Stopping aerial spraying over Kauai and the Hawaiian IslandsWhy are we feeling ill? The annual spraying of 20 billion tons of aluminum, barium, strontium, mercury and other toxic, carcinogenic and biohazardous material over cities/counties everywhere (including daily over Kauai Island an the Hawaiian Islands) is already having devastating effects on humans, the soil, the water, forests, eco and marine systems and all life forms. The short term effects have shown to be causing residents and visitors to have respiratory illnesses frequently as a result. But the long term effects are deeper, such as alzheimer's, neurological disorders and cancer. If the public were adequately informed on this topic, most would take appropriate action to put an immediate stop to these destructive activities1,255 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Peoples Pono Alliance

If you cut Social Security and Medicare, then cut your benefits tooSome members of Congress are proud that they are voting to make cuts to Social Security and Medicare programs. They say we all must make sacrifices. But they ask, once again, for those who can least afford it to shoulder the burden. Let Congress share some of that burden.830 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Quinn

Choice in South Carolina Public Education (SC Senate Bill 313)The South Carolina General Assembly is currently debating a bill named the “School District Choice Program and Open Enrollment Program” (Senate Bill 313). If passed, this legislation would enable families within the state of South Carolina a greater choice of which public school their children attend. This bill states that it will “promote student achievement by making the South Carolina public school system the most choice-driven public school system in the nation by increasing student participation in, and student access to, public school educational opportunities both within and outside of their resident school district, regardless of where they live or their socioeconomic status.” It is critical that we make our voices for change and freedom of choice be known to our leaders in the South Carolina legislature. Sign this petition today and let our elected representatives understand the importance of choice in public education.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by WDH

Ammo ControlWith the advancement of non lethal ammunition we should push for legislation of live ammo restriction. Non lethal ammunition such as rubber bullets can be used for personal defense of self and home without violating the second amendment. Saving the lives of countless people if we can begin to push for live ammunition to be restricted to just hunters, shooting ranges, special police units(i.e. swat), and the military.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jon Bethea

Delta: don't steal my miles when I die!Are you a Delta SkyMiles member? If so, try not to die....ever. Delta has just quietly changed its frequent flier program for the second time in 2013. The new rules, as of March 2013, say "miles may not be transfered...upon death." However, the 2012 rule book states: "While the Miles expire upon a Member’s death, the Administrator or Executor of the Member’s Estate may request Delta reinstate and transfer the Miles from the deceased Member’s account to one or more members’ accounts." That paragraph is now gone. How can Delta do this after advertising "miles that don't expire" ?!!?!

Stop the Corporate Owned, For Profit Immigrant Detention CenterThe City of Joliet is currently proposing building a corporate owned, for profit immigration detention center. If allowed, it would be Illinois' first and would make way for other similar facilities to be built in the state. Help us send a clear message that we don't appreciate deficit expanding, for profit, detention centers that overwork and underpay their employees and cut corners in medical care and proper treatment of their detainees.96 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Rodriguez

Save the worldThe most effective procedure to destress oneself and reduce high blood pressure is optimal breath characterised by slow and deep breath. The Coherent breath has helped us on the Indian Railways to reduce train accidents attributable to failure of the human element by remaining vigilant at work and thus improve personal effectiveness and productivity. It is a cost effective procedure and is not liked by the medical profession since it does not promote sale of blood pressure reducing costly medicines.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by R.K.Palhan
