It has become obvious that talking and texting while driving has made the roads more dangerous for all of us. I have seen people driving with a cellphone in one hand and a cigarette in the other. How can they possibly maintain control of their car under these conditions. Please sign this petition and tell Congress to enact legislation that will help save thousands of lives every year.

This petition is for residents and small businesses around the Gowanus area who have seen their routines disrupted by the street parking needs of film productions at Eastern Effects Studios at 270 Nevins Street.

A foreign country's inordinate influence on our foreign policy and the wars encouraged by them.

Harrison Street is being considered by the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission as a possible "Historical District." While I appreciate the ideals that the commission stands for, as one of many middle and working class homeowners in this area, this move would be a great financial burden. A resident of this block asked for two quotes during a recent home improvement. When he had siding put up he was told regular siding would cost $45,000. The Historic approved siding would cost $120,000! As a young homeowner with a 2-year-old child $45,000 would be hard enough. The latter price would be near impossible! We have kept this area stable and within the spirit of neighborhood without this NYC-initiated move. We homeowners wish it to remain this way. Let individual homeowners decide to apply for historic value for their own homes. Leave the fate of their property in their capable hands. We need your help! We constituents are calling upon you now to speak out on our behalf!

There are some people who are working hard to ban Fireworks in Utah. Sign this petition to keep Fireworks and Aerial Fireworks a like legal! Let's keep America's greatest tradition Strong! Share this with all your friends let's make our voices heard! Some want to ban fireworks because of the fires. Most of these fires aren't caused by Fireworks. I believe Fireworks do more good than bad. Sure we'll have a few dry seasons, but banning fireworks isn't the solution. Education and some common sense is a better approach, than banning them all together. Other people want to ban fireworks because they feel it is annoying - Banning fireworks for this reason is the wrong approach.

I just found out that the firefighters we see on the news risking their lives to put out forest fires are federally employed. According to the Forest Service, because these firefighters are considered "seasonal", they receive no health insurance due to a congressional law which prohibits it. This is just plain wrong and should be rectified by Congress as quickly as possible.

Under the Citizens United Ruling corporations were granted personhood. With personhood also comes the responsibility of taxation as a person for the greater good of society.

Petition to end term limits in Congress

Keep the dignity of these magnificent, intelligent animals. Please do not allow their slaughter and butchering.

Saving the life of Graham the Guinea Pig by adopting him.

When "religious" organizations such as the American Family Association solicit donations they are tax deductible. Yet the AFA blatantly supports Republican causes and events and directly makes anti-Obama statements.

Stop financing lawyers and demand states to require all finance documentation in child support cases. No more hiding incomes, tax files or salary information. It is your child you are hurting and hiding income from. It should not be a laborious ordeal to REQUIRE all finances to be submitted in the initial request for child support.
