The Florida Center for Investigative Reporting recently reported that employees and volunteers at the Florida Department of Environmental Protection have been directed not to use the words "climate change," "global warming," or “sea level rise.” This news has drawn public outrage across the country. Instead of denying the urgency of climate change, Governor Scott should be leading the charge in renewable energy sources like solar. Please ask the Governor to acknowledge human-caused climate change and work to stop it!

As a female student at Lake Shore high school, I have many friends that have no knowledge of self defense and may get very hurt if they were attacked. Self defense is an important lesson that would make students much less vulnerable. Especially in today's society, college can be dangerous for some young adults with no street knowledge.

We urge you to do more to prevent "Religious Freedom" legislation from passing in Georgia. These harmful bills open the door to discrimination against Georgians, making Georgia unsafe for LGBTQ residents, as well as religious minorities and people of color. Last year, under your lead, Delta Airlines was instrumental in stopping these bills from becoming the law of the land in Georgia. As the state's largest private employer, Delta Airlines has a responsibility to it's employees, customers, and the residents of Georgia to do everything in their power to object to these bills. In the past, your company has shown a commitment to civil rights in the South, by investing over $1 million in the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, and sponsoring the 50th anniversary of the March on Selma taking place this weekend. While we value this commitment, we must do more to ensure that the civil rights of ALL Georgians remain intact. Please take a stand against these bills, and use your influence to urge other business leaders to do the same.

I am starting this petition because I believe that if you are old enough to join the military, and old enough to be considered a legal adult then you should be able to drink legally.

I believe if you are working hard in a school sport everyday then there's no reason to have to be involved in gym class. The exercise during the practice or game of the sport should count towards the physical activity of the required amount of gym class.

A select faction of the Student Senate thinks Desmond's leadership style violates his oath of office. This petition tells the Senate not only that You believe Desmond works for you, as your elected President, but that calling for effectiveness of the Student Senate isn't cause for impeachment. Desmond wrote this in his open opt-ed piece to the Eastern Echo: On January 27th, 2015 I addressed the Student Senate during Presidential Forum. In the forum, I requested that the Student Senate focus more on student body issues. I stated that the Senate needed to stop focusing on internal conflict, and focus on improving the student experience for the student body. This is reflected in the Senate-approved minutes from this meeting, which can be found online at emich.edu/studentgov.

Koch fiend Cory sleazed his way into office and he has started a rampage of bowing down to the Kochs, the NRA, Netanyahu and everything else that is disgusting and rightwing and wrong. Every moment he is in office is a moment when America IS IN DANGER.

Nottoway County BOS has refused to put a resolution in support of Industrial Hemp on its agenda. America is the only industrialized nation on Earth that does not produce Industrial Hemp. This is NOT what our Founding Fathers intended in 1619.

Despite the clear danger our communities face from storms, flooding, and rising sea level caused by climate change, recent reports reveal that many government officials in Florida are no longer allowed to say the term "climate change." This misguided attempt to politically censor the very people in charge of making policies that will reduce carbon pollution and help our communities adapt to our changing climate isn't just outrageous—it's dangerous.

There are serious consequences of the letter 47 Republican senators sent to the government of Iran: “This kind of letter is unprecedented and undiplomatic. In truth, it told us that we cannot trust the United States. —March 10, 2015 in a meeting with top clerics It is a matter of national security to mitigate the harm that has been done and assure Iran that the US can be trusted.

I'd like to know how we were misled into two unnecessary wars. Everyone in America was affected by this issue.
