AB 591 is a California bill that will require gas and oil companies to notify agencies & nearby residents of potential environmental hazards during the fracking process. Fracking has been linked to climate changing methane emissions and water contamination from chemicals and natural gas but is not required to adhere to the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1986. This bill is currently held up in the California Senate Appropriations Committee. Please e-mail your State senator to sign this bill into law and encourage others to do the same.

Oklahoma is at or near the bottom ranking in obesity, lack of health care, premature deaths, smoking and many other categories.

RI State Senator Nicholas Kettle (R-Coventry, Foster, Scituate) is bringing the War on Workers to Rhode Island. Teachers are not to blame for the poor management and financial problems besetting RI school districts. Just like workers are not to blame for poor corporate management and Wall Street driving our economy off a cliff in 2008.

Brent Bennett, a young veteran who served for the US Navy, is under attack from the Oregon Unemployment Department. They are trying to get him to pay back a disgustingly huge sum of money, for a mistake that THEY had made. The mistake? Refusing to take information from him when he'd originally applied for benefits, and then using that information to retroactively deny him benefits after having been on them for over three years, and occumulated over $50,000 via $400+ weekly unemployment insurance benefits. They had known about the information he had tried to supply, we can assume, from the beginning, but did not deny him then, and waited until his benefits had been completely run through before then demanding him to pay it back. Brent Bennett is still unemployed, and they have signed a warrant for garnishment on him already. He has no means to repay the huge sum of money and the interest keeps growing every month. Brent is going to find a lawyer and take this issue to court and battle it to the end, but we need more than just a good lawyer to get this issue seriously looked at. Without the backing of society, the government and the unemployment department could just swipe this issue under the table and ignore it indefinitely. We need a public outrage to get our cries heard! We cannot let this sort of atrocity happen to other innocent US citizens, we should not allow this atrocity happen to Brent. Help us fight this and make life fair for the people in our country. Please do not allow the Government to effectively RUIN a young man's entire life by forcing him into a debt of this measure, that cannot be removed by bankruptcy, with an interest rate that will keep him from ever paying it off.

Forbes reported that AT&T was worth over $265 Billion Dollars in total assets. Forbes ranked AT&T 13th on Forbes Global 2000, which ranks the most powerful companies in the world. Why would a company ranked 13th in the world be laying off. Some may blame Greedy CEO's and Share Holders. Some may blame the fact that AT&T has out sourced many of its Middle Class jobs to Foreign Countries. Others may blame failed plans to buy T-Mobile USA. Regardless of who you blame, we all can agree that America can't afford not one additional layoff. AT&T employees are banning together with Communications Workers of America (CWA), hundreds of other Labor Unions, Politicians and Clergy, to put an end to the WAR on Middle Class Workers. AT&T proposed layoffs could cause foreclosures in your neighborhoods while their out sourced worked will create job opportunities, housing, and help build economies in other countries. That’s why it is extremely important that you join with fellow Americans to save jobs, and create jobs here in the United States of America. CWA is known for being a Community Minded Union. So should the company our Members work for.

Governor Bentley and the Alabama State Legislature are pushing an agenda that takes money from state schools, and from Medicaid, in order to balance the budget, while they enforce an extremely biased and unjust immigration policy and trample on the rights of Alabama Women.

We need to stop the abortion law from going into effect. In its present state, a doctor can be charged legally for causing the death of a fetus that is older than 22 weeks, if it dies from his treatment to cure and help the mother. We need to take this clause out so doctors can treat patients without fear of reprisal.

It is time that we permit employers of conscience to exercise their constitutionally protected beliefs and be permitted to withhold Viagra via employer provided health insurance. It is a tyrannical government that mandates I spend my hard earned money to subsidize men having sex. Erectile dysfunction should not be "the people's problem".

Rush Limbaugh's anti-woman rants have gone so far that it is unacceptable for WGAN to profit from filling Maine's airwaves with his hate and misogyny. Limbaugh called a law student who testified on behalf of insurance coverage for contraceptives a "slut" and a "prostitute" and publicly suggested that she post videos of herself having sex on the Internet. If Rush were using such blatant and unabashed slurs about a racial or ethnic group, his repulsive vitriol would never be broadcast. We request that WGAN, which currently has one female host and 15 male hosts, show its support for the women of Maine by pulling Limbaugh's show from the airwaves effective immediately--and replacing his noon to 3 pm radio show with one that has a woman host.

Oklahoma is just one of many conservative states attacking Women's Rights in the name of religious justice. Most recent is the attempt at defining the fertilized human egg as a person, which would render some forms of contraception as well as abortion illegal. This amounts to little more than the establishment of Christian Law in Oklahoma, which should be just as swiftly rejected as Oklahoma"s 2010 attempt at "preventing" Islamic Sharia Law from ever being enforced or protected in Oklahoma. Using religion to advance the War on Women's Rights is unethical and unconstitutional. Sign this petition to stop Mary Fallin's War on Women's Rights and protect the religious freedoms of all Oklahomans.
