• TAX ALL RELIGIONS IN THE SAME MANNER THAT OTHER CHARITIES ARE TAXED
    I live in Broward County, FL., where $17 BILLION dollars of real estate value is NOT taxed! In the USA, that amount is estimated to be about $80 BILLION dollars. Churches own recreation centers, stores, apartments, trailer parks, TV and radio stations ALL WITH OUR TAX MONEY. Preachers get a "parsonage exemption" for their living quarters, ALL WITH OUR TAX MONEY. THIS NEEDS TO STOP! Our country needs to get into the 21st century and stop supporting sky gods that don't exist.

  • End Imprisonment of Impoverished Mothers of Truant Students
    Berks County residents, alarmed by the in-prison death a widowed mother of seven, discovered that the Court system's policy is to jail the parents of truant children if they cannot pay the children's truancy fines. Concerned citizens who had been unaware of the policy until the woman's death was reported, and who found that corrective legislation was moribund in Harrisburg, concluded that only the force of organized public opinion could foster a change in policy. For that reason, they decided to draft and promote this Petition.

  • Special Education Adult Students are Left Behind
    I have a Daughter that is Special Needs Adult. For MANY years we have watched cuts being made by our government. There are many parents who go through this. These are the people who truly need your support. People with a disability often never have a voice or never get to vote on issues that would impact them. You are their voices. It is time to make a stand. Be that voice. Parent

  • TAKE ACTION TO PRESERVE TEAMSTER HEALTH CARE
    The State’s proposal radically threatens the health care benefits that Teamster families depend on. As Correctional Workers, we are subject to the state's budget, and the state continues to show that they don't respect us enough to provide decent wages in comparison to our local counterparts. We seemingly have to fight for mere COLA increases, which we don't receive regularly.

  • Tell Congress: Overturn Citizens United and McCutcheon
    Recent decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court, in Citizens United and McCutcheon, have unleashed a flood of unregulated money into our elections. These decisions are having a corrosive effect on our democracy, allowing special interests to drown out the voices of regular citizens. That’s why I’m supporting an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to overturn these disastrous decisions, and allow us to restore transparency and reasonable limits to campaign contributions and spending. The American people deserve an election system that is fair, transparent, and accountable. Sign the petition: add your name to my call for a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and McCutcheon. Thank you for standing with me in this call to action!

  • ASL Ice Bucket Challenge- Steven Moffat
    Steven Moffat killed off Amy, River, and Rory. Not to mention he created those blasted Weeping Angels that haunt me at night. I believe he deserves to get drenched in ice cold water. Plus it would be hilarious to watch.

  • Saving Neverland
    To keep Michael Jackson's Neverland Valley Ranch from being sold. His fans would love to be able to visit, just like Graceland in Tennessee; and just like Graceland, Neverland could bring in a lot of revenue for the State of California, which we know is needed. This would bring well needed taxes to our state plus jobs, which are needed. It also would bring visitors from all over the world, who will need hotels, food and shopping, which will bring in more income to the State of California.

  • Mayor Nutter: Throw the Taney Dragons a Championship Parade
    This summer, a team of kids has shown what great things can be accomplished with heart and hard work. When the Taney Dragons come home from the Little League World Series, Philadelphia should give them the championship parade they deserve. It doesn't have to be complicated or expensive, but these kids, their parents, and their coaches have done our city proud, going further in this championship than any Philadelphia team ever has. The Taney Dragons have broken records: the first Philadelphia team to win a state Little League championship, and the first to become regional Mid-Atlantic champions. They're exciting national and international baseball fans with their incredible talent and teamwork, inspiring a new generation of Philly kids to believe they can accomplish great things, and reminding us all of Philly's fighting spirit. They feature a groundbreaking female pitcher who is one of the best of any gender. They are racially diverse, and many of them attend Philly's public schools. As their biggest fans - their parents - like to say, "They're tough and gritty, those kids from the city!" We know the Taney Dragons didn't make it all the way, but they're already true champions, and Philly should throw them a championship celebration.
