LGBT undocumented people need you to come #out4citizenship!With over a quarter of a million people in the U.S. who are both LGBT and undocumented, immigration reform that includes a roadmap to earned citizenship would be a monumental achievement in the fight for LGBT equality. Progress is being made on Capitol Hill toward advancing a bipartisan bill that would lift 11 million undocumented immigrants out of the shadows. Right now, we need LGBT voices to come out and build momentum for immigration reform that is inclusive for LGBT immigrants and their families. Make your voice heard: come #out4citizenship and sign our pledge. Visit www.out4citizenship.org for more information.65 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Crystal Patterson

Senator Kirk Stand Up for Equal Pay!In 2013, women still earn only 77 cents for every dollar a man earns and the amount is even lower for African-American and Latina women. Over a lifetime, the gender wage gap adds up to over $480,000 in wages that are denied to a woman who is doing exactly the same work as a man. Women could use this money to pay the mortgage, to buy the groceries, to fill the gas tank, even to put kids through school. The Paycheck Fairness Act (S.84 & H.R.377) will strengthen current laws by: • Prohibiting retaliation against workers who inquire about employers’ wage practices or disclose their own wages; • Strengthening penalties for equal pay violations; • Empowering women to negotiate for equal pay; • Strengthening education and enforcement efforts; • Creating stronger incentives for employers to follow the law. We all know that women deserve equal pay for equal work. Equal pay would help close the wage gap, boost the national economy and increase women’s economic security. As Equal Pay Day approaches on April 9th, marking the day in the year that a woman’s earning will match what a man earned in the previous year, there is no time better than now to stand up for women and families. Tell Senator Kirk to sign on as a co-sponsor of the Paycheck Fairness Act today!152 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Mary Kay Devine

Respect the massage therapy professionPlease pull the Lifetime show "The Client List" from air because it promotes prostitution and gives massage therapy a bad name. Reputable massage therapists lose business because of bad publicity and tv shows like "The Client List" that depict the profession poorly.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Arianne Boyajian

Protect the aina from unplanned development: keep historic legislation ponoState legislation is attempting to open Hawai`i's doors to unplanned development by amending historic preservation laws. Current legislation requires developers to perform an Archaeological Inventory Assessment (AIS), a process of coming to know what is on the landscape, prior to altering it. Bypassing this initial step is poor planning and costly. Please kill Senate Bill 117114 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kathleen Turner
