Listen to economists. Let the tax cuts expire. Just deal with the budget.

The Santa Clara Valley Water Distict Board has voted to fluoridate our water. This is about freedom of choice. The FDA classifies fluoride as a drug and you need a prescription to take it (except topically like toothpaste, but even that you spit out). So why would you want it in our water when it adversely affects many others like hypo-thyroidism, kidney disease, osteoporosis, children's IQ, and dental fluorosis? Campbell voted against fluoridation 40 years ago and prevented SJ water from putting toxic waste into the water for everyone. Please help to do this again?

Making doctors accountable for the mistakes they make and how their mistakes affect the lives of everyday people. Yes i was personally affected.

Main issue: The 'Star Spangled Banner', while stirring, is primarily directed towards a symbol of our nation as opposed to the substance of America and it's dreams. As well: 1) America the Beautiful is easier to sing for most people, and is much more melodic and poetic. 2) In a time of terrible fighting with more dangerous weaponry, think it is time to stop singing lustily of "bombs bursting in air" and consider "Oh beautiful for patriot dream that sees beyond the years..." On the day of 9/11, I was teaching music and asked my students to sing some of the songs of the US; we did not have a piano to accompany us, but the students sang quietly and reverently several of our patriotic songs. I thought then, as I think now, that our nation needed a better anthem than one which is primarily associated with football games.

my petition is about banning water bottles that take so much energy from our oil and our fossil fuels. my ban would help lower prices on gasoline and other petroleum by products. this has personally effected me by having budget cuts to my moms spending since her car take over 100$ to fill up her SUV. water bottles also pollute our earth and recycling dosent even happen only 10% of all water bottles are recycled most of all of the water bottles go to a mountain in india as you can clearly see that water bottles are a big waste.

People in government who make decisions where exclusive loyalty to the US is required.I'm particularly concerned about members of congress who retain their dual citizenship with Israel, while voting on foreign aid and military and diplomatic support. One cannot have loyalty to more than one country at a time.

There is a loophole in current law that prevents tribal authorities, who have jurisdiction over crimes committed on Indian territory by Indians, from having any authority over non-Indian male abusers. That’s despite the fact that non-Indian men account for an estimated 80 percent of rapes of Indian women, and that the astronomical rate of abuse of Indian women is well documented by the federal government. This is wrong. And there is a provision in the Violence against Women Act that would change this. But according to a Huffington Post report, it’s proving the last sticking point for House Republican leadership. The version of the bill passed by the House did not include the expanded protections for Native, immigrant and LGBT victims, Please sign this to urge the house to pass the Senate version of the bill, which does include these provisions.

Citizens can subscribe to a 'Do Not Call' registry to prevent unsolicited phone calls from telemarketers. Shouldn't they also have the option of preventing unsolicited advertizements through the U.S. mail? Currently, the only way to stop receiving junk mail is to pay for it; but we should not have to pay to end junk mail.

When I was a high earner I learned that after I made $119,000. I didn't have to make any more payments to SS and Medicare. Why did I get that benefit when I was earning so much more and could afford my share. Now that we need more SS revenue, this entitlement should be eliminated.

We look bad to the world, who must be questioning whether democracy is really the answer!
