Prosecute Bush/neocons for war fraud and murderous crimes.Upwards of a million humans were killed, maimed and poisoned by a phony Iraq War. The war was unfunded and has contributed to America's financial collapse and widespread misery among the citizens these criminals pledged to protect.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Randall Lance

REFORM CONGRESSIt's easy for Congress to impose the sequester on the American people. To dictate AUSTERITY in our lives and negatively affect our destiny. Especially because every single Congressmen/women are fully aware that this same AUSTERITY they are imposing on the American people, will never reach their own kitchen tables or affect their own sons and daughters. Don't you think it's time we change that?16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elena Escobedo

Demand California's Republican congressmen support real immigration reform.Our immigration system is broken. It's forcing our friends and neighbors to live in the shadows. Reducing economic growth. And making the American Dream a criminal offense. With 90% of Californians supporting a pathway to citizenship, our state must lead the way on immigration reform. Rather than relying on votes from House members in Mississippi or Iowa, California's 15 Republican members of Congress must provide those votes. Not only does immigration reform make sense from a moral perspective, but study after study shows that legalizing the aspiring citizens all around us will increase economic growth by as much as $1.4 trillion. Help California's GOP congressmen realize their political lives will be in danger if they're on the wrong side of this issue.50 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adam Bink

Tell Gov. Jerry Brown: Support full implementation of Obamacare. No Less.California Legislature voted by 2/3 to implement Obamacare to the fullest but now, Gov.Brown is holding up negotiations on the bill to expand Medicaid coverage to more than one million Californians. He has 63 pages of amendments, some of which are worse than the proposals of Arizona Governor Jan Brewer's amendments would preserve unnecessary bureaucracy, delay the implementation of electronic medical records, and hinder our ability to hit the ground running on January 1, 2014 -- only 9 months away. The Los Angeles Times, San Jose Mercury News, and the Sacramento Bee all say he's wrong on this.74 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adam Bink

Tell Sacramento: Pass the LIFE Act and make California the Leader in Gun SafetyDid you know more than 20,000 Californians illegally possess more than 40,000 guns? And convicted felons can buy massive quantities of ammunition, no questions asked. California's gun laws are better than federal laws, but gun manufacturers exploit loopholes and law enforcement is under-resourced, leading to the murder of three Californians every day due to firearms.The LIFE Act stands for "Lifesaving Intelligent Firearms Enforcement." It's a package of eight bills under consideration in Sacramento.81 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adam Bink

President Obama: Save original Medicare!Medicare Advantage, the Bush-era privatized portion of Medicare, originally cost 14% more than original Medicare, yet it produced no better outcomes. The original intent of Obamacare was to get the sticky hands of private insurance off of Medicare once more, and the Medicare advantage program funding was originally supposed to be cut by 2.2% Following a media blitz and a lot of corporate money, Medicare Advantage is now scheduled for a 3.3% increase in funding this year instead of a cut. Adding insult to injury, the insurance industry is asking for increases in deductibles on original Medicare and a tax on Medigap plans, forcing more people into Medicare advantage. We may lose Medicare by bits and pieces if we don't stop the insurance industry now!9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Gingery

Stop California urban sprawlRunaway development and urban sprawl is creating a serious environmental problem here in California. The attacks by developers on our remaining open space and rural areas is constant. California, by all studies, is already, population wise, in environmental overshoot. This exacerbates all of our other ecological problems. California is now a scene of water wars. Every new development, whether an expensive new housing development or another winery, is making things worse. California has already had 91% of its wetlands drained. It is predicted that the Colorado River could be functionally dry in about a decade. Much of California’s groundwater is in an overdraft state. The drought has caused the snow pack in California to be only 52% of normal as of April 1, 2013. The expansion of fracking, which uses a tremendous amount of water, is the newest threat to our water supply. The water that remains for each individual in the state is becoming increasingly polluted. According to the EPA, the number of rivers in California that are polluted increased by 170% from 2006 to 2010. Of its 3 million acres of lakes, wetlands and estuaries, 1.6 million acres are not meeting water quality standards. Our air is also being affected. The fact that our state is the 12th largest emitter of carbon in the world is behind our state being in the 90th percentile in air pollution in the country. California has 5 of the top 10 most air polluted urban areas in the country. Not only air and water, but much of our state’s resources are being depleted at an unsustainable level. If left unchecked, California will commit slow but steady suicide. Steps need to be taken, and the first should be to create a check on urban sprawl. If there is a genuinely good reason for us to lose even more of our rural land to development and sprawl, it should now be put up to a vote of the people in the area most affected. It should no longer just be left to the politicians and their developer allies. That is the inspiration behind this petition signed by California voters.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gerald Manata
