Transit riders should not be rounded up like cattle and removed from Rodney Square.

We need to support Senator Bernie Sanders in passing legislation to curtail Oil Speculators from constantly causing increases in the Gas Prices.

The government loans low interest rate money to the banks and asks them to loan it to students. The money comes with a guarantee that if the student defaults the government will repay the banks in full. Even though there is no risk to the banks from this transaction, they profit by charging students high interest rates (up to 8%). Canada, by comparison, loans the money directly to students and offers an interest rate of approximately 1%. The Canadian system benefits the students and the taxpayers. The US system benefits the banks at the expense of the student and the taxpayers. The US system is unfair to both students and taxpayers. We urge you to pass legislation to eliminate the banks from the student loan system.

The Supreme Court is supposed to be a non-biased, bi-partisan judiciary capable of dealing with the most critical issues facing Americans today. This court, possibly more than any other in history, has shown they are nothing more than an embarrassingly biased group of political infants. This is simply unacceptable.

Lower.Gas Prices...Federal Assistance!

The length of time allowed for medical insurance companiies to place a new subscriber in a "probation" status.

Having a casino in Chicago would only worsen the poverty stricken family that tries to make more money to only LOSE more money...keep the money IN the home...keep the casinos and corruption OUT of Chicago!!

The OHV Division of CA State Parks promotes driving vehicles on Oceano Beach as a type of so called "recreation". State Park Rangers should be leading nature walks on Oceano Beach rather than directing traffic. We need to listen to waves NOT engines for our own sanity.

While the Congress establishes the rules and uses the funds contributed to Social Security, they should be required to be enrolled as well. Congressional free-for-life retirement plans should be abolished.

Chase Bank has a 'minimum balance' fee of $12/month for accounts with a balance under $1500, a practice that in many African countries has been deemed illegal due to its discrimination against the impoverished. A person making minimum wage in America only makes $1200/month before taxes. We're calling on Chase Bank to stop robbing the poor and impoverished by dropping the monthly minimum fee.

Our Nation needs to bring Racism and Unjustice to the front of this Political Contest. Trayvon Martin death have cause a demand for this much needed conversation.

The Baha'i Community of Iran, the largest religious minority of that country, has been undergoing persecution from the government for many years now. A plethora of methods have been used by the government of Iran in pursuance of their goals, including arbitrary arrest, unlawful trials, executions, confiscation of land, businesses, pensions, etc. The most recent of these has been the denial of the right to education to young Baha'is. Specifically, they are barred from universities simply because of their religious beliefs, and when they tried to initiate their own educational programs, they are attacked. This past May, the Baha'i Institute for Higher Education (BIHE)--a community sponsored institution that sought to offer an education to the young Baha'is who were otherwise denied entry into a university---was the latest victim. Professors and administrators have been incarcerated, material has been confiscated, and the institution has been closed. Their crime? To educate deprived youth who long for an education. Wouldn't we all be guilty? We at Tufts, who are enjoying this inalienable right, would do well to join the growing international academic community---students, professors, administrators---who have voiced their opposition to such injustice and are working to stop this oppression. We invite you to sign this petition so that Tufts University will join the many universities in the US and around the world who have voiced their concern and have taken the concrete steps of accepting BIHE credits so that those BIHE students who were not able to finish their education can have an opportunity to apply to Tufts to continue their academic careers.
