Pay raises for state employees at the MVAThis pettition is about getting pay raises for state employees that work for the MVA. We have not had a raise in over 5 yrs and that includes a COLA (cost of living) raise. Its sad that as employee of the MVA, you cant even qualify for a one bedroom apartment in the state of Maryland! Billions of dollars are being used for other things that are not needed like a memorial on the eastern shore for the state, why? You have to pay your workers especially if they have a security clearance!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by shawnta eldlridge

Stop Tennessee from executing Abu AliAbu Ali has been denied his final appeal by the U.S. Supreme Court and now faces execution, even though no court has ever stated that he received a fair trial. Lionell Barrett, Abu Ali's defense counsel, and one of the most prominent criminal defense lawyers in Tennessee's history, has said, "Abu Ali is on death row because of me. I failed him." The prosecutor lied to Abu Ali's attorney when he stated that a previous conviction of Abu Ali resulted from "a turf war in prison between two gangs as to who would control the drug trade in the prison." In fact, the previous conviction resulted from Abu Ali being victimized by sexual predators. Mitigating evidence that was not presented to the trial jury includes Abu Ali's lifelong abuse by others which has resulted in his suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Abu Ali was wearing a wool black coat at the time of the murder. Even though copious quantities of blood were splattered in the vicinity of the victim, no blood was found on Abu Ali's coat by the TBI crime lab. Abu Ali has an impeccable prison record, has pursued educational opportunities, and has excelled in leadership of other prisoners. The only hope for Abu Ali's life to be saved is for Governor Haslam to commute his death sentence.

Eric Thorson it is time to audit Bain and other Wall Street IRA scams.Bain deposits stock within an IRA account. The value may exceed the legal limit of 30K because sets controls the price (basis) through insider knowledge. It then, after leveraging the target company, sets a dividend that shifts assets into the stocks in its IRA and then sells off to an unsuspecting public. Result is a major reduction in taxes, while sheltering massive insider gains.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Fernandes
