VA Is for Lovers?? Allow Same-Sex Marriage.Our motto "Virginia is for Lovers" may be true, but the fine print reads "some restrictions apply." The Federal Equal Rights Amendment recognizes the injustice of denying same-sex marriage, but each state has to say NO to discrimination and YES to EQUAL RIGHTS for Everybody! Abraham Lincoln said, "The probability that we may fall in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just; it shall not deter me." We all KNOW this is The Just thing to do! Be Brave. Let us lead the way in the South to allow same-sex marriage.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ces Ochoa

Changes to assure performance from out GovernmentRight now our politicians are elected to office based on their campaign promises. Unless the do something that creates a scandal, they stay in office for their term no matter what their performance is office is accomplishing. Changing the structure of how are political representatives are elected into a hiring process just like the rest of us, where if they don't perform they are fired and someone else is hired to take their place. No more big pensions after office, no more fat benefits after term is over. They would be at will employees where we could hire or fire them for lack of performance. The President and Vice President would still be elected, but there would be a panel to hire Congressman, Representative and any other office based on their past experience and performance.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rhonda Nole

Fox "news" STOP your LIES, HALF-TRUTHS & RACISMFox "news" has poisoned American political discourse with lies and misinformation. Creating a "reality" all it's own, repeating lies and innuendo over & over, while posing as a legitimate news org. persuading millions to believe their dishonest propaganda and not so subtle racist tone. Let's tell Fox advertisers that we will not be buying their products or services until Fox stops it's insidious 24/7 drumbeat of lies and cleans up it's act. A misinformed electorate weakens Democracy's foundation.40 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Wayne Camardo

Better school lunches!In France, they serve five-course meals, made of a main dish, yogurt or cheese, desert, appetizers, a side, and vegetables. Here, we get frozen tater tots and meat with so much preservatives it would last weeks. We get unappetizing vegetables in small plastic bags, and meat that has been radiated and isn't even real meat. We get ketchup that's really just tomato paste with water. I understand we're in a recession, but is it so bad that children's health is no longer a concern? Sure, you pay for money to feed us- but the food hardly gives us energy or increases our health. And I think that it's time to fix that. There is a reason we are the most obese nation in the world.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Astrid M.
