  • MARISSA ALEXANDER SHOULD BE PARDONED
    We can fight to restore the promising young life of a woman in Florida. A mom who shot a warning shot where no one was injured. She got 20 Years In Prison. Marissa Alexander is a mother, a college graduate with a Masters Degree, and had no prior criminal record. This is a travesty that can be rectified and her life can be restored. Tell Governor Rick Scott To Pardon Marissa Alexander

  • Shame on you Rep. Blake Farenthold! ¡Vergüenza debería darle Rep. Blake Farenthold!
    SB 744 is not the best bill in the world but so many hardworking immigrants who have helped build our homes, construct and maintain our roads and bridges, and have taken care of our children, continue to live in fear. As Texans - more than any other State - we must work for fair and humane immigration reform which begins with a path to citizenship. Anything less is flat out immoral and inhumane after all they and their families have invested in our State. ¡El 50% de su distrito es hispano, sin embargo rehúsa apoyar el camino hacia la ciudanía por medio de la reforma de la ley de inmigración en el Senado, y aún está dispuesto a regalarles $46 mil millones en fondos publicos los contratistas de defensa!

  • If you could vote to help the economy, create jobs, reduce the deficit and support renewable ener...
    We're past the tipping point of reversing the affects of climate change. What we need to do now is become more innovative and not lose sight of ending what escalated it to begin with. Renewable energy initiatives around the world are creating a significant number of jobs while oil, coal and gas are building more automated processes to reduce manpower. If you could vote to improve the economy, create a significant number of jobs nationally and internationally, reduce the deficit and end climate change by supporting renewable energy initiatives...would you? Sign the petition if you see this as a viable effort for our leaders to follow through on!

  • Domestic Killings & Abuse by the Police, Judges ...ESPECIALLY the Family Court Judges & Attorney...
    Violence is violence. The heir of the justice system (G.Z.) has committed other domestic crimes in the past. Zimmerman & other's like him have to be dealt with or the killing will continue...The courts cover up what they wanna cover up...they are the biggest criminals that allow other criminals to WALK!!!! I had brain surgery in October of 2011, and today I raise awareness on DOMESTIC VIOLENCE...This madness HAS GOT TO STOP. I believe the education has to start within the judicial system. Legislators you can make this change. Be Proactive!

  • Jurors should not be able to profit from performing jury duty
    One of the jurors in the George Zimmerman case has already made a book deal. Nobody should profit from the tragedy of another. I am not sure whether a different verdict would have made her book less saleable, but knowing you can make money could create a bias.
