Jewish "leaders" don't speak for meSelf-styled American Jewish leaders don't speak for me or the vast majority of American Jews. Stop giving them a platform to behave as arbiters of Jewish values, acceptable discourse about Israel or anti-Semitism.130 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Daniel Sieradski

You're right Mr. President, we need election reform nowIn his State of the Union Address President Obama said "When any American -- no matter where they live or what their party -- are denied that right because they can't wait for five or six or seven hours just to cast their ballot, we are betraying our ideals." He's right. We need reforms. People like 102 year-old Desiline Victor shouldn't have to wait another year for change to come. Please sign this petition thanking President Obama and our Massachusetts State Legislative Leadership (who have also called for change) and urge them to make 2013 the year of election modernization.555 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Sara Brady

Fracturing100% no Fracturing zone in Washington state . It use's to much of our natural resources,(Water 1 million gallons a day). The chemicals used to mix in and the residuals that come out of the fracturing process can affect our drinking water be it underground or surface water and possibly depleting our aquifer. Polluted water leaves our people with long and short term health issues and expenditures, that the state of washington with have to cover. The people of Pennsylvania and Canada who are exposed to fracturing chemicals through well water and food supplies(cattle, sheep and crops ) are affected by the toxicity of the chemicals added to the soil and local water supply. Fracturing companies are out for profit and are not concerned with the long or short term effects of the waste product that they produce by the fracturing process and will claim to recapture the water that returns to the surface, but don't have the ability to clean either captured surface water nor the water left in the soil, to its original pure form it began with.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jerald Boger

Raise the Minimum WagePassing legislation now to raise the minimum wage to $10/hr by 2015 is not only necessary, but long-past warranted. Many Americans left behind in the wake of corporate greed have been left no alternative than to accept positions with organizations that only pay minimum wage, no matter what skills or experience the employee brings. That has had the effect of throwing millions of workers into poverty. In the richest country in the world, where corporate profits and CEO compensations have never been higher, that has a stock-market that has come roaring back, to have millions of working families living in poverty is a travesty. Please, join me in telling our representatives that this is no longer acceptable and the minimum wage must be increased to allow our fellow citizens the simple luxuries of food and roofs over their heads.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kristine

Save Hoquarton Slough/Front StreetMost are not aware that Tillamook PUD's proposed Front Street alignment for the portion of its new 115Kv electric transmission line designed to serve Oceanside will run right down Front Street. The alignment will preclude new development and redevelopment in this most historic part of the city. It will also curtail current employment growth as well as new job opportunities, devalue property and be a potential health risk.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Aufdermauer/Johnson

Christian Progressives Need To Speak Truth To "Kings"Many Christians are under the false impression that Christians shouldn't get involved in politics or government. This is not true. The Prophets spoke truth to Kings all the time. Read Jeremiah 22. The prophet is warning the King to treat workers and the poor right!204 of 300 SignaturesCreated by The Christian Left
