Roundy's Corporation: Label GMOsWe’re launching a campaign to show grocery chains, like Roundy's Corporation, that their customers want GMO labeling, and persuade them to follow the lead of other grocery stores like Whole Foods. We have a right to know what’s in the food we buy, so we can make healthy, responsible, and informed choices about what we’re eating. Sign this petition to Roundy's CEO Bob Mariano and ask him as a customer to label GMOs in store-brand products.2,364 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Bruce Speight

Rep. Swalwell: Support Voting RightsThis legislation represents a significant improvement over the status quo, which has seen states rush to implement blatantly discriminatory voting restrictions after being freed from federal oversight. The legislation gives the federal government and voting rights advocates new tools to combat voting discrimination. Urge Rep. Swalwell to support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Woods

It is called the "Heart Stick" method and the "gas Chamber" both of which are an excruciatingly way for anyone to have to suffer. Please help stop these two horrendous methods .433 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Moore

Protect Voters' RightsI believe in liberty and justice for all. “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. Price should support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill.”1,325 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Patricia Reid

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis: Break up with T-Mobile!Macklemore & Ryan Lewis have made headlines for standing up against racism and homophobia. Now, they can continue to fight for justice by supporting workers who are fighting for their rights on the job. T-Mobile, which is sponsoring a Macklemore & Ryan Lewis concert on January 23rd, has been using “brutal psychological terror” on its workers -- like verbal abuse, threats, and, in one workplace, forcing workers to wear dunce caps and sit in a corner if they don’t meet their quotas. Many workers have reported suffering from migraines, stroke symptoms, high-blood pressure, anxiety and depression because of the abuse. It’s gotten so bad that in one town that doctors describe people as having “T-Mobile disease.” And when workers try to change their workplace environment, they’ve been fired, disciplined, and interrogated in basements and systematically told to not collectively voice their concerns. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis have used their celebrity status to raise the conversation about important injustices. They can do it again and send a message to T-Mobile that they won’t work with a company that treats its workers this badly.4,068 of 5,000 SignaturesCreated by DJ Gering

Rep. Ron Kind -- Repair the Voting Rights Act!This is not (yet) a post-racial society, and ALL citizens deserve to have their voting rights protected. The slice&dice in the 2013 renewal of the Voting Rights Act was a travesty of Congressional responsibility and a tragedy for American democracy. The 2014 Amendment WILL repair the Voting Rights Act! Wisconsin is a state with a long history of progressive legislation that protected the rights of ALL its citizens -- please stand up and act like a Wisconsinite: Support the REPAIR AMENDMENT!441 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Annie Allen-Wyman
