• ITs Time For NBC To Say To Donald Trump... "YOU'RE FIRED!"
    The 2012 election will be remembered as one whereby facts were tossed to the wind. As an American my most treasured right is the right to cast a vote and if we depend on the media to assist us in making such an important decision and the media “KNOWINGLY” promotes people who “KNOWINGLY” spread lies, rumors and innuendos it’s time for a change. At the pace we are going can you imagine what the election of 2016 will be like? It’s time for NBC to break all ties to both Donald Trump and Trump Enterprises.

  • PROP 37: Count ALL the Votes!
    Jon Rappoport, investigative journalist, states that OVER A MILLION votes on Prop 37 (the GMO labelling initiative) in CA have gone uncounted to date. Since the margin of "victory" is about 600,000 votes, this means Prop 37 could actually have passed. If we want to do something about this, NOW is the time. This petition seeks ACTION by the CA Secretary of State to count ALL the votes cast on Prop 37. If you cast a vote on Prop 37, make sure it gets counted by signing this petition, requiring the CA Secretary of State to do her job. *** A little background: On November 8, two days after the election, Jon Rappoport found that many votes in California remain uncounted. He decided to try and find out just how many, and contacted the Secretary of State of CA, responsible for elections in the state, who apparently doesn't know. He was informed that all counties in California have been asked, but not ordered, to report in those figures, but it is apparently voluntary. So Rappoport decided to pick the largest counties and called their voter registrar offices and these are the results he obtained: Santa Clara County: 180,000 votes remain uncounted. Orange County: 241,336 votes remain uncounted. San Diego County: 475,000 votes remain uncounted. LA County: 782,658 votes remain uncounted. In other words, in just those four counties, 1.6 million votes remain uncounted. It is still unknown how many other votes are uncounted in other Californian counties. *** About Rappoport: Nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, he has worked as an investigative reporter for 30 years, writing articles on politics, medicine, and health for CBS Healthwatch, LA Weekly, Spin Magazine, Stern, and other newspapers and magazines in the US and Europe. Rappoport has delivered lectures and seminars on global politics, health, logic and creative power to audiences around the world.

  • Changing the Name of Negro Bill Canyon to Grandstaff Canyon
    This is an effort to honor one of Moab's very first settlers, William Grandstaff, by changing the name of Negro Bill Canyon to Grandstaff Canyon. The use of the moniker "negro" is offensive to many people, creating embarrassment for our community. His name should be spelled correctly and his story told, including this unique individual's contribution to history as well as his race.

  • Macy's employment practices with African Americans
    Macy's in the San Diego area has a very low count of African American employees and doesn't plan on hiring any. Sounds like discrimination to me.

  • Ban Filibusters During the 113th Congress
    The Senate's Democratic majority can and should change the rules on the first day of the 113th Congress to ban filibusters for the duration of the 113th Congress. The Republicans have turned the Senate into a dysfunctional minority-ruled body by routine use of filibusters. A democracy cannot function under continued and arbitrary minority rule. The Democratic majority of the Senate needs to act to prevent another minority-ruled Senate session. The rule change should apply for only the 113th Congress. While conservatives are the traditional users of filibusters, progressives may find it necessary to use the filibuster in the future.

  • Equal employment termination notice.
    Employers have to give employees a 2 week notice before terminating employment, unless the termination of is the fault of the employee. E.g. of theft, harassment, or other offenses. It is common practice for an employee to give a 2 week notice before resigning or ending employment, in order to protect the equal right of the employee, employers should have to give at least 2 weeks employment ending notice as well. Personally I think it should be more than 2 weeks notice an employer has to give since it is more difficult to find a place of employment than it is to find employees.
