The Department of Justice is currently reviewing the proposed redistricting maps. However, Georgians need to make their voices heard in Washington and here in Georgia. Stop the GOP attack on the Voting Rights Act and share your concerns with DOJ.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, fracking (the fracturing of shale underground to extract natural gas) is directly linked to recent damaging earthquakes in Oklahoma. During fracking, waste fluid is rapidly pumped back into the ground deep into aquifers, where it fouls drinking water and agitates local faults, causing earthquakes.

Newspapers tell you that the Republicans have "filibustered" President Obama's jobs bill. This is not true. They've THREATENED to filibuster, which is how they have blocked countless progressive measures. I say, LET THEM FILIBUSTER!

When home health care services for Pima County were contracted to a private company, PCOA for All, a promise was made to employees that they would not lose their existing pay and benefits. Now PCOA for all is failing to honor that commitment by proposing cuts to employee benefits and less than living wage increases in pay. At $9.60 an hour, these workers are well below median wage for their profession and have not had a wage increase in over 7 years. The company is offering a 19 cents per hour wage increase, but offsetting this modest increase by approximately $1 per hour in decreases to employee benefits, in what effectively amounts to a pay cut. . Tell PCOA For All Board President Jim Murphy that low wage workers deserve at least $10 per hour for providing critical quality care in our community! You can help by signing the below petition and calling Board President Jim Murphy: at (520) 243-8071 to tell him what you think.

The City of Oakland seems poised to remove the Occupy Oakland encampment at any moment. Support by clergy and religious leaders to prevent an eviction is critical at this moment. Please sign this Statement to help persuade City Council and Mayor Quan that this encampment is a profoundly symbolic and vital part of the Occupy Wall Street movement which seeks to expose the suffering of millions of Americans and restore justice in our economy. We believe Oakland should be a model city by showing the world just how local governments can work together with the encampment to realize the dreams and aspirations of the 99% and make the city work for the 100%

Make every Democratic congress member sign a pledge to get money out of politics and start working for the people. Like the no tax pledge by Grover Norquist. We the 99% will vote only for candidates who sign this pledge.

We go through 380 billion plastic bags a year, costing us $1.6 billion gallons of oil a year, oil that would be better served for other more vital things. We then throw them in a landfill--the ones that stay there, that is. Billions of bags end up blowing around as litter and end up in our oceans, killing millions of sea creatures every year. In the U.S., there is a budding but rapidly growing movement to "ban the bag." Like the ban on smoking, which started in local communities and went national, the banning of plastic bags will follow a similar path, though much more quickly. A few examples of cities that have already 'banned the bag' are San Francisco, Telluride, and Brownsville, TX. Let's be a community that helps lead this important local and global issue.

Together, we can save the camp and keep our focus on the real problem in our communities -- the gross inequality of wealth and power.
