• Bus stop to Axis
    I am a student who lives in Axis apartments who does not have a car and it's a hassle to find a consistent ride to school. Not only for me but also many residents of The Axis Apartments. With the cold weather on the horizon it discourages students from attending class because we have to walk in such environments. I feel the residents of Axis have been neglected by both Madison County Transit and Southern Illinois University Edwardsville.

  • Clarence Thomas should resign
    I've had enough! Sexual predators at all levels of our government but particularly in the very highest levels should be just as accountable for their actions. Many of us believed Anita Hill at the time but in "the old days" this kind of behavior was pushed under the table. We need to right the wrongs of the past, in addition to dealing with those of the present. Please join!

  • Stop starving Yemen. Stop threatening Korea
    Food, medicine, and water treatments are urgently needed in Yemen. Even more catastrophic would be a U.S.-initiated or U.S.-provoked nuclear attack relating to North Korea.

  • Save American Democracy by having McDonald's stores close on Election Day
    McDonald's employs about 400,000 people in the US. Many of them do not vote because of work obligations. You claim to be a true American Company. You could prove this to the world by closing your stores in the US during voting on election day and allowing your workers to vote. McDonald's is in a unique position to move other businesses by this action and any short term profits lost would likely be made up in long term customer sentiment gains and the value that a healthy US democracy provides your business. It is time for businesses that truly care about America to prove it and this is a unique opportunity for McDonald's to lead the way. So defend Democracy and prove it to us!

  • Relocation of Mailboxes
    We in the Northern Heights Subdivision believe that we are entitled to have our own individual mailboxes re-located to in front of each individual home like most communities in the area. We as a subdivision have contacted the Waynesville Post Office on numerous occasions about mail being placed in the wrong boxes and the theft of our mail. London Lane along with Lambert Lane have all mailboxes clustered together while other streets have their mailboxes located in front of their residences. We demand that the United States Postal Service in Waynesville MO allow us, the tax-paying homeowners, the right to to our own mailboxes in front of our homes, to ensure the correct delivery and reduction of theft.

  • Police Shooting Death Inquest Process
    On June 14, 2017, high school student Tommy Le, was fatally shot by King County sheriff’s deputy Cesar Molina. Tommy Le was unarmed. On October 12, 2017, King County Executive Dow Constantine ordered an inquest into the shooting. The inquest is structured so that one of King County’s own prosecuting attorneys introduces all witnesses and evidence to the jury. Presently, the family and their attorneys are merely observers in this one-sided exercise. This petition is to demand a voice for Tommy Le's family, by allowing their lawyers to speak to the inquest jury. This requires King County Executive Dow Constantine to modify the unfair rules governing the inquest.

  • Stand with the survivors
    I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I kept my secret for 55 years. With all the women coming forward, I feel their pain but I also feel the strength and pride of my “sisters”.

  • Equal Gender Public Officials
    A disproportionate number of men presently and historically have held office and controlled... nearly everything... including the powers of war and oppression. It is time to change to a system of equal gender rule.

    I have never seen a petition about these two specific issues together and I think it's about time one was created.

  • Demand Human Rights Education at Catholic Elementary and High Schools
    When I was in grammar school and high school, I was given no human rights education and no sexual education. People at my schools were also treated very differently based on gender. In high school, I was drugged and raped by a classmate. Being a child with no sex education and no awareness of my own human rights, I did not know that it was rape. I thought it was my fault, and did not even see it as the crime that it was. It took me 11 years to demand that people listen to me and acknowledge what happened to me for what it was: rape. I am still suffering from PTSD 12 years later. I urge you to sign my petition to prevent future children from suffering like I did. You can view an example of the type of curriculum I'd like to see implemented here: http://www.popcouncil.org/research/its-all-one-curriculum-guidelines-and-activities-for-a-unified-approach-to-

  • Girls' Martial Arts Program

  • Expel Roy Moore from the Senate
    This isn't about Democrats or Republicans, it's about decency and who we want making our laws. Moore stands accused of pedophilia. He also thinks Muslims shouldn't be allowed to hold public office and that being LGTBQ is a crime. Moore has shown, through his words and actions, that he is unfit for office and cannot be trusted to make laws that will impact the lives of all Americans. The measure I propose may sound extreme. Republicans have majorities in both houses of Congress so they don't need votes from Dems to keep the government running. Republicans also have the power to keep Moore out of the Senate should he win. I'm simply asking for clarity from both sides. With any luck Doug Jones will win and this petition won't matter. Just in case, we need to show what we stand for, what we value.
