• Bring Mommycon to Atlanta, Georgia!
    This petition is in the hopes that we can get the attention of Mommycon and have them come to Atlanta, Georgia for an event. Why do we want them here and what are they? Mommycon is a "mom and pop" run event that hosts events in different cities all across the US. They are a source of information for all moms, no matter if you are still pregnant, recently gave birth, or have a few littles running around already. Although every event is different, they boast birth professionals, lactation consultants, baby carriers and wraps and experts to help you try them out yourself, the newest baby products, snacks for the young ones, and so much more! They provide scheduled speakers on topics such as plus size births, breastfeeding, health and nutrition for both mom and baby, postpartum depression and attachment parenting. Kids are allowed as well as family members or anyone else you'd like to bring along. Please sign my petition to get their attention! They would be an asset to our community and provide resources that are essential to some, if not all, mommies here.

  • ALL Counties in the State of Florida to have MANDATORY Spay and Neuter
    Too many animals are dying needlessly in Florida shelters and Government facilities. This can be eradicated with the order of Mandatory spay and neuter of all pets. Breeders must be registered, have a license and pay a fee, license fee shall be re-invested in the spay and neuter program for people to get their animals altered. Working dogs would also be exempt. Back yard breeding has to end.

  • Murals in Downtown Mesa's Arts and Culture District
    Art Installations are an integral part of a growing city's infrastructure. They create wonder, excitement and foster a better sense of community. Downtown Mesa is a growing hub of arts and culture, however, the streetscapes on Main Street and surrounding areas do not portray the direction in which the district is moving. As of right now, the permitting process for a mural in Mesa is very expensive with long wait times for approval. We would like to simplify this process with a smaller processing fee to allow for more creative art expression in the Arts and Culture District, specifically Main Street and the blocks around it.

  • SSD OUR RIGHT
    I have been denied. I am still waiting. It takes 12 to 14 months to get a hearing. Meanwhile, you are waiting, and during the wait, people have lost their homes, have died or just plain given up. Please help to get the process faster so people who truly deserve it get it. People like me. Thanks.

  • Urge Facebook to prohibit promotion of animal cruelty
    I refuse to have violence as a daily ingredient. I believe that when we are exposed to such content, what at first is gruesome with time it becomes normal, we can get used to violence, as humans we cannot remain sensitive to what today looks outrageous because we need to adapt. Whenever I have reported violent content pages to Facebook they claim they don't see violence in an image such as the ones displayed by "Peleas de perros" (a Facebook community whose name translates as Dog fights) for instance. This is the reason why I started this petition.

  • Save Our Kids-Block the Creepypasta website or shut it down
    As a mental health professional, I have seen, first hand, how Creepypasta negatively influences teens with mental health issues. We will continue to have violent behaviors from sick kids as long as their negative impulses are justified through this website, which they currently have free and unfettered access to.

  • Signs Save Lives: Zoning Bylaws to Allow for Lost Pet Signs
    Currently many communities have zoning bylaws in place that prohibit the posting of lost pet signs. I have been impacted by these bylaws. Two and half years ago, my Siberian husky, Bridgett, went missing and these zoning laws cost me thousands of dollars and impeded my ability to locate and trap my dog. I am not alone in this. There are many, many pet owners fighting the same battle. I am a certified Missing Animal Response Technician trained by Kat Albrecht, the founder of Missing Pet Partnership. I am also the team leader for their Lost Pet Consultants. I understand missing animal behavior and know how long they can survive on their own. These bylaws need to be amended. There is a simple win/win solution for the communities and the pet owners. All we want is to bring our pets home. Let's make this happen.

  • We want King on the $20 bill!
    It's appalling that the same man who forced almost 50,000 Native Americans off their lands and forced them on a death march is still honored on our currency.

  • We Need More Bike Lanes in Bushwick!
    It is imperative that the neighborhoods of Bushwick and East Williamburg, Brooklyn receive more dedicated bike lanes, specifically on Broadway between Marcy Avenue and Gates Avenue. On June 10th , 2014, Zack Xochil Fortune, an acquaintance of mine and a neighborhood figure, was hit by a car and killed at the intersection of Boradway and Myrtle. I live in Bushwick and just like many other community members I ride a bike every day for both recreation and work. With the increase in people living in my community - the number of cars, pedestrians, bikers and other commuters has vastly risen creating a dangerous environment for cyclists. Bicycle safety is personal to me on multiple levels and the catastrophe that took a fellow citizens life may have been prevented if proper action had been taken sooner. This is an issue of public and individual safety and with the addition of more bike lanes, the quality of life in our neighborhood will be greatly improved.
