The Elephants of the Oregon Zoo are in a small and inadequate enclosure and are being kept only for profit and entertainment. The recent expansions are still paltry compared to the elephants' actual needs. The herd patriarch, Packy, is dying slowly in secret, locked away from public view. They suffer from an intense and forced breeding program. Please help stop the abuse and let these elephants live in peace and retirement from this cruelty and exposition.

Our children, pets and our veterans suffering from PTSD should not be subjected to the noise associated with fireworks. As taxpayers, we have a right to enjoy our homes, breathe air not polluted with harmful metals contained in fireworks, and not worry about personal injury or property damage from the actions of a few.

Soybean oil, cheap and used by most restaurants to fry and cook their otherwise soy-free meals in, or, mixed with other vegetable oils like canola is one of the most hidden and non-disclosed allergens that can prove very problematic to allergic individuals. Because soybean oil is often unremarked or non-disclosed to the waiters and restaurant staff and is considered a non-offensive agent, which is untrue, it should be eliminated from otherwise soy free foods, given that soy is one of the top 8 allergens.

I am six years old. I love eating healthy food. But occasionally I like to go to McDonald's. Once I found out McDonalds uses azodicarbonamide, I stopped eating there. (This was my own choice, not my mom's.) Please remove this ingredient from your food as I want to live a really long healthy life.

Late night transit enables more consumers and workers to participate in Utah’s growing economy, dollar for dollar. Buses and trains running a late schedule reduce risk to those who work late night and early morning shifts, preventing them from having to walk for hours down darkened streets and providing them with a small improvement in their quality of life. Low income individuals often work irregular schedules and are the most loyal customers of UTA. Based on that, their demand for late night services should be met. Equally important is how late night transit (directly or indirectly) reduces the number of alcohol related accidents and injuries in the state. In the past year, UTA has seen an increase in ridership and it is time to take the next step in reinvigorating UTA's ridership. While it is up to the discretion of the UTA board how funds are allocated and spent, we believe future revenues should be focused on reestablishing regular late night ridership on a consistent schedule.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg is the model of what we need in a Supreme Court justice. She was a pioneer of women’s rights as an attorney arguing before the Supreme Court. She was just the second woman confirmed to be a Supreme Court justice. She was the first Supreme Court justice to officiate a gay couple’s wedding. Now, she’s the court’s voice of reason as leader of the court’s liberal wing—speaking truth to power in fiery dissents to decisions by the court’s right-wing majority. In short, Ruth Bader Ginsburg is awesome and we need more of her. Add your name: We need nine Ruth Bader Ginsburgs on the Supreme Court.

This petition seeks to draw attention to the fact that Georgia lawmakers continue to promote Confederacy related events and activities with residents' tax dollars. Given the Confederacy sought to preserve/expand slavery, and was built on the notion that White people were superior to all races, it is time to end this racist practice.

Studies show that consumer (1.4G) fireworks have become safer to use since being regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. More consumer fireworks are being bought and used every year with fewer injuries per pound of product purchased, while Illinois continues to miss out on the taxes from these purchases. By relaxing the consumer fireworks laws in Illinois, residents will once again be able to enjoy using them and the state will realize the financial benefit from sales tax revenue.

Society's future is surely slipping out of the horizon of a brighter future on a lot of self inflicted decisions..but keeping the Cottonwood Treatment Facility open is a HUGE necessity..even a police officer here in Cape Girardeau said, Cape P.D. used to only handled MAYBE 1-2 mentally disturbed people a month, now it's 1-2 a day! It's unbelievable..I have a son with a diagnosis of moderate ADHD, & ODD, our children of course are the/our future!!.. How can a great treatment facility like Cottonwood, where some employees have been there for two or more decades and SO many youths have benefited, just be called a budget cut???

I have been personally affected by all the defects in this App. I'm addicted and need for the questions to be answered by real people.
