American Citizen's Voter's Day it's our rightWith all the talk about voter repression, states limiting extra voting hours at the polls, more voter's having to come up with more ID's our poor and senior's, and the disabled. I feel it's time to stop this. It is every American's right to vote for who they want. Lets give American's a free day like our other holiday's and make it easier for everyone to get to the polls to vote. There's no excuse, voter fraud is less than .00004% in this country. Let's give the elections back to the people where it belongs..1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kathleen Scheiner

Have fact checkers at the presidential and vice-presidential debatesVoters must know what is true before they can make decisions that are in their own best interest and that of our country. It would be best if the fact checking is done during the commercials and then before the next round of debates, the fact-checkers' findings could be read without comment. This would be much more powerful than reading about it in the newspapers the next day.264,721 of 300,000 SignaturesCreated by Vicki Meyer

Request Governor Walker Sign Grant for Exchange Provisions of the Health Care GrantThe US Department of Health and Human Services is awarding Grants to help states build Health Care Exchanges with other states. Wisconsin's Governor Walker has refused to participate, in hopes that Obama's Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 will be overturned by Republicans winning the November election. Wisconsin is one of 16 states with Republican Governor's trying to block implementation. Wisconsite's health care is at risk. We risk losing Senior Care, an affordable Medicare Part D alternative, funding for Badger Care for low income families and those who have insurable health conditions, and more. Personally, I have few low-cost prescription drugs and am enrolled in Senior Care for $30 a year. Medicare Part D will cost me substantially more if Senior Care is dropped.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nancy F McDonald

Affordable education for our childrenWe all want to provide a good education for our children and its discouraging to see what a college education costs. The obvious reason is because of the-- availability of government backed loans--reduce or eliminate this and you will see tuition come down--supply and demand--forgiving student loans for taxpayers to pay is not the answer. Reduce the supply, and costs will come down.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by nick petitte

Consult us about warWe are concerned we will be pulled in a war with Iran that can easily escalate to the use of nuclear weapons. All it will take is Israel to provoke an attack. War game scenarios predict dramatic escalation within the region from this point, as well as attacks in Europe and the US.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Barbara Tinker

Making Organic Food Cost Competitive With Conventional Produce Through Changes of the Farm BillI, like millions of Americans, struggle to find a balance between eating healthy, and having enough money to be able to afford the other things we need to have an enjoyable life. My petition argues that we for too long have used the Farm Bill to subsidize the production of corn when the Farm Bill was intended to figure out how to subsidize farmers. We currently have less than 10% of the funds go towards Organic, Sustainable, and producers of the like. I want all organic farmers to have the chance to obtain in the united states an annual, renewable, 10k+ loan to help scale-up their small, local, organic farms to allow for organic food to become more cost competitve with conventional Produce.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Doyle

Upholding voting rights for allI wish to march on the US Supreme Court to get all local voter ID laws not recognizing proof or residency such as home, apartment, student ID, or tax address thrown out or put on hold for the duration of 2012. These laws do not recognize the civil right of all citizens to vote.30 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bruce Wallman
