• County Mental Health Center A Necessity
    We, the undersigned, recognize the need to keep the County Mental Health Center Open. In their own mission statement, it says: "The Community Mental Health Center of Lancaster County is dedicated to providing quality mental health care and rehabilitation services for adults who experience acute physhological distress or serious mental illness." We all know someone who is in need of these services. Knowing that this facility is closing has our friends, family members, neighbors and those we do not know, but who live in Lancaster County, in a frenzy. They are frightened as to what will happen to them.How will they get the treatment and medications that they so desperately need. A trait of all people, especially those with mental problems, is the need for community support. Without this support, many will end up in jail, on drugs, or living on the streets. The Mental Health Center is a lifeline for people with problems. How can we turn our backs on our neighbors, friends, relatives and people in need? Signing this petition let's the county know that the County Mental Health Center is a necessity and should remain open. Correction: "No county money was spent to re-dig the geothermal well holes. That was the responsibility of the contractor that dug them wrong in the first place. The subcontractor had bond money posted prior to going out of business. The contractor fulfilled its legal and financial obligation of re-digging the 149 wells at no cost to the county." per Jane Raybould (District #1), Board of County Commissioners We still need to keep the Community Mental Health Center open and functioning.

  • Force Rush to Apologize
    Rush Limbaugh was wrong to paint Sandran Fluke as a "slut" on national radio, February 29, 2012. The outrage was instantaneous; bit instead of apologizing the next day, he stated that if Sandra wanted other people to pay for her birth control, she should be willing to tape her sexual interactions and post them on the internet. This is the most disgusting, vile form of sexism he could possibly publicize. We must let the CEO of Clear Channel know that this is not ok. His actions are slanderous and wrong. Rush Limbaugh needs to apologize immediately!

  • "Protect Our Right To Vote"
    As a fair nation we must protect our right to vote. It should not be more difficult to vote but more convenient for the people, especially in the difficult times we Americans are living in. This is an issue that will effect us all. Our right to vote is the very thing that makes a difference in everything we want for America.

  • URGENT: Floridians, your freedom is at risk!!
    Governor Scott wants to funnel $$$ to his hospital friends by forcing you to the ER within 72 hours of an accident.

  • Keep Indiana's Inheritance Tax
    Indiana's legislature is close to voting away our state's inheritance tax. As it now stands, inheritance left to a spouse or charity is wholly exempt, and leaving a million dollars to a surviving child would incur a tax rate just under 5%, hardly destroying a family's fortune, while generating $165 million in annual revenue. At a time when state programs are needed to support infrastructure, education, and business development to create new opportunities, there's no reason to stop asking the extremely wealthy to pay it forward.

  • Save the Postal Service and Postal Workers Jobs
    Tea Party Republicans are out to cripple the Postal Service, thereby eliminating up to 200,000 good paying Postal Worker jobs. The Post Office is fully funded through the sale of stamps, but Bush-era regulations require them to fully fund pension and healthcare benefits for the next 75 years, something that Republicans would never dare to ask a corporation to do.

  • Please complain to your TV stations about the airing of an attack ad
    A station that won't approve fraudulent advertisements for products should be at least as vigilant about misleading political advertisements. Political groups would be more responsible in framing their messages if they knew they had to pass a truth test to get them on the air.

  • Protect Wildlife Health In Colorado
    We need to protect the natural movement, daily and seasonal, of wildlife in the US, by removing unneeded fencing, and altering fencing that is unfriendly for wildlife movement on public lands and give incentives to do so on private lands. We also need to make corridors over and under roads so that motorists are safer as well. This can create jobs in rural America, bring tourism to many areas, and increase the health of heard populations, which can increase hunting licences, and bring more tourism dollars.

  • Lets put a stop to the Don't Say Gay bill!
    The Don't Say Gay bill would ban the discussions of LGBT issues and limit all sexually related instruction to "natural human reproductive science" in kindergarten through 8th grade. This bill will go to the TN. senate educational committee in a few weeks. The bill violates our first amendment rights, sends the wrong message to our kids and could jeopardize their safety!

  • Marriage Equality
    My petition is about everyone being allowed the same rights when it comes to marriage. The rest of the United States is coming around to marriage equality, so Louisiana should join. Love is Love, no matter if it is in a gay, lesbian, and straight relationship.
