My son sustained a traumatic brain injury requiring an expensive stay in the ICU, trauma care and many, many CT scans of his head. Now, as a result of "budget" cuts, he no longer qualifies for AHCCCS....! Lack of this benefit causes increased burden on patient, families and encourages non-compliance with medical treatment. We are calling on our governor to return the needed health care benefit to the people, before the health care crisis is out of control...

This petition has been started to lead to the total discontinuation of the manufacture of MSG (Monosodium Glutamate). For anyone with migraines, this is the fastest trigger to start a migraine. My wife has had many a migraine after knowingly (and unknowingly) ingesting something with MSG in it. Chinese and Japanese foods are the biggest culprit. Migraine sufferers, beware!!!

The world is getting warmer and greenhouse gases from fossil fuels are contributing significantly to this effect. This year has been the hottest on record for the U.S. and the thirteen warmest years for the planet have all occurred since 1998. Although difficult to prove for individual cases, recent droughts, temperature records, and extremely intense tornadoes and hurricanes are predicted by climate models and may be attributed to climate change.

Disclose tax returns for the past 12 years

Since we have had two presidents shot one of which died, and a congresswoman who is injured for life, plus Columbine and other schools where there were mass shootings, it seems to me time to ban the assault weapons.

WE ALL HAVE THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO GO ABOUT OUR CASUAL AND DAILY LIFE WITHOUT FEAR OF GETTING OUR LIFE SNUFFED OUT FOR NO REASON. APPROPRIATE LAWS ARE NECESSARY TO KEEP WEAPONS OF WAR AND THEIR ACCESSORIES OUT OF THE HANDS OF CIVILIANS AND MISFITS!

Congress will not pass anything that has to do with raising taxes, how do they expect to pay for anything. Congress does not want the Federal Government to pay for anything. How do they expect to move our country out of this hole? We need congress to hold their breath and become bipartisan and work together. Lets tell congress to get their act together or we will vote them out.

Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes purchased 6,000 rounds of ammunition online in the weeks leading up to his militaristic assault at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. According to Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said, "All ammunition he possessed, he possessed legally." If recent history is a guide, this mass shooting is unlikely to change political sentiment about guns rights and gun control in any lasting way. Previous shooting rampages, like those at Columbine High School and Virginia Tech, produced only brief calls for stricter gun laws which ultimately fell silent to the protests of the NRA.

The Social Security Administration needs to be examined by the House Oversight Committee. This government agency does not serve the interests of the American public and is an enemy of senior Americans. The draconian penalties of multiple 10% cumulative penalties over the lifetime of citizens which no public or private organization, including the IRS, is permitted to extract from any client is outrageous..Compared to any private for-profit insurer, the SSA is the worst provider of health care. We must never permit the SSA to administer any health care insurance and certainly not a single payer program.

It’s time we return to government of, by and for the people--not government of, bought, and paid for by special interests. The job of a Wall Street banker is to get a good return on their investment, and unfortunately, they’ve taken those skills to Washington--and now the presidency. Mitt Romney is attending an elite London fundraiser--$25,000 to $75,000 per plate--hosted by the CEOs at the center of the LIBOR scandal threatening our already fragile economy. Executives of at least three other banks under investigation are co-chairs of the fundraiser, according to invitations obtained by The Washington Post. At the same time, too many Americans are falling out of the middle class when they are working hard to climb the ladder into it. In fact, middle-class workers have seen their incomes drop by nearly 8 percent in three years and their wealth disappear by a staggering 40%. We believe politicians should work for us, not their corporate sponsors. It is time for Mitt Romney to fully disclose his donors--and how much they are giving to his campaign. As a Clean Elections candidate in Maine, every $5 qualifying contribution I collect to earn public financing—and all my campaign expenses—are fully disclosed. Shouldn't we expect someone running for the highest office in the land to at least disclose how much money he is getting from bank CEOs linked to LIBOR corruption? If the name of someone donating $5 should be disclosed, isn't it time someone donating $5,000 or $5,000,000 should, too?
