Walmart's latest outrageI work hard at Walmart and I shouldn't have to donate plasma just to pay my bills. But as the father of three, I struggle each month just to keep my kids fed. It's gotten so bad that I'm forced to live payday loan to payday loan. This year, I'm on track to make just $12,000 at Walmart. And I'm not the only one. Recently, news broke that Walmart was actually running a food drive asking its own employees to donate to hungry coworkers so they could enjoy Thanksgiving. That isn't right. While the Walton family has more wealth than 42% of our country combined, many Walmart workers like me are forced to turn to government assistance just to pay our bills. It's time for a change. That's why I'm calling on the Walton family to publicly commit to paying us a decent wage. Legal Disclaimer: UFCW and OUR Walmart have the purpose of helping Wal-Mart employees as individuals or groups in their dealings with Wal-Mart over labor rights and standards and their efforts to have Wal-Mart publically commit to adhering to labor rights and standards. UFCW and OUR Walmart have no intent to have Walmart recognize or bargain with UFCW or OUR Walmart as the representative of Walmart employees.104,018 of 200,000 SignaturesCreated by Anthony Goytia

48 Million Uninsured vs. 4 Million Cancelled PoliciesI have friends and family who have never had health insurance and under the Affordable Care Act they will finally be covered for health issues. It is only right that the most influential and richest country on the planet be active in providing the opportunity for their citizens to have health insurance coverage.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Randall Outand

Election reformThis proposal would most effectively get special interests out of our government. Our elected officials are there to serve the common good of this country, not just the wealthy and powerfull. It would also make it possible for any citizen to run for public office based on good ideas and not on their ability to get financing.30 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Lewis Keys

Ban Gas Powered Leaf Blowers in SeattleGasoline powered leaf blowers are noisy, negatively affect our health, and pollute our precious environment. Many are powered by two-stroke engines which can emit 30 percent of their unused gas and oil as exhaust according to the California Environmental Protection Agency. The American Lung Association states that leaf blowers "can pollute the air even more than cars."

Stop the Dominican Republic's violence against HaitiansWe condemn the Dominican Republic’s constitutional court ruling of Sept. 23, 2013, stripping citizenship from anyone born in the country to parents who were undocumented. Further more we condemn the use of violence against Haitians now living in the Dominic Republic. We are requesting that the United States intervene on behalf of Haitians who have already suffered greatly.1,953 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by rosa kamson

N.Y. Elected Officials: Don't Delay Affordable CareMy husband passed away earlier this year thus leaving my two college students and me without health insurance. Cobra offered me continued coverage, at an approximately cost of $2,000 per month. I am a 57 year old self employed woman with college tuitions, a mortgage and extremely limited income. Almost anyone could find him/herself without affordable care insurance at anytime in their life.71 of 100 SignaturesCreated by maureen reid

Stop Black Friday from starting on Thanksgiving DayI dislike that I can't spend Thanksgiving Day with my girlfriend. We have to make dinner early so she can be able to eat. She has to juggle having dinner with my family and her family in 3 hours. She has to go in at 5 PM to 7 AM and only rest 2 hours then go back for 4 more hours. Only so people can get deals. Black Friday should be on Friday not Thursday.34 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Virginia Enriquez

PLEASE DON'T SELL THE DIA TREASURESEveryone is affected by the right to see and feel what art is about. We the people can't keep creditors taking things away from us for their own powers and pleasures. No matter where they are from, creditors take your assets in order to "fill in" for the bankruptcy. In reality, you don't owe anything to these creditors. They are just here to steal from you. If they were to give you a "bond" or "credit", they would make up the money out of thin air and type a number in your bank account, which is what you call MONEY. That's actually -- nothing. You don't ever see the money, you see the number typed on your account. So, what will Detroit get for the treasures at the DIA? NOTHING!!!! Nothing can replace the DIA the way it is!!!!! We will lose the right to go and see real art, get educated about what it looks like, and enjoy our time at this beautiful place! Please rethink before you grant the right to creditors to do whatever they want! ACT NOW AND SIGN THIS PETITION IF YOU CARE!38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Marija
