Save the Wolves!Revoke the despicable rider that the GOP tacked on to the last budget (even though it had nothing to do with the budget).Revoke that despicable rider that removed wolves from the Endangered Species List....thereby depriving them of the protections that they sorely need and deserve.

Friday not Monday!For decades workers have been faced with 3-day weekends (Sat-Sun-Mon) created by observing certain Federal holidays on a Monday. This has created a four-day hell week where Tuesday is Monday and bosses expect 5 days worth of work in four. Everyone is miserable on Tuesday. If the holidays were moved instead to Fridays, the week following a 3-day weekend would start with a real Monday and be normal routine for workers and students alike. The week with the Friday off would be busy but would be high morale because of the upcoming Friday off. Implementation would take a few years because the hospitality industry books one-two years out. But the basic concept is almost a no-brainer: normal routine, happier people; still have the 3-day weekends, but no more TWThF hell weeks!12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by TJ McMahon

Permanent Revision to Extend Child Support for Special Needs ChildrenThis petition is about creating permanent new laws in both Federal and State law that extend child support for special needs children. Current laws for child support are not specific enough and are making it difficult for parents of special needs children who by law (both Federal and State) have throughout their 21st year to complete a high school diploma. Special needs students who receive child support need to receive this at least through th eage of 21 or longer if they are not yet emanciapated or self-supporting.106 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Mary Sterns

Save the animalsKY is low on the list on animal welfare. The abuse is a serious issue. It is up to us to let the government know that life is important and the risk of animal cruelty leading to the risk of these same people harming people is possible. No animal should endure physical, emotional, or psychological abuse and it has to stop.127 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Deborah Walton
