  • Tell the Super Committee to tackle the budget deficit the right way!
    We're facing an economic crisis, and if Washington tries to solve it the wrong way, the result could be catastrophic for millions of Americans. The Joint Committee on Deficit Reduction - better known as the Super Committee - is meeting and making decisions right now that will profoundly affect the food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink and other environmental factors that keep us healthy or prevent illness. We need your help. EWG sent the committee members our recommendations, showing that they can address the budget AND make sure that we protect programs for children, the environment and our health, as well as ensure that there's a true safety net for farmers who need it. Will you tell the committee right away that you stand with EWG?

  • Justice For Antwoine Bealer
    Human government was established to keep the strong from enslaving the weak and the poor from being exploited by the rich. God says "Woe to you who decree unrighteous decrees, who write misfortune, which they have prescribed to rob the needy of justice," Isaiah 10:1-2. Goggle Corrupt Judges and Corrupt police and see for yourselves how the needy is being robbed of justice. WE NEED THOUSANDS OF SIGNATURES

  • This is News: Give our fallen servicemen and women the respect they are due
    Our country is at war. Over 6200 young men and women have died in Iraq and Afghanistan and the numbers grow daily. Why then, does the evening news start with a story on Lindsey Lohan? Every newscast and newspaper in this country should devote a moment or space to naming and honoring these young men and women who die everyday. A photo and a sentence. They deserve it. And the people of this country need to see the reality of what is happening.

  • Outlaw corporate "personhood"
    In the 1890s, a judicial decision in the USA granted a corporation the full protection of human rights. Applying the U.S. Constitution's first ten amendments (the "Bill of Rights") to these commercial entities brought us today to the concept of "too big to fail." Stop protecting fictional "persons" at the expense of real persons!

  • End Daylight Savings Time
    Daylight Savings Time is an outdated relic from another era long since passed. It is confusing, useless and unnecessary. DST disrupts your internal clock & biorhythms, in addition to it being completely annoying changing the time on every last appliance that has a time display. So along with other useless wreckage and lumber (ie. dial up internet, typewriters and betamax) it is LONG overdue time for DST to be thrown onto the scrap-heap of history!

  • "Innocent until Proven Guilty" The Truth Behind Capitol Punishment
    The U.S Supreme court recently denied an pardon for Troy Anthony Davis a man that may have been innocent to not be executed. Meanwhile days prior Samuel David Crowe a murderer who pleaded guilty was spared from lethal injection and commuted his sentence to life in prison. We can not let this kind of injustice go on. Although Troy life has ended his voice can still be heard through us so this will not happen anymore. Let's take a stand today. Let's say no to Capital Punishment

  • Vote Against Public Employee Domestic Partner Benefits Restriction Act
    Recently, the Michigan House of Representatives passed HB 4770, the Public Employee Domestic Partner Benefits Restriction Act, and HB 4771, an amendment to 1947 PA 336. Together, these bills seek not only to prevent our universities and colleges, schools and public services from providing health benefits to the domestic partners of public employees, but they also seek to strip health benefits from people who have already negotiated contracts extending these benefits to domestic partners. This legislation is not only morally reprehensible but also economically myopic.
