Eleven million undocumented Americans and their family members are waiting while John Boehner and the Tea Party Caucus play politics with their futures. H.R. 15 enjoys bi-partisan support in Congress with endorsers on both sides of the aisle. We believe that, if introduced on a discharge petition, H.R. 15 will pass the House. Representative Alan Grayson, we are counting on you to introduce H.R. 15 for discharge to the House of Representatives.

As a fan of underground rap I have found that the government limits these artists from expressing themselves fully on regards to government issues. These artists are unable to say what they want and express their opinions because the government limits a right that we are all granted: freedom of speech. Everyone should be able to say what they want without being limited.

It is difficult to sleep at night knowing our very lives and the lives of our children are in TEPCO's hands. We demand that our government protect us now. Call Pres. Obama at the White House (202) 456-1111 and send a personal email to Sec. of Energy Moniz: [email protected] TELL THEM TO TAKE OVER THE FUEL REMOVAL and to CONTAIN FUKUSHIMA WITHOUT DUMPING RADIOACTIVE WATER INTO THE GLOBAL PACIFIC. We should not have to beg for this. Write a letter to the editor of your newspaper too!

Veterans Courts assist veterans charged with non-violent crimes who are struggling with addiction, mental illness, or other illness and come in contact with the criminal justice system. Veterans need help, not jail. The Veterans Court for Lake County, IN has been denied because of funding. Let's find another way. By signing the petition you are supporting legislation to fund Veterans Court in Lake County, IN without reducing other social services in the county.

Pesticides pose serious health risks to children, to the Chesapeake Bay and local waterways and to honeybees. Maryland researchers need basic information about when and where pesticides are being used so they can investigate any potential links to intersex fish, beehive deaths and clusters of serious illnesses like cancer, autism, asthma and birth defects. Contact Governor O’Malley today and ask him to strongly support this much-needed mandatory pesticide reporting database. Tell the Governor that for our health, for the health of our kids, for clean waters, and for our honeybees we need basic information on pesticide use.

If every Democratic senator co-sponsors this bill right away, the media, Senate and House Republicans, and President Obama will get this message loud and clear: Social Security cuts are off the table.

I've listened to about enough bloviatious crap from the right-wing who are trying to destroy this country. It's not enough that they want to shut down the government - now they want to steal what we have earned, working since we were teenagers in the 1950's and '60s. Enough already! This is the line - cross it, and it's clobbering time!

Contrary to what you may have heard, part of the Keystone XL pipeline is very close to going into operation. The Southern Leg of the Keystone Project, which Barack Obama has not only neglected to stop, but has signed an executive order to expedite, is only months from going into operation. When it does, it will commence its 700,000-850,000 oil-barrel-per-day assault on the climate even without the northern Keystone XL Pipeline being completed. Tell Obama not to let climate disasters like this happen on his watch.

Tobacco companies are marketing products with fruit, candy and alcohol flavors which are sold at local stores. We, the undersigned, believe these flavored tobacco products are created to appeal to children and teenagers in order to get them to experiment with tobacco. We believe discontinuing the sale of these products in Hawaii will ultimately protect children and youth from becoming addicted nicotine users. We strongly support a statewide law to discontinue the sale of these flavored tobacco products in Hawaii.

We've always been told that spying on the citizens is a prerogative of the totalitarian states such as Communist or Nazi regimes. And we always thought and been told that this could not happen in US. That was before we learned a true scope of the NSA programs, including spying on heads of our allies among other 35 states, as well as monitoring phone calls and e-mails of tens of millions of people in different countries around the world and probably most of the citizens of this country. Now after initial shock and disbelieve most people must have realized that the illegal spying was going on for a long time, in violation of court orders, not just by NSA, and that FISA law is one big loophole. Yet, there was still some hope that things might change and that legislature will wake up from coma of narcissistic greatness and trans of patriotic propaganda and will close the loopholes that took away rights guaranteed by the American Constitution that they swore to uphold and defend. That all has changed on Thursday last week (October 31, 2013) when a bill that would validate NSA’s harvesting of phone, e-mail records cleared the Senate Intelligence Committee and progressed to the full Senate. If the FISA Improvements Act will become law, “Congress effectively will be validating expansive powers that have been claimed by the NSA and upheld by a court--but never explicitly written into statute—to harvest the phone and e-mail records of millions of Americans”(Washington Post, http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/senate-bill-would-validate-nsas-harvesting-of-phone-e-mail-records-privacy-advocates-say/2013/11/02/aa24932e-4310-11e3-a751-f032898f2dbc_story.html). Please, sign this petition and send the strong message to the Congress and President that they cannot take from us our Constitutional Rights. Say 'No' to legalization of warrantless blanked phone and e-mail wiretapping. For more information visit http://screwedbylawyer.tumblr.com/post/66067056140/spying-without-borders-to-become-the-law
