Tell Rep. Van Hollen, "Cut Pentagon waste, not Social Security, Medicare, MedicaidKey to resolving the so-called "fiscal cliff"/deficit crisis, Congress must cut wasteful Pentagon spending. It is out of control and defense contractor CEOs couldn’t be happier. Even though the Iraq War is over, and the drawdown in Afghanistan continues, contractor CEOs making up to $26,000,000 a year are lobbying their friends on Capitol Hill to protect their exorbitant corporate salaries and profits, all at the expense of middle class and military families. Enough is enough. CUT THE PENTAGON WASTE and strengthen, not cut, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other real and pressing needs!247 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Herb Ettel

"President Obama: Save our EARTH FROM BEING HAARPED INTO EXTINCTION"Money...Is not so important as to let the most powerful kill and destroy our planet Earth. Watching the devastation is making people want to die or kill loved ones to save them. The animals dying in bulk, people getting sick, major NOT natural disasters. SAVE OUR PLANET EARTH NOW!4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cheryle Johnson

Dick's, stop selling semi-automatic guns permanentlyMost of the guns used in mass murder rampages, like the one that took place at Sandy Hook Elementary School, were purchased legally. Dick's Sporting Goods, where Adam Lanza reportedly attempted to purchase a semi-automatic weapon last week, has suspended the sale of these weapons for an undefined period of time.141 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Rose Lord

ForeclosureLosing home to illegal foreclosure. Disabled Vet and partner had lousy lawyer. And Mellon's attorneys filed illegal documents in Bankruptcy and Civil court. Evil Judge let foreclosure go through to Bank of New York Mellon who has no standing. No one cares, no one is listening. Foreclosures should stop now, stop kicking people out of their homes. We had no due process, so many illegal things happened during this whole process. Banks have the courts in their pockets. So angry at the system. We have no where to go, we can't get an apartment. More to the story...4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lynn Tomaro

Declare Westboro Baptist Church a terrorist organization and revoke their tax exempt status.I'm horrified as an ordained minister and psychotherapist at Westboro Baptists policy of intolerance toward the GLBT community. Their web site and their protests at funerals are unbelievably hurtful. That they are threatening to show up at the funerals of the children killed in the Connecticut massacre is one more episode of domestic terrorism and should not happen. They are no longer a church, they are spreading terror and should no longer be tax exempt.59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Frank Overton

Add Mental Health To The American School CurriculumPhysical education has long been a part of the standard American school curriculum. Why not mental health? Why not educate children from a young age about their mind and feelings, how they work, and how to manage them? We must break the stigma against maintaining our mental health or asking for help in this area if we need it. What good is a healthy body without a healthy mind?120 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stass
