Tax the Rich Like FDR did to bring us out of the Great DepressionWe have always had a progressive tax system, and we need to include the rich and super rich into our tax code. It's not fair to the 99% to foot the bills of the country, when the rich and super rich have over 40% of all the money.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Hodgkinson

National Voter ID CardsThis petition is about restoring a fair playing field in our voting system by providing a national ID card that is accepted by all 50 states. We are all disadvantaged when one is disadvantaged. Let's stop talking, and start getting this done. We should have started this immediately after the 2012 election. Let's make sure not one American citizen is disadvantaged ever again where voting rights are concerned.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laura Kiselevach

Voter Identification CardsI am starting this petition because I firmly believe that our right to vote is being severely impaired by the GOP. Democrats do nothing but complain about what the GOP is NOT doing, while the GOP is busy making it harder for ALL citizens to vote. Something like this should have been proposed immediately after the 2012 election, but democrats, yet again, did nothing but talk. I am personally affected by this - we all are. Let's get it together. Stop the talk, and walk the walk!1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laura Kiselevach

Illinois Legislators: Pass Same Day Voter RegistrationSame Day Registration is available on Election Day in 11 other states and in the District of Columbia. States that offer Same Day Registration consistently lead the nation in voter turnout. Illinois would be the second largest and first windiest state to pass Same Day Registration (SDR). Passing SDR would increase voter turnout by 8-12% allowing tons of eager new voters to get out and vote for the first time! Now that's a healthy democracy. The legislative session ends May 31st and time is running out. Sign the petition TODAY so that we can show our elected representatives that while other states are restricting voting rights, Illinois should be expanding them! Influential leaders such as Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky, Representative Barbara Flynn Currie, Cook County Clerk David Orr, and Bootsy Collins have already come out in support of this measure. They know that we can’t wait around any longer to have a true and vibrant democracy.707 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Carolyn Mehta

Ending the violence/discrimination and un-just laws against Black People.I am starting this petition because Black People as a whole is not JUSTLY represented in the court of law within the United States of America. Time after time, we have repeatedly seen those Racist Terrorist People go free using the “Stand your Ground Laws.” Time after time, when a Black Person is murdered by a Racist Terrorist Person, the dead must prove that it was a Racist Terrorist Act, not excluding their innocence. We saw this happen in many cases, not excluding Trayvon Martin murder case, the White Male who murdered a Black Teenager because his music was too loud and he is also using the, “Stand your Ground Laws,” the Black Teenager who was found dead in the gym whereby he was gutted out, another Black Young Female upcoming third-year Law Student found gutted out, the Black Young Lady who was in a car accident who suspiciously left her vehicle and ended up on a Racist Terrorist Person Porch murdered, another young Black Male who had a similar incident that happened, another Black Female who was serving in the arm forces murdered and her body was ruled as an suicide, and the list goes on and on and on. You may check with NEWSONE for many, many incidents by which innocent Black People are being found murdered. Very seldom one will hear anything about a Black Person who was found murdered, not excluding, their bodies being gutted out. For more details, check with NEWSONE. Thank you. PLEASE sign this petition to end violence, and discrimination against Black People.28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Annie Mae Campbell

Signatures of registered voters seeking the recall of Senator Harry ReidSenator Reid has neglected the State of Nevada's interests and led an ineffective, do-nothing Senate. His statements and votes are contrary to the people of Nevada's wishes and he must be removed from office before doing more harm as one of our elected Senators.518 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Peter David Steelsmith

Washington: Tell the EPA to ban bee-killing pesticidesEurope has already fought back against powerful chemical companies and took a big step to protect bees by putting into effect a ban of the top bee-killing “neonic” pesticides. Now it’s our turn! Join Friends of the Earth and our allies in demanding that the EPA take immediate action to protect bees! Bees are critical in producing the majority of our food crops and the evidence is mounting that Bayer and Syngenta’s pesticides are a key contributor to mass bee die-offs. However, the EPA continues to ignore scientists -- even those employed by the EPA -- and has delayed action until 2018. But the bees can’t wait -- and neither can we! U.S. beekeepers have been consistently losing 40-100 percent of their hives. This winter, beekeepers are likely facing yet another season of historic bee die offs. We can’t let the EPA wait another five years to address this crisis. Please take action today and tell the EPA to ban bee-killing pesticides.7,842 of 8,000 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker
