    Let justice prevail. Justice sometimes can be unfair when the laws are made by men and women who believes that what is made law do not apply to them.

  • Give Felons a chance for Employment!!!
    An estimated 65 million Americans have criminal records. Over the last two decades, the percentage of employers screening for such records has grown from an estimated 20% to more than 90%. How are Felon's going to stay on the straight and narrow if they can't find work, make a living, support themselves and their family? These barriers actually encourage criminal activity by preventing ex-offenders from re-entering the economic mainstream. When a person serves their time for the offense they have committed, their record should be sealed. People make mistakes and as a society we are too harsh on these individuals.Encouraging employers and local governments to give people with criminal records a second chance is the right thing to do. Remove that dreadful question "Have you ever been convicted of a felony" off the application. Although the justice system is designed to punish and rehabilitate, the rehabilitation is something that requires more than a GED program and a few skills courses. It requires the assistance of communities and employers. Lets put an end to this discrimination!!! By signing this petition we are sending a message that every citizen has made a mistake once in their life and deserves another opportunity to prove himself.

  • Protect Children
    Children are the world changers of tomorrow and we are not doing enough to keep them safe. Adults are abusing and killing innocent children and not being force to take responsibility, it's not right! As adults, we need to stand up and protect the future of our countries and force those who cause harm to be punished and take responsibilty. A couple years in prision for murdering a child is not enough.

  • May Mental Health Awareness Month
    Mental Health Awareness Month was started by MHA Mental Health America which is the oldest organization for Mental Health. Started in 1928 by a consumer finding that it was difficult and no laws to help the Mentally ILL. Join us to say that everyone is depressed once in a while and that the FMLA of 12 weeks NON-Paid leave is not reasonable when Illness causes money. Everyone with ill children or family members receive no pay for these 12 weeks
