Decriminalize AutismMy adult son is autistic. Doctors and hospitals refuse him care and attempt to redirect us to institutional care. Every time he is in the emergency room, doctors want him sent to a state psycniatric hospital that has a history of deaths, not from natural causes. If I agreed to have him sent, he would be shackled and transported in a sheriff's car. I just called to have him transported to the ER, because he appeared to become increasingly agitated with a medication change. The police came with the paramedics and roughed him up. It must stop. We have to come up with humane ways to deal with mental handicaps. If the handicapped are not discriminated against and receive appropriate medical care, they are less likely to need crisis treatments.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gayle Adcock

GRANT PROFESSOR JOHN BOYLE TENUREWe request that the Board of Trustees seriously re-examine the reasons behind Dr. Boyle's denial of tenure. What we have read suggests he has been treated very unfairly and not with the best interest of NEIU students in mind.146 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Karen Smith

Stand by teachers and unionsWhy has Kansas voted for ruining the unions and teacher rights? It may very well destroy the qualityt education system we presently have in Kansas. I have been a teacher for 27 years and am proud of the work I have done and the excellence to students Kansas schools has provided. Teachers have asked very little for their level of education, time and commitment and have definitely not received the monetary rewards they deserve. But to now trying to silence them and take away their rights will be the ruination of public school system and perhaps this is what many legislators want, but as a community, this is NOT what the public wants. I am surprised by the recent legislation and actions and will be watching closely to see who votes against education, unions and public education.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rob Davis

STOP BIG BUSINESS FROM USING THE FEDERAL COURTS TO BULLY AND STEAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF THE I...Stop Big Connecticut Company from stealing Chicago native Erica Chriswell -dba- Eryka Kane's Trademark. Erica is a Chicago native born and raised in the Wild Wild Hunnits. Erica managed to get her break and chance to make it out of the hood when she performed on "Get it Wet" with Twista. I'm sure you all have heard many of her works. She is an accredited Platinum independent artist. Support her in her fight to stop a big company from trying to use big marketing campaigns and the court system to steal her "Eryka Kane" Trademark. She belongs to Chicago and she is a independent artist as many of you are. Don't let a big company get away with stealing the trademark of an independent struggling artist who has invested in her career for over 10 years. Chicago and the rest of the world should support this cause!79 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Erica Chriswell

Stop rising co-payments!!My petition is about rising co-payments charged by physicians, or insurance companies, to Medicare patients. I am on social Security Disability, and as such receive a set monthly payment determined by the amount of social security taxes, that I have paid over the years. Because I have been receiving SSD for two years, was automatically placed on the Medicare insurance plan. The amount that I receive for SSD, assists me in paying my monthly bills. Due to me paying my bills, I have little left over for food, so am definitely unable to pay additional charges due to a rise in medical co-payments. Therefore, I am unable to continue to seek medical assistance for the dire health issues that were recently found by my physician. The rise in co-payments, must be stopped!1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ida L Collins (Ida Loretta Schouten)
