• Encourage Broadcasting to Back Off on Jokes About Less Intelligent, Ugly, Short and Heavy People
    There has been a great deal of progress in the media to refrain from writing humor about many hurtful jokes, but there is still a way to go. Children watch television. Children get the message it is okay to verbally and physically abuse the named victims.

  • Cancel the first time homebuyer's tax credit payback of 2008
    This was and remains an unfair "credit" payback for thousands who also lost their jobs (as I did), homes, insurances and means of paying back this "credit", I now pay back $600/year for something that the same "credit" offered in 2009/2010 consumers did not have to re-pay, we were guinnea pigs for the real estate market, the government knew we were headed into a recession, had I known I never would have taken it. Please help and sign this petition, yes we agreed to pay this back however through no fault of our own we lost just as much as everyone else did in the following years.

  • Homeowner' Insurance rip-off in Florida!h
    Why is it that there aren't more insurance companies competing for business in Florida? In the homeowner's insurance market rates are leaping higher every year even though a hurricane hasn't hit Florida in seven years. I don't understand what our Republican Gorvernor is doing? He is not demanding or encouraging companies to come to Florida to compete in offering cost effective insurance for Florida residents. It seems as if it doesn't matter that one insurance firm is just hicking prices up in a monopolistic market at the expense of Floridian homeowners, taxpayers and most importantly VOTERS too. I thought Republicans were the party of free enterprise and competition in free markets? Not here!

  • FREE TV FROM THE DIGITAL/CABLE SCAM
    Ever since television went digital, those who do not choose to pay a cable company must endure horrible reception. Are you tired of "digital signal is weak" (blue screen), stuttering dialogue, frozen images? These problems have been happening since the conversion to digital, but the FCC has done nothing to remedy them, and the cable companies are more than happy to let it continue. Tell the FCC to fix this problem!

  • Veteran's right to use the VA Hospital
    Send this to your congressman and the president Priority 8 is the regulation that allows veterans to be treated in the VA hospital if they are willing to pay a deductible. This is a benefit to those of us who make more money than the maximum allowed but cannot be covered by normal insurance because of pre-existing conditions. This was eliminated by then President Bush in 2003. As our population gets older, more of us will be left without insurance and hospitalization. Medical attention will be out of reach for a growing number of veterans that are working hard to earn a living as self employed Americans. We need your help. We served our country and all we are asking for is a chance to live a full life without the fear of getting ill or injured with no access to medical care. Mr. President, I am a veteran. I am self employed I have multiple sclerosis I cannot get insurance because of preexisting condition. PLEASE have congress reinstate the enrollment option for veterans to receive treatment in the veterans administration hospital under Priority group 8 that was rescinded under president Bush in 2003.

  • Native Americans Should Not Be Denied Health Care
    Tribal Health Facilities receiving IHS Funding should not be allowed to deny any Indian with a chronic health condition from receiving medical care at their clinic. As of July 1, 2012, the Seminole Tribe of Florida has decided to treat non-Seminole Tribal members for acute (Meaning short term illness) care only. They will no treat other Tribal members with chronic illness, such as Diabetes. This leaves many without affordable health care. Many are now uninsurable for traditional health insurance.

  • Limit immigration to sustainable numbers
    Yes, we are a nation of immigrants, but we need to reduce immigration to traditional levels so that it does not drive population growth and unemployment. In the 1970’s, our population reached 200 million, and we wondered how we were going to preserve our environment. People started having fewer children, But the government drastically increased immigration (and ignored illegal migration) to the point where we are at 325 million. We’ll be at a half billion by mid century! Meanwhile we are running out of resources and trampling the environment. If we maintain our current immigration policy, our environment will be destroyed by overpopulation. This excessive growth is also causing wage depression and outright unemployment. We have massive unemployment, yet we are importing workers faster than we are creating jobs. This makes no sense.
