  • Bassett USD Board of Education - STOP BULLYING your teachers, parents and students!
    The bullying (of students, parents and staff) has gone on far too long, and the Board of Education won't do anything about it. In fact, they do it during board meetings! While a FREE workplace bullying assessment WON'T fix everything, it is a START. It means the Board of Education is LISTENING TO THE COMMUNITY - a community that is deeply hurting from rampant bullying - not just of teachers but of parents, students and other employees.

    Earlier this summer, a New Yorker article revealed that public television pulled the documentary Citizen Koch from a planned national broadcast, out of fear of upsetting major PBS donor and right-wing billionaire David Koch. This petition was started to counter such intimidation and urge New Orleans's local PBS station to air the documentary.

  • Get Rid of Gridlock in Congress
    We all know how the gridlock in the U.S. House and U.S. Senate is affecting America. Like an ineffective management team in a company that needs to be fired and replaced with a new team, this is what we need to do in Congress! By pledging to NOT re-elect all of the incumbents, not only will this send a message, it will bring fresh air and new blood into Congress. We need to take action and elect individuals who will focus on what is good for the whole, rather than what is good for themselves! By taking this action, it will start the change that is needed!

  • A Petition to Congress to support an amendment to Public Bill 89-800
    Professional sports organizations, as defined in 28 USCS § 3701(3), have enjoyed certain privileges, immunities, and tax exemptions normally accorded to traditional 501(c) 3’s. Understandably, such privileges were awarded in 1966, in the context of the NFL's merger with the defunct AFL, in order to promote a) growth in the league, and b) to disallow the NFL from shrinking the number of competing teams and organizations under its corporate umbrella. Certain types of organizations inferred to in the tax exemption have outlived the tax exemption's purpose: to ensure growth and stability. In light of the NFL's $50 million executive payroll, the players' salaries, the billion dollar contracts awarded to various media - all of which have been virtually tax free and paid to the NFL - we, the United States Congress' constituency, in promoting fairness and integrity, are demanding that Congress act with all due expedience in accordance to the NFL's - and all professional sports organizations' - current financial portfolios.

  • Just Say NO!
    The country is being held hostage by the Republican House's unreasonable demands for their laundry list of right-wing pet projects. John Boehner said they will refrain from causing a global economic crash if the President allows more oil drilling, drops various environmental regulations, defunds the Consumer Protection Bureau, and halts the implementation Affordable Care Act. We must not let Obama give in to these extremists' ultimatums!
