  • WomenSpeak
    A petition for women to voice what matters most to them as mothers, professionals, sisters daughters and female leaders. Women represent the backbone of our society and yet we continue to be undervalued. This forum would provide a loud and clear voice that America's women matter and have something very important to say.

  • Recall School Board Members Who Do Not Support the Superintendent
    Our Birmingham School Board has held this city back for decades and fails to support the academic and budgetary reforms of our new Superintendent of Education. He favors academics while some long-term members favor athletics. Our city is too poor for more expenses anywhere but in academics for our children. The former Superintendent was indicted for actions while serving, and the Board does not propely support our new one. A surprise meeting to fire him was held and the old school members are threatened by his expertise and professionalism. End the days of back-slapping on Birmingham's School Board, and allow recalls of its members today. Thank you so much.

  • Term limits
    I believe it is time that we enacted term limits on Senators and Representatives. The culture in Washington has gotten so strong and so heavily influenced from outside sources that the ordinary citizen no longer has a say and the power structure in our elected offices simply causes our officials to be more concerned with maintaining power and doing the bidding of lobbyists and as such they no longer represent what the people want from their government. We do it to the President and most governors, why not to our Congresspeople.

  • Stop discharge of firearms in housing developments in North Carolina
    Many violators of firearm use in housing developments are discharging high powered rifles and machine guns. There is also the issue of poaching which is becoming common place because of lax laws. Streams are being polluted by the lead deposited in them which feed into the local wells. There is also the issue of Breach of Peace, devaluation of property and nuisance attraction by children. When poachers are in your backyard...it is time to take a stand! This would in no way interfere with the right to carry a handgun in a legal fashion or defend your property/life. Also, it would not interfere with firing at legally operated ranges.

  • Mishandling of Dillingham Airfield
    Dillingham Airfield is a haven for recreational air activities in the State of Hawaii. It is a special airport because it is non-towered, and readily allows general aviation, ultralight aircraft, gliders, parachuting operations, and military training to occur simultaneously. However, we the people of the State of Hawaii believe it is being mismanaged, and ask for special review, by the Governor's Office, of the DOT-A and all related offices in regards to the mistreatment of businesses and tenants on Dillingham Airfield .

  • End Federal Prohibition of Medical Marijuana
    Ending federal laws regulating cannabis, marijuana and hemp. Current federal law places these three substances in Schedule 1 of the drug code (No known medical use and/or great chance of abuse). There are many published studies showing the medical uses of marijuana or cannabis, some published by the government itself. Putting people in jail for using a plant that is basically a weed and totally safe is insane!

  • Save American Symphony Orchestras
    Symphony orchestras around the US are deteriorating due to smaller ticket sales, dwindling audiences, and less support from Foundations and the Government. Plus there have been union and management issues tearing apart orchestras that have been around for decades. We are calling on stronger Foundation and Corporate support, funds from individuals to spark new ideas that will attract younger and larger audiences.
