Picked Last in Gym ClassThe purpose of this petition is to stop kids from being singled out in gym class. We need to eliminate the concept of being "picked last." A team should not be determined by its weakest or strongest player, but by how well they work together. When gym teachers select at random order each time, this will allow kids to make new friends and ensure greater self development. Schools should aspire to be safe havens. They should be about bringing students together and not spreading them apart. JOIN IN! SIGN ON!14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Renee Martinez

End Nepotism in Connecticut State GovernmentIt was recently reported that the Department of Economic and Community Development has been hiring children and other close relatives of employees for high paying summer jobs within the department. The child of one employee is being paid $14 an hour, and made over $12,000 last summer. There are a limited number of these jobs, just 13, and 3 of them went to family members this summer. These jobs were unadvertised, so locals that might have been interested and qualified didn't even have the chance to apply. This simply isn't right. The DECD should have to perform a fair and open search to fill these positions. Tell the DECD to stop giving out jobs to their employees relatives.93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Taylor Leake

Ask Barnes&Noble to stop supporting hate based authors.I was very bothered when I read the paper this morning. A author Amber Dee Parker wrote a book for little kids to explain to them why it's wrong to be gay and teaches little kids to pray for gay peoples sins. She is scheduled to speak at Barnes&Noble today in Lincoln, NE. This petition is not asking Barnes&Noble to stop selling this book. This petition is asking Barnes&Noble to STOP endorsing authors who marginalizes members of society. I want Barnes&Noble to cancel Amber Dee Parker's event. This is taken from the July, 20 2013 Lincoln Journal Star Online copy. The book in a nutshell Amber Dee Parker's “God Made Dad & Mom” tells the story of a biracial boy named Michael who asks his father why his friend Jimmy has two dads. The story follows Michael through the day as he learns about family at parochial school, including the Bible passage Genesis 1:27: “So God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." And later, on a surprise trip to the zoo, his father shows him even animals have fathers and mothers. Along the way, Michael learns that he, like his friend Jimmy, was adopted, but by a mother and a father. The storybook ends with Michael and his father praying for his friend’s dads -- and that they ask God for forgiveness of their sins.133 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Ryana Swift

End Dangerous Work Conditions At Dunkin DonutsThrough the hottest days of the year, workers at the 27 West Lake Dunkin Donuts were forced to work long hours, through the heat of the day, without air conditioning. After days of feeling sick, tired and dizzy they had enough and went on strike until the unsafe conditions were resolved. Thousands of workers are experiencing the same unsafe conditions and Dunkin Donuts should make their safety their number one priority.152 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Fight For 15
