• Stop Sanderson from Spoiling Sampson
    The Sampson County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to let Sanderson Farms know, by letter, that they are interested in having a high-volume chicken processing plant built in Sampson County. The recruitment of Sanderson Farms should be stopped. Two other counties in this state have already voiced their opinion; and they do not want Sanderson Farms. We should not want them either.

  • NO TO THE SOCIAL CLUB SWINGER'S CLUB IN MADISON
    We are starting this petition because our children are the future. Neighborhoods matter. Communities have a voice. We do not want this establishment (a hard core sex club called The Social Club) relocating to 520 Lentz Drive which is next door to Goodpasture Christian School K-12, in a medical building in a medical professional campus where there are pediatric doctors, in our evolving business district, nor in our residential areas. Our once darling Madison has suffered enough from blight and economic loss. We are working hard to bring back our community. Madison, TN, is on a mission for healthy revitalization and attracting elite investors and strong developers to bring this community back to a quality of life area to live, work and play for its residents, employees, business owners and service folks. We do not want these negative-type businesses dragging down the value of our properties, contributing to loss of business to others, sabotaging economic worth for the community and threatening our quality of life in our area. We as a community feel disrespected by this business because they never considered impact on community as part of their location research. This petition will continue until we stop this club from opening at 520 Lentz Drive, see the location here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1HJGSvMLSIZSBshJ0XcmSgLWBTOME6hp-tu2m103kyUk/edit?usp=docslist_api

  • President Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge
    I have been to some African countries lately and I felt the need for this interfaith community service project for many African college students to build bridges of respect and understanding for peace and reconciliation. Being of African roots I feel it is my duty to start this petition today. Please help in any way possible make this dream come true.

  • I stand with John Dehlin.
    "Thoughts and expressions compete in the marketplace of thought and in that competition, truth emerges triumphant. [….] Only error fears freedom of expression. [….] The free exchange of ideas is not to be deplored as long as men and women remain humble and teachable. Neither fear of consequence or any kind of coercion should ever be used to secure uniformity of thought in the church. People should express their problems and opinions and be unafraid to think without fear of ill consequences […] We must preserve freedom of the mind in the church and resist all efforts to suppress it. We should all exercise our God- given right to think and be unafraid to express our opinions…” — President Hugh B. Brown

  • Save McGinnis School
    I myself went to McGinnis school as a child. I was appalled when I heard it was going to be demolished. There is no reason for it, except perhaps in the name of corporate profit, Many East Brunswick Citizens feel the same way.

  • MEDICINE WHEEL ON DAHLONEGA GOLD MUSEUM GROUNDS
    The native tribes of Georgia were moved to Oklahoma during the gold rush in Dahlonega and there is very little history at the museum about their loss and struggle. We want a monument of healing added to the museum grounds as soon as we can! This would be a long needed site for forgiveness and justice. A place of reverence, as never to let greed overshadow human rights again in our State.

  • Support Augusta County Residential Backyard Hens
    On January 28, 2015, the Augusta County Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing to determine whether backyard hens are allowed in residentially zoned areas. Backyard hens provide pest control (eating ticks, stinkbugs and other pests), compost (consuming kitchen scraps and diverting tons of waste from landfills), produce healthier eggs than factory farm chickens (with 3 times more vitamin E and 7 times more beta carotene), and prevent heritage breed extinction (should factory farms suffer due to illness, backyard flocks can keep chickens alive and well). Safe, healthy, beneficial to families and the environment, we have a right to have hens in our backyards.

  • Urging Missouri legislators to pass a law allowing the sale of growlers for off premise consumption
    Living in rural Missouri limits craft beer enthusiast access to much of what the market has to offer. Allowing retailers and not just licensed breweries to offer the sale of growlers in their stores will provide more access to consumers of craft beer as well as provide retailers an additional source of income. TN and KY already allow retailers to sell and fill growlers and it has been very successful with the retailers.

  • Ask Hillary Clinton to publicly denounce Citizens United
    Citizens United is the single most destructive piece of legislature in the last 50 years. If Senator Clinton wants the White House , she can unite Demcrats with a goal of repealing the amendment.

  • animal abusers
    Dear Mr President Obama Im starting this petition for animal abuse. I see plenty of animal abusers getting slapped on their hands with lil to no punishment. I believe there should be a harder punishment for this I mean aninals are as defenseless as our children. Plus these kill shelters break my heart as well. This should be stopped. And a pit bull should be properly evaluated before given his death sentence. I think even if its a child (like hazel graces abusers) they need to be punished and get physiciatric help to prevent this as well. There are so many defenseless animals getting abused. Also I think more money should be donated and designated for the care of the abused animals and restitution should be made from the abuser to pay for their care. Animal abuse. My heart strings have been pulled due to Hazel Grace and Kringle and many others. Animals should NOT be abused. If your going to abuse them dont get one.
