Will you help to encourage President Obama to support the National Cesar E. Chavez Blood Drive Challenge? Only 3% of the U.S. Latino/Hispanic population donate blood, yet it is the fastest growing segment of our population. We can turn this situation around into a solution for our entire nation. Let's increase Latino/Hispanic participation in blood donation and bone marrow registry by inviting more Latino/Hispanic student leaders on more college campuses to take on this challenge. It's working! Over 70,000+ college students have participated already. We would like President Obama to support the campaign by possibly inviting some of the student leaders to the White House. What do you think?

Because

I am unhappy with the treatment of farm animals. I feel that we have a responsibility to treat animals with more dignity, care, and respect than they are currently receiving.

Animals can not tell us when they are harmed and they can not make change. Animals deserve rights but have no voice,it's up to us to do the right thing and put a stop to these persistent crimes against animals.

I am a psychoanalyst. I have started this petition because recent revelations (e.g., NY Times, 5 September 2013) make it clear that messages -- even encrypted messages -- which I exchange with my patients (via e-mail, IM, telephone, or Skype) can and will be intercepted, decrypted, and analyzed by the NSA. This violates HIPAA regulations and seriously interferes with my ability to communicate with the very people to whom I have promised that what they tell me will be kept in complete confidence. When trust is undermined in the psychotherapeutic or psychoanalytic arena, I am no longer able to do my work.

I want children at Deborah Brown Community School to be able to have their natural afro's and dread lock styles seen proudly in school everyday. : )

United Sportsmen lied about their tax status to receive this grant money. They are a partisan group who is now about to use public money. What's worse than the initial half a million we taxpayers are gifting them with is that this grant is set to renew automatically every two years without needing to re-apply. Unacceptable! Sign and tell the DNR they must rescind this grant! You can read more about this here: http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/news/222540421.html

The health of the dogs chained up and the excessive barking all day and all night. These dogs are covered in dirt and flies.

To remind the congress, and the president, that forming a more perfect Union begins with the people, and with prudent steps to establish fact, and effective action to deescalate hostility while simultaneously ending and prosecuting criminal humanitarian actions.

Since there is more information on chemical harassment, it is time to make an action to stop the creation of these chemicals and to stop this behavior of spraying the environment and indoors to disable .The creators of these chemicals have discovered the Pathway from the lungs to all parts of the body. These chemicals are focused on any part to disable. The chemicals get into the Respiratory System then in the Nervous System to cause pain and disability, plus into any Vital Organ to disable and cause death to its victims. I am affected by these chemicals and so are my friends and acquaintances plus others. This behavior has caused some of my friends to die because of their faulty Vital Organs which was attacked by these chemicals. This chemical harassment affects animals, my cats died and so was a harasser's cat. This chemical harassment must be stopped and the chemicals must be assessed and tested for the sake of Humanity. This is happening in a few States in America so it is vital that this behavior is stopped so that others will be aware of it and follow suit.

On March 20, 2007, Delta announced a new comprehensive compensation package for employees that would take effect shortly after our emergence from bankruptcy in May 2007. One component of the new package was a profit sharing program. The announcement read: “Delta’s profit-sharing plan will pay out at least 15% of Delta’s annual pre-tax profit.” As of January 01, 2013, Delta reduced our profit sharing pool to 10% of annual pre-tax profit, and is no longer honoring the commitment made to Delta employees for the vigilant efforts and repeated sacrifices we made starting in 2002 and ending with our emergence from bankruptcy in 2007. It has been repeatedly stated by Delta executive leadership that the reason for the one-third profit sharing pool reduction was “it was what you said you wanted in the 2012 Delta Employee Survey.” While the full survey results are not available for employees to view (as is a common business practice), a summary was released, which includes no mention of any desire by employees to have our profit sharing pool reduced. In fact, there is no mention of the employee profit sharing program anywhere in the summary. One of the five core values of Richard's "Rules of the Road" is "Always keep your deals - Integrity." Delta as an organization is not following its own "Rules of the Road" set forth by our CEO in 2007 and updated as recently as February 2013. We employees have made countless sacrifices and worked vigilantly for years to return Delta to profitability. We’re not asking for anything extra or new. We’re only asking that Delta keep its deal with its employees and reinstate the profit sharing pool to 15% of Delta’s annual pre-tax profit. For this petition to be successful, we will need broad support across all Delta employee workgroups, and we are counting on you to share this petition with as many colleagues as possible via email, text and facebook for maximum visibility. Flight attendants, pilots, reservations & gate agents, ramp, maintenance & administrative personnel are all affected by this decision to reduce the profit sharing pool. This petition is a vehicle for you to personally tell Delta executive leadership what you want, as opposed to having them tell you what you want. Thank you for your support.

This petition has been started in support of all of the Memphis, TN viewers of "Live With Kelly and Michael" who love watching this show.
