Stop overcrowding our elementary schoolsIf sixth grade is added to the elementary schools, the schools would be right back into the same situation we just corrected -- Ocean Bay Middle overcrowding issues would be solved, but it would be at the expense of three elementary schools which will be over capacity again. We need a better solution. Please sign, COMMENT and share if you agree.171 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Andrea

Governor Christie: It's time to resignMembers of Gov. Christie's inner circle deliberately caused a four-day traffic snarl in Fort Lee, New Jersey, in an act of vengeance against the town’s mayor who refused to endorse the Governor’s re-election bid. And now, a Friday afternoon bombshell: the Port Authority Official who closed two lanes on the George Washington Bridge now says that Chris Christie knew about the closures. Nearly every day has brought new revelations, and the picture they paint is ugly. The Christie Administration has turned disaster relief money and public roads into weapons of political retaliation, and Chris Christie is nothing if not a micromanager of his Administration. The traffic jam that the Christie administration caused meant upwards of five hour delays for commuters and residents. Even worse, it delayed ambulances responding to medical emergencies. Using the powers of office to punish your political enemies is disgusting. Using your powers of office to punish the people they represent is unforgivable. Chris Christie is unfit for the office he serves, much less the presidency he seeks.13,837 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Analilia Mejia, Executive Director, New Jersey Working Families Alliance

Put Citizens United in the Dumpster of Bad IdeasBecause I think the Citizens United decision was the wrong decision. Our democracy is based on one citizen one vote. Saying money is speech and opening the door to unlimited, secret, campaign contributions by Corporations goes against this very sacred ideal.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Faith Sadley

Liberty School/ Entrance or ExitLiberty School is in need of an additional entrance or exit immediately. Our children are at risk if we continue to use the current process. There is not enough parking to only have one line of traffic flowing.87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brittney Johsnon

Elections shouldn't be for saleMy friends and family no longer believe that their voices and their votes count in this country's elections. The presence of big money in our electorate process is eroding our confidence that WE THE PEOPLE matter. Overturning the Citizens United decision is a big step in the right direction toward restoring the voice of the people in elections.244 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Dennyce Korb

Corporations Are Not PeopleThe Town Council of my community, Fairfield, Maine, unanimously supported such an amendment. The Maine legislature followed suit, as have a number of states. Democracy should not be dictated by the highest bidder. "Here, the people rule" does not translate as "the wealthy people." The people's democracy must be resurrected. Amendment of the constitution is the way this will happen.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Flanagan

Bring Costco to Pensacola, FloridaPensacola, Florida is a thriving city, with forward thinking residents who care about the environment, the economy, and the well being of it's fellow citizens. Pensacola wants to support companies who support their employees and treat their employees with respect and dignity. The residents of Pensacola would like other shopping options besides the likes of Sam's Club and Walmart so that we can embrace the ideology of people receiving living wages for quality work. We don't want to support the Walmarts of the world, but until we have other options, it is difficult to maintain that ideology. We would also love to help Costco build a Green/LEED certified facility here, as many of our residents support eco-friendly building practices.2,076 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Patricia Sarfert
