• Help U.S. military women raped by fellow-soldiers
    U.S. military women soldiers in record numbers have been raped by fellow-soldiers, often officers. They currently do not receive the help they need--financial, psychological, and physical--including abortions, if they become pregnant and choose not to carry to term the fetus of a rapist. They deserve our help and respect for their work to protect U.S. interests at home and abroad.

  • Todd Akin has to go!
    Congressman Todd Akin (R) is currently running for the Senate in Missouri. He recently stated that women don't get pregnant from legitimate rape! While he is backpedaling hard right now, he is CLEARLY too biased, uneducated, and extremist to even remotely represent the people of Missouri, or anyone else for that matter! Conservative or liberal, doesn't matter: Todd, time for you to resign!

  • Bring back The Equal Rights Admendment
    This petition would bring the Admendment to the forefront again in order to obtain the final 3 states needed to satisfy the total of 38 states needed to finalize ratification. All American women would benefit from the ratification of this admendment. It is becoming clear that women's rights are under fire by politicians because they do not recognize the Constitution as applying to women, therefore making women subject to discrimination (Anton Scalia has said as much). Much of the manipulating of women's lives by politicians would go away if this admendment became part of our governing document.

  • Atlas Shrugged...Really, Paul Ryan?
    Get the word out that Paul Ryan claims reading Atlas Shrugged inspired him into public service. What would Ayn Rand, author of Atlas Shrugged, think of Paul Ryan's policies? "Abortion is a moral right - which should be left to the sole discretion of the woman involved; morally, nothing other than her wish in the matter is to be considered. Who can conceivably have the right to dictate to her what disposition she is to make of the functions of her own body?" -- Ayn Rand

  • National Womens Day
    My petition it's about recognizing the contributions of that women have made towards the greatness of our country. each one of the women named had an integral part in reshaping our nation's treatment of both African American slaves and disenfranchised women. As a woman I owe of these women a debt of gratitude because I can vote. As an American I owe these women a debt of gratitude because they fought tirelessly and bravely, risking everything, to end the enslavement of people in this country thus allowing United States to join the rest of the civilized world in banning slavery forever.

  • South Dakota abortion law uses false information
    South Dakota wants doctors to lie to women seeking abortion by forcing doctors to inform women that having an abortion increases their risk of suicide. As one of my family members committed suicide, I find this law to be not only demeaning to a woman's choice regarding pregnancy, but to the very real problem of suicide. The law is based on faulty, misrepresented information and is merely fear-mongering on the part of the lawmakers.
