Keeping Families Together...Where PossibleKeeping Families Together...Where Possible I would like to start a non prophet organization for families who have dealt with and may still be dealing with the Child Protective Service system; who were not treated fairly; according to the system's own rules. We need to hold this system accountable; when their caseworkers take it upon themselves to rewrite the rules; allowing their personal feelings to decide their cases rather than professional ones. If questionable cases are re-opened, it will solve some of the adoption problems. I want to provide these families with the help they need when they don't know their rights. Please, feel free to contact me with any suggestions or prehaps we could work together to make a positive change in this system.

Ban Hydrofracking from Finger Lakes WatershedHydrofracking around the watersheds of New York City and Syracuse have been banned by the governor and state legislature because of how it pollutes the water. The same consideration for the quality of life of the residents and tourists in the Finger Lakes should be legislated. The Finger Lakes are the source of water for municipalities, tens of thousands of individuals, farms, vineyards, recreation, and tourism.5,798 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Jeanne Judson

Washington feds the American public lies about how much is being done when if fact veterans are becoming homeless and committing suicide at alarming numbers.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Simpson

WIPING THE SLATE CLEAN...STARTING FRESHGovernment reform will not happen on its own. You cannot expect those that are riding the gravy train to want to get off. It is time for our current representation in our government to effect real change for the people of our nation. They can either get on board with THE PEOPLE or get out.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Simone Braxton

Julia, Lead the Way to lead poisoning awarenessThe PEL (permissible elevated lead level) in children has dropped from 10 to five and we need to continue to push for zero! Thank you to the CDC! Please support funding from our President, the federal government, and global leaders. That will allow for us to better advocate for the changes needed to get the lead out. I am the Administrator of Julia, Lead the Way (lead poisoning awareness) on Facebook. My family and the members of our group hope to see changes in funding from government agencies. The need for the resources is immediate. It will help not only our children, but our environment and our nation.

Congress: Bring Back the Stet TaxOur stock market is being manipulated by traders who run millions of trades a day on computers, which is why the market will not stabilize. This is profitable for them because a stet tax is no longer in place to make is a less profitable venture. We are asking Congress to bring back the stet tax in order to stop this backroom trading and manipulating, and bring back a market that is more reflective of real trades.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laura Cearing

Save the TIU Chemistry DepartmentThe second core value of Trinity is "Comprehensive Education." The Chemistry program is integral to the Biology program, the Pre-Medical program, the Pre-Physical Therapy program, the Athletic Training program, the Pre-Nursing program, the Biology Secondary-Ed program, and even the newly instituted Pre-Physican's Assistant program, so as a result, all of these programs will be affected. As an outreach to the Administration, we past and present Trinity community members want to express the importance of Chemistry and Biology in a comprehensive education. Furthermore, our main goal is to keep at least one full-time Chemistry faculty member on staff who can teach all the Chemistry classes that are required for all the programs listed above. Without this faculty member, all other science programs at TIU will diminish over time, as adjunct professors cannot replace the effort and time put in by full-time professors. To the Trinity Administration and Board of Regents, we say this: Please reconsider your decision to close the Chemistry Department, or at the very least, keep our full-time Chemistry faculty member so that the science program as a whole will not be fatally hurt.350 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Josiah Zacharias

Congressional Reform Act of 2011Warren Buffet: "I could end the deficit in 5 minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election. The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971...before computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc. Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land...all because of public pressure. Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise. In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.43 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gabriel Afana

End Corporate influence in US Govt AMMENDMENTEnd all corporate donations to candidates. leave donations to the general public. If not possible, leave corporations with a 100 dollar limit on donations max. No Legislation introduced to congress coming from private organizations like ALEC or CPAC or any other organization. NO corporate personhood. An end to "revolving door" phenomena - any public official who wants to leave public job to get a private job in the same field, must wait 10 years to do so. Reverse Citizens United v FEC case. Re-in-statement of Glass-Steingal. Like what Cenk Uygur proposed.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David
