Abuse of powers by authorities in Brooksville, FloridaBrooksville City Council members and the local police chief have used one of the oldest tactics in the fight for justice and civil rights. They are using the police force to intimidate a local candidate for city council. Going after her daughter and an 87 years old friend; to make a federal case out of a clerical error! And with help from the local Housing Board, staff, executive director, project manager, the state prosecutor, local judges and the public defender office to rail road Mr. Boston for running for a position on the city council. He is running against a candidate that has held the seat for the 17 years over time. And is running unopposed. His goal is to tear down the local low income housing project, where Mr. Boston live and sell it to the local developer fordevelopment. Moving hundred of democrats out of the city and their natural birth place.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Paul Boston

Congress Term LimitsI am requesting that the government enact a two term limit on the Senate and House of Representatives positions. For too long our policies and government structure have directly opposed the type of people we want and need to enter into these political positions. We are incentivizing the wrong type of people into office by not having term limits. Currently when people run for these political offices they know that once elected, all they need to do is manipulate public opinion to keep their job. Instead of sitting here and blaming each of the non-performing individual sitting in Congress without any results, we need to enact these term limits as doing such will drastically and forever change the type of people we are attracting. We are executing the textbook case of insanity by thinking that we can change the "game" by only swapping out the "players". The current "players" are only in these positions because the current "game" is attractive to them. We need to attract individuals who are willing to sacrifice their lives and current livelihood to come serve the greater good. Without term limits, we will always attract the bottom feeders seeking the easy road. Please sign this petition and pass along to all you know. If this passes, this would be the piece of legislation that has the biggest positive impact on the American Government system since the beginning of our great country.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dan McDermott

Need to Regulate News HeadlinesMcCarthyism is not about the content of a statement--it's about bypassing a Constitutional regulation which would demand generic headlines be supplied based on the "subject' or "issue" and ban statements that contain neither attested facts, standards based evaluations as bona fides for being permitted to use value terms or a statement of science.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Michael Cerello

Campaign Contribution Deficit TaxThe absurd amount of money flowing into our Political system is not benefiting anyone but the networks and the Wealthy. I am asking that citizens united need not be overturned but taxed at 30% rate that will pay off our deficit in no time. This will allow the candidates to still raise money and show that they are helping the country while fundraising. They can show how much money they have raised to help the country and be proud of helping their country!4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ricahrd Howe

Make Voting Accessible and Convenient in OhioVoters in Summit County can expect long lines, confusion about times, and where they can vote during the upcoming early voting period for the 2012 election. That’s because the Summit County Board of Elections is deadlocked on extending hours for early voting and choosing an early voting location that is accessible and convenient for voters. It doesn’t have to be this way though. The Board of Elections can vote again and if one of the Republican members switches their vote, Summit County voters will have more flexibility and accessibility making early voting easy and convenient.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Fighting for Ohio Jobs

illegal harrasment over our countries phone network.With the advent of phone calls over the internet this allows companies to use bogus phone numbers to get on the countries phone networks to harass residents with illegal advertising.

These numbers can be blocked by local phone providers but it needs a bill passed by Congress. Contact your congressmen demanding that they do somethimg about the abuse of the U.S. telephone system.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Stephen Stuczynski

Apple: Start Making Devices In The USAAfter admitting that the foreign manufacturers and assemblers contracted to make its devices engage in inhumane labor practices, Apple has done little to definitively address the problem. Granted, such inaction may have to do with the limited influence Apple has over the labor policies of its contractors and the regulatory regimes of foreign countries. However, this is no excuse for Apple's continued use of what effectively amounts to slave labor to make iPhones, iPads and other gadgets, especially as millions remain jobless in the United States, whose consumer market is largely responsible for making Apple so successful. We are calling upon CEO Tim Cook to make good on his promise to address Apple's labor problems - and reinvest in the consumers of its products - by bringing those jobs back the United States, where labor protections and industry regulations will prevent the ongoing abuse that is rampant in overseas labor markets.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Stanford
