US Representative Bill Owens, why did you vote to delay Obamacare?As someone who has been involved in the healthcare field for over 25 years, in several different capacities, I understand the vital need for change. The waste, inefficiency, and overpricing in the current system cannot be sustained, just so that corporations and their stockholders can continue to thrive.444 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Peter Mullen

Allow Popular Initiative and Referendum in PAReferenda give the legislature the true opinion of the voting public on issues, and initiative is no more subject to abuse by special interest groups than the legislative process. Referenda give a voice to anyone who is registered to vote, and have worked very well in states that use them.130 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Robyn Blauberg

Stop Corporate Tax Dodging, Invest in US!Many multi-national corporations have been remarkably successful in manipulating the tax system to avoid paying even a dime of tax on billions of dollars of profits. That's wrong and it’s past time for Congress to end corporate tax dodging. Instead of maintaining policies that allow the super-rich and huge corporations to avoid paying their fair share of taxes through foreign tax havens, we need Congress to invest in US! We need to rebuild an America that works for working families and the middle class.87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ezra Temko

Make the Detroit Institute of Arts a National MonumentPresident Obama has the power with the stroke of a pen to designate the Detroit Institute of Arts as a national monument. I am a native Detroiter, and I love the Detroit Institute of Arts. The thought of losing its collection—especially the Diego Rivera murals—is heartbreaking. I can't just sit by and do nothing while my main source of pride in Detroit is stolen.12,613 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Donald Handy

No Cruel Changes to Food StampsLast year, I chose to live on a $30 food budget for a week -- the same amount that millions of Americans rely on through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, also known as SNAP or food stamps. But a few out-of-touch lawmakers are working to institute stringent work requirements, mandate drug testing, and halt access to people who receive other assistance. The impact of these changes will be more people struggling to survive and more children sinking into a poverty that drags our whole nation down. Join me and tell Members of Congress: abandon cruel changes to food stamps until you've lived on $30 a week. Choose love instead of judgment.163 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Mayor Cory Booker

Term Limits for U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. SenateNot allowing individuals to remain in office for an eternity is an important step we need to take to restore confidence in both Congress and the Senate. Term Limits have been introduced in the House but never received the two-thirds vote it needs to pass. In order to move towards restoring America, we need to have fresh faces to help bring new ideas to Capital Hill. Therefore by introducing term limits, this will limit the "career politicians" that are currently stagnant in Washington, DC. It takes courage to make change happen; By signing this petition, it will be a good start! I will be meeting with Congressmen/Women this upcoming Friday when I visit the House Chambers to talk about term limits. Please help me achieve the 50 signatures needed in order to get the ball rolling on term limits. Lets make it happen!57 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joan Melendez

Tell your representative to give bees a chance!Around the world, bees are dying at alarming rates and new science is pointing to the world’s most popular class of pesticides called neonicotinoids (also called neonics), made by giant chemical companies Bayer and Syngenta, as the key factor in the global bee die-off crisis. These key pollinators need our help. Without immediate action to save bees, which pollinate two-thirds of our food crops, everything from almonds to strawberries could disappear from supermarket shelves. Europe has banned bee-killing pesticides but the EPA has delayed action until 2018. Fortunately, Representatives John Conyers (D, Mich.) and Earl Blumenauer (D, Ore.) just introduced a bill to give our bees a fighting chance. The “Save America’s Pollinators Act” will suspend the use of toxic, bee-killing pesticides until a full review of scientific evidence indicates they are safe and a field study demonstrates they do no harm to bees and other pollinators. The bees can’t wait, and neither can we. Please tell your congressional representative to co-sponsor the “Save America’s Pollinators Act” right now!7,101 of 8,000 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker
