  • This is a custom petition
    This is a custom petition, and I want to see if it's always marked as "suspicious," or something. Because that's what seems to have been happening.

  • Change Flickr Back!
    Recently Flickr did a remodel of the site and it was VERY poorly done. I am hoping to get at least 10,000 signatures to turn into Marissa Mayer. Please share this with all your friends! We need this to go viral.

  • HUMAN Healthy Vending Machines in Allen High School
    We are proposing that Allen High School remove the junk food machines from campus and replace them with HUMAN Healthy Vending Machines. Having healthy vending machines on campus would provide nutritious healthy snack options vs. junk food for the staff and students. It also will help the school make more money to better fund student programs and staff support. HUMAN also donates 10% of profits to charities that fight the causes of childhood obesity – a rapidly growing national epidemic that negatively affects kids’ learning, health and (unfortunately) self-esteems.

  • Say No to the Republican "Fix" for Student Loan Interest Rates
    The Smarter Solutions for Students Act (HR 1911) is a Republican plan that is the classic bait and switch. Worse yet, it could be voted on as soon as Wednesday, May 22. According to estimates provided by Congressional Budget Office, under the proposal, federal student interest rates will be higher than current fixed rates for millions of borrowers seven of the next ten years. The bill will make attending college more expensive for students and families, and deepen the student debt crisis. We must act now to make sure our members of Congress oppose this bill!

  • Stop the Bristol's House of Harmony - Honky Tonk
    This facility is located in the center of a residential neighborhood, and the additional traffic late at night by people that have been drinking is a detriment to our neighborhood and community. This facility, calling itself a "music venue" is simply a night club/honky tonk featuring live local bands and the service of alcohol and brown bagging of alcohol. This type of facility is not conducive to a residential area. There are additional environmental quality issues with the interior of the building that need to be addressed.

  • Make Mortgage Relief available for families in crisis who can't live together
    I have a brain tumor, a divorce pending and share ownership of a house that I had to leave with our 3 kids because my husband refused to move out. We tried to refinance our mortgage so we could rent the house out at an affordable rate to cover the mortgage before selling. Our tenant moved in with a year long lease and monthly payments covering the new mortgage amount, just as the refinance fell through. Because my husband and I had moved out of the house, it became an "investment property' so I was not eligible for help anywhere. Our tenant's rent covers the mortgage less $700 a month but the bank wants all or nothing. Our savings are gone and our income is spent on our own rental accommodation. With my credit rating plummeting and my lease ending soon, foreclosure is looming and possible homelessness. Rentals are hard to find when you have bad credit. My health and children's welfare is at risk as we are falling through the safety net - an exception to the 'Making Home Affordable' eligibility needs to be made on compassionate grounds.

  • Family law legal practices need stricter regulations for the lawyers
    Despicably low standard of family lawyers lacking proper regulation and punishment by the Washington Bar Association that is fraternizing with the lawyers they are investigating and pride themselves on the increased amount of com paints while setting the fines for lawyers deliberately low. For a lawyer to be punished by WSBA it has to be a criminal vs ethical misconduct.

  • FDA: Post consumer warnings where we can see them!
    Every day, every person in this country faces potentially lethal food products. Have you heard of the FDA Reportable Food Registry that lists products that have a “reasonable probability of causing serious adverse effects”? I believe that the FDA has the responsibility to inform consumers of possible risks and we have the RIGHT to make informed decisions. My name is Terry Safranek, and my beloved dog Sampson was a victim of tainted chicken jerky treats made in China – a product that has been under investigation by the FDA since 2007! Days after eating one of these treats, days of suffering, we had to make the heartbreaking decision to let him go. I had no idea that there was (and still is) a major ongoing investigation by the FDA. The danger doesn’t stop at pet treats. Prescription drugs, baby formula, black licorice and pet treats are just some of items that are currently under FDA Advisory. The only way to find these warnings is to search on-line. The average consumer doesn't compare their grocery list to the FDA website, nor should they be expected to do so. And if you don't have internet access, how are you supposed to learn what products might be putting your family at risk? In 2011, Congress finally enacted - and President Obama signed into law - the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) which explicitly gives the FDA the authority to post warnings at the retail locations where the product is sold. With just a simple piece of paper posted on store shelves, millions of American families can be spared the consequences of purchasing potentially dangerous products. There are so many loopholes that allow hazards to reach our homes and families. This is our last line of defense!

  • Presidential Perception
    The apparent lack of strong response and emotionally appropriate leadership style coming from the President in regard to the almost maniacal pursuit of those politicians who so desperately want to defame him and cause him as much trouble as possible.
