  • Term Limits
    This country desperately needs term limits on all elected offices in our State and Federal Government. Elected officials should only be permitted to serve 2 consecutive terms and receive paid benefits for that period of time.

  • RENT
    I would like Congress and every State to have a maximum amount of rent they can charge for rent . Every time minumum wage goes up or every year I lived in an apartment my rent has gone up five or ten dollars and it has also been raised to compare to minumum wage going up . ! This is GREED . ! I want to demand this to stop . ! To many people are on Section 8 waiting lists because they can not afford to pay rent . ! This is ridiculous and we need to come together as a people and STOP THIS . ! This is happening all over the country . !

  • HSBC Drug Criminals Should Do Time
    People go to prison for possessing small quantities of marijuana. Why are bank criminals who enable murderers and terrorists let off with a small fine paid for by a criminal corporation? Is small time crime the only prosecutable offense in America any more?

  • Driving while black
    A Black American may be driving in a neighborhood where White Americans live and a white policeman stops him feeling that he has no business being there. I understand that freedom allows a person to travel any where he wishes without driving while being black. I do not know why these racist policemen can feel that they can disrespect citizens the way they do especially when they have not broken any law? I may be driving a new Mercedes and wearing ragged jeans. This causes the cop to think that I have broken the law. The policeman needs to go some sensitive training all over this country especially in the southern areas of this country.

  • Rethinking Mental Heath in America
    The recent shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary has brought with it many different discussions including gun control and the state of mental health in our country. This petition is a request for action towards rethinking how mental health is dealt with. It needs to be more accessible by means of availability and more inexpensive options for care. There has always been a stigma towards individuals who suffer from a mental illness. We must address this negative thinking and begin better education as a means for creating awareness and a path away from the views that mental illness represents a personal weakness. I propose we begin in our public libraries as they house the tools to access information. As a library staff member, I am a tool keeper. That being said, I am going to put together a program in order to educate and inform my community on various issues linked to mental health. I encourage other programming librarians to do the same as well as community members going to their local public libraries and requesting that such a program be offered.

  • Rooms To Go & TD Bank: Be forthright with customers
    RoomsToGo offers 4-year interest-free (TD Bank) financing for purchases from its stores. While making timely payments to avoid the more than 20 percent interest (after a 4-year period), TD Bank IMPOSES trumped-up late fees every other month. RoomsToGo and TD Bank must cease this fraudulent practice or make the public aware that such purchases are not interest-free.

  • Stop publishing the names of mass murderers
    With our voracious appetite for news, I believe we're encouraging these mass killers to one-up each other by publishing their names and backgrounds, thus allowing them to become infamous.
