Prevent Marineland Ontario From Abusing Their Wildlife!I am starting this petition because animal abuse is still a big problem all over the world, and you can't begin to end this by walking house to house and finding animal abuse behind closed doors. I decided to start with Marineland because it has already been documented that there is animal abuse taking place there. Even 8 former employees came forward and admitted this. If no attention is paid to this, more and more animals that should be free in the wild will be confined in a place that doesn't even treat them properly.42 of 100 SignaturesCreated by sara eagen

Driving AgeI believe the driving age should be increased to age 18 because of a personal life experience. I was 17 at the time and was careless and acted out. I always drove fast, loving the speed. I guess to say I had a need for speed and couldn't help myself. Because I was young and because of being an inexperienced driver I totaled my car and managed to overcome serious damage to myself. I had 11 broken ribs, 14 fractures in my pelvis, a broken shoulder, internal bleeding, and internal damage. Let's prevent this from happening to other kids and raise the driving age.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cheyenne Augustine

Lower the Legal Drinking Age to 18At age 18, you are eligible to join the armed forces and die for your country. If you are seen as responsible enough to die fighting for your country, you should also been seen as responsible enough to consume alcohol.68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Emilee Barone

Removal of Confederate Flag on I-95 Spotsy/F'burgThe Confederate flag is offensive and demeaning to many African Americans, as a Nazi flag would be offensive to Jewish people. The United States of America represents one flag with stars and strips, which unites its people. A Confederate flag suggests division and seperatism and brings to mind the old "Jim Crow" laws of "white supremacy." This flag should be removed.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by G.Marie Brown

WWP Curriculum Committee: Approve the Grover 8th Grade German Trip to DCFor the past 10 years, 8th Grade German students at Grover have gone on an overnight trip to Washington, DC. A culminating event for our kids after studying German for three years, the trip is educational and tied directly into the curriculum. I want my child to benefit from this valuable experience: Allow the 8th Grade German trip.123 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Laura Crozier

Coastal safetyI am starting this petition because we've all known people who have died on the water, and thus know the danger. The people who have been saved by the vigilance of those folks on the helicopter are many. We need the eyes, ears, and knowledge these saviors in the sky posses to keep tragedies down.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Sharpless

To Make Oursourcing in the US IllegalI am an employee of an airline that fired 600 of their career employees at all of their stations with the exception of their hub. This seems to be the future at many American companies where the only concern is the bottom line with no honor or commitment to their employees and to the future well being of our country. This will result in the disappearance of the middle class and the income that has made our country prosperous.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jeff Black

Require property owners to allow tenants to dry their clothes outside on their balconies and patios!Many owners of apartment complexes forbid tenants to hang their clothes outside to dry because they think "it doesn't look nice". But our concern as a community should be "how can I cut down my energy use to save the planet?" Hanging clothes outside to dry is economical and uses no energy. Everyone should be able to use the sun and the wind to dry their clothes if they choose. It's time to get rid of this archaic lease term!46 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Julie Eldridge

Require bicycle parking in multi-family dwelling unitsThis issue affects me and my neighbors where we live, adjacent to the regional Bay Trail in bicycle-friendly Alameda, California. It is just wrong that apartment owners provide car parking spaces to their tenants but no place to secure their bicycles! A decree by Governor Brown would require all cities in California to put the bicycle parking provision in their zoning ordinances, who in turn would require all multi-family housing owners to provide a secure bike shed or bike lockers on the property AND allow bicycles to be stored on patios, decks and balconies.40 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Julie Eldridge
