• Breastfeeding Zone
    Breastfeeding is legal in the US, however woman are still being demanded to stop and told that it is indecent exposure. While I was nursing my daughter I was asked to leave a restaurant because a patron felt uncomfortable with watching me nurse.

  • Student Loan Forbearance - capitalized interest at 9%
    At long last, after 23 yrs I have now repaid, to Sallie Mae, the total amount of my student loans I originally borrowed and more. The remaining loan balance I am now paying is the capitalized interest that was added to my balance because of my many long years of financial hardship due to the low salary levels of my profession in higher education (librarian). My loans dont qualify for ANY forgiveness programs - nothing related to teaching in public institutions, or , any forgiveness programs put in place by President Obama because in part they are very old loans, combination of private and federal loans consolidated, and librarians in higher education do not meet criteria for those forgiveness programs targeted to education, and whatever reason...I just think this is wrong - I have repaid every penny of my original loan balance and more at this point. I think that this remaining balance that is created by capitalized interest because of financial hardship/forbearance should be forgiven. I feel like I am paying for the forgiveness programs the President put in place over the past year or so - I have repaid my loans to Sallie Mae. It is not right that there are people like me still struggling to repay our loans after decades and we cant get any assistance - how many others are in my position? What do you think? Sonja

  • TEXANS FOR THE UNION OF THE UNITED STATES
    I would like to star a petition to go against the petition that wants to secede from the United States of America. There are people in Texas that do not wish to secede from this great nation of ours and we are just fed up with all this crazy talk of seceding.

  • Force GOP to Renounce Allen West
    Allen West called 80 Democratic Congressmen Communists, and since they are elected representatives, he therefore called hundreds of thousands of Democratic voters Communists. The leaders of his party, the GOP, by their silence have condoned this America destroying civil war baiting atrocity. We must force them to disavow this hateful unAmerican fascist statement or risk complete collapse of civility and the certain demise of America.

  • Action: Our military women need your help!
    The service women who defend our country deserve the same insurance coverage for reproductive health services as others who rely on the federal government for their health care. To force service women who suffer rape or incest to pay for abortion care is discriminatory and unjust. The Senate needs to ensure that the amendment sponsored by Senator Jeanne Shaheen is part of the National Defense Authorization Act. Military women deserve the same reproductive health coverage that civilian workers have.

  • Randy, Bring jobs back to America
    Under Randy Stephenson's leadership, The American Telephone and Telegraph company known as AT&T has been decimating its technical workforce while hiring for jobs out of the country. Shouldn't American customers be able to speak to their own countrymen that they can relate to and understand? AT&T gambled 4 billion dollars due to poor decision making by Randy. Why should American workers and customers pay the price, Isn't it time for a multi billion dollar company getting massive tax breaks start investing back into the American economy?

  • Electronic voter fraud Ohio 2004 Foiled 2012?
    .Whether true or not this story has the potential to undermine all faith in the electoral system and the rule of law. If people believe this story then it will be easy to see any unexpected result as fraudulent. So it needs to be investigated and doubts laid to rest.
