Demand Congress Take Action on Puerto Rico's Political StatusPuerto Rico has been a colony of our country since 1898. Puertoricans are citizens of the U.S. by birth. It is high time to either grant Puerto Rico independence or do what is right and grant statehood to the island. During the November 6th elections, 54% of the population voted to end the present relationship with the US. Of that number, 61% voted for statehood.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carlos A Carrion

New Orleans City Council: Stop Sewerage & Water Board Rate HikeThe recent proposal to raise Sewer & Water rates 10% in New Orleans over a period of time is outrageous. What with rental increases, low wages & just high living expenses, it's hard enough to make ends meet. This is a poor state with over half living below the poverty level. We just can't afford this rate increase.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carolyn A. Bell

The Truth about BLM & Wild Horses in the WestI have watched a documentary that gave clear evidence from persons affected in their careers with BLM and from those who advocate for the Wild Horses. It showed hard evidence (documents) of corruption within BLM as well their intent to systematically exterminate the wild horses throughout Nevada, Idaho & Wyoming for the purpose of "clearing the way"for BP Oil to install the Ruby pipeline in the near future. Those wild horse herds will obstruct BP's efforts as they will not be able to pass an EIS if horses are present. This is destruction of a national heritage, our Wild Horse Herd and we must stop BLM in their tracks.56 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sharon Comer

Mayor Bob Filner: Make Poverty a PriorityIt's a tragedy that anyone in San Diego should live in poverty, especially those who work hard every day and still struggle to support themselves or a family. Our city government can do much to combat working poverty, with policies that focus on living wages, access to affordable healthcare and creating quality jobs for San Diego residents. When all working people can support themselves and have money in their pockets to spend at local businesses, the entire city will benefit and we’ll finally be on our way to rebuilding our local economy.26 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Clare Crawford

If a person is under 50 and bedriddenMy son is under 50 and it seems to make a huge difference in whether he will get care in order to walk again; it doesn't make sense when this is the time in his life that he needs to raise his young kids and give them a good life, providing for them and coaching them with basketball, taking them fishing and the like, he needs to stop being ignored by the system.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Yvonne Reyes
