• Audio and Video Surveillance for Taxi Cabs
    My petition would help other victims of sexual abuse in a taxi cab to get justice quicker. It might even prevent the abuse from happening. I am personally affected by this issue. I was sexually assaulted by a cab driver. If there was audio and video surveillance in the cab it would have provided the police with evidence that the driver did threaten my well being.

  • LET'S GET JUSTICE FOR AN INNOCENT MAN!
    My brother Ceeno is a first-time offender who was given 27 years for a crime he didn't commit at 19 years old. He was given more time than a murderer just for standing up for his constitutional rights and has already served 11. Both my brother's witness and the plaintiff's own key witness testified that Ceeno was not a part of this robbery, but the facts didn't matter in a tainted unfair trial. The judicial system has been corrupt for many years and the laws need to be changed to end mass incarceration.

  • Save the JFSAP MFLC program!
    The JFSAP MFLC program has played a pivotal role in providing outreach counseling for members of the Guard and Reserves to help them cope with the impact of multiple deployments. This essential program is ending soon, leaving these warriors and their families with little or no support. The effects of war are NOT time-limited; save this important resource now!

  • Say NO to Ted Nugent at the Clark County Fair 2014
    I have attended the Clark County Fair since the 1970s and cannot remember a time when such a personality was booked for entertainment. Clark County does not need to be open for business to the sort of well-known negative rhetoric that is espoused by this character. Do not support this wrong decision.

    There's an estimated $300 billion more going from us to corporations over the next decade, and it's not countered by a single raised rate or closed Big Business loophole.

  • SEC: Don't Let Corporations Hide Their Political Spending!
    We've seen the level to which corporations will sink to rig elections and skew issues like climate change and health care. Campaign finance reform is where we'll see real change.

  • Pornography opt-in/opt-out
    Through studying the trends of young relationships I have found the issue of objectification of women is altering the way relationships are developing today. I believe that pornography teaches young adults to objectify women. When it is accessed at a very early age, and becomes a teenager's first exposure to sex, their view of sex and relationships can become horribly skewed. I don't want to see young adults begin treating women as an object because of pornography, when Internet providers have the ability to restrict this.
