Until proven scientifically that Fluoride is safe and effective for ingestion, we should not be subject to it in our water supply.

The heritage and tradition of the Washington Football team is under attack needlessly. Surveys executed among the Native American population show that the vast majority (90+%) not only aren't offended by the name "Redskins", they in fact support the team and appreciate the representation of their culture in modern media. Public resources are being spent needlessly on this issue in our legislature and is an affront to liberty to potentially force a change, when the majority of the impacted culture does not find the term offensive.

Help us protect our North Los Gatos Neighborhoods from the impacts of 4 4-story buildings comprising 550,000 sq. ft. with a 4 story parking structure, which will bring 3,000+ vehicle trips to the nearby streets and is not compatible with "small town" Los Gatos

Senator Fred Risser, 26th Senate District, is introducing a bill banning dogs from the Wisconsin wolf hunt. Dog-wolf conflicts, especially during the denning season, are guaranteed to lead to death on both sides. By any measure, this is barbarism.

It's estimated that one in four Americans have struggled with mental illness. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's aide's insensitive remarks about Ashley Judd are unacceptable and offensive to millions of Americans.

Recent studies have linked water fluoridation to a plethora of adverse health conditions. Georgia's mandate to fluoridate all public water should be repealed.

I would like to start a recreation center in the Salton City area because of lack of activities for teens/children to do while not in school. 3dreamnet Center will involve drug and alcohol counseling, which will be entwined with the activities. Such as.....weights, social room, movie room, and a game room. Said activities will give the counselor a basic characteristic of the teen. (Counseling not mandatory)

This is an online petition for all involved in the making of "Styrofoam Soul" to finish the project. A trailer was made to get money to make the film, but no luck. http://t.co/fr9erUGI Now with all the Indie project funding sites available ( kickstarter.com indiegogo.com) I am hoping to get it back on the table... Please sign this petition and help me get Norman Reedus to consider restarting this project ...

In a couple of weeks the City Council will vote on two major police reform bills, banning racial profiling and creating an Inspector General to provide oversight for the NYPD. But Mayor Bloomberg is threatening to veto this important legislation. In his time as mayor, Bloomberg has increased the number of “Stop-and-Frisks” six fold—mostly targeting young Black and Latino men and boys. And now he is accusing the New York Times, the New York Civil Liberties Union, and City Council Members of putting the city in danger with these reforms. In a political move we’ve seen time and again over the last decade, he used the tragic deaths in Boston last month and on 9/11 to justify policing practices that violate our civil liberties, saying “God forbid terrorists succeed in striking our city” because of these laws. Both bills are cosponsored by at least 32 City Council Members—a majority of the City Council—but we need 34 votes to overcome a veto from Mayor Bloomberg. Policies like Stop-and-Frisk and the widespread spying on Muslim mosques and college Muslim Student Associations (which the NYPD admits has never produced a single lead), degrade the police-community relationship that is needed for a safe city and turn some New Yorkers into second class citizens. We all need safe communities -- for our kids, our parents, our friends, and our loved ones. But we can't make our neighborhoods safe by violating the fundamental civil rights of our neighbors. Take action now for a better NYPD and a safer New York. Please sign this petition, and then forward it to your friends.

SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE

The proposed 80 foot / 8 story cell tower does not belong next to a neighborhood and school--they should put it away from residential areas and schools. It will destroy our historical views and our home value, as the base station will keep the neighborhood awake all night. Say NO to the variance.

There is overwhelming evidence that President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and others lied to the US Congress and the American people to achieve their goal of invading Iraq. This unnecessary war caused the deaths of thousands of US soldiers as well as hundreds of thousands of Iraqi citizens and seriously injured countless others, both Americans and Iraqis. The Bush Administration is directly responsible. No one should be above the law. For a president, through deception to take America to war is a crime without precedence. Justice demands that the responsible parties be held to account. America needs to reclaim its moral compass and its future leaders need to know that crimes, especially of this magnitude can't be perpetrated with impunity.
