Tell Romney to release tax returnsThis petition is about the Republican Party Presidential nominee. Why does he need an extension, why can't he file his return on time? Why can't he release previous years? If you are running for the highest office in the country, it stands to reason you should be on top of things and especially have open, transparency about your finances. Release your prior year’s tax forms Romney so the country can really see the real financial picture of your net worth.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by R. M. Williams

Lower the rent rates to match the economy!Rental properties continue to raise the rent while the economy is in such a poor state. Which means the big rental corporations are making millions of dollars while the "middle to lower class" people are struggling to keep a roof over their heads. I think its unjust and Obama should force rental properties to lower the rent to a amount where it's a third of the average income.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laurie Wild

Banning incite to violence speechThe hate filled speech of Ted Neugent at the NRA show was totally unacceptable and abhorrent . There are too many people who are unstable and respond to these words as a call to action, as we have seen with Senator Gifford who was shot in the head over a year ago. This nation may have freedom of speech, but not to incite violence.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Betty Seidmon,Ph.D.

It’s Time for AZ Lawmakers to Stop Supporting ALEC’s Extreme AgendaAs a teacher in the Mesa Public School system, I know that you can only best serve the kids in your classroom by listening to them. The same principle should apply with Arizona’s legislators. They were elected to serve the people of Arizona and should be listening to us. But, lately, it seems legislators are only giving an ear to deep-pocketed, outside extremist corporate donors who are working through the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) to get their agenda passed. Recently, I participated in a press conference to speak out on ALEC’s extreme agenda. I spoke out because I am concerned with the way outside corporate power, through organizations such as ALEC, is taking over our democracy. Instead of measures to create good jobs and improve education for our children, our lawmakers are pushing radical policies from ALEC such as Arizona’s infamous immigration law, private school vouchers, “Shoot First” bills, voter suppression laws, and anti-worker measures. And while some companies, including Pepsi, Coca-Cola, McDonalds, Wendy’s, KRAFT, Intuit and Arizona Public Service, the largest energy company in Arizona, have withdrawn from ALEC, some legislators in Arizona continue to blindly support ALEC's extremist legislation. Well, it’s time for lawmakers to start listening to Arizonans, not secretive, corporate front groups like ALEC. Please sign my petition to tell Arizona lawmakers to cut ties immediately with ALEC and focus on improving education and helping Arizonans get back to work.6,139 of 7,000 SignaturesCreated by Dr. Janie Hydrick, teacher, Mesa Public Schools
