  • Jesse White: Get Our Drivers Out of Jail
    Many people are incarcerated in the Cook County Jail for driving on suspended revoked in Illinois and they need help instead of incarceration. The jail is so full of drivers that have done nothing except for driving on suspended and some have never even had a license. The jail could use this room for more serious crimes and the people could use a program to help them get their license. We need some laws changed to cut down on the number of persons incarcerated.

  • Reinstate Glass-Steagall
    My petition is about reinstating a law passed in 1933 that prevented investment banks and commercial banks from merging. When this law was in place from 1933 to 1999 our country had many years of economic growth and prosperity.

  • Audit The Federal Reserve
    The Federal Reserve is not a Federal government institution, but is a privatized corporate entity, which is directed by the Federal government to print money out of thin air, and increase the debt which we are forever paying increasing inflationary prices on !!!!! Support Ron Paul, and your local Liberty Caucus groups, to Audit The Fed!!!!! Thank You

  • Boko Haram should be designated FTO
    Killing and terrorizing innocent citizens in al qaida-like fashion is classical terrorism. There should be no double standards.

  • Stop Government Hijacking!
    Publicly elected representatives (such as congress) should be prohibited from signing declarations pledging allegience to positions crafted by individuals such as Grover Norquist. He is among other things known for the "Taxpayer Protection Pledge", which was signed by 95% of all Republican Congressmen and all but one of the 2012 Republican presidential candidates, to oppose increases in marginal income tax rates for individuals and businesses.

  • Tar Sands Pipeline
    Being a native Vermonter, I have a natural appreciation for the beauty in my home state. This could change drastically should a tar sands pipeline be built here. Just the deforestation required to maintain the pipeline would be a travesty in this beautiful State. A leak in the pipeline would pose a direct risk to local species and our water supply.

  • Plain Language
    Amendments and proposed laws are often written using obtuse wording that can be construed in several different ways. In physics, the laws of thermodynamics are set out in plain, simple language. If elected officials can't present state laws and amendments simply, then they should not be in a position to write state laws and amendments.

  • Gov. Corbett, PA State Legislature: Don't cut funding for Home and Community-Based Waiver Programs
    My name is Michael Pellicano. I am a quadriplegic who relies on the critical funding of the Home and Community Waiver Based Programs which help provide caregivers for the elderly, sick and disabled. The funding cut enacted by Gov. Corbett and PA legislature reduces care workers already low wages by $.45 an hour. These care workers receive no benefits of any kind. In addition this funding cut will hurt those most in need of assistance with basic daily care they are unable to do for themselves. Please tell Gov. Corbett and the PA legislature to stop these funding cuts.
