Whether you have lost a loved one to gun violence or not, every mother fears that they too can loose a child to gun violence. Shopping at a Mall, going to see a movie or attending school should not be a threat to your life! A million mother's marching on Washington can give Congress the courage and support they need to pass common sense laws to protect the rights of lawful gun owners and take them out of the hands of criminals. If life begins with mothers then we must lead this march! We can do this!

We care about this issue because young people (and many other groups) in Massachusetts need the services provided by our state budget. Yet elected officials frequently shy away from raising taxes, and when they do, they inevitably hurt the poorest among us.

Make a state and federal law against sexual orientation discrimination for emloyment and housing

I am a parent of elementary students and a citizen concerned with general safety in our society. Because of the NRA's reckless positions our country is more unsafe. Please stop taking NRA money and think critically about their agenda so you can vote for common sense measures instead of voting for radical positions.

It’s crunch time. A bill to raise New Jersey’s minimum wage is sitting on Governor Christie’s desk, and there’s only days left for him to sign it. The bill would raise the minimum wage from $7.25 to $8.50. Better still, it would raise the wage each year to keep pace with inflation. Raising the minimum wage will drive up wages for all workers, create jobs, and give New Jersey's struggling economy a much needed jolt. Governor Christie needs to listen to the 76% of residents who favor the bill and sign it now.

The time is now to act. We can have a balanced and reasoned approach to gun safety.

This petition seeks to find justice for the shooting of Mark Vanderhall Jr. who was shot seven times by a police officer on the streets of DC. Mark Jr. was already on the ground with 3 bullets in his body when the officer who is still working our streets today shot him an additional 4 times attempting to end his life.

This petition is endorsed by and in conjunction with the Delaware Friends of Midwives. Access to midwives in Delaware is severely limited. Maternity care is in crisis. Maternal mortality and infant mortality rates are unacceptably high and rising according to Amnesty International. A recent report found that 50 nations rank better than the United States in terms of maternal mortality, yet the US spends twice as much on maternity care. Nations with better maternal and infant mortality rates employ midwives as their primary maternity care providers. A recent study has found that the rate of Cesarean deliveries has risen to 34% of all live births, despite the World Health Organizations recommendation of 5-15%. Amnesty International reports, “New analysis shows that the states reporting higher than average cesarean rates (over 33% of births) had a 21% higher risk of maternal mortality than states with cesarean rates less than 33%.” A 2005 study found that 3.7% of homebirths attended by Certified Professional Midwifes (CPMs) resulted in cesarean deliveries. CPMs are trained and credentialed to offer expert care to women for pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period. They provide affordable care that is prevention oriented with particular attention to education and support for the mother. CPM care is proven to be safe and improve breastfeeding success rates. CPMs earn the only nationally recognized midwife certification that requires out-of-hospital birth training. They practice autonomously and consult with other health care providers as needed. However, they are currently not able to obtain licensing in the state of Delaware. In order to be licensed in Delaware, CPMs must be able to establish "a collaborative agreement with a Delaware licensed physician with obstetrical hospital privileges." However, this is not possible as malpractice insurances will not cover CPMs or homebirths. This barrier means that no doctor in Delaware is able to work directly with non-nurse midwifes, and consequently, making it impossible for CPMs to obtain a license for the state of Delaware. Licensing CPMs will increase access to midwives for families who choose to birth in any location they choose. As noted, CPMs can help to drastically reduce cesarean rates and maternal mortality. We therefore ask that the Delaware legislators seek to improve maternity care in Delaware by changing the current Non-Nurse Midwifery regulations to allow CPMs to practice in our state. Our citizens deserve the best start to life possible, and we cannot give them that if we do not allow them access to the best maternity care.

I have been in an accident where the uninsured person got away with not paying a dime. Myself and my insurance however had to foot the bill. Everyone should have to have a drivers license and auto insurance who drives on our roads. It's the only sane choice for safety and accountability.
