Make law enforcement in Oklahoma wear cameras to be held accountableOver the past years we have seen increasingly violent police brutality and also law enforcement trying to violate personal rights! Please sign this petition to let Gov. Mary Fallen that we will not have our rights violated anymore. This has worked in California by decreasing numbers of complaints on officers to around 60 %. This should be introduced in Oklahoma immediately.161 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Justin Harris

Disabled ex spouses should not face garnishment for Ex's debtI've been the victim of the US Dept of Education for over 14 years and have been discharged temporarily because of my disabilities three times but they continue to transfer it over to another creditor instead of pursuing my ex husband who is very gainfully employed who's wife refuses he pay his portion on the joint consolidation. We jointly consolidated as newly weds and I subsequently suffered a disabling car accident, a second stroke, heart attack, open heart surgery, tumors, etc. I also have 10 year old special needs twins and am an only living parent-one is autistic. I must provide for us all while he enjoys suitable employment in a position my brother promoted him to. The government has given me the run around, I've contacted senators, aclu, congress, ombudsman and the attorney General. I'm desperate and being told that I am responsible for his portion because I signed the joint consolidation (not as a primary) and was sent a letter from the treasury informing me that I may face a garnishment of up to 15% monthly and further tax offsets. They informed me that they didn't have to pursue my ex husband because I signed first.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Doris Maldonado

Create a State Bank-Move S.204Currently, Vermont pays millions of dollars in interest and fees to big out of state financial institutions and other entities. Most of this money does not come back to the state and is not available for use by the state to increase economic vitality and the quality of life for Vermonters. Some of these institutions have been found to engage in rigging everything they can for their own enrichment. Creation of a state bank would keep this money in VT The parent company of TD Bank NA, where VT deposits most of its checkbook funds, has derivative contracts which are valued at 5 times its total assets. In the event of another collapse like the one in 2008, it is possible that Vermont could see its deposits confiscated to "bail-in" TD Bank. Putting our public monies into a state bank would prevent this from happening. S.204 would create a "10 Percent for Vermont Program" and extend full banking powers to the Vermont Economic Development Authority. Initially, 10% of VT's unrestricted funds would be deposited in the state bank to be used in partnership with community banks to fund projects which would contribute to Vermont's economy. This is a modest start which would require capitalization of about $7 million. The bank would not be designed to compete with community banks. It would be designed to expand their ability to enhance prosperity in the state. The Senate Finance Committee must take up and approve this bill by the end of the day on March 21. Currently, it looks like it is unlikely that the committee is going to act on this bill. We need to let the committee know that there are a lot of Vermonters who support this bill. Please sign this petition and pass it on to as many people as you can. The more people who sign it, the more likely that the committee will act on the bill.282 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Gary Murphy
