I'm tired of Corporations having one standard & the general public another one. I also do not think it makes sense from a water shortage stand point for Nestle to bottle the public's water at probably almost no cost to them and then charge the general public.

The Senate’s Energy Policy Modernization Act of 2015 (S.2015) isn’t what it claims to be. Instead, it’s just more of the same dirty energy policy: cuts to energy efficiency programs, accelerated approval for liquefied natural gas exports, and no real plan to decrease fossil fuel use or increase renewable energy. Sign the petition to tell your senators to say NO to this dirty energy bill.

I am starting this petition because the one who murdered my mother Darlene Knox, August 18th of 2003 is up for a parole hearing next September of 2016. She has missed out on so much in the past 12 years, and never even got to meet her 4 grandchildren. It hurts everyday that she is not here, and Roger A. Toothaker needs to pay for the horrific thing he did, not only to my mother,but her family and friends. She was a loving and amazing person as you all may know, and had a heart of gold. This should never have happened. When I go up in front of the board next year, at the hearing, they will have read this, and what everyone says on here about her. Please sign this, and comment what you would like to tell them! Thank you all!

I've been utilizing Planned Parenthood for my reproductive health care needs for eight years. It is vital to communities nationwide and our government is threatening to cut off funding for this crucial organization. We need a spending bill passed by October 1, and some in Congress are refusing to pass a spending bill without the removal of funding for Planned Parenthood. There isn't enough support for a filibuster and President Obama would certainly veto any spending bill that has Planned Parenthood's cutoff included. This is a waste of time and Congress needs to do the bare minimum of its basic functions: pass a spending bill!

Africans today still suffer from the PTSD and trauma passed down thru DNA from the worst holocaust (maafa) known to man. Since Papal Bulls greenlit this horrific crime against us it is only fitting that a Papal Bull be issued that sanctions reparations for Africans world-wide by the European Governments and the United States Government that participated and profited from this horrific crime against Africans world-wide.

Larry Lessig is running for president for one reason: Fixing democracy can’t wait. The best way to reach the most people with this message is to get Larry into the debates. In order to qualify, the DNC is mandating that 3 national media polls find him at 1% or more. He needs our support to be in the debates. Let's help him get there!

To encourage the Waco City Council to pass an ordinance banning single use plastic bags. Bans or fees have been instituted in 31 countries and over 100 U.S. cities. Studies have found such policies effective in reducing local plastic litter.

Monsanto has a new genetically engineered (GMO) corn, altered to withstand the herbicide dicamba — a harsh chemical that threatens the health of the public, the livelihoods of farmers and the environment. The USDA is considering Monsanto's proposal right now and is accepting public comments. We must ask the USDA to complete a full environmental review and ensure our health and environmental safety before approving Monsanto's new GMO corn!

Let's teach GOP haters a lesson and give Planned Parenthood supporters a tangible way to fight back against the Right Wing War on Women.

The thought of losing such a significant historical building anywhere is devastating. This building was built by one of the Georgetown/Silver Plume Historic Landmark District's highly respected doctors during the Victorian silver boom. This act goes against everything the National Historic Landmark designation stands for.

I tried to contact the bank in 2008 when my ex-partner and father of my children lost his job and left our home, declaring bankruptcy and neglecting to contribute financially to the household. The bank told me they could not talk to me until I was in default for 3 months. So I went into default and started talking to them. I filed application after application for a making home affordable loan and continue to do so to this day. Six years later I am at the end of the foreclosure process and am being denied the right to tell my side of the story to the judge. I have been trying to negotiate with the bank and several different servicers for 6 years. Every time I would get somewhere the loan would be sold or the servicer changed and I would have to begin again. I have applied for several making home affordable loans. All the bank has offered is a reduction in interest rate from the original 2005 6.15% down to 2%. This was not enough to make my home affordable. The bank has not offered a principle reduction. I am a single mom who raised 2 children on my own. I have been through the mandatory conference period with the bank and court referee. At times the bank's representative didn't even show up. The referee ruled in the banks favor despite this and the case has proceeded to the judge. Furthermore the bank filed a summons and complaint in October of 2012 before the resale of my loan was filed with the county clerk. This is illegal. The bank has not yet provided the original loan document either. The bank has also been implicated in wrong doing regarding mortgage fraud etc. In2012 I consulted a lawyer who answered the banks petition. It cost $250. Then in December 2014, I consulted, Liz Gavin Esq. at Legal Services of the Hudson Valley who told me I may have a statue of limitations and that my case was slated for February 2015. Liz Gavin also told me the judge had never ruled in favor of a homeowner in his entire career. Legal Services dropped my case in January of 2015. I received not a single letter from the bank or the court explaining what was happening with my case. Judge Peter M. Foreman is handling my case. Index# 7609 (2012). I called the court to find out what the judge decided and the clerk told me the judge asked the bank for some paperwork and will reconvene on October 24, 2015. That is next month! I have no lawyer, no money to spend on one and there is a waiting list for free legal services. I was told I was not even allowed to be present in the courtroom but that I could write the judge a letter. This seems preposterous. I thought I had a right to defend myself in a court of law. How can I get help in publicizing these injustices and getting my day in court?
