Robert Pittenger refuses to debate Jennifer RobertsRobert Pittenger is the Republican candidate for the 9th congressional district in North Carolina. He is a multi millionaire who refuses to publicly debate Jennifer Roberts, the 8 year Meclenburg County commissioner. She is open to work across the isle and get things done. the 9th district is mostly Republican but Pittenger would lose if debated. Poles show the two neck and neck.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Genevieve Patterson

Stop the Capture of our American Wild HorsesI am broken hearted; at the callousness of our own government. What many consider; to be our "National Treasure"; the wild horse....is being Chased by Helicoptors, run into pens, overcrowded, run over, held in pens, hurt / or killed OR finally moved to pens; where known "Kill Buyers" purchase them and then they are taken to Mexico or Canada and slaughtered. The Bureau of Land Management is behind this. WE ARE LOSING THE VERY BREED; by the cruelest and sickest means. Horses have Families...they are used in therapies, many people love their horses. They carried us through so many aspects of our lives...wars, farming, moving,etc. The Wild Mustangs are a symbol of OUR own Freedom!!! Yet, we taxpayers are footing the bill; for these horrible decisions. Horrible Management. I ask to repeal the Burns Amendment and STOP capturing these Horses and the Burros.93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Barbara A. Dillon

Come on, moms and dads, let Mr. Romney know that Sesame Street and all PBS is off the chopping block. Thanks, Pat Bentrup (mother of 5; gmother of 6)5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pat Bentrup

Stopping the smoking ban in Durango CO.Durango CO is the process of bringing yet another smoking ban to bars and resturants in the city. The new ban would extend to smoking patios that many businesses in the area have. Many businsess spent money to build smoking areas when the first ban went into affect in 2006. This banned smoking inside workplaces, including bars and resturants, and you are no longer allowed to smoke within 15ft of the main enterance of a business. This new ban, that goes before City Council Oct. 16, has been lumped in with banning smoking in public parks and on the river trail. At the very least the issues need to be separated. Let the City do what they will with their property (parks, trails, etc.) but let the businesses determine what is best for them.220 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Jessica Cowan

Remove pseudo-science from House Science CommitteeConsider: Congressman Paul Broun (R-Ga.), a high-ranking member of the House Science Committee believes and espouses that the earth is only about 9,000 years old, despite proof to the contrary. Congressman Todd Akin (R-Mo), a member of the same House Science Committee, believes and espouses that a woman cannot get pregnant as a result of a "legitimate rape." Is it any wonder that the U.S. educational system is lagging in the sciences when compared with the rest of the developed world? Our policy-makers do not have the right to drag down our schools via their willful ignorance grounded in religion and wishful thinking. Our nation's future lies in the balance.1,102 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Jean Lawry

NRA: Your time is up!!Our politicians have been held hostage by the NRA for too many years. In the reflection of so many horrible gun massacres, it is unconscionable that we still legalize the ownership of assault weapons. Several years ago a study was made which proved that there are many more accidental deaths resulting from gun ownership than if they were limited. The NRA has successfully blackmailed most legislators, whether Democrat or Republican, from restricting the sale of assault weapons. What possible reason is there for ownership of these? To protect yourself or your property, if you feel you must, there is no reason to own anything more killing than a handgun.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Avis Pritzker
