Fare TaxesWe are sick of property taxes and sales taxes, to pay for EVERYTHING. It is time for a State Income Tax! Washington State has one of the most REGRESSIVE tax systems in the U.S. The poorest (20%) non-elderly of our residents pay nearly 17% of their income in State taxes. The richest (1%) non elderly of our residents pay just less than 3% of their income in taxes.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Michael Swan

North Carolina: We Cannot Neglect Our SeniorsNorth Carolina narrowed its criteria for Medicaid eligibility in 2012 and its effects are demeaning to our senior citizens and mentally ill. As of January 1, my father, who is sick with dementia, no longer qualifies for Medicaid because although he is mentally ill, he is not physically ill enough because he can still do things like bathe himself, walk, and dress himself, and therefore will be denied coverage even though his doctors agree that he is unsafe to live on his own or without the structure and care provided by his assisted living facility. Therefore, it is up to my two young sisters and my fathers siblings - and roughly 12,000 families like mine across the state - to produce the monthly cost of his care, putting all of our financial futures in jeopardy. Please help me send a message to our state elected officials that it is intolerable to treat our senior citizens like this, and we need to create new legislation that reverses the effects of this change and addresses the gap people in this position will be faced with.5,082 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Anne Keyworth

Re list All US Wolf Population NOWThe stupid caving in to lies from Wyoming ranchers. See Earth Justice facts that the predation of livestock per Wyoming, Utah Colarado ranches was all the responsibility of Wolves. FACT of the 1400 +/- fatalities in the study only 26 were actually proven killed by wolves. This is a lesser number than the Lying Farmers/Rancher's own dogs killed.84 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laurence Taylor

Stop the 25% Fee Increase and Obamacare Loophole for UC StudentsIt was already too late when my friend, a UC Berkeley student Kenya Wheeler, found out that UC management caps our student health insurance coverage of lifesaving care. Now Kenya is having to fight off medical bankruptcy and collections agencies at the same time he is fighting to recover from brain cancer. But UC executives are trying to increase our health insurance fees by 25% instead of agreeing to meet Obamacare standards that would protect students like Kenya.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Charlie Eaton

IRS: Investigate PETA for FraudPETA has approached NASCAR about sponsorship. It costs millions of dollars to sponsor a driver/car. If they have millions of dollars to spend on marketing, why isn't the money being used to promote adoptions of healthy animals in the community? I believe their non-profit status should be revoked and the entire organization investigated for fraud and possible animal abuse.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kelly Green

Demand a free opt-out law from Smart Meters in WASmart meters pose known serious risks to health including cancer, and pollute the environment. They increase the likelihood of theft by monitoring a household's schedule. The American Academy of Environmental Medicine has called for a moratorium on the installation of transmitting utility meters. Present legislation, H.B. 2289 - Enacted – 5/11/2009, allows the installation of “'innovative energy technology,' to include smart grid and/or smart metering." This law must be changed.986 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Shira Nahari
