Get Rush Limbaugh off KLIX 1310 radio in Twin FallsRush Limbaugh openly harassed Sand Fluke by calling her a "slut" and saying she should make a "sex video." This is a blatant attempt at vilifying women who use contraceptive pills. He should not be allowed to continue being on the radio, and it gives KLIX radio a bad name if they should keep his show running on their station.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jorgi Gonzalez

Idaho Legislature: PAY OUR TEACHERS!The Idaho Legislature is arguing whether wealthy Idahoans should get a $35 million tax break or if Idaho teachers should receive the pay that was cut last year for a savings of $35 million. This tax break only helps the wealthiest of Idahoans. Even a family of four making $100,000 per year would only see a tax savings of $71.00! It's more important that our children receive a quality education than for the rich to get another tax break.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Eric L. Rogge

The absence of justice anywhere. Is an Injustice everywhere!We need the matter of Trayvon Martins death to be looked into further! This child was not armed, yet gunned down in the street. The person that took this young mans life is still walking free. Anyone that knows an ounce of law knows that walking away from the victim or crime, especially without a weapon the person is not a threat. Yet this 28 year old Zimmerman was justified with a self-defense plea. This has prejudice and hate crime stink all over it! Those that have the power of change, need to start exerting it now. Let there be light shed on the social injustices and double standards that still plague our country. Those that commit unjustified crimes need to be brought to justice while following proper procedure. Zimmerman needs to be held until proven otherwise.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by justice for all

Justice for Trayvon MartinJustice for Trayvon Martin. There is no case for self defense on the part of an obese privileged white male that simply feels he was justified in shooting and killing a 16 yr old he stated was coming at him , or simply bc this man was intimated by this young man's race and style of dress!! This is a sad day I'm America if nothing is done to bring this man to justice because he doesn't have the right to take a young man's life!!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lynetta Shipley

Tell President Obama: Help keep Veterans in Their Homes by Reducing their mortgage payments, Redu...Hi, This petition is for all veterans, family members and anyone who is concerned about veterans and their families. There have been several foreclosures of homes owned by veterans in Bell County. Some foreclosures were due to unemployment, and others were due to medical issues. I am sure that veterans and their families losing their homes to foreclosures are occurring around the country. This petition is asking President Obama to take the middleman – BANKS out of the home loan process to veterans and their families. The objective of this petition is to ask President Obama to allow veterans to borrow directly from the government and take the middle man out of the home loans to veterans’ process. The Obama administration has done this with student loans. Students who want to borrow money for higher education can now borrow directly from the Department of Education. Why not extend this to veterans’ home loans by allowing veterans to borrow directly from the Veterans Administration who is currently the guarantor for all veterans’ home loans. It shall decrease the rate of foreclosure for veterans, reduce their mortgage payments, and allow them to pay off their loans sooner. More importantly, it will reduce homelessness amongst veterans. Help stop the bleeding of veterans; take the middle man out of the home loan business. Why should you care about this? In the community that I live in, several veterans and their families have lost their homes to foreclosures. Perhaps in the communities that you live in, the same has happened. I know of veterans who have paid for 15 to 20 years on their mortgages and now because of medical issues, or unemployment their homes are being foreclosed. What a way to thank our veterans and their families for their honorable service to our country. Please sign this petition and stop the tragedy. That's why I created a petition to President Barack Obama, which says: "Take the middle man-BANKS out of the home loans to veterans.” Will you sign my petition? Thanks!

Sentencing Disparity & Petition Seek Sentence ModificationEvent: FREE DANNY MEANS! LET OUR VOICES BE HEARD!!! My nephew, Danny E. Means, has been incarcerated for 15 years because of his involvement in a series of crimes stemming from a 1997 bank robbery. Of the 3 men involved with these crimes, only Danny received the lengthy sentence of 120 years. The others served less than 8 years, while Danny remains incarcerated. All 3 men were involved in these crimes that had potential for harm but no one was injured or killed. Even so, the prosecution was allowed to increase low-level charges to more serious charges. Not for the purpose of bringing justice to the matter, but for no other reason than to get the largest sentence possible for Danny. You see, we the family and friends of Danny do not condone his actions in any shape, form or fashion, and neither does Danny! However, nor do we condone an "in-justice" system that allows such grievous racial disparity in its sentencing. Danny received a sentence twice that of the maximum for murder and much more than a white male of the same age would have received for the same charges. Furthermore, statistics show that by the end of 2005, 8.1% of black males age 25-29 were incarcerated compared to 1.1% white males for the same charges. We his family and friends are not claiming that Danny is innocent. Only that his sentence is unjust and we refuse to let this unjust sentence hang over his head for approximately the next 30 years left on his sentence without our voices being heard! Help us speak out about the injustice and sentence disparity being done to all black men and Danny by following this link: Thank you for your support and your prayers.93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Deborah J.
