Mental health facilities for troubled teensI have a disturbed and periodically violent grandson who had to be sent from his home state of Washington, devoid of any residential schools for kids with mental illness, to one of the few facilities for kids like him in NM. There should be facilities everywhere for these kids so that the massacres which have occurred in recent years will be greatly diminished.226 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Niela Miller

Mayor Bloomberg: It is time to have realtime bus schedules in NYCWaiting for buses on the q5 route is a real pain; they do not come often and when they do, they come bunched together. There is no accountability. I could find better use for my time and it would probably help the economy as most people would spend more time shopping. Geneva Switzerland is a good model if the MTA needs ideas.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Roland

It's Gun Safety not ControlPush our progressive leaders and media types to stop using the pharse "Gun Control" legislation. No one wants to be controled; even NRA members are for gun safety. It is all about preception. I believe more people would be open to dialog if it were "ALWAYS" termed Gun Safety guidelines when pushing the policy debate.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Eileen M. Fox

Don't reduce our Social Security benefits.Reducing Social Security benefits will reduce the money for our groceries, medications, health needs, and costs of daily living. We have limited income. It is difficult to stretch our budget without the income we have saved and count to have available for expenses. Our benefits are a large part of our monthly income.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mary McPheron

Aundra Grant: Factory RetirementI am a factory worker who has developed Fibromyalgia and this condition is a constant health issue. Being able to retire at an early age will allow many to focus on their health treatment and not work with this debilitating condition while enduring the heavy work loads of today's society. Every job should be categorized for retirement age according to the types of work preformed, to ensure equal quality life for all U.S. workers.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Aundra Grant

Protect our seniors by protecting social security.President Obama made an offer to Republican John Boehner to cut Social Security benefits and leave in place some of the Bush tax cuts for the top 2%. The cuts in Social Security would amount to "a cut of more than 5 percent and more as the years go by." For many retirees this would mean critical cuts to benefits that cover medicine, food, and other daily necessities.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Protect our seniors by protecting social security.

Social Security Does Not Add to the National DebitFirst I'd like to make sure that people are aware of the fact that Social Security does not add to the Nation Debit. It is a 'stand alone' program. It takes money into the system via payroll deduction and then pays out from that fund. The Republician Party for years have been trying to get rid of Social Security. Lately they've been trying to tie it to the Nation Debit.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jerry Sodemann
