Last night 518 peaceful demonstrators were brutally arrested in Montreal under a new law known as "Bill 78". Under this martial-law like bill, all public assemblies are effectively banned in clear violation of Article 20 of the Universal Declaration of Human rights, a set of laws and principals to which both the US and Canada are signatory. Please join us in demanding that Jean Charest, the Premier of Quebec, abolish this draconian law and drop all charges against peaceful protesters.

Stop the GAG order against Doctors. It is unconstitutional and a clear violation of the First Ammendment. Dr. Gina Makris

Clarence Thomas has broken the laws over and over again and lied under oath in his confirmation hearings! He is a disgrace to America. He has taken payments through his wife from entities or individuals on cases he has ruled on! He is a disgrace to all of America!

Scott Walker is an affront to the republic, a liar and a martinet. He is the point of the spear for regressive right wing conspiracies to remake the country by burrowing into the state legislatures. Wisconsin is the Little Round Top of the battle of Gettysburg. Win it and the Repubs will be on the retreat before the November elections. Lose it and give hope and sustenance to the Kochs and Rove. The message will be, Yes Carl, money can buy elections. Liberal and progressive allies must be aware of the crucial nature of this contest. And so must the President. Mr President go to Wisconsin and help take down Walker.

The artist village in Santa Ana, Ca is in trouble and may be at the mercy of a very rich and powerful, money motivated, dogmatic, Christian organization. Artistic expression is in our town is in big trouble!

This petition is to drive public support to draft Hillary Clinton as the Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate. She would substantially strengthen the ticket and hopefully force Obama to stand up to the Republican/Tea Party threats (i.e. stop groveling and kowtowing).But most importantly, put the Democratic Party in good standing to take the Presidency again in 2016!!!

We need an agency to review reported misconduct brought to the attention of local Internal Affairs Officers. Unfortunately, the officer who reviews and investigates these complaints tend to be coworkers and this either needs to change or oversite is needed to ensure citizens complaints are not just being written off.

There have been so many easy fixes to our economy why hasnt OBAMA done anything.Example we now know theres more oil in the USA than the entire world,getting our oil out of the ground puts hundres of thousands of people back to work plus the lowering of gas prices below $2 not only solves our economy but the entire worlds.Would you sign a petition getting our people to get our oil out of our ground putting everyone back to work and lowering gas prices would give everyone a huge raise so the economy becomes the worlds greatest not the worst

If not, please encourage your family and friends to register and get out and vote.

Last year, Cheyenne River Sioux Vern Traversie, a tribal citizen of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of South Dakota, went to the Rapid City Regional Hospital for heart surgery, but a graphic photograph taken by a nurse upon his September return home indicates the procedures went far beyond normal medical care. The pictures show three distinctive Ks - or KKK - on his abdomen. Law enforcement and medical personnel have yet to satisfy Traversie and others with any follow up action against the hospital's staff. They maintain no one did anything wrong to Traversie.

It was made clear in the recent past that Scott walker has PAID the Chicgo attorneys that were hired to defened him against the John Doe investigation. In Wisconsin it is illeagal to hire or PAY attorneys until AFTER an indictment has been handed down. The Joe Doe investigators, Dane County DA and Sheriff need to step up enforce this part of WI law as the WI DOJ is not doing anything. It is time we the people force action on this ASAP.
