YEMEN-ANOTHER DISASTER FOR CIVILIANS The conflict in Yemen is a civil war that can only be resolved by political negotiations. Since the start of Saudi bombing, supported by the US, hundreds of thousands of civilians have been displaced and hundreds have been killed. The United Nations, The European Union, Iran and Pakistan are calling for a diplomatic solution. Saudi Arabia has been bombing Yemen, killing and displacing innocent people and cutting off food supplies, water, and access to medicine. The United States is providing arms and bombs to Saudi Arabia. This must be stopped. Call President Obama at (202)456-1111. Tell him to: 1-Join with the UN, European Union and Pakistan to negotiate a political solution; 2-Call for an end to military intervention, and an arms embargo; 3-Assist with humanitarian help to the people of Yemen

I saw the result of my 14-year-old son's suicide 13 years ago. My first reaction was to run to him and pick him up. A twenty six minute hell ensued and the result was crushed vertebrae in my neck that hurt from morning to night. Now, I am American Strong so I built a swimming business because being in the pool helps but I am only one little story and there are a million of them more than mine. If it is a Medical Doctor, why would you not allow them to prescribe a natural plant that works equal to many pain and PTSD drugs, just to name a few?

Many of us are very concerned about the future development of our Neighborhood. Many of us bought homes in this neighborhood under the premise that it would only have 200 homes in it. Many of us bought premium lots and were told that no homes would be built behind our premium lots. Many of us are concerned about the safety of our children with the increase traffic that this new development will bring down our roads. If you have any of these concerns we need YOU to sign this petition to help protect our neighborhood. We need them to see that our neighborhood is collectively in agreement and we are not backing down! Below is our alternative proposal: 1.Create new traffic patterns to decrease traffic flow away from Ranchester Rd and Hauser Lake. 2.Move the CBU's (mailboxes) out of the pool parking lot and into Phases 2B & 3. 3.No apartments! 4.Tree buffer for those who paid for premium lots.

Chris Matthews asked only rhetorical questions meant to give President Obama a platform to deliberately tear down Senator Elizabeth Warren, who has come out strongly against Fast Track and the TPP, especially the Investor State Dispute Settlement process or ISDS. Matthews never asked the president why hundreds of civic organizations, faith groups and every single Union, have come out strongly against the TPP. Chris Matthews just said they’re all wrong and the president is right, despite the statistics that show NAFTA-style free trade agreements have devastated the economy and wages, as workers must compete with low foreign wages. Chris Matthews could have thrown hardballs at Obama, but he didn’t, instead giving the president a platform to just say, “Trust me.” Chris Matthews never asked hard questions like, “Why is the text of the TPP classified,” or won’t extending patents raise medicine prices under Medicare and Medicaid and to the public? Why won’t you release the text now for the public to see? There are lots of hardballs Chris Matthews could have thrown, but instead, he chose to lob softballs at a time when the Public needs to know what is being negotiated in their name. Perhaps the Chris Matthews Show should be renamed “Softball.” Links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzfxv2XQoPg http://www.c-span.org/video/?323650-1/news-conference-opposition-fast-track-authority http://www.msnbc.com/hardball/watch/president-obama-defends-tpp-deal-431711811768

Veterans in our Nation kill themselves / commit suicide almost one per hour each day, every day. They are Veterans both young and old, male & female. Is there a hidden common denominator at work?? I believe there is, and it's called the **'No-Work-List'**; a list I believe I myself have been placed on, along with countless numbers of former members of our Nations Armed Forces. The goal of the list / plan is to get the Veteran to submit / comply, by way of financial distress, with a system contaminated with deep seated institutional corruption. Being placed on the list causes financial distress for the Veteran and his family, which in many cases drives the Veteran toward economic death followed by mental distress / spiritual death and actual physical death (SUICIDE). I am at the cusp of my research (SCIENCE) project. I am determined to establish the existence of the **'No-Work-List'** and present my findings to American Society , the public, along with data on the correlation between Veteran Suicide and the existence and outcomes of the **'No-Work-List'** .

To inform our elected officials that we do not support PennEast and do not want it to take our land!

Because this is a great way to build healthy self-perception for young girls, and healthy donations for great charities--as Mattell makes a significant profit and gets great PR while enjoying the positive pro-social benefits of a philanthropic effort such as this one.

Home owners are experiencing major and minor damage to homes, property and business. Corporate profits should not come at the expense of state citizens.

My name is Judith and I live in Tuscaloosa, Alabama with my husband and 3 children Hannia, Ashley and Lupita who are American citizens. Alabama has been our home for the last 13 years. We lived through horrific times when thousands of immigrant families fled Alabama and thousands more lived in constant fear because Governor Bentley signed into law HB 56 the harshest anti-immigrant law in the nation. My husband and I could fix our immigration status under the administrative relief on immigration announced by President Obama and for the first time we would be able to live without the constant fear of being deported and torn apart from our 3 girls. However Alabama Governor Robert Bentley and Attorney General Luther Strange have signed onto the Texas lawsuit against the President’s administrative relief, blocking us from applying for this basic protection. Once again, our families are being scapegoated because politicians can’t come up with real solutions to fixing our state’s economic problems. There are around 25 thousand undocumented immigrants like us living in Alabama who could also have a chance to come forward, apply, pay taxes and fees, and eventually obtain temporary permits to work legally, drive safer, and live without the daily fear of being separated from their family. With Congress failing to pass comprehensive immigration reform, President Obama took a first step towards fixing our broken immigration system by offering a temporary protection from deportation to certain parents of American citizens and legal permanent residents and youth who were brought to America when they were children. Alabama already spent taxpayer dollars defending its unconstitutional anti-immigrant law HB 56 and as a result, lost millions in court costs and tax revenues. Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley keeps wasting needed money from our state’s general fund by once again attacking and scapegoating our immigrant communities. Most legal experts agree that this lawsuit is a political stunt and has no legal merit. In contrast enabling immigrants who qualify for administrative relief to register with the government and apply for a temporary work permit could increase Alabama’s tax revenues by $38.6 million, over five years, and lead to a cascade of economic benefits. Tell Gov. Robert Bentley to withdraw Alabama’s name from the Texas vs. United States lawsuit and stop attacking our families.

According to Oklahoma government records, the current rate of earthquakes is 600 times the historical average. The Oklahoma Geological Survey has concluded the phenomenon has been caused by waste water wells associated with drilling for oil and gas. Current legislation protects the industry and endangers the people of Oklahoma, our water, and our land.

This petition is to stop fracking--and end the resulting earthquakes- in Oklahoma. I have experienced one such earthquake and it was no fun. It caused cracks throughout the walls in my home. The earthquakes can be stopped simply by halting fracking, and the legislature should lead the way.

Fracking has already caused serious damage to our public lands, particularly in the areas that serve to buffer America’s most precious national parks and monuments. By the end of 2014, oil and gas companies had leases on over 34 million acres of public land, and over 200 million more acres are currently being targeted for drilling.

 No amount of regulation will protect us or our public lands from the impacts of fracking. Regulated fracking still results in harm to people's health, accidental spills of toxic waste, air pollution, earthquakes, drinking water contamination, habitat destruction and worsening climate change. The only way to protect ourselves and our land from the risks of fracking is to ban it altogether. Preventing fracking on federal lands is essential to safeguarding our drinking water and public and environmental health, as well as iconic places in American history and culture. It is also essential in any serious proposal to address global warming.

 Representative Mark Pocan (WI-2) recently re-introduced his legislation to ban fracking on all public lands — and it remains the strongest piece of federal legislation against fracking to date. Please ask your members of Congress to support and co-sponsor the bill to ban fracking on public lands.
