Tiberias: Bring Panini Prices Back DownUntil recently, Tiberias on 34th Street had a takeout menu that included paninis. When eaten in the restaurant, the panini was served with chips and salad, and was double the price. For a student living on a small budget, the take out option was the only option. Now, without notice, Tiberias has instituted a policy that after 6PM, all paninis come with a small salad and chips and will cost double what they used to.87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Miriam Shapiro

Chocolate: Your Savory = Child SlaveryI will not lie, I love chocolate and at any chance, I usually indulge myself with a chocolate bar or two or three for that matter. I didn't realize that most of my chocolates (cacao) comes from Africa. Africa is one of the biggest exporters of cocoa (cacao) and some of its client includes: Nestle's, Hershey, Ghirardelli and etc. These plantations where cacao comes from employs child workers as a form of cheap labor. These underage workers are usually trafficked from poor rural areas and sold to plantations for as little as $250 US dollars. Most of these children will spend of their life at the plantation working without ever getting a penny in return. This is modern day slavery and we should voice our concerns! The officials within the African government are corrupted and that will never change unless we voice our concern and demand that our chocolate companies make a stance against child slavery and enforce their policies that they set forth but yet to enforce because their business ethic resolves around PROFIT.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Daijiro Otta

Sequester This!The impending sequester will spur widespread spending cuts that will cost numerous jobs and adversely affect the lives of millions of people. Immediate shutdowns will impact education, medical services, construction projects and economic recovery. The sequester is a reckless political gamble engineered by Congressmen who will continue to receive generous government handouts in the form of big paychecks, first class medical coverage and guaranteed pension for retirement.69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by M.

Support Jerry Brown's Education Funding Reform.Governor Jerry Brown proposes to reform California's school finances, through a simple and transparent formula that funds similar students similarly, and links funding to the cost of educating students. The proposal will increase districts’ ability to design programs that best meet the needs of their students, as well as refocus the state’s role on monitoring student performance and intervening when districts show signs of struggling. The proposal has been praised by both the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC), and California's nonpartisan Legislative Analyst's Office. This petition will let your legislator know you support such significant, necessary, and immediate improvements to California's school funding system.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Kelly
