time outits time for the governnment to stop utility companies from increasing their rates until the public is given an increase for cost of living. These companies that control what we basically need to survive are allowed to constantly increase their revenue and be allowed tax credits from our tax dollars only to increase ttheir profits.the average person can barely pay the amounts needed for a basic way of sustaining life. The same companies will shut down vital services on people that has paid for their services for decades with no reemorse which in some cases causes death.How can they have it both ways.TThe rule is no monopolies but ameran ue and laclede gas operate under some kind of special rule which allows them to have no competition so they raise their rates at every oppertunity .while still enjoying our tax dollars to operate1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by tooslo

Legalize Gay MarriageNot all LGBT families can legally marry or adopt children or get to keep their children and if we don't make that change now, they will still continue to lose those rights and that's not fair.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jessie L. Cohn

Filibuster ReformRepublicans are using the threat of filibuster to delay and prevent nominations to key posts in the Judiciary, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Labor Relations Board and more.

Let's Get Healthy CaliforniaSacramento cut $1 billion from our state's healthcare system and the much-needed Medi-Cal program. Without this funding, millions of Californians will lose access to quality healthcare, and tens of thousands of healthcare workers (like me) could lose their jobs. These cuts will go into effect -- unless we act now!2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Dade, Jr.

NC's new “brand” – the State of Madness?Gov. Pat McCrory says he wants to rebrand North Carolina. And he’s getting lots of help from hard-line conservatives in the NC General Assembly. We are in danger of becoming known across the nation as the “State of Madness.” There are bills to let cities declare an official religion, allow loaded guns in bars and schools, gut environmental protections, put legislators in charge of women’s health, increase UNC tuition but give vouchers for private academies. . . Already this year, we have new laws that slash unemployment benefits, deny Medicaid coverage for 500,000 poor families, and give a new tax cut for 23 super-millionaires while ending the state’s Earned Income Tax Credit for 900,000 NC families! Here’s the kicker: To make it harder for people to vote and hold officials accountable, there are also bills to cut the Early Voting period in half, ban most weekend voting, tax parents whose kids vote from their college address, require a government photo to vote, end Same-Day Registration during Early Voting, and more. This is madness! Tell Gov. McCrory you’re watching him – tell him to oppose voting restrictions and outrageous legislation.

Tell Rep. Steve King: Stop promoting hateful viewpoints as fact todayLast week, the Heritage Foundation released a controversial immigration report, widely discredited after it was discovered that one of its authors believes that “no one knows whether Hispanics will ever reach IQ parity with whites.” Now Republican Rep. Steve King is embracing the ugly report and is using it to oppose immigration reform. King hosted a recent press conference and cited the shoddy Heritage figures as fact, saying that "at no stage in their lives" do undocumented immigrants "make a net financial contribution to this country." This was no slip of the tongue -- he upped the ante by endorsing the Heritage report as "legitimate" in an op-ed the very next day. Some leading Republicans have already spoken out against the Heritage report, including Marco Rubio and Rep. King's colleague in the House, Paul Ryan. We need Rep. King and all members of the House to stop promoting this report so offensive to Latinos. When you sign this petition, we'll make sure that John Boehner, the leading Republican in the House, sees your message as well. Demand that Rep. Steve King stop promoting hateful viewpoints as fact today.1,535 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Matt Sinovic

Mayor Pavia: Help save a lifeBy adding a more prominent and noticeable pedestrian walk sign at the intersection of Cove Road and Euclid Street. Current signage is in dull yellow and red writing. A brighter neon yellow/green sign as seen elsewhere in the city will make it more visible to drivers. I also propose putting a sign in the middle of the crosswalk for those who do not look to the sides of the road and simply always staring straight. We have a problem. Drivers do not stop at the crosswalk where the current sign is placed. It is also hidden by large vehicles parked along the road prior to the crosswalk. When coming up from the beach, you do not notice the sign until the very last minute at the top. At times, vehicles are traveling up the hill at over 50-75 mph as well as heading down to the beach at the same rate. I've witnessed a mother with a baby stroller almost lose their lives in the crosswalk. I walk my dog down to the beach each day and no day is better than another. It's a major issue and I believe a change is due. Why continue to put our citizens lives at risk? Let's get that sign changed before it's too late! I propose that or even a stop sign might work! People should not have to walk in fear of a specific intersection, let us make it a safe traveling point. Sign this petition and save a life today! Thank you all for your signatures and God bless.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Louis Procaccini
