Create a National gas-capThe gasoline prices are sky rocketing to out of control numbers. These fuel price's move daily due to perceived costs not real costs. Most middle class americans are affected greatly by these prices which lower the standard of living considerably and the quality of life for each household. The prices are way out of hand; almost four dollars a gallon. We're calling for our government to mandate a gasoline cap on prices which is floating and controlled by real effects not perceived.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Christopher Carr

Add green roofing to existing buildings in MinnesotaWe have a lot of flat roofed buildings covered in tar shingles or metal. Adding green roofing will make the building more insulated from heat and cold, and improves air quality and storm water retention. Not to mention people can perhaps enjoy green spaces in urban areas. Here is more information about this process: http://www.greenroofs.com/Greenroofs101/economic.htm6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Teresa Klostreich

Remove tax-exempt status for Churches that urge members to vote for a given candidateChurches have power over their members, and can be a significant force in an election. It is clear, for example, that some churches pressure their members to vote for a given candidate based on her/his alignment with their particular teaching. However, the involvement of any tax-exempt organization in the political process is strictly forbidden by the IRS: "...it may not participate in any campaign activity for or against political candidates."42 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Edwin F Meyer II

Help Prevent Medicaid Cuts In MaineMaine's decision to sue to drop people from Medicaid puts us on the front line in the battle for basic healthcare coverage for those of us who can't afford healthcare on our own. I have a family member that will be directly affected by Maine's attempt to drop people from Medicaid. She will not be able to afford her anti-seizure medication on her own leaving her very vulnerable life threatening grand mal seizures. This is an issue that might have consequences for the whole country while we fight to get everyone affordable healthcare. So lets show our elected officials that we do have a voice and will not be manipulated into giving up what the whole country has fought so hard to secure.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Boysenberry Payne
