  • NBC: Tell Donald Trump You're Fired!
    Time has come for NBC to retire Donald Trump from national television. His bizarre behavior and callous disregard for much of the citizens of the United States must no longer be rewarded by NBC with a national TV show. NBC should not need any incentive to do the right thing and drop The Apprentice but if you do need an incentive, all signers of this petition promise to boycott purchases from any advertisers of The Apprentice. Please do the right thing for the country and fire the Donald.

  • Tell Congress: No Cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security and No Tax Cuts for the Rich
    Congress will be back in Washington, D.C., on November 13 and they’ll be making high-stakes decisions on jobs, the Bush tax cuts for the richest 2%, and whether to cut Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid before the end of the year. Corporations and millionaires—who spent record amounts trying to buy the election for Mitt Romney—are going to be spending tens of millions on a full frontal assault in the halls of Congress to keep their special perks. Working families didn’t vote for further attacks on the middle class. Tell your Congress members: No cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security and no more tax cuts for the richest 2%.

  • Fighting Texas's War on Drunk and Drugged Driving
    In 2009 Texas changed the mandatory blood draw laws on fatality accidents. Leaving it up to the discretion of the investigating officer to decide. On November 11, 2010 my daughter Samantha Jill Rogers 17, and her best friend Delaney Rhea Mancil 15 were killed in an auto accident by a driver on the wrong side of the road. Our lives are forever changed. Because of an inexperienced Texas Trooper no blood was drawn. For which he was reprimanded for his handling of the investigation. To this day this person has gone on to cause numerous more accidents while under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Hit and run, failure to stop and render aide causing severe injury to the woman he hit at 94 miles an hour while under the influence. He was charged with 2 counts of criminally negligent homicide in my daughters case and was no billed twice. He was just reissued his drivers license in September of 2011. This man took the life of our daughters, graduation, college, weddings, grandchildren yet to come because of one change in the law. Samantha was going to be a flight nurse, a strait A student and talented athlete. Her friend Delaney chose a career to become a pediatric oncologist. She also a straight A student and due to graduate early. We are calling on our Texas Lawmakers to make mandatory blood draws without a warrant on all drivers involved in accidents causing serious injury or death. I am calling on our lawmakers to give the victims back their rights to justice. I do not believe their rights are being violated by giving blood. If they have nothing to hide they would not worry about it.

  • Walgreens Should Break Ties with Donald Trump
    Donald Trump is initiating negative behavior and speech in regards to our country. If someone of his stature and following can Tweet "Start a Revolution and bring it to the White House" to millions of people at a time of national divide, that isn't someone we need to do business with. That is a statement that some people will take literally, and it will perpetuate violence. This isn't about Republican, Democrat, or Independent. This is strictly common sense. In this past election, we saw what our voices can accomplish, and we should continue to use them to bring about change.

  • Members of Congress who vote to cut Social Security and Medicare should not be allowed privileged...
    Congressmen who vote on Social Security and Medicare cuts should not be allowed have privileged health insurance because they work for us. So if they cut our benefits, they should not be allowed to have special insurance and perks. They should live off of social security like their constituents do.

  • President Obama: Please Replace Timothy Geithner
    Now that Obama is in his second term it is time for him to change course from shoring up the banks and Wall Street to listening to the Nobel Laureates. Many of us knew that the first mistake President Obama made was appointing Geithner and Summers. We have stayed faithful to him despite his vicissitudes. Now for the people's sake he should let Geithner, et al., go and appoint Joseph Stiglitz or Paul Krugman as his Secretary of the Treasury. We would also suggest Robert Reich, who's been brutally but truthfully critical of Obama's policies, but loyal to the people and the Democrats. It is time to emulate FDR and put the government to work for its citizens.
