Keeping Our Children Safe in Anneewakee TrailsAnneewakee Trails subdivision is one of the largest subdivisions in Douglas County, GA, with hundreds of our children attending school throughout Douglas County daily. Our children's safety should be our top priority, but vehicles parked along the roadways, in addition to speeding vehicles, are an increased hazard to our children's safety and should be stopped. Commissioner Kelly Robinson has proposed coordinating with the Board of Education to designate NO PARKING ZONES for bus stops, and to partner with the Department of Transportation, to install speed humps throughout the community.108 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Makalah Atkinson

Senate: Block Barron Vote Until DoJ Shares Drone MemosDavid Barron, formerly a lawyer in the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel, wrote a secret legal memo approving the September 2011 drone strike that killed two U.S. citizens. Now Barron has been nominated to the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals. The American Civil Liberties Union is calling on Senators to delay consideration of Barron’s nomination until all Senators have the opportunity to read all of the memos Barron has written on government killing with drone strikes. The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the Justice Department must make public portions of its memos justifying the extra-judicial killing of U.S. citizens with drones. But the Administration has not yet complied with the ruling. Join the ACLU in calling on the Senate to delay consideration of Barron’s nomination until the Administration has shared the drone strike memos by signing our petition.11,227 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Robert Naiman

Get our tax money backThe Times documented that the County's Homeless paid millions of dollars for years to house the homeless in crime-ridden slums. The refrain of the county is the county should be run as a business. When a business pays for a service that they do not receive , the business takes steps to obtain a refund. It is time that the county commission takes steps to obtain refunds of our tax money that was wasted on substandard housing/service.26 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elizabeth Belcher

Protect Net NeutralityI am able to provide my second language students with affordable tutoring and free supplementary information through my personal web page. I also use that space to schedule appointments and answer immediate student questions; we would be greatly hindered by price-driven limited access, especially given that we try to maintain affordability.22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alexandra Cannady

Human Overpopulation on Planet Earth!Does a truly Intelligent species overpopulate, pollute, poison, rape and murder their own Planet, committing its own destruction as a species in the process? No, a truly intelligent species does not. Let us try not to be a footnote in Galactic History as a species stupid enough to commit both Suicide and Planetary Biocide at the same time.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by STEPHEN J. JACOBS

Save the Skate Park!This petition is to save a well known and well loved skate park. The Harrison County Skate Park is in jeopardy of being shut down and turned into a film studio. The skate park is pretty much the only place kids can go to do what they love. Not only Harrison county, but people from across the South depend on the skate park being up and running. People who play Roller Derby, hockey, skate board, and BMX there. It is a place worth saving. It is a place with history. Plenty of people have been going there since they were younger and hundreds of people are wanting it to stay.472 of 500 SignaturesCreated by CG

Creation of elevated maglev train system that creates a countrywide Greenbelt system around it un...We need transport that is above collision, flood, and fire lines; that is energy producing in its design such as maglev, this elevated system will network, power, gas, water, and communications both beneath the elevated railbed and in addition hidden below the surface of the ground on which the pylons stand as extra backup for vital resources in any type emergency. There are 50,000 U.S. cities that currently have less than half of their original human populations; this system needs to incorporate this fact strategically in redesigning such municipalities for the Space Age that can only benefit the entire country from such a new North American Transport System that incorporates the Greenbelt concept of terraforming to enhance nature as well as natures role in protecting our vital and strategic new infrastructure design such as this elevated electromagnetic transport system. This one foundational project will recreate a New America for the next two centuries!6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Anton Christopher McInerney

Protect small farms in Michigan!Protecting small farms in Michigan should be a top priority. Many farmers' markets are a consortium of small farms producing local produce. This is a vital part of local economies in many areas in Michigan and around the country. Michigan lawmakers should support the rights of individuals not just the interest of big business.42,420 of 45,000 SignaturesCreated by George John Thompson
