An economic hiccup would devastate the finances of more than 10 million "underwater" homeowners, throwing many into foreclosure. Mortgage lenders would be swamped with foreclosed homes. Already strapped homebuilders would be brought to their knees. In brief, we're one housing financial hiccup away from a National financial death spiral. Yet, without spending a dime or raising taxes a penny, the threat of fiscal calamity can be avoided by passing legislation that: (1) relieves banks of their capital requirements vis-a-vis mortgages, (2) mandates that lenders re-write "underwater" mortgages at current market value (marked-to-market), (3) mandates that homeowners cede to their lenders the difference between the amounts owing on their mortgages and FMV, and, (4) mandates that lenders re-write mortgages for 30 years at "preferred" interest rates and terms.

Currently many treatments for Autism Spectrum Disorders are denied or not covered by insurance companies. Passing SB 74 would allow children in Alaska who experience autism to receive the treatments they so desperately need to be healthy and fulfill their highest potential. SB 74 has been passed by the Alaska Senate, but it has been stalled in the Alaska House for the past three years. We have 34 days left in this legislative session and SB74 needs your help!

A law has recently been past that limits our first amendment rights granted to us by our founding fathers through the constitution. HR 347 is violating our right to free speech, by not allowing Americans to peaceably assemble in protest where they choose. There are now "Forbidden Speech Zones" where we are denied our first Amendment right of the Constitution This is yet another step in the decline of civil rights for Americans. Please sign this petition and forward it to as many people as possible. We will not standby and have our civil rights taken from us one by one.

Que el gobierno mexicano, ante el fracaso de la estrategia prohibicionista contra las drogas, explore y abra el debate a las posibles alternativas para enfrentar el problema de las drogas en una forma que acarree menos violencia y costos sociales.

Today I learned that a valuable faculty member is being laid off due to a declining student population, which is increasing the faculty:student ratio. This loss will greatly affect the quality of work produced by all students in the Graphic and Web Design programs at The Art Institute of Seattle. Help send a message to the school administration that we can't lose Aaron Shurts as a faculty member at our school.

I am tired of the time change. I see no valuable reason for it, ot at least not enough valuable reasons to continue the madness. Almost everyone I speak to feels the same, and we all wonder why it continues. Many countries have stopped changing and I think it would help all of us if the USA stopped as well. We are in an age where this is not important anymore, and it cause much more grief than it solves. Please work to stop this craziness.

Bristol will be sending their K-5th Grade students to school with middle school age children next school year. Our young children will be subject to young teenage pranks and offensive language. We don't want our young innocent children to be subject to potential harm and offensive language. We are calling on the Bristol Board of Education to reconsider protect our children instead of worrying about cost.

Voting is the bedrock of our democracy: we should encourage every eligible voter to do so, not create additional and unnecessary obstacles.

The Homer-Center School District is threatening to fire the district's school cafeteria workers and to subcontract their work to a private for-profit corporation. This will mean local tax dollars will leave our district and local residents will lose their jobs. Even if they are hired by the company, their salaries and benefits will be slashed. Please contact the Homer-Center School Board and Administration and tell them that our public schools are not for sale to the higest bidder!
