta against myself, Bonnie Blalock, and my partner, Gina DiPietro. I cannot believe that our dog is at risk to die, because the Director of EBRP Animal Control, Hilton Cole has made this a very personal issue, and quite frankly it is no longer about what Jack did or did not do, it is the simple fact that he is a PitBull and we are Gay. Please help, please sign this and Help Save Our Jack.4,081 of 5,000 SignaturesCreated by Bonnie Blalock

Stop ABC Family channel from airing 700 ClubI've sent ABC Family channel a few emails letting them know that their programming contains a hate filled show. All I ever receive back is standard response. The 700 Club is not appropriate programming for a family oriented channel.87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Derek L Wilkins

Dissolution of Vine City Civic Association, Inc.The constituents of Vine City Community no longer want the VCCA to represent the interest of our neighborhood. Due to the lack of transparency in the management of funds, the unwillingness to partner with the community in decision making, and their refusal to comply with the open records laws. VCCA has eroded the community's trust to a point of no return.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tamika

Bring back Don Orsillo!Don Orsillo is as much a part of and voice of the Boston Red Sox as any player or person in management. He is as much a reason to watch the games as is the team playing.535 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Brett Fleissner

Every presidential candidate should champion paid family (maternity/paternity/medical) leave!One in four employed mothers in the United States is back at work just TWO WEEKS after giving birth because she doesn’t have access to paid family (maternity, paternity, medical) leave. This is totally unacceptable! Lack of paid family leave is devastating for working families AND for our national economy. In fact, study after study shows that advancing this policy is not only the right thing to do for new parents, it’s also the economically smart thing to do for businesses, taxpayers, and the economy. That’s why almost all countries in the world have this critical policy already in place. It’s time for the United States to catch up. Anyone looking to lead our country should show leadership now by championing and supporting a national paid family leave policy. Sign on to this petition, and MomsRising will make sure that every major candidate in the 2016 race for President of the United States gets the message.92 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ruth Martin

Twitter: Don't cover for politicians!Twitter recently blocked a number of sites, including dedicated to archiving politician's tweets from accessing its API. This effectively shut these sites down. What elected officials say publicly to their constituents ought to remain part of the public record. Twitter shouldn't help politicians paint more favorable images of themselves or cover up their mistakes. This is like letting politicians erase footage or shred documents that make then look bad. Urge Twitter to stand for transparency and accountability by restoring API access to these sites.234 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause

Bystanders effect act; friends or not friends?My son has recently passed away on May 26th of 2015 due to a drowning incident. He was fully clothed and was also among friends at the time it happened. To this day, nothing definite has been said to me or my family as to what exactly lead up to his drowning. We do not know definitely how it happened with my son and why. So I am raising an awareness about Wolves in Sheep's Clothing, a disguise that people wear to lure you into other directions. This is happening on U.S grounds, where people are being befriended and mislead by friendships when incidents occur as the end result and we must pay attention to it .There is always someone who knows something, yet there are not enough efforts or help when it comes to such cases. The families have to look for services and provide for themselves to get the help or raise the money, when some may not have the money or resources. In certain cases like these, they go cold and unsolved. Families will never know what actually happened to their love ones as a result they give up, yet they still live with it every day wondering what had actually happened and why. We are still waiting for answers. http://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/we_are_all_bystanders https://www.psychologytoday.com/basics/bystander-effect58 of 100 SignaturesCreated by venus stutts

Joe Biden: please don't run for presidentLike millions of Americans I have lost my home , watched my income drop and a college education for my daughter seems unlikely. All this while the democrats have played defense. I believe Bernie Sanders will beat Hillary in the primary and go on to be the first president in years who will actually lead America into the future. Joe is just another folksy corporate democrat who will not rock the boat just muddy the waters.278 of 300 SignaturesCreated by mike barbeau

Christians against FFRFPrayer before games is a tradition in many team sports, especially in the South. This begins as young as Little League and continues to college level. The FFRF has attacked high schools and is now attacking college chaplains who lead teams in prayer before games. Students and coaches do not now and have never been forced to participate in prayer. Non-believers can simply choose to not bow their head until the end of prayer. Please sign this petition to support the cause to KEEP prayer at our campuses and our football games.32 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Crystal
