Stop NC voter suppression by Americans For ProsperityDemocracy is on the ropes in my state of North Carolina. An onslaught of political spending by out of state conservative organizations from the NRA to Karl Rove and the Koch Brothers has clogged the airwaves with right wing propaganda. But Americans for Prosperity, with their deep ties to the billionaire Koch Brothers, has doubled down on subverting democracy with a mailing that can and will confuse and mislead voters. Governor McCrory must take action to protect North Carolinians now!369 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Stephen L Blake

Tell AFP to Get Out of Our Elections!A few days ago, the Koch money-backed advocacy group, Americans For Prosperity (AFP) mailed out incorrect voter registration information to hundreds of citizens in North Carolina - and at least one cat. That's right, a cat. The group labeled these mailings as "official application forms" in an attempt to trick citizens into thinking they were registering to vote in the upcoming election. Ridiculous attempts like this to rig elections must stop now! To make the matter worse, no one seems to know where AFP got the list of people this mailing went to, and a citizen has even reported the "form" he received was addressed to his cat. This has to be the final straw for all Americans, not just NC voters. This is the United States of America - not the United States of David and Charles Koch. If action isn't taken on this now, we are letting the Koch brothers pick and choose who they want to sit in our legislatures and, serve as our judges. Join me in demanding that Americans For Prosperity explain to NC voters why they are illegally and unethically tampering with our democracy!2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Blake Mizelle

AOL: If you're in ALEC, you've got failThis week Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Yahoo have joined countless other organizations and individuals are fleeing ALEC's crooked political agenda. However, AOL has refused to join them. Sign our petition and tell AOL to take a stand against ALEC's dirty politicians and backroom deals. We need to tell AOL that, like dial-up internet users in an age of broadband, continuing their ALEC membership means they'll only fall further behind.1,935 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Marisol Garcia

Mayor Kay: Allow Weymouth Youth Football & Cheer use of the baseball field for warm-upsWe, the families of Weymouth Youth Football and Cheerleading request permission to use the baseball field adjacent to the WHS turf field for game day warm-ups. To date, Mr. Slattery, a town employee, has denied all requests to permit our children a safe and easily accessible warm up space for their games. We hereby request that Mayor Kay use her authority to override the decision of Mr. Slattery and put the safety of our children before town politics.376 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Katie Garland

Open the DMV, or no voter ID!This change in WI law comes only weeks before an important election. It is projected that up to 300,000 legally eligible WI voters will not be able to vote in November because they don't have or won't be able to obtain the required ID in time. I work at the polls and have seen firsthand how difficult it can be for legitimately entitled people to provide the documentation necessary to register even before this new requirement.948 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Holly Davis

Dock Pay and Benefits of CongressEvery American should be given a vote on this petition. Entire Congress takes too much time off and still receives pay and benefits. All members should have pay and benefits docked when not present in session a minimum of 24 hours each week and be present for all speeches. Entire Congress must be present in their DC office at least 8 hours a week. Congress should travel economy class, not business class or first class unless they pay the difference in price. Congress should not be paid for campaigning. .68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda E. Dean
