Overturn Citizen's UnitedOur democracy has been hijacked by the powerful elite. Citizen's United has created the legality of corporations to function as though they are citizens. Overturning this legal abomination would restore some sanity to our "democracy".8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bruce Combs

Hold the executives and board of trustees legally liable for all corporate actsThe decision-making executives of corporations are not legally liable for any of the damages their decisions have caused -- whether it is polluting the air we breathe or cleaning up their oil spills. The corporations themselves may be liable, but the executives who knowingly direct their corporations to engage in illegal acts in order to make an extra profit can do so with 100% impunity. Let's change that and make both the corporate executives and the board of directors legally liable for all of their corporation's activities.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Shorin

Job CreationRepublicans refuse to put forth in a bipartisian way, job creation for the unemployed, yet they mistakenly insist that the Democrats are not doing just that. It is time we called on the House and Senate Republicans and asked them to tell the American people why they are holding them hostage to an economy that can only be overcome with the Republicans being part of the solution. Right now they are part of the problem.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pam Barbour

Save the MesoAmerican rain forestThe mesoamerican rain forest stretches from Panama to the five southern states of Mexico. It contains about 10% of the worlds biodiversity. In the last 20 years, almost 40% of the forest land has been burned for pasturing cattle and logging. We are calling on state and federal governments to purchase sustainable organic shade-grown coffee from the forest4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Metz

Village Voice Media: Stop the selling of young girls for sex on Backpage.comMy name is Victoria, and I’m 13 years old. I recently found out that girls as young as me are being sold for sex by people using a classifieds website called Backpage.com. You can buy and sell stuff on Backpage.com, look for an apartment, or find a job. That is all cool. But pimps are using Backpage.com to advertise girls my age to men twice their age and older, and that’s not okay. It makes me so upset to think that every night while I sleep safely in my bed, there are other girls who are spending the night being raped and abused. Backpage.com is owned by Village Voice Media. They read the news – they know that pimps have advertised girls for sex in the adult section of their website, but so far Village Voice Media has refused to take down the section. That's why, with the help of my mom, I started a petition to tell Backpage.com to close the adult section so that girls aren’t bought and sold for sex by sick people using the site. I recently became friends with a girl who was advertised by her pimp on Backpage.com. She's 13 years old just like me. What happened to her is so scary. I don’t want any other girl to experience that. Kids deserve to play, to be free, and to go to bed each night and have sweet dreams. Let’s help them do that. Please sign my petition and share it with all your friends. --Victoria, age 13 (and Mary Pannell, my mom)41,968 of 45,000 SignaturesCreated by Victoria, age 13 (and Mary Pannell, my mom)
