• Save WINORR (Nassau County's premier wildlife rehabber)
    For 25 years this couple has saved Long Island's Wildlife in Need of Rescue and Rehabilitation (WINORR). They have federal and state licenses for wildlife rehabilitation and help animals from ducks to foxes thrive in this developed area. But this crucial group could be shut down by the town of Oyster Bay, Long Island based Oyster Bay residents alleged complaints, the town has decided ducks, turkeys, hawks and baby foxes are "dangerous animals," thus making it illegal to keep them in a residential area under a town ordinance.

  • Repeal illegal WI. State Parks hunting law
    This petition was written by the Wisconsin Safe Parks group with members across Wisconsin. Please put your county on the sign in page or in the comment square. All 72 counties In WI voted to allow hunting in State Parks at the WCC meeting in April 2011. Yet 6 months later, without a public hearing, the assembly snuck in amendments to AB311 that allowed hunters to share the same space as all other recreational users... in most areas... of each state park in Wisconsin...for more than 7 months. This violates WI law 19.81 because "...a representative government of the American type is dependent upon an informed electorate....the public is entitled to the ... most complete information regarding the affairs of government..." 19.97 says ..."any action taken ...in violation of this subchapter is voidable..." This concern has strong bipartisan support from the most conservative to the most liberal constituents. State parks are used year round by many people for many reasons. Most hunters are against sharing hunting space in State Parks and the subsequent liability. People have a right to be safe when using State Parks that have been paid for with taxes, donations and volunteer hours. This law curtails each State Park's ability to manage plants, animals and people effectively. The pro hunting DNR board with diminishing relevant knowledge and experiences in biology and botany unfortunately make the decisions under Act 168

  • Congress: Save American Skydiving
    President Obama's 2014 budget will charge a $100 user fee per flight for plane operators. Skydiving drop zones may fly 25 flights a day, or operate two planes, costing a possible $5000 a DAY. The US Parachute Association (USPA) has written to the President to change this proposed fee as well, but they need our support!

  • Alzheimer's Facilities: GPS Wander Guard Bracelets
    Many Alzheimer's and Dementia Facilities use a Bracelet that sounds an alarm when a wandering patient walks outside. However the Bracelet does not have a GPS tracking device, and if the staff is unable to, or does not act on the alarm immediately, the patient may be at serious risk. My Mother-in-law who had dementia walked out of a Alzheimer's facility and although an alarm was tripped the staff was not aware of her missing for at least an hour. Despite a massive search including the family, staff, city, county, and State police she was found dead of hypothermia many hours later. She could have been found immediately with a GPS tracking device!

  • Support The Bee Research and Discovery Center
    Anyone who eats food knows that bees pollinate over 30% of the food we eat and 80 - 90% of flowering plants. Without bees pollinating our flowers you would never eat an apple or an orange again unless a human pollinated each flower individually.

  • Save the goats
    Kaysville City wants us to get rid of our pigmy goats because we only have 18,600 square feet of property and the city ordinance requires 20,000 square feet to keep goats, sheep or llamas. Our goats are very friendly and they do not bother any of the neighbors, they all actually enjoy them. This needs to be stopped, the goats are a part of our family and they help us very much with our yard work, weeding.

  • Save the American Folk Art Museum
    Isn't the point of design to foster innovative and creative types of work? The city of New York is known for many things; but most of all because of it's amazing conglomeration of architecture. Stop tearing down these unique buildings!! http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/11/arts/design/moma-to-raze-ex-american-folk-art-museum-building.html?smid=fb-share&_r=0

  • Gosport Public Access Site
    Currently, there are Public Access Sites in Paragon and Spencer. Gosport is in the middle of these two sites. In the case of a canoe trip, this middle ground would provide a perfect one-day trip. This would also increase tourism and commerce in our community.

  • Cell Phone Tower: Morgan County Human Society
    Morgan County Humane Society, a non-profit, no kill shelter is trying to get a cell phone tower on our property in Morgan County, just outside of Hartselle, AL. Not only will this provide the shelter with much needed funds to maintain the facility and care for the animals, it will provide the community better coverage in an area with limited coverage. We've been told we need 5,000 signatures for a tower to be considered on our property. Please help us and the animals!

  • Florida Insurance Regulatory Reform Act
    Require full financial disclosure of all insurance companies and any and all related companies, including offshore subsidiaries. Our homeowners insurance rates are rising very fast and all we hear is excuse after excuse about their financial condition. Without having to present complete and truthful financial disclosure our regulators are flying blind.
