Stop Education CutsOur children's education should be our top priority, including fudning for Arts in Education. Minnesota was once a leader in arts in education programs in schools. This is no longer the case. The Minnesota State Arts Board no longer has a program in place to specifically fund K-12 arts in education programs and our children's educations are suffering. Stop cuts to programs that benefit all areas of education3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda Bruning

Erie County Legislature: Support the NY SAFE ActJust like many of us, I was deeply affected by the tragedy in Newton, CT. After Governor Cuomo passed the NY SAFE act, I was incredibly proud to be a resident of NY state. However, recently, I was troubled to learn that our Erie County Legislators do NOT support the NY SAFE act. Please join me in letting them know how we feel.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Moms Demand Action/NY Buffalo

Washington Legislators: Pass HB 1085 (Washington Health Security Trust)Health care in Washington as it exists now, without HB 1085, causes personal bankruptcies, stops people from seeking preventive health care, cripples small businesses with insurance costs, bogs down doctors' offices with paperwork, while it is generating huge profit for private insurance companies.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jean E Brechan

Stop Pennsylvania Department of Public Health FundingThe Governor’s budget has significantly reduced funding to the Department of Public Health. These cuts have caused Mon Valley location to stop providing services and schdeule to close in the near future. This local site hosts many critical public health services including Child/Maternal Health, Injury Prevention programs and various free health clinics. The local citizens must use our voice to speak out against the loss of these services!61 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vanessa Branch

Allow medical data to be copied directly to the patientCurrently, California does not allow medical labs to send lab and medical test results to the patient. I want to keep my own medical files so that I can track medical data and help different doctors see test results rather than ordering tests that have already been recently performed. For example, Quest Labs has a great program that stores your lab results on line, available to you or your designate using a password. But the State of California is one of a few states that does not allow this and requires that such information go through your doctor only!!13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mike McCarver

New York Legislators and Governor Cuomo: Save SUNY Downstate University Hospital as a publicly-su...For several years SUNY Downstate's University Hospital administration has been making poor decisions, including purchasing a private hospital called Long Island College Hospital which had been running a deficit for 17 years. The results of chronic under-funding, mis-management, and that ill-advised purchase have been followed by the real threat of financial bankruptcy for the hospital, which would mean loss of support for their public medical school and a total loss of services to the surrounding Brooklyn community. New York State's Legislature and Governor should provide the funding and administrative expertise to rescue SUNY Downstate University Hospital from this disastrous situation and support and upgrade it as a needed public component for its associated public medical school and for the surrounding community.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Ritchie

Tell Congress to Put the Brakes on Out of Control Hyperinflation, Spending & Price Hikes that Onl...Over Decades, unchecked and untamed, Hyperinflation and Extreme Price Hikes have spun out of control, putting a tremendous amounts of Economic strain, stress and duress in the minds and pockets of the poor, lower-class, the working-class and middle-class communities and low-income families including Veterans and Military Families. Congress needs to step-in and put an end to an Era of Greedy, Selfish, Cold-blooded, Mean Spirited and Unjust Economic Policies, Reforms and Dealings that are the cause of an endless cycle of abusive Extreme Price Hikes that are hurting the Economy and causing Hyperinflation, Socio-economic Strain, so much Suffering and Mental Distress in People's Lives. Consequently, the US Constitution, gives the US Congress, among other things -- the Power to Regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes; To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures; etc. That includes, the Power to Coin Money and regulate the Market Price of Money or the Value, thereof, to Regulate Prices and fix an uniform standard of Weights and Measures in Supermarkets, Grocery Stores, MiniMarts, Convenient Stores, Farmers, etc. Solely, Lowering Taxes, Increasing the Minimum Wage, creating Sustainable Jobs and controlling Expenditures are not sufficient to bring about an Economic State of Boom and Prosperity for all Americans. We need to do more, by controlling and putting the brakes on out of control Price Hikes, too much Spending and Hyperinflation.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by US Veteran Eric Manuel Ortiz

Compassionate use of MarijuanaMy petition is about giving patients access to the medicine they need. Many of these people already get their medication from the black market. This means that already sick people who need marijuana to help them eat or to relieve pain, may be receiving mold and pests with their medication. This helps to ensure the quality of medicine that these people most likely already receive.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David
