To urge all Alliance for Retired Americans members, their families, friends or everyone subject to the GPO/WEP to increase their efforts to make sure the Congress of the United States enacts legislation to repeal the Government Pension Offset and the Windfall Elimination Provision from Social Security Act.

R. 82 Social Security Act of 2023 This Petition is updated periodically to reflect current legislation that seeks full repeal of the WEP/GPO.

On December 30, 2011, Ms. Glenda G. Lewis of Cocoa, Florida was found battered and dead lying in her bed with her violent and abusive ex-boyfriend, Calvin Lamal Williams. Her family reported that weeks before her death, she had filed for a domestic violence injunction, but was repeatedly threatened by Williams to rescind it. Sadly, she did. Days later, she was dead. At the time of Glenda’s death, he was an absconder (his whereabouts unknown to authorities) and was wanted for a probation violation regarding another victim of his domestic violence. Outrage and disbelief has taken the place of grief and sadness by Glenda’s family and friends. We are desperate for answers to why her ex-boyfriend, a man with an extensive history of crime and violence, had not been charged with any crime regarding her “suspicious death” nearly 12 years ago. Why else would an otherwise healthy 40-year-old woman be found dead in her own bedroom in which her furniture was totally destroyed; if foul play was not involved? The message that was sent by Detective Glenn Wade was that you must be a LIVE victim of domestic violence to get charges filed, because once your abuser MURDERS you, you cease to have any rights for justice. Once you are DEAD, you no longer have a voice and your killer can get away with murder. We, the family and friends of Glenda Lewis, are her voice. Please hear our cries for justice. Domestic violence is not a private matter and does not affect the Lewis family solely. It is a public epidemic and if we are not careful with the progress of this case, none of us will ever be safe.

Two cycle gas leafblowers burn a gas-oil mix that is highly air polluting. Two cycle gas motorcycles and other vehicles have been banned from our roads for decades. Why do we tolerate the use of hundreds/thousands of two cycle gas leafblowers every day in San Jose?

The word democracy does not appear in The Constitution nor does it appear in The Declaration of independence. America is NOT nor was it ever intended to be a Democracy. We cannot spread Democracy by war all over the world if we are not a Democracy! All too often in our political system we fight with left and right, it's time we all stand in unity as a Republic, the way our forefathers intended...one nation under God

Yes, it is about preserving in the wild these magnificent animals who are in fact returned natives here in North America and contribute positively to the ecosystems they inhabit when not subject to the unjust and dishonest "squeeze plays" of corrupt officials & disrespectful officials.

The Coast Redwood is an endangered species, and needs to be recognized as such, and allowed to regain its original range.

I am beseeching all fellow beings, please petition YOUTUBE to block cock fighting, dog fighting, horse tripping and other deliberate acts of cruelty using animals as unwitting entertainment, the more shocking and cruel, the more hits-the more hit, the more YOUTUBE benefits with advertising dollars; the advertisers do not realize that they are inadvertently supporting horrific cruelty.

Our tagline at SODAC is "off the streets and on their feet." Our goal is to provide street children and vulnerable children with rehabilitation, support and resettlement services. Right now our activities are primarily in Kampala, Uganda. We have a home and center where children from all over the slums come and participate in our activities and have a chance to enjoy life as a child. Our activities include educating them, giving the shelter, teaching them how to sing dance, acrobatics and other activities that we can participate in as a family and across African Countries. Currently there are 16 boys who live and sleep in the home. There are more than 50 other children who come from the streets and slums that we help. These are children who lives on the streets with no one to take care of them and with no one to cater for his/her welfare, such children are abandoned, rejected and neglected and society considers him/her as a detriment to the community or dangerous to society. Such children might be victims of war, natural disaster, and domestic violence, parents died of HIV/AIDS or absolute poverty in the family.

Hospitals have a responsibility to the public to make sure that doctors are practicing good medicine, through the process of fair and unbiased peer review. However, Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte abused this process to discriminate against Dr. Ron Virmani, who is a U.S. citizen, because he was born in India. On September 1, 1995, they kicked him out of the hospital after a very secretive sham internal peer review, labeling 24 of his patient charts "problematic". An expert of North Carolina Medical Board stated that Dr. Virmani met the standard of care. Dr. Virmani lost his ob-gyn career and his professional standing. He and his family suffered tremendously for 16 long years and still continue to suffer.

We elect people to go into state and federal government to represent us and our interests. They don't! Too many of our elected representatives act in the interest of corporate America, whose self interest is international, We are finally holding our elected officials accountable. We are watching. It's them-- the corporations or us-- the people. Stand up for the American people or we will act at the polls! We have had enough!
