Florida Insurance Regulatory Reform ActRequire full financial disclosure of all insurance companies and any and all related companies, including offshore subsidiaries. Our homeowners insurance rates are rising very fast and all we hear is excuse after excuse about their financial condition. Without having to present complete and truthful financial disclosure our regulators are flying blind.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Concerned Citizens

Save quality education: End high stakes testingIn the past few years I have seen the quality of my children's education deteriorate as teachers and administrators try to cram more and more test prep into the school day in an effort to increase test scores. This test prep eats up valuable instruction time that could be used to teach our children skills they will actually need for college and career readiness like how to organize and write a good essay and how to evaluate information sources. Not only does the testing system provide a fundamentally flawed assessment of our schools but it also stifles teacher's creativity, essentially forcing them to teach to the test.188 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Noelle Dunlop

Do Not Cut Social SecurityPresident Obama is suggesting to cut the social security that all of our retired seniors depend on for living. This cut will effect every citizen in the US. It was hard enough earning a dollar why cut the benefits that were being paid with every single pay check going towards retirement income. Say NO to the cuts on social security.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda

Fair use of Queen's Beach, Waikiki (4) Sand Volleyball CourtsThe Queen's beach "Sandbox" is the only location on-island available to set up volleyball nets, and the current community of volleyball players have long used the space without conflict, inviting a constant flux of players at all levels. In the last year, no less than two organizations have secured exclusive use of the space to promote their "for a fee" volleyball programs. Additionally, college teams use the courts for practice and tournaments. The time available to individuals not affiliated with these organizations is now unreliable at best, and nearly non-existant. Furthermore, players have been told to take down their personal nets to allow for the organizations' use, because they have "permits" securing their exclusive use of the public space. The expected "first-come, first-served" implicit rule that normally governs public spaces is exploited by some individuals who now set up their equipment early in the day, (during work hours, for example) and leave the net up when not in use to prevent use of the courts, effectively "reserving" the courts. Additionally, the organized teams, youth clubs, and fitness groups use each of the four courts, when there are others wanting to play-- and the organizations might be accommodated on one, two, or even three courts-- leaving at least one for non-organization use. Your role, as a member of the sand volleyball playing community, with a vested interest in securing equal opportunities to play on these courts, is to take proactive action to voice your concerns. Please sign this petition and describe your observations, suggestions and perspectives--- urging our representatives to take action to provide more spaces to play sand volleyball, or create statute that will result in fair and equitable access to anyone wishing to play sand volleyball on Queen's Beach, Waikiki.191 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Joshua Lyons

Social security and MedicareDon't allow any cuts to social security or Medicare. You promised us to protect us against any cuts or reductions. Keep your promise as we promised to reelect you. I served my country in the military for 23 years active duty, national guard and the reserves. I became 100% disabled because service to my country in Vietnam, Iran and Saudi Arabia. We need regular cost of living increases for social security. My spouse and I have meager retirements and we need every dollar to survive. I am a kidney cancer survivor due to direct exposure to jungle defoliants that I guided the Air Force to spray in operation ranch hand missions while I was an army engineer helicopter pilot in Vietnam. My spouse has undergone her 7th knee replace my surgery. We vets and retired older Americans need your help Mr. President. If cuts are made, we and many others will lose our homes, our health and our faith in government. We love our country, but does our government love us? If we can't afford to live here any more, will we forced to declare bankruptcy and in poverty?1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by William stanton

Save the already insufficient funds of our Social Security system.Thousands of good American citizens are already attempting to survive below poverty level. Far too many are homeless and hungry. For a great majority, the only thing that gives hope is a monthly payment from the social security fund that they worked most of life to contribute to.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lori Hawk
