  • Petition against 14th Avenue name change to Dr. Ephirim Williams Avenue
    I have been a resident of 14th Avenue in Sacramento for over 30 years and would consider this steet name change a great financial burden and inconvenience as I would have to inform banks, creditors, insurance companies, friends and family. The cause to change 14th Avenue is not great enough as we all contribute to make our community better.

  • Hands Off Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid Benefits!
    Cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits would impact the most vulnerable among us. Let's stand up for seniors, veterans, the disabled, and future generations of Americans, and protect these hard-earned benefits -- instead of continued tax breaks for billionaires and Wall Street. It’s not enough to voice opposition to such cuts. We want Representative Huffman to sign the Grayson-Takano letter, making a firm commitment to vote against any cuts. The letter reads, in part, "We write to let you know that we will vote against any and every cut to Medicare, Medicaid or Social Security benefits." We ask Rep. Huffman to join the 28 members of Congress who have signed the letter: Brown, Cartwright, Castor, Clay, Conyers, D. Davis, DeFazio, Ellison, Faleomavaega, Grayson, G. Green, Grijalva, Gutierrez, A. Hastings, Honda, Kaptur, Lee, Lynch, C. Maloney, Markey, McGovern, Nadler, Napolitano, Nolan, Serrano, Takano, Velazquez, and Waters.

  • Don’t cut services for people with special needs in New York. Restore the 6%.
    The Governor’s proposed budget reduces monies for the Office of People with Developmental Disabilities by more than 7% from the 2012 level and imposes a 6% rate cut on non-profit service providers who care for those with special needs- at a cost far below when the state provides the services directly. At the same time, Albany leadership is considering at least $700 million in new tax cuts. The Assembly and the Senate proposed budgets would restore the 6% ($120 million which triggers an equal federal match). Public reports indicate that the Governor will accept the tax cuts but resists restoring the 6%.

  • NJ Transit Service Problems
    This petition is about the out-of-hand service problems with NJ Transit trains and buses. The person at NJ Transit headquarters are adversed to addressing blanket situations which continue to grow and get worse, and are only willing to take individual complaints which have been ineffective. The agency overall has spent more money on image and advertising then proper service facilities and eqiptment. The system is being run poorly to the point where it is affecting the quality of life for many New Jerseyans.

  • Join a march on Washington DC and the state capitals across the country on MAY 25 and 26th to s...
    There are more than 58,000 homeless seniors and another nine million seniors who can't afford to pay their bills already. Chained CPI will add to those numbers of vulnerable seniors and disabled people who are already struggling to make ends meet. The current CPI already does NOT keep up with inflation, and every year more seniors fall into the category of vulnerable, food insecure, homeless, and unable to pay for basic living expenses. NO CHAINED CPI and INCREASE SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS!

    My petition is about the Chained CPI increase in IL and other 49 states in the United States. We have a lot people who are on Social Security Benefits and they need a raise in the Chained CPI, so that they can live a better life and be able to afford their finances and take care of their families. The increase in the Chained CPI is worth it and it is not a waist of money to our taxpayers.

  • Save extra food for shelters
    I see restaurants and stores throw away food all the time. I heard about a boy starting a petition to end this before in another state. All the shelters or food banks have to do in order to receive the leftover food is sign off on suing if a person gets sick from the food. Please sign this and show that you care about people and are tired of this waste!

  • Stop Boeing from pushing to slash Soc Sec/Medicare & Medicaid under the Guise of 'FIX the DEBT.'
    Founded by a former Nixon man turned Wall Street billionaire, the phony campaign known as "Fix the Debt" is the nation's single largest advocate of slashing benefits in Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. And unfortunately, it's being propped up by some of the nation's largest corporations, including Boeing, which is headquartered in Illinois.
