Ban Photo Traffic Enforcement in ColoradoTHIS BILL WAS KILLED BY COMMITTEE TODAY AT 4 PM In COMMITTEE MEETING. I.e. The committee reviewing this bill, would not even allow it to go to a vote in the Colorado Legislature. This is your government at work. So sorry to report. If you are interested in organizing a citizen referedum to force a state wide citizen vote on this bill please contact me by clicking the CONTACT email above. Thanks Evie Hudak- voted against the bill, Democrat Angela Giron- voted against the bill, Democrat Matt Jones- voted against the bill, Democrat The above legislatures effectively killed the bill in committee Larry Crowder- voted for the bill to go to the legislature for debate, Republican Ted Harvey- oted for the bill to go to the legislature for debate, Republican The creaters of this petition are NOT affiliated with either the Republican or Democratic parties. Just so you know. See this VIDEO explaining why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=3DrLAOcdAXM#! Mechanized robotic law enforcement such as photo radar and photo traffic lights is an invasion of privacy, makes frequent mistakes penalizing the innocent, does not support due process of law, does not promote safer driving, and is simply a quick and easy method to randomly raise revenue by governments unable to manage their city finances in a fair and equitable manner. Mechanized law enforcement by photo traffic enforcement programs are employed under the guise of "traffic safety", yet unbiased independent traffic studies show that this is not the consequence of such systems. In Denver, the excuse of "crosswalk safety" has been used to justify stop light photo enforcement, yet in all cases in Denver, the systems- generating millions of dollars revenue- have NOT been set up at intersections where pedestrian traffic is high, but rather simply at intersections with the heaviest road traffic and very low pedestrian use. Photo law enforcement is generally used in areas where speed limits are set low and known to produce the greatest ticket revenue- not where speed limits are reasonable and set according to federal guidelines requiring proper engineering studies based on reasonable driving practice. Even now, Colorado law requires "CONSPICUOUS" signage warning of photo traffic enforcement, and yet such signs do not follow federal regulatory sign height requirements, are hidden by parked cars, concealed by ordinary traffic, and frequently consist of small folding stands sitting on the ground- in clear contempt for the existing law which is ignored by the companies and the city running the mechanized ticketing operation. Mechanized law enforcement is WRONG and is yet another dangerous infringement upon everyone's legal and constitutional rights. Support a Colorado ban on photo traffic enforcement and protect your driving rights and the legal rights of all citizens who drive. This is an issue that transcends all political party lines- PLEASE spread the word and share this link, no matter if you are an Independent, Green Party, Democrat, or Republican.

Fund Texas State Parks by Defunding the STARR test!The Texas Legislature is considering closing state parks. Our family camps in Texas state parks because of the great environment for families. It would be tragic if ANY of Texas' great state parks were closed. Millions of dollars are being spent on the education STAAR test. Very few people are in favor of this test. The State of Texas should FUND its state parks and DEFUND the STAAR test!37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Allison Copony

Parents and Grandparents Who Insist on a Ban against Assault Weapons and High Capacity ClipsPresident Obama asked for supporters of his proposed ban on assault weapons and high capacity clips to speak out in support, to send a message to Congress that our voices count more than gun lobbyist funding. This proposal aims to mobilize parents and grandparents to use their networks to send a loud message to Congress in support of the President's proposal.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Hilary O'Donnell

We Oppose a Voter I.D. Law that Disenfranchises VotersNorth Carolina residents are concerned about proposed so-called "voter I.D." legislation that requires voters to show varying forms of I.D. when they show up to vote. The simple fact that up to hundreds of thousands of voters may become ineligible to vote and that there have been virtually no cases of voter fraud makes it imperative that we protest such a law.9,678 of 10,000 SignaturesCreated by Tim Moreland

Tell House and Senate chaplains: Stay away from anti-Obama "prayer breakfast"The official chaplains of the U.S. House and Senate are supposed to be nonpartisan pastors who offer spiritual support and guidance to our nation's elected leaders. But on Inauguration Day, they're scheduled to speak at a right-wing event in Washington alongside some of the most hateful and racist figures on the Christian right. Pat Robertson describes President Obama as a "socialist" with a Muslim "inclination." Joseph Farah runs WorldNetDaily, a conspiracy-theory website that continues to claim was born in Kenya. Jonathan Cahn is a fringe "messianic rabbi" who sees signs of the apocalypse in Obama's speeches and writings. We've only got a few days to stop House chaplain Patrick J. Conroy and Senate chaplain Barry Black from lending the prestige of their offices to this hateful exploitation of Christian faith.256 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Michael Sherrard, Faithful America

Tell Texas Lawmakers: "Buy American"Texas State Rep. Yvonne Davis has filed HB 535, the "Buy American" bill. This bill would require state agencies to give preference to purchasing goods made in Texas or the U.S. when the option is available. If products are not made in Texas at a comparable cost to other goods, the next preference would be to goods made anywhere in the United States. Millions will benefit by the Texas government investing in American jobs and America workers. Disabled veterans and farmers will be some of the first to benefit from such a law.117 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Amanda Guynes
