Accept the federal funds to expand Medicaid in Tennessee."My son and I are hardworking Tennesseans as well, and we are committed entrepreneurs with an upstart business. We simply cannot afford healthcare at the moment. Just recently I got a piece of sawdust in my eye, and "man" it was in there deep. I was in extreme discomfort, but I knew an emergency room visit of $1000.00 was out of the question. So I had to lay in the floor while my son dug out the wood splinters. I am a grown man with a high tolerance for pain, but please consider for a minute that not everyone has helping family members in times of need and ask yourself what is the right thing to do.

Stop Gov. Christie's Plan to Privatize NJ Turnpike Toll OperationsDespite the fact that New Jersey has one of the highest unemployment rates in the country, the NJTA is considering a privatization plan that could cost hundreds of New Jersey residents and tax payers their jobs. This plan would result in a lower quality of life for toll operators while having no proven benefit for New Jersey motorists. New Jersey's tolls bring in more than $1.6 Billion annually. The best case scenario has privatization saving between $5 and $6 million a year. This plan would have a slight benefit for New Jerseyans at the expense of hundreds of working families.253 of 300 SignaturesCreated by John Connelly

Rep. Gowdy, Support Voting RightsLate last week, Representatives Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI) and John Conyers (D-MI) and Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) introduced new legislation—the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014—that would strengthen the Voting Rights Act. This bill isn't perfect but is the best vehicle we have for restoring the rights struck down by the Supreme Court last year. We urge you to support it and prove you are interested in promoting voting by all eligible voters rather than trying to suppress voting as many believe.583 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Jim Childress

Protect Voting RightsI am starting this petition because I have become increasingly alarmed by voter registration laws that make it increasingly difficult for some citizens of our country, in particular minorities and the elderly, to vote. Charges of voter fraud used to justify these laws consistently have been shown to be untrue. In a democracy, the basic right of all citizens to vote without undue burdens being placed in their way should be protected by all, not challenged in unseemly and cynical ways.354 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Jeffrey Nelson

Remove all fluoride from Utah's waterTo free Utah citizens from being poisoned against their will. Or from further receiving the lie that it's for the benefit of our teeth, when the other side effects are so much worse it doesn't make it worth it.

Voting Rights Act AmendmentThe best way to be successful is to get as much visible support as possible early on. Already, there are nine co-sponsors of this bill—four Republicans and five Democrats. We need ALL OF OUR SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES onboard to protect the voting rights of ALL AMERICANS, particularly those who have historically been disenfranchised...Let's not ever forget the price paid by our ancestors to have our full rights as citizens.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by c.sade turnipseed

Support the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014Last year, the Supreme Court gutted the landmark Voting Rights Act of 1965. Since then, Republicans across the country have raced to implement new restrictive laws that would do exactly what the Voting Rights Act was meant to protect. But now, there's a chance to stop that.650 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Erica Edgington

Rep. Hurt“The Voting Rights Act is one of the most important pieces of civil rights legislation Congress has ever passed. Last year's Supreme Court decision weakened critical provisions of it. Right now, Congress can restore those protections by passing this important bill. Rep. Hurt should support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill. It's only just.”1,046 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Jack White,Jr
