Free marginal government landSmall food-plot ownership granted by the government to the people. Land has traditionally belonged to the people and not rich landowners who use it to hold value and employ people, but rarely to grow organic, local food. It belongs back into the people's hands to help the planet heal faster and secure healthy living for us.183 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Regina Jensen

Remove Gov. Hickenlooper from Co.This petition voices the opinions of the people of Colorado. This petition is started in opposition to the new gun control laws that have now plagued Colorado. We are petitioning to have Gov. Hickenlooper removed from office. And replaced with a more traditional gun friendly candidate. Hickenlooper has said our opinions and voices dont matter. Show him he was wrong to think that and it will cost him his job!35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Justin Wright

Congressional Benefits ReviewCongressmen have wonderful pay and benefits that are at a cost to taxpayers. Congress needs to provide evidence their performance has justified their salaries and benefits. If they are unable to pass legislation that is for the good of the American people, they should not be allowed pay or benefits. It's called pay for performance and Congress should not be exempt!1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Steven Wilcox

Single Payer Universal Health CareThe United States spends (wastes) more money and has poorer outcomes than most Western and some Third World countries. Even poor Cuba devotes 70% of its budget to health care, social service and education and every citizen (and tourists) receives free health care. We have no excuse for having such a bad record of health care in the U.S. Support a Single Payer Universal Health Care bill in California to be the model for the nation. We need a new bill. Contact your State Senator and Assembly person and request that they author a bill such as the previous AB810.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gabie Berliner

Demand Minimum Wage Be $22!I have silently stood by and watch people on minimum wage go from sufficient income in the '70's slowly and continually shrink without any significant increase for the last 40+ years. Did inflation stop with it? No, and who has benefitted? The companies have and obviously need to be forced into paying employees what should have been theirs all along.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susan Frost

Repeal the Texas Homosexual Conduct LawTexas is one of 3 remaining states that has yet to actively repeal a law criminalizing the private, consensual, intimate, sexual relations between homosexual people, 10 years after the Supreme Court of the United States invalidated such laws as unconstitutional in 2003. We do not want Texas to place its role in history as the very last state in the nation to repeal this language from the law books. Please stand up and say you want this stigmatizing law to go once and for all!289 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Jeffry Faircloth

Topeka and DC Legislators: Kansans also want sane gun laws!Right now Congress is on the verge of caving on the three measures we thought could be passed after the Newtown massacre: universal background checks, a ban on assault weapons, and a ban on high-capacity magazines. Although a vast majority of Americans favor all three, we might get none of them, just more guns – in schools! It’s because lawmakers are listening to gun manufacturers via their mouthpiece, the NRA, the lobby with the big bucks. We must speak right now. Sign the petition - it will take a minute. This time it is aimed at all our Senators and Representatives in DC, plus our electeds in the Kansas statehouse. Tell them we don’t want a society that celebrates ever more guns when statistics and costs showing their accidental damage makes us all less safe.2,070 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Jan Swartzendruber
