We are calling for a moratorium on ALL new transmission line projects in Illinois until we can evaluate ALL lines collectively to assess the actual needs, benefits, and especially the costs to Illinois landowners, taxpayers, and consumers.

Petition to allow and support the use of Drugs and Surgery in Chiropractic and help to promote and progress this growing profession. We need to stop the philosophical petitions against the use of drugs and surgery in chiropractic in New Mexico and protect its validity in the medical community. The last thing we need is to keep chiropractic philosophical/non-surgical/drugless, as it will never gain credibility amongst MD's and DO's. Help voice your concern by letting our congress men and women know that you are "FOR" SB 471. Please sign this peteition to vote "YES" for this Bill.

“Just because something isn't a lie does not mean that it isn't deceptive. A liar knows that he is a liar, but one who speaks mere portions of truth in order to deceive is a craftsman of destruction.”

Please urge Twin Cities Talk Radio 1130 AM to fire Bob Davis for his outrageous comments about the victims of the Sandy Hook massacre.

Peter King (U.S. Rep, N.Y.) says because of cuts in Homeland Security (sequestration), we didn't have enough cameras at the Boston Marathon. We have plenty of cameras. There have to be at least 100,000 photos and videos at the site of this terrorist act. The authorities have to go through all of it. And they will find evidence. But U.S. Rep. Peter King trying to game this tragedy into some kind of security lapse is abominable. And to add more security (cameras, etc.) under some elusory theory of Homeland Security, defies common sense.

Stop the Real Estate Tax Assessment in Philadelphia - Enough is Enough

MIT recently named their new research building after the Koch brothers and accepted their donation – tinged, corrupt money derived from destroying the environment. Let's let MIT's president know how repulsive and irresponsible these acts are!

Dear Administrator McCarthy, Honey bees, native bees and other pollinators are responsible for one out of every three bites of food we eat. Many fruits and vegetables, including apples, blueberries, strawberries, carrots and broccoli, as well as almonds and coffee, rely on bees. These beneficial insects are critical in maintaining our diverse food supply. U.S. beekeepers have been consistently losing 40-100 percent of their hives. Widespread use of a new class of toxic pesticides, neonicotinoids, is a significant contributing factor. In addition to killing bees outright, research has shown that even low levels of these dangerous pesticides impair bees' ability to learn, to find their way back to the hive, to collect food, to produce new queens, and to mount an effective immune response. Already, 15 countries have imposed a two-year restriction on the use of several of these chemicals. However, the EPA continues to ignore scientists -- even those employed by the EPA -- and has delayed action until 2018. We request an immediate moratorium on the use of neonicotinoid pesticides. Bees can't wait five more years – they are dying now. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has the power and responsibility to protect our pollinators. Our nation's food system depends on it.

The New York Times knew about the National Security Agency's rabid overreach and expanding list of abuses — and killed the 2004 story that would have exposed it. As a result, what's supposed to be our nation's best paper spoonfed us lies about the NSA and its activities until the Guardian's Snowden revelations in 2013 — giving us almost a decade of cover-ups while the NSA carried out its illegal and unconstitutional crimes! We denounce the paper's actions and demand top editors stick by writers like James Risen as they continue to expose that coverup and champion NSA reform now!
