  • Fund Rhode Island's Historic Tax Credits
    Preserve Rhode Island is the statewide advocate for Rhode Island's historic places. We champion public policy that ensures a future for historic buildings and will energize our state's economy. Currently, 32 projects have been approved for Historic Tax Credits and are either under contract or have contracts pending. These projects will pump more than $215 million into Rhode Island's economy. This leaves 27 additional projects on a wait list to nowhere, as the funding does not exist.

  • Limit Congress and Senate terms to 8 years
    Its time for a change. We are tired of people with old ideology still representing the people in the House of Representatives and Senate. They are not in turn with the times. It’s time to get fresh people with new ideas. My petition is that we need to constitutionally change their term limit. These older people don't represent the young up-coming people.

  • Please Accept Medicaid Expansion
    Our organization works with families who are under stress and living in poverty. We strive to help them become the best parents they can be so the next generation can be contributing members of society. Unfortunately, positive parenting is difficult to embrace when basic needs aren't being met, many of which are mental health needs and/or untreated chronic physical illness. If these parents do receive treatment, it plunges them into inescapable debt, which perpetuates poverty and stress. Help has been offered as part of the Affordable Care Act. All we have to do is accept it.

  • Keep our River of Words!
    Our 2009 Community Master Plan recommends public art as a tool for neighborhood improvement. "River of Words" has been embraced by our community and has brought us favorable international press. In addition to being public art, River of Words is speech protected by the First Amendment. Those of us in the Mexican War Streets Historic District wish to keep our words permanently affixed to our homes. The HRC should allow our Words to remain without further hearings until they publish agreed-upon guidelines and procedures on public art.

  • Florida State Legislature: Pass ONLINE Voter Registration Immediately
    Democracy means that people vote and participate. Registration can be easily facilitated by providing online registration to Floridians. When I received my driver's license I was able to register to vote. Online registration is equally simple and will increase voter participation.

Please insist that Mr. Helmick exercise his right to appeal the approval of the applications to the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission.

  • Save Higher Education in Louisiana
    The citizens of Louisiana are tired of the cuts to higher education funding. Governor Bobby Jindal recently proposed a $608 million reduction in higher education funding in Louisiana. That amounts to roughly 80 percent of the operating budget of the University of Louisiana System. These cuts to higher education funding in Louisiana are a shameful attempt to temporarily the larger budget problems in Louisiana. The middle class will have to take up the slack so Jindal can avoid tax cuts and major budget overhauls while he attempts a presidential bid. Legislators: Do not stand by and let higher education be set back a generation! That’s what we are looking at here. It is not up to the governor; it is up to you! Step up for a change. Commit to RESTORING funds to higher ed; NOT taking more from them and setting them back for another twenty years. All of you out there that feel this way: Send this to your representative and senator, call your representative and senator, pledge to vote them out if they continue to significantly harm higher education.

  • No Guns in Our Parks
    From the years of (1981 -2010) there have been 112,375 infants, children, and teens killed by firearms. It was predicted in a recent article that this number would skyrocket dramatically sometime within this year of 2015, if stricter gun control laws don't get created and persist. Recently a new bill has been proposed to allow firearms to be carried in Tennessee parks and even on playgrounds where there will be nothing but innocent lives hanging in the balance. It has to stop, stand with me and millions of others to innovate the future and get stricter gun control laws made now.

  • Stop cuts to Louisiana higher education
    I am a student at Louisiana State University Eunice, and I see firsthand the struggles of all college students around the state. Tuition will go up and some majors are being dropped. Everyone deserves a chance at a college degree. With these proposed cuts, Gov. Jindal is basically saying that he does not care about colleges in Louisiana. Show him that we care. Sign this petition and show your support for higher education in Louisiana.

  • Stony Brook University: Release Hercules and Leo
    Scientific research has shown that primates such as chimpanzees possess a wide array of traits that would seem to suggest that they are rational, autonomous beings capable of feeling emotional and physical pain and being unhappy with their environment. Chimpanzees such as Hercules and Leo should not be kept caged up in inhumane research facilities that would put them in distressing emotional and physical states.

  • RI taxpayers against PawSox new stadium
    The Billionaire owners of the PawSox want to move from McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket less than a mile down the road at the Apex site on the backs of Rhode Island taxpayers. The owners claim it will bring in millions of revenue a year. We already have an awesome and beloved stadium at McCoy. If they can bring in millions in revenue at Apex in Pawtucket, why can't they do it at McCoy in Pawtucket? It won't create jobs because these jobs are already in our state and city, at the present stadium. Let the governor and legislature know that Rhode Islanders do not want this new stadium! Just say no!
