Safe Bus Stops Along State RoadsThe bus stop waiting areas and stopping locations along State roads in Florida and elsewhere are appallingly unsafe. It is horrible to see people standing in the grass, in ditches, in the mud etc. Also, there are almost no bus pull outs and buses stop in the moving traffic lane on state roads where the speed limit is 45-55 mph. There have been numerous rear end collisions with buses. Every week across the US there are State road projects yet they are not making them safer for people who need to ride the bus. Everyone is in favor of more bus ridership and less private vehicles yet it is extremely dangerous and unsafe to get on and off the bus on most state roads.57 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sue Lang

Nominate Sheila Bair as Treasury SecretaryWomen represent 53% of the electorate; we manage home finances as well as businesses. It is time that the Federal Treasury be managed to embrace issues for women as well as Wall Street. Sheila Bair was head of the FDIC before and during the Financial Crisis. She challenged both Paulson and Geithner on their approaches to dealing with the crisis. Appointed by George Bush in 2006, she brings the experience of being at the table during the financial crisis, a woman's perspective, and the potential for bi-partisan support and approaches to crucial Treasury decisions this year and forward. Let's have the nation's Treasury headed by a representative of 53% of the electorate.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Martha Sipe

On Gun SafetyFor me, the issue is not so much gun control as gun safety. In the US, we have an epidemic of gun-related deaths and injuries. The US, with about 5% of the world’s population, own more than 50% of the world’s guns. We have one of the highest murder rates of any nation. We have a large number of accidental deaths with guns. I believe that the issues of gun safety is similar to the issue of automobile safety, and that a system of regulations on gun ownership paralleling the regulations on automobile safety is appropriate. In addition, every gun owner should carry liability insurance just as automobile owners do. Such liability insurance should be expensive enough that ownership of many guns is discouraged. The incidence of gun-related accidents in the homes of law enforcement officials is significantly less than that in the homes of others. One of the ready sources of unregistered guns used in crimes is gun theft. We need a long-term goal of having every gun registered and linked to its owner.59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lloyd Edwards

Quick, Inexpensive, Easy Action to School Shootings-The increased shootings in schools and other public arenas. As the political corrupt... I mean unfairness , continues and people are dragged down further into despair, I believe these things will not only continue but probably get worse . Hopelessness is a creeping illness and as we see the government give more to the rich and Corporations and less to the We, The People , only those who wish to stay blind to the results and consequences will continue to deny , and act surprised when these things happen.264 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Janice Savage
