Tell Congress: Extend Emergency Unemployment Benefits Through 2014Unless Congress acts, the Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) program ends between Christmas and New Years for 1.3 million jobless Americans. Unemployment benefits will be cut from as much as 73 weeks to 26 weeks after December 28. EUC should continue until the economy picks up and jobs are available again (There are still 3 jobless for every job in the US). It's not only the 1.3 million that will loose benefits come December 28th but also the people that are set to run out of state benefits by the beginning of the year. The state of NJ has a unemployment rate of 8.4% one of the highest in the country.85 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nycole Evans

Goodwill: Pay your disabled workers a fair wage!Recently, NBC News did a story on a shocking subject—Goodwill doesn't pay it's disabled employees minimum wage, more than that, some employees make mere PENNIES an hour! Claiming legality under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, Goodwill utilizes a loophole to pay some of its, most at need employees, as low as $0.22 an hour. While half a dozen Regional CEOs, of this 5 Billion dollar a year "organization", are making a salary over $400,000, it's reprehensible to think that they are so grossly abusing their disabled workers. As America rallies together to fight for a much needed raise to the federal minimum wage, we can't forget those who legally still aren't making even that. Tell Goodwill CEO Jim Gibbons that it's time to start treating his workers fairly and paying them an honest wage!

We need an immediate change.232 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Jason DeWitt & Coach Joe Rutkowski

Should Landlords Have To Support Their Tenants?The City of Chicago should not have the right to force any citizen to provide free shelter for individuals. The mayor can open shelters to house individuals who cannot meet their financial obligation to the landlord. I most definitely am being affected by this issue. The financial burden including but, not limited to court cost is insurmountable.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda Marie Newsome
