I vow to never eat at Burger King againWe taxpayers support Burger King with roads, schooling for their employees, electricity and police and fire department protection among other benefits. If they want to be a Canadian company then they should call themselves Tim Horton here and sell doughnuts.941 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Deirdre Mack

Burger King: Don't Abandon America to Dodge TaxesIn a move that would allow it to move its headquarters out of the country, Burger King is considering a plan to buy a Canadian coffee chain, Tim Hortons. (1) If Burger King does indeed move their headquarters, it will mean they will be taxed at a much lower rate than American-based companies in a scheme that is referred to as a corporate "inversion." The crazy thing is, they don't actually have to move their CEO or any of their central offices, they can just claim on paper to be headquartered in Canada. (2) The news comes after dozens of companies have pursued similar schemes which will cost us billions in lost taxes. We can't let big corporations continue to dodge taxes -- everyone should play by the same rules. How can we invest in education or job growth if large, profitable companies are scheming to avoid paying their fair share? I'm confident that if enough of us stand up we can stop these inversions. Earlier this month, Walgreens backed off a plan to move their headquarters overseas after public outcry. But it won't happen unless we speak out, together. LEARN MORE: 1.

UNITE the PEACE MOVEMENT and the ENVIRONMENT MOVEMENTBILL McKIBBEN, founder of 350.org, tweeted, “To deal with climate change, we have to mobilize like its World War III.” It is my honor to present a formula for mobilizing. Economist Jeffrey Sachs wrote “As citizens of the world, our job now is to demand peace through diplomacy, and through global, regional, and national initiatives to address the scourges of poverty, disease, and environmental degradation.” http://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/jeffrey-d-sachs-on-why-global-instability-today-does-not-have-to-end-as-badly-as-it-did-in-1914 WE can demand diplomacy by promoting a GMofNV. The plans are ready! We must UNITE now for many reasons but especially because violence is escalating everywhere. There is still time to enact this strategy if specific elements are in place within the next three weeks. The obstacles to create change are enormous – I call a Behemoth. Therefore something special and different is needed – a David vs. Goliath! Please see two letters sent to BILL McKIBBEN . http://gsofnv.org/LettertoBillMcKibben5-20-14.html http://gsofnv.org/LettertoBillMcKibben8-22-14.html Please sign this petition "before" we are desperate. We must be proactive! The DOOR is OPEN! We must go through it. Thank you.

REMOVE or RESIGN: Attorney Bob McCulloch MUST GO! #Ferguson, #JusticeForMikeBrownSince 11 August 2014 the People of Ferguson Township, MO. have been trying to get Prosecuting Attorney Robert P. McCulloch to recuse himself, voluntarily, from the adjudication of the Michael Brown, Jr. Case. (Questions of impropriety abound when it comes to the record of P.A. McCulloch.) To date, though, Attorney McCullouch has refused. To that end we, the undersigned of this petition, call upon Missouri Governor Jay Nixon to remove Attorney McCullouch from the case OR resign, himself, immediately from office for dereliction of duty by wilfully ignoring the request/will of the People of Ferguson Township and St. Louis County, MO.730 of 800 SignaturesCreated by David Davidson

Apple to add Farsi/Persian to iphone KeyboardPlease help stop corporate discrimination against Farsi, Persian, and Iranian-Americans. There are close to 2 million Iranian-Americans in the United States with strong economic status ranging from major business owners, surgeons, dentists, professors, entertainers, and many serving in local governments. Their financial status enables them to support all Apple products. It is strange that the Apple keyboard amongst many languages offers Czech, Croatian, Estonian, Hawaiian, Latvian, Macedonian, Slovak, Tamil, and Tibetan, but intentionally refuses Farsi or Persian. This is either a political statement or an act of prejudice against over 100 million Farsi speaking people in the world and two million Persian-Americans. As Persian-Americans we would like to receive acknowledgment of our language, Farsi/Persian, and our heritage country, Iran, on the Apple keyboard list of languages and countries. We ask CEO Cook to help implement this request in appreciation for the support we have provided to Apple.255 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Dr. K. Nourishad

Assemblymember Bocanegra: Our Democracy depends on your voteCalifornia can turn the tide on unlimited secret money in elections by passing the California DISCLOSE Act, a measure that will reveal the shadowy interests that who try to buy elections with deceptive ads. The California DISCLOSE Act (SB 52) would bring true transparency, requiring ballot measure ads to clearly show their actual three top funders on the ads themselves – so Californians know who’s trying to buy their vote. The bill is close to passing, but now some of the biggest interests in Sacramento are trying to kill it. Assemblymember Bocanegra will be a key vote. Sign and share our petition asking him to vote Yes now.56 of 100 SignaturesCreated by California Clean Money Campaign
