Families Destroyed by Hurricane KatrinaThis petition is to make people know how our courts have been and continue to be bought and sold by the wealthy when our judges and shady court practices side immediately with who has the most money without even doing background checks on them. I and many parents like me have been called a "flight risk" because I evacuated from Hurricane Katrina, a dangerous Category 5 hurricane. We had our children immediately stripped from us and given to the other parent who did NOT have even primary custody of the child(ren). These court cases were rushed through during times when the city was not fully up running and there was still martial law and price-gouging on rentals so people could not afford to come back and live. These victimized parents have ZERO rights to the children they once raised and cared for lovingly everyday. I want to push these crooks to overturn all these oportunistic judgements and let children be with their parents. New Orleans courts need to be investigated and held accountable for their actions regarding the evacuation loophole. Many children were taken away to live in other states by their parent who abused this system but evacuation is a "flight risk"? I think not.60 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Arienne Podoba

The Economy is a National Security IssueTo get Americans working again there has to be a level playing field for _all_ companies Big or Small. Outsourcing has to be addressed as-one-thing for all players. There has to be a FEDERAL mandate. The President can set it if it's a National Security Issue without going through Congress.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by William Tucker

Wayne Williams Deserves a New TrialOn February 27, 1982, a young Atlanta man with no prior criminal record was convicted of murdering two men. Shortly thereafter, the Atlanta Police Department closed 23 homicides and attributed them to Wayne B. Williams, calling him the "Atlanta Child Murderer." Since then, evidence has surfaced suggesting that Williams did not kill either of the two men or any of the children. Research also indicates that the evidence against Williams was faulty and even fabricated (at the time, the FBI lab used faulty techniques to convict hundreds of people, according to The Washington Post). http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/crime/doj-review-of-flawed-fbi-forensics-processes-lacked-transparency/2012/04/17/gIQAFegIPT_story.html63 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Karl Evanzz

Stop Israel's Misuse of U.S. Supplied Weapons2,969 Palestinian civilians were killed by the Israeli military between 2000-2009, many with weapons paid for by American taxpayers. Israel continues to misuse U.S. supplied weapons like white phosphorous and high velocity tear gas canisters against Palestinian civilians in violation of U.S. laws. Ask Members of Congress and President Obama to ensure that laws like the Arms Export Control Act and Foreign Assistance Act are enforced, and work to uphold the human rights of both Palestinians and Israelis.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mike Coogan

Expose Right Wing LiesIt's about the truth, about exposing all the lies that have been ruining the political and moral ground of this country. It's time to educate the masses, stop letting the right wing media repeatedly put the President at risk, women as second-class citizens, minorities disregarded and hated, education censored, religious corruption, voter suppression. Lies, lies, lies. Freedom of speech should at least mean that the speech is factual. Is that too much to ask?2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mary Kendall
