My brother is one of thousands of soldiers who suffers from post traumatic stress disorder after returning home from the front lines in Afghanistan. He, just like many other soldiers has not only had a hard time coming forward to reach out for help but has also received little to no help from the Veteran Affairs or the VA. Our soldiers need OUR help. Soldiers should undergo a mental health evaluation once coming home and again every six months until their military contracts are up. Along with, every soldier diagnosed with PTSD must receive therapy from either the VA or from an outside source at the VA's expense. The war doesn't end when they get home. It's our job to help those who serve for us.

The War On Drugs has cost millions of lives and trillions of taxpayer dollars, and has accomplished next to nothing. Tell President Obama to end the War On Drugs now!

I am a struggling single father that has 50% custody of my son and I am required by the state to pay $240.00 a month in child support, while his mother sits with no job and collects cash-aid, SSI, food-stamps, and child support from two different fathers of her two sons. I do not think parents that have 50/50 custody should have to pay the other parent to be a half time mother or father.

Representative Scott Garrett wants to deny us the money we need to rebuild. Our president and our governor have said we need this money! Help me tell him, "Let's rebuild New Jersey."

Wall Street, banks, multinational corporations etc. and their CEO's are not held accountable to the same laws that the rest of us must abide by. Their illegal activities do cost lives as well as livelihoods, homes, jobs and more. We must take action to demand that the American 'Justice' system hold them accountable - not simply with token fines but with jail time.

As we all know, Chick-Fil-A is a hateful organization. They have openly spoken out against the rights of LGBT citizens and have donated to organizations who promote beliefs similar to those of CFA. Unfortunately, my high school still serves Chick-Fil-A in their West Cafeteria.

Wanting GMO foods to be labeled so consumers can execute a choice on what foods they eat and purchase!

Macy's is keeping its stores open for 67 hrs continuously leading up to Christmas, forcing many employees to forsake their holiday...all for the sake of commercialism and corporate greed.

The Federal minimum wage should be adjusted for each company according to the size of their revenue stream. As corporations grow in size, they become virtually impossible for smaller business to compete against, mostly due to their vastly lower overhead and the efficiency of their acquisition pipelines. To IMPROVE competition in almost every industry, companies should be required to pay HIGHER minimum wages based on the size of its revenues, with very large companies being required to pay as much as 50% higher wages than businesses with fewer than 10 employees.

I am currently unemployed and suffering like many others who cannot find employment in his/her field. I have a BA as well as a Master's degree and cannot find work as a Guidance Counselor, yet I am still somehow paying my student loans. Although the Student Loan Forgiveness Act of 2012 has helped many it has not helped myself and many like myself because we have already attempted to consolidate our loans. Therefore the Act listed above does not apply to us or help us. This petition is to stop students from paying there student loans while unemployed including not paying the interest which adds up to thousands of dollars monthly.

Social Security should NOT be a Bargaining Chip in these Fiscal Cliff negotiations. It represents A LOT of Money and Republicans have NOT ONLY been Against SSI From The Beginning, they have Also been trying to Get That Money from Day One! SSI is a Separate Fund and has NOTHING To DO with The Spending OR Debt being stressed over. It Should NOT Be Included in the Fiscal Cliff Negotiations - Period!

The development of the Keeny's Orchard on the South side of Durham-Dayton Highway and immediately East of the unincorporated community of Durham at 2243 Durham-Dayton Highway. This Development will not only bring in 141 residential lots, but will destroy a very precious source of AG land known as "Valley Loam" at one time this was considered to be the best soil in the State, NOW we KNOW that it is the best Ag soil in the WORLD. Stand with the Community in the fight to keep this Precious land as AG land and more important keep OUR town small, unincorporated, and SAY NO TO THE DURHAM VILLAS DEVELOPMENT. CALL YOU DISTRICT SUPERVISORS AND EXPRESS YOUR DISAGREEMENT WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT!!! http://www.buttecounty.net/Board%20of%20Supervisors.aspx
