Papa John's is declaring "Obamacare" too expensive, so owner, John Schnatter, who's personal net worth is $600 million, has decided to cut the hours of employees to below the 30 hour threshold to keep them ineligible for healthcare benefits. The cost is estimated at $0.15/per pizza to the company that makes $1.22 Billion in annual revenues (Health care would be 0.006% of their revenues, or approximately $8 million) Meanwhile, Papa John's is able to give away $2 million pizzas, retail value at $20 million.

This petition was created to bring to light the violation of the Oath of Office all obstructionists committed when they fought against all of Obama's administrations appointments and bills. The oath of office all Representatives take is as follows: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God." Any GOP member or Tea Party Republican who entered into office and publicly declared their primary mission was to stop Obama's administration is in direct violation of their oaths, as they purposefully entered into office with, "mental reservation (and/)or purpose of evasion." By violating their oaths, they have given up their rights to represent the people of their respective states and should be immediately ejected from office, without benefits or pay.

To put more money in the polititions hands, California State has imposed a new Fire Prevention Fee (NOT A TAX, THET SAY) upon habitable stuctures or parcels in what they call the responsibility areas. These fees (or really taxes) go up to $150.00 per year. I live in a 3 bedroom house and just paid $115.00 for this bogus tax. I am outraged. Jerry Brown approved this. I want to protest this effort to further strap the public for our government's failure to control their spending. I am calling upon our legislature to overturn this fee.

Arkansas County Judge William Adams beat his 16 year old daughter, which was taped by his daughter. He has now returned to to the bench. He did not think he did anything wrong. Help show our youth he was wrong and abuse of anyone will not be tolerated!

Senator Mitch McConnell, having failed to complete an agenda which would be considered treasonous under any other system, had dishonored his fellow party members in the Senate, having therefore lost all credibility as their leader. This petition seeks his removal as Minority Leader in that hallowed chamber.

A piece on NPR predicted that President Obama is likely to approve the pipeline in the name of energy security and perhaps jobs. Given the energy savings projected from vehicle MPG savings, this is exactly the wrong message to send to the American people and the world. Instead we need to implement the recommendations contained in Amory Lovins' "REINVENTING FIRE: Bold Business Solutions for the New Energy Era".

Arizona has a rodeo that allows animal abuse.This needs to be banned.This has been reported in our news.

People move to make life better for themselves and their families. Most families moved here in the past for the same reason that American immigrants move here today - to raise a family in a land of freedom and opportunity. But the current patchwork of policies and programs is mismanaged and broken, and it breaks up families. In order to do our part to welcome newcomers, we need to make America the most attractive place for the best, brightest, and hardest working people from around the world. That’s why America deserves a common sense immigration process, one that includes a roadmap to citizenship for the 11 million undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States.

While we recognize that Texas is a great state, characterized by its independent citizens, there are many citizens that do not support secession from the United States. A petition has been filed with the White House for Texas secession that has reached the 25,000 signature goal it needed to be looked at by the White House. Although it is extremely doubtful that Texas would be granted the approval to secede by such a petition, we would still like to recognize that there are many people in Texas that feel differently, whether we agree with the current administration or not. Rick Perry as the President of the Republic of Texas does not sound good to many of us. Plus, we recognize that things like NASA and federal defense contracts contribute quite a bit to the economy we like to brag so much about. Please sign so other voices in this debate are heard.

As a Gerontology student, I am deeply troubled by the largely ignored reports of discrimination and abuse that Gay elders have been subjected to in Nursing Homes and Assisted Living facilities.

The Senate filibuster has become a tactic of tyranny by the minority. Our system is rule by majority. The Senate rules should be changed to prevent the use of the filibuster to frustrate the will of the majority.
