The Philadelphia Firefighters are THE BEST Organization within the City of Philadelphia workforce! I believe your group deserves Mayor Nutter to honor the contract you have requested -- NO MATTER who doesn't understand or accept the terms. I know first hand the quality of your employees represents an excellent model for the rest of the City employees to learn from. I had the pleasure of serving your many locations while working for AFLAC and note the team spirit each tour offers to one another and the community at large.If you think that your firefighters deserve fair treatment. If you think that your firefighters families deserve fair treatment. Or if you just think that Mayor Michael Nutter is a lying, cheating, and self serving mayor with no regard for the people that he "serves" then please sign this petition. Let Mayor Nutter and the members of the PFD know whose side you are on!

I request that the use of cellphones while moving in a motor vehicle (i.e. driving that motor vehicle) be outlawed. It is a matter of safety. I frequently encounter other drivers who are preoccupied on their cell phones while poorly executing turns and other maneuvers in traffic It is not merely scary; it is life endangering and completely unnecessary.

California prisons drain $10 billion from taxpayers annually. Prisons can and should be self-sufficient. Oregon requires prisoner to work. Prisoners will gain skills and be employable when they are released.

Our Presidents safety should be the countries top most priority and of the up most concern. The office of the president should be respect, no one who threaten the president should be in attendance.

Proposed bans on assault type military firearms will not be effective in preventing mass shootings. Many other semi automatic and even lever or bolt action firearms can hold many cartridges for rapid fire. By allowing only singe shot firearms the danger of mass shootings would be reduced significantly.

This decision will affect seniors and children whole may need medicaid sometime in their life.

"Researchers calculate that 55% of all littering is done intentionally by people who drop or discard products."...During a one-time sweep of Interstate 35W in Minneapolis, Adopt-a-Highway volunteers picked up 192 tons of trash in one day. The quantity filled 16 Mn/DOT tandem trucks and represented approximately 6,000 filled trash bags." http://www.dot.state.mn.us/adopt/litterfacts.html

I live out in the country where everything is zoned for Agriculture. But we are being taken over by MotoCross tracks. Our peace and quiet that we need for our livestock is being taken away by dirt bikes and ATV'S roaring around at 107 to 115 DB. The noise and the dust is very harmful to the livestock that we are raising.

Over 100 days after Superstorm Sandy hit Governor Christie said he doesn’t have time “to ponder the esoteric question of the cause of the storm.” Sadly, there’s nothing to ponder. As New Jersey’s own state climatologist put it, there’s nothing esoteric about it. Hurricanes are nothing new, of course. But global warming supercharges storms, as warming ocean waters fuel more powerful storms and rising sea levels result in more damage to our Shore. We could use the governor’s leadership to help us reduce the pollution that’s behind global warming and extreme weather. Instead, Gov. Christie has pulled us out of the landmark Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) to cap pollution from power plants; raided almost $700 million from New Jersey’s clean energy programs; and killed the largest mass transit project in America. Add your voice. Sign the petition and ask him to lead on global warming.

I have a grandparent with terminal cancer. I know that had he lived his life differently in terms of diet, he could have prevented this disease and perhaps extended his life a little longer. He is still alive,but my family is playing the waiting game.
