• Solve the Fiscal Cliff Now!
    We ask that the President of the United States of America, Barack Obama, immediately call an emergency session of Congress to solve the Fiscal Cliff before the New Year, and that he resolve to keep Congress in session through the holidays if necessary until the crisis is resolved. We also ask that the President also resolve not to punt the issue down the road. This fiscal cliff will result in a second recession and the loss of millions of American Jobs if it is not solved now. It will make deep cuts to Medicare and raise taxes on the Middle Class if it is not resolved now. We simply cannot afford another do-nothing Congress. We the American people who stand to lose our livelihoods if this issue is not resolved, demand that this issue be resolved now, and that Congress remain in an emergency session of congress until it is resolved.

  • Petition to Stop Raining Death with Flying Robots
    "The Bureau of Investigative Journalism reports that from June 2004 through mid-September 2012, available data indicate that drone strikes killed 2,562 - 3,325 people in Pakistan, of whom 474 - 881 were civilians, including 176 children. TBIJ reports that these strikes also injured an additional 1,228 - 1,362 individuals." - From a Stanford/NYU study Killing and injuring civillians by drone strike is surrending any moral high ground in the struggle against terrorism. It incites terror and provokes innocents to hatred. This cannot be the will of the US Citizenry.

  • Supervised visitation without electronics
    My petition is about not allowing electronics by the parent or children in a supervised visit. I have conducted many supervised visitations where the parents bring in their electronics and are on them the whole visit and the children are playing on these devices. I feel this is a big issue; because parents are trying to get their children back, but are not communicating with their children. Instead they answer their cell phones or play games on their devices while the child does the same thing. The supervised visit is only an hour and I feel parents and children can live without electronics for an hour. The only exception to this is if they have to have a cell phone for work purposes only.

  • Stop GOP Obstructionism In The U.S. Congress
    This petition is designed to send a strong message to the obstructionist GOP members of Congress. We wish to put these public servants on notice as their employers, that this behavior must stop now, or expect to be voted out in the next election cycle.

  • Make national elections more problem free and voter friendly in all states .
    Here in the Northwest, we have mail in ballots for all our elections sent to us weeks in advance, where we can read the issues and vote comfortably at home at our leisure and return by mail or dropping off by a deadline for counting. Sadly, many other states have various rules, times, restrictions, abuse of voters with intimidation, technical issues, faulty machines, long lines outside after working people maybe work all day, disabled, ill, lack transportation, unreasonable ID requirements, etc. Pass a natinal voting standard to be used by all states in future national elections for congress , senate and president, that will encourage voter participation by being more voter friendly with adequate adequate safeguards against abuse of the voters and honesty and accuracy of results that are varifiable .

  • Make North Carolina Frack-Free
    Please sign to urge the NC General Assembly to repeal Senate Bill 820 - the Clean Energy and Economic Security Act. If ever there was a bill with a categorically fallacious name, this is it. It will provide neither clean energy nor economic security. First, water contamination WILL occur because the shale field actually pierces the aquifer. Drinking water will be laced with carcinogens. Second, because the shale deposits in Chatham, Lee and Moore counties contain natural gas reserves of less than five years, as estimated by the NC State geologist, the alleged economic boom will usher in a bust within five years. Moreover, fewer than 400 jobs per year will be provided, and most of these will be filled with wildcatters from other fracking states. Fracking is a 24-7 nightmare. There is non-stop noise; entire roads are destroyed; entire communities are disrupted. Please repeal Senate Bill 820. Keep NC frack-free.

  • Do your part to stop Climate Change!
    If we don't take huge steps to stop CLIMATE CHANGE, it will be too late to build energy solutions. My students started Kids 4 Hydrogen to get 55,000 Californians to sign a wait list to purchase hydrogen fuel cell cars in the year 2015. By getting people to agree to purchase a car (no obligation or money down), we can build the hydrogen infrastructure needed to fuel these cars. More info at www.kids4hydrogen.org.
