• There is no Man Caused Global Warming
    Current and proposed legislation and Executive actions to limit Carbon Dioxide are counter-productive, unnecessary and expensive. Check the facts, not the hype.

  • Renovate Clark Playground
    I'm starting this petition because a park (Moore Park) not too far from where I live got renovated. In addition to that, they attached another building to the field house at that park which is almost complete. If that park can get a complete renovation, Clark Playground can, too. 13 years without a basketball tournament is a long time and I wanna break that streak. It's long overdue!

  • Privacy for a price
    Service Providers like AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, etc. are selling our private information to NSA. Innocent people are targeted everyday and they are treated inappropriately based on the information so gathered. This should be stopped.

  • Tell Congress: We Need a New Congressional Hearing on the Extraterrestrial Issue
    On November 5, 2014 538 video copies of the full record of the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure (CHD) were shipped to all members of the United States Congress. Shortly after these 10-DVD sets are received, PRG's registered lobbyist, Stephen Bassett, will renew direct engagement of the U. S. Congress for the first time since 2000 seeking new congressional hearings on extraterrestrial related phenomena. http://paradigmresearchgroup.org, http://youtu.be/WZBN_9NMhUA

  • Anti-Clinton Progressives Seek Parley with Warren & Sanders
    Sens. Warren and Sanders have offered progressives about the only hope we have of being represented by the next U.S. president. However, with Sen. Warren supporting Hillary Clinton, a "perfect storm" is in place for them to play "useful idiots" for candidate Clinton to coopt their progressive rhetoric and betray it as president. Unless Clinton's oligarch donors are stupid, we all need to stop her candidacy dead in its tracks.

  • Tell Grapevine Animal Shelter to Allow Pit Bull Adoptions
    There are wonderful, easily adoptable dogs at risk of being euthanized at Grapevine Animal Shelter because the city is not allowing the public to adopt them. They are networked by volunteers, but the shelter does not allow you to work with the dogs in any way without training for almost four months with the police department. This limits many citizens' abilities to enter the shelter's program and assist. It's important to understand this affects our tax dollars, strains rescue resources greatly, and causes the deaths of dogs who would otherwise be beloved companions. View the full details here: http://sixdaysatthefair.com/2015/02/14/grapevine-animal-services-ringo-the-totally-adoptable-yet-unadoptable-dog/

    I would promote the value of shopping at Costco even more if it did not carry Georgia-Pacific products, which is a subsidiary of Koch Industries.

  • change US to the Metric System
    President Carter was about to introduce the Metric System and the country was geared up for it when the new President Reagan called it "un-American" and scuttled the change-over. It is high time our country abandons the present medieval and complicated system of measurements.

  • Send Kanye to the Penalty Box!
    Professional athletes are suspended for unsportsmanlike conduct. How is it possible that Kanye has been allowed to treat other music professionals with such inconsiderate and disrespectful behaviors? Why aren't The Recording Academy Trustees suspending him from attending these prestigious award shows? If the appropriate organizations won't take action on their own, it reinforces this behavior as acceptable. It is NOT acceptable. There should be a consequence from the appropriate Grammy Organization and The Recording Academy, that this unprofessional behavior will not be tolerated! It's not a joke, it's a breakdown of social civility. This would not be tolerated in any other industry. Those making appearances on prime time television have a responsibility to the viewers supporting them, and this is our chance to say, we expect professionalism! Send " Kanye to the Penalty Box" means he ( and anyone else demonstrating unsportsmanlike behaviors ) should be suspended from these prestigious award shows until he (or others) contractually agrees to behave in a respectful and courteous manner. If such agreement is broken, they are fined a million dollars ( or other significant amount)...which, is then donated to a fund that promotes positive outcomes for our youth and society at large. In hockey, one sits in the penalty box 3 long minutes leaving their team vulnerable. The public viewers are left vulnerable to the societal impact of the inappropriate and disrespectful behaviors of those celebrities that have the freedom to behave (publicly) without adhering to an industry standard code of ethics. In other sports organizations, athletes ( and celebrity athletes) can be ejected and fined by officials. Who is protecting the public from the disrespectful and unsportsmanlike conduct aired on TV? It's time to create a code of conduct and hold musicians ( and celebrities) to a higher standard! A standard code of conduct should be signed by all with access to being aired publicly and in such contract, a Penalty Box Component, will be standard and include a significant financial penalty and suspension, whereby such proceeds will be used for the greater good. Sign if you agree Kanye ( and others) should be sent to the Penalty Box for unsportsmanlike conduct on TV!

  • UPPER LAKE BANK CUSTOMERS PROTEST CLOSURE!
    The County of Lake invested mega-millions of "Redevelopment" money (our property taxes, mind you) in these struggling communities, including over $2M in Upper Lake alone, where private investment has matched and surpassed the publicly-funded investment in community thrivance. Civic pride and public service are emblematic of our town's hospitality to all Northshore businesses, residents, and visitors. > > This petition is addressed to WestAmerica's Banking Division Manager [POBox 1230, A-21A, Fairfield CA 94534], as well as to Lake County District 3 Supervisor Jim Steele ([email protected]) to support the County's equally dismayed response (Board of Supervisors, February 3, 2015) and that of the Greater Lake County Chamber of Commerce. THIS IS BAD BUSINESS FOR EVERYONE!

  • Justice for JRW Chicago's Champs
    JRW has faced unnecessary scrutiny after winning the series through hard work and dedication.
