North Carolina Legislature: Support Public TransportationAs a part of the Lexus EcoChallenge, our group is trying to solve problems of Global Warming. This includes reducing greenhouse gas emissions, mainly carbon dioxide. Transportation accounts for about 31% of total U.S. CO2 emissions and 26% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2011. Greater access to public transportation, will reduce the amount of cars on the road reducing CO2 emissions.52 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Paige Hines

Opposition to Marathon Oil/Speedway DevelopmentSpeedway is seeking zoning variances on the four (4) acres formerly occupied by the old Mt View Inn property in order to construct a gas station, convenience store with a large portion devoted to fueling large diesel vehicles such as tractor trailers and construction vehicles (see area in red square below). These variances include the permitting of fueling on the property and deviations to the township landscaping ordinances as well as signage. This proposal will significantly increase traffic of large trucks entering and exiting Route 30 and more importantly increase the potential for congestion and accidents in an intersection currently rated a āDā by PennDot. In addition, the proposed Speedway will also contribute to light/air pollution and significantly increase vehicular noise in the community in which we live. As a Unity Township homeowner, I strongly oppose this development as proposed.145 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Bart-Tom-Mark

Ted Leonsis: The Washington Wizards need a changeFans of this team have suffered enough. Ernie Grunfeld has shown that he's incapable of constructing a team that can compete in today's game. He hasn't made a single move in the past five years that has shown any promise, outside of elite talents which were given to him in Wall and Beal, he's always dealing from behind in trades. What talent we do possess is being squandered by a vastly inferior coaching staff.59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chris Carpenter

We want the CIH Waiver in Indiana to cover GPS devices for Autistic Individuals!I am the mother of an autistic son who likes to wonder off. I have tried to get help from the waiver, paying for a device that would keep track of where my son is at in case he wonders, and would also alert me if he got a certain distance away for his own safety. It would also allow him to do small things somewhat independently without sacrificing his safety. Many autistic individuals go missing and are harmed needlessly.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alicia

Tony Rackauckas DA: Drop charges against victim of hate!A victim of bullying, and race and sex discrimination at Tustin High School was suspended for 5 days after attempting to protect himself from his attacker.

Let them know that this is not ok by signing this petition.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kimberly Ayala

STOP 1576PA Bill 1576 was proposed by Senator Pyle for easy land development. The bill allows the created Independent Regulatory Review Commission to "evaluate" Fish and Game's list of endangered species. By the bills order, the committee cannot protect any endangered species not already protected on the federal protected species list. This action removes most of PA's endangered species from protection.This committee is influenced by the gas and timber industries, thereby allowing companies to profit at the expense of our species and land. The hydraulic fracturing, drilling, and clear cutting following suite also presents major health concerns. To add species to the protected list will be near impossible because the new committee's process is designed to benefit profiteering.323 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Joseph J. Boyle

Human Trafficking: SlaveryHuman Sex Trafficking is the coercive act of movement or non-movement of persons, used for the profit, in exchange for sex or labor. It is personal to me because I have been a victim. The problem is getting worse and worse. The human rights of a person should be America's top priority. Make unpaid labor illegal. Stop censoring public awareness. Respect the victim's rights with regard to privacy. Do not criminalize the victim. Enforce the law against every trafficker!87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brittany Clark

Anti-SLAPP Legislation - strategic lawsuit against public policyHi, We the people in the state of Florida and everywhere should protect our right to free, responsible speech. There are businesses who threaten people with lawsuits with the sole purpose to shut them up and they succeed because attorneys can run as high as $300/hour. That type of lawsuit is called SLAPP ā strategic lawsuit against public policy. You can read details of my case in: http://whatintegrity.biz.ht Florida has an anti-slapp legislation but applies only to government and associations and not businesses. It should include everyone. No one should be afraid to speak the truth. Please sign my petition. Without a sense of caring, there is no sense of community. Without a sense of justice, there can be no civilization. Thank you.56 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Margit Ma
