No New Mexico Food TaxFood should never be a taxable item. Families barely survive with the expenses of rent, water, gas, electricity, and mortgages. Everyone needs to have the opportunity to afford "healthy foods," and healthy foods cost money. This tax will hurt everyone in New Mexico, especially at the middle-class level, in time; especially single parents. This tax will force people to buy "cheap" foods and cheap foods cause obesity and other health issues. Taxing food is WRONG and UNHEALTHY. Encourage the Government to find a better choice to fulfill the needs of the State when it comes to money. Thanks for reading and thanks for supporting.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tere Cruz Carns

I oppose PNM's Replacement Power PlanThe issue of replacement power for the San Juan coal plant is perhaps the most important energy decision that is looming and will have enormous consequences for at least the next 20 years. PNM’s abandonment and replacement power filing - Is not the lowest cost solution; Is not the best environmental outcome; Is not the best jobs outcome; Locks in fossil fuel energy when an avalanche of scientific data demonstrates that we must transition from the burning of fossil fuels to renewables.750 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Bianca Sopoci-Belknap

Governor Abercrombie: Stop the Champlin Wind Energy project in KahukuKahuku has long been at the forefront of developing wind energy. We are proud of that. However, we absolutely reject this proposal that will effectively surround our small rural community with multiple 500' tall wind turbines that will alter our landscape and have negative impacts on our schools and close knit community. For our personal well being, this project must be stopped.121 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Makani Pono

The University of Arizona Medical Center's Shameful Hiring Record!I am a local activist who is concerned about community access to mental health services. I was shocked when I discovered the University of Arizona Medical Center (UAMC), the largest provider of behavioral and mental health in-patient care in Southern Arizona, doesn't have a single black physician working at its treatment facility. This shameful situation sends a clear message about which segment of the community the UAMC, a nationally recognized teaching institution, serves and which one it doesn't. Tell the National Institute of Health to stop giving millions of dollars in federal grants to the UAMC because its hiring record is inconsistent with a true commitment to serving all Southern Arizonans.51 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lola Rainey

28th Amendment - Remove Special Interests From WashingtonOur rights are not worth anything unless we are willing to stand up for them. The collective voice of our democratic process is under fire from special interests who are able to buy a much larger chair at the negotiating table. Their influence has become so strong, that the candidates WE are left with on election day are usually already bought and paid for. In effect, the election is more of a selection... because special interests have already provided us with THEIR candidates - and that is a BIG part of the problem. What's more, the influence of special interests in Washington has become so powerfully corrosive that it is the special interests themselves that write much of the legislation that is passed. There is also a revolving door and a very questionable conflict of interest for those firms who provide favorable employment to those politicians who cooperate after they leave office... often making hundreds of thousands of dollars. Before we can effectively tackle anything meaningful in this country, we have to make our voices heard again. Otherwise, even the best legislation will likely become corrupted by those who have the power and influence to profit from it. The rich and powerful have made their voices heard in Washington. The truth is the power has always resided within the masses of the people if we act together and make our voices heard. NOW IT'S OUR TURN.809 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by ProgressiveModerateParty

Amazon's actions are supporting the rising tide of anti-Semitism in the US and world-wide.876 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Howard Brown

Legalize industrial hemp, medical marijuana, and recreational marjuana in OklahomaThis petition is being started because the time is now to get over these draconian laws against a plant that was once the number one cash crop in this nation. Its benefit as an industrial crop is well documented. As a medical alternative it is quickly becoming obvious that it is far more beneficial than harmful, and as a recreational drug, it is far safer(and less addictive) than any of the alternatives. The time is now. Stop the prohibition against this plant that is far too beneficial to be ignored any longer. Take a stand for the full legalization of cannabis, as an industrial crop, a medical alternative, and a recreational drug. Instead of locking people up, tax it, and apply that money to the betterment of our state.55 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Oklahoma Citizens For the Sane Application of Marjuana Laws
