Make it illegal to have plan events during alabama games.I almost missed the game yesterday and this social injustice must stop. As men we are constantly bombarded with events that are designed to keep us from enjoying football. That is unconstitutional. As husbands that love our wives, we get put in a very uncomfortable position, and have to tag along at these unconstitutional events. Roll tide, and thank you in advance1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Donny Day

Equifax Protection ActI am starting this petition because credit worthiness impacts many facets of all of our lives per Attorney General Eric Schneiderman from New York State. It not only impacts whether you can obtain a loan, but also how much you can borrow, what your interest rate will be, if you have to place a deposit for utilities, insurance rates, whether you can rent an apartment, employment opportunities and more. This is a serious loss of personal information that has impacted more than half of the American public and can for years to come.92 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kevin King

Legalize Marijuana in IndianaAbout legalizing a plant that helps people with all kinds of problems. I have used opioids for the severe pain that I am in all the time. They do not work, they are very expensive, very addicting, and they kill. People can get off of these deadly meds if they could use cannabis. Big Pharma and the people that buy into it are killing us. Please Free the cannabis.1,130 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by glenda miller

Tell your State AG: Join the investigation of the Bayer-Monsanto mergerIf Bayer and Monsanto's merger goes through, the new company would be the world’s largest vegetable seed company. It would control seeds for many of the crops we eat regularly, like broccoli, carrots, and onions. In short, we’d be giving a single corporation unprecedented control of our food supply. We can’t let the future of our food system be handed over to Bayer and Monsanto. Help stop the Bayer-Monsanto merger: Take action NOW!144 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

Tell the Senate Judiciary Committee: Block Trump's lifetime judicial appointments!Trump has nominated 27 federal judges in his first six months. And these nominees have a history of championing the causes of right-wing extremists -- from opposing affirmative action to claiming President Obama was not born in the U.S. If these nominees are confirmed, they could shred our civil rights and environmental protections for decades to come. We need your help to stop them! Sign the petition to the Senate Judiciary Committee: Stop Trump from stacking the courts with extremist judges!176 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

Tell the company that owns Olive Garden: Say NO to the use of routine antibioticsDarden -- the owner of Olive Garden -- is still refusing to adopt a responsible policy to protect public health by limiting the use of antibiotics by its meat suppliers. Those antibiotics get into our food supply. They fuel the rise of antibiotic-resistant infections in people -- one of our nation's leading public health threats. In two weeks, Darden’s shareholders will vote on a proposal to prohibit its suppliers from giving antibiotics to animals that are not sick. We need your help to ramp up pressure on Darden to act! Tell the owner of Olive Garden: Stop serving meat that is raised with routine antibiotics!231 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

Protect Michigan Honesty and Transparency in ElectionsLately, many people seem to run for public office to enhance their own brand and promote narrow business interests rather than from a passion for using their skills and abilities for the public good. One way to give the public more information about individuals with selfish interests is to publish their financial information in an easily viewed and understood format. They want to use our tax dollars, so we should know what how they pay theirs!12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Byron Haskins
