Last year, 1,000 workers like me were laid off from Angels Stadium when a new company took over the food and beverage operations. We all had to reapply for our jobs with no guarantee of getting them back. The City of Anaheim owns Angels Stadium. The City Council could have passed one simple law to protect us from losing our jobs at venues the City already owns, but they didn't. For years people like us have been underdogs because the rules haven’t been fair. Now we have the chance to make better rules. With Measure L we can elect a City Council that listens to things we care about. Please sign the petition to show your support for Measure L -- Yes on Districts in Anaheim. Do it for our jobs, our union, and our future.

We believe Coach Hoke is the best man for the job!

Residential Permit Parking can not solve Hampden's parking issues. Residential parking forces residents to pay for area parking permits without guaranteeing any actual parking for those permit holders. It simultaneously takes the right to park on publicly owned and maintained streets away from other neighbors, creating discrimination and division within the neighborhood.

Since the DEA got involved in healthcare, I was "fired" from my PCP because they no longer wanted to treat me, pain or no pain. A group of doctors in my town of Grand Junction, CO., had been arrested for abusing the prescribing protocols, and they were a cash-only enterprise. Since that happened, no doctor in town will touch a chronic pain patient with a 10-foot pole. I have not been able to re-establish another PCP for going on 2 years now... to say nothing of getting proper treatment for my health issues. I have been told to "apply" online for new doctors, but I get denied because I have been treated for pain in the past--it doesn't even have to be going on presently. Just recently, I had to go to the hospital twice for a severe kidney infection because my complaint and symptoms were rushed by the emergency staff the first time around and sent home. The chronic pain I have stems from a violent attack I sustained in 2008, where I was hurled down 2nd floor-high metal steps, and then raped and left for dead. I did not ask for this pain that has changed my life forever, nor am I a junkie. I just need a physician that gives a damn and will treat me with dignity and without prejudice. Please sign the petition asking congress to amend the DEA control over who doctors can admit as patients so that ALL can be treated fairly.

We’re a community of women and men sticking up for the idea that in America, you shouldn’t have to choose between being there for family and bringing home a paycheck. If politicians want to talk “family values,” it’s time they start valuing families. That means recognizing that Americans need paid time off for illness or caring for family, affordable childcare, and a living wage. Election Day is right around the corner, so there’s no better time to send a message to candidates that if they want our vote, they need to show they’ll fight for ALL of us. Let's show just how many of us believe that we deserve not just a decent living, but also a decent life. Make your voice heard -- add your name to demand fairer workplace policies so that all of us can make it work.

In the past decade, protections for waters of the United States have been stripped away by the Supreme Court. EPA's rule will restore Clean Water Act protections that have been lost for 55% of Illinois waterways. Clean water is necessary for public health, recreation, business, and for our children's futures.

Millions of Illinoisans rely on Lake Michigan and other Illinois waterways for drinking water, yet the Lake continues to be treated like a personal sewer for the region’s largest polluters. EPA's rule will restore Clean Water Act protections necessary to public health, recreation, and business, that have been lost for 55% of Illinois waterways.

I am starting this petition because I feel that, we the company, DWD Metal Recycle has addressed several issues some community members have voiced, and has been working with the board and community to make this business because a reality and would like to show the nay sayers that there is a true community desire for a business like this to be more local.

Gov.Scott's right-wing efforts to damage public schools is detrimental to the best interests of Florida citizens.

I work as an Investigative Analyst in the Major Economic Crimes Bureau of the New York County District Attorney’s Office. I focus on large white-collar crime cases, and hope to work in this field full-time after I graduate from law school. The recently-released recordings from New York Fed bank examiner Carmen Segarra are very troubling to me, and show an unsettling level of deference to banks by the investigators who are supposed to be regulating them. This is the same kind of behavior that we saw during the financial crisis, and we thought that things had changed since then. We need to make sure we are pushing for stronger oversight of the banks instead of letting Wall Street do what it pleases. Senator Elizabeth Warren has called for Congressional hearings into the culture at the New York Federal Reserve, and we're standing with her to urge Congress to take action. Add your name to join Senator Warren's push for an investigation.
