Petition to Governor Christie to call for a MORATORIUM on the Implementation of the One Newark Pu...Superintendent of Newark Public Schools has created a large scale plan without meaningful and credible engagement of the Newark community. Cami Anderson has lost the support of Newark residents including parents, students, the Newark Municipal Council, the Board of Education, Newark's mayor-elect, community organizations and 77 concerned Ministers and clergy. Poor planning, scandalous fiscal mis-management ($15,000-$60,000 or 80% salary increases to Cami's inner circle) and the destruction of community schools, demand that the One Newark Plan be halted.69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Annette Alston

Keep swan river fishing access open to public.Just recently the swan river fishing access popular to many floaters was closed due to complaints from nearby residents about parking, traffic, garbage, noise, etc. the lake county commissioner has closed it down and posted no trespassing signs. Although I do sympathize with the residents, this is a public spot. Instead of trying to sweep the problem under the rug, I'm asking the commissioner to address the problem head on and put in much needed additional parking. There is another petition going around to keep it closed. Last count they had 58 signatures. They are going for 100. My goal is 1000. My guess is this number will be reached very fast. What are you? A snowbird or a local. Please forward this to anyone you know that has enjoyed the luxury of this amazing place!10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Josh

United Airlines Owes ReimbursementUnited forced passengers to remain on the tarmac for hours, unable to use the plane's clogged restrooms and with no food left, simply because they still hoped to make their scheduled stop in Denver. When passengers finally disembarked in Pueblo, United abandoned them without explanation. The Pueblo Police and Colorado State University were heroes who took up this task, providing food, transportation and lodging, and should be reimbursed.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kathleen Cook

Cease all military involvement in IraqWe never should have interfered in Iraq years ago. I believe the 3 tribes in Iraq should determine their own destiny. Too many Americans have already died there.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Judith Carmody

Get money out of politics!It is time to restore our representative democracy. Today 87% of Americans are deeply troubled by the corrupting influence of money in politics. Our elected officials no longer represent the people who vote for them, they represent their donors. We need to get money out of politics, and the biggest step is overturning the 'Citizens United' supreme court case and banning corporations from contributing to elections. To do that, we need our state legislature to call for a constitutional convention. Vermont has already called for a convention, and California isn't far behind. Connecticut should join them. Tell your elected officials you want a constitutional convention to get money out of our politics.92 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Taylor Leake

Protect the Badger-Two MedicineThe Badger-Two Medicine is important to Montanans, locally and throughout the region, as a place to sustain cultural traditions, hunt, fish, hike and admire. Pristine and ancient, home to original flora and fauna, the Badger-Two Medicine is a treasure. There have been tremendous accomplishments achieved in the campaign to protect this landscape. But it is still vulnerable. Oil and gas developers, motorcycles and ATVs all threaten to scar “The Badger” permanently. By signing this petition, you are supporting the protection of the Badger-Two Medicine from extractive, industrial and motorized threats. As the community of caring people willing to stand together grows, so does the promise of protection for this culturally - and ecologically - irreplaceable wild land.76 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Leanne Falcon

Join Barbara Lee & Scott Rigell, Stop Rush to Iraq WarSome press reports have suggested that the U.S. could begin airstrikes in Iraq at any time. Our best opportunity to stop this is to press President Obama to come to Congress for authorization, as required by the U.S. Constitution and the War Powers Resolution, before using military force. Pressing the President to come to Congress was essential to stopping the U.S. from going to war in Syria last year. California Democrat Barbara Lee and Virginia Republican Scott Rigell have initiated a bipartisan letter to President Obama, urging him to respect the Constitutional requirement to come to Congress for authorization before using military force. Urge your Representative to join the Lee-Rigell letter by signing our petition. The petition will be automatically delivered to your Representative when you sign.11,605 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Robert Naiman

Tell NBC: Stop Anti-Choice CensorshipNBC has decided that "abortion" is a dirty word. Sources report that NBC is refusing to run ads for the critically acclaimed movie Obvious Child unless they edit out any mention of the word "abortion," even though that's what the entire movie is about—a woman's completely normal experience with abortion. Since when did "abortion" become one of the words you can't say in an ad? Especially when it seems like you can't make it through 30 minutes of prime time without seeing an ad for Viagra warning about erections lasting longer than four hours. This is outrageous—that's why we started a petition to tell NBC: "Abortion is not a dirty word. Stop censoring ads for the movie Obvious Child." Can you sign the petition and share it with your friends?8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by NARAL Pro-Choice America
