Folks in North Dakota want Senator Heidi Heitkamp to take a public stand in support of marriage equality as the Supreme Court gets ready to decide the future of Proposition 8 and the Defense of Marriage Act. Will you support this please; everyone deserves equality no matter who you love, same-sex or not.

In the heart of the Forest Hills/Woodbourne neighborhood lies three neglected city owned land plots. This Jamaica Plain neighborhood is very dog friendly, but lacks a dog park or off-leash dog area. Dog owners take advantage of green spaces like nearby Parkman Playground or Forest Hills Cemetery. However, maintaining leash laws means recognizing the realities of shared spaces. Turn the Barlow Street plots into a dog park because securing the safety of everyone in the community should be a priority.

Opponents of same-sex marriage claim that marriage for the purpose of procreating and/or raising a family , they must not allow marriage between a man and a woman who are unable to, choose not to, or are too old to raise a family. The point is, they will never demand that, thereby they are being highly hypocritical.

54% of Hoosiers oppose a ban on Gay Marriage, but Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller is the primary author of briefs to the Supreme Court in the cases heard today, on California's Prop. 8, and tomorrow, on DOMA. We need you to stand up publicly to the bullies and bigots along with the majority of Hoosiers in support of our friends, neighbors, co-workers, and families. I have married gay friends in California and elsewhere, and gay relatives who cannot get married in Indiana.

Twelve years ago, a group of vegetarians, most of whom were Hindus and Buddhists, successfully sued McDonald's for putting beef broth into its so-called "vegetarian" French fries. McDonald's agreed to apologize and give over 10 million dollars. But twelve years later, they're still cooked in it! It's disgraceful, unfair to vegetarians, and must be stopped!

If Western Youth Institute closes in North Carolina it will harm the economy in Western, North Carolina. I have several family members that are employed at Western Youth Institute a.k.a "High Rise" that are in jeopardy of being unemployed if this facility closes. More than 380 people will lose their jobs. This will definitely effect the local economy in our area. Governor McCory you are supposed to be assisting North Carolina with job creation. Why are you taking jobs away.

Chuck Schumer is the lead Senate Democrat working on immigration reform--he gets to decide whether millions of undocumented immigrants will be imprisoned or legalized. Yet he’s also taken over $100,000 in campaign contributions from the private prison industry. Is it any surprise he’s pushing for billions more dollars spent on increased enforcement and detention of immigrants? We can’t trust Sen. Schumer to push for fair legislation when he’s accepting money from private prison companies that have a strong interest in jailing as many immigrants as possible. How much of an interest? The two corporations from which Sen. Schumer took money, GEO Group and CCA, made $296.9 million in profits from the jailing of immigrants last year. Tell Sen. Schumer to return this money immediately. If 15,000 people sign, we'll personally deliver your petitions to Sen. Schumer and demand a response.

California can strike a blow against Citizens United by passing the California DISCLOSE Act, a bill that would shine a bright light on the shadowy interests who depend on secrecy to influence elections. The California DISCLOSE Act (Senate Bill 52, Leno-Hill), sponsored by the California Clean Money Campaign and endorsed by Progressives United, local MoveOn.org counsels, and over 100 other organizations, would mandate clear and prominent disclosure of who is behind political TV, radio, print, and mass mailer ads -- on the ads themselves. SB 52 will stop special interests from hiding behind fake committee names by requiring ads to show their actual original contributors. Giant corporate interests are trying to kill SB 52. Join the California Clean Money Campaign and Progressives United by signing our petition to urge state legislators to pass the California DISCLOSE Act today.
