Bangladesh, Drop Charges Against Labor Activist!

$

0

Bangladeshi clothing factories are extremely unsafe. 500 workers have died in fires, which have been attributed to basic fire safety items such as fire escapes and sprinklers being absent from the buildings, and companies padlocking the exists to stop theft. Workers are paid very little and have no rights.  

Kalpona Akter, a Bangladeshi labor activist, has courageously dedicated her life to fight for workers' rights. She has experience in the factories, sewing clothes for American brands from the time she was twelve-years-old. 

Unfortunately, garment company owners have a lot of power in the government.

In 2010, Akter was put in jail and severely beaten after she led a campaign to get more protection from the fires. Although she was released, she now has seven remaining criminal charges, which can lead to strict punishment and long jail time. 

Please tell the Bangladesh government to drop the charges against Kalpona Akter. No one should be punished for fighting for human rights.

Tell OSHA to clamp down on companies physically abusing employees

OSHA, in failing to seriously look at companies like Home Depot, which have the highest track record of hurting employees along with Walmart, is effectively KNOWINGLY creating major tax liabilities in the future for American taxpayers who will be saddled with thousands of workers injured or even killed directly or indirectly as a result of poor work planning and reckless scheduling on the part of high level management who know better. In addition,corporate lawyers assist these companies in the abuse and deliberate endangerment of worker safety.

Companies such as these force workers to work in capacities which assure further injury to the employee and to face harassment by their peers even with proper medical documentation of the health concerns.Many of the initial injuries such as musculoskeletal trauma, back injuries, knee, foot and leg injuries are brought on simply by lack of caring by management at the highest levels in these companies who demand their agendas be done even if itmeans crippling employees for life.

You the taxpayer will have to foot the bill to support many workers who become disabled and are forced to apply for SSDI. One day workers may be killed as a result of exhaustion

Stop false and misleading advertisements

There are current advertisement laws in place now, but they are not strong enough. Businesses are trying to take advantage of people by hiding disclaimers in small writing or someplace other than the advertisements in hopes that people won't find out. 

I support plain, bold, advertisements. Business owners should be required to make the disclaimers obvious on advertisments so that no one wastes their time and or money.

Support Small Local Businesses!

When you buy from a small local business, you are not helping a CEO buy a third vacation home, or a multinational corporation make record profits or avoid taxes. You are helping a local family put food on the table, pay their mortgage, and build a better life for themselves and others in your community. The customers of small local businesses aren't just their customers, they are the lifeblood of their business as well as their friends, neighbors, and community.

Pledge to help support small local businesses in your community!

College sports has been jolted in recent years by numerous ethics and rules violations by large and small college athletic programs.  These programs are teaching young persons to win at all costs, regardless of rules or long-term consequences to the health of players.

If you agree that a change is in order in these programs that are run by the almighty dollar, please sign this petition and urge the NCAA and college administrations to put education and ethics first!

Stop employers from requiring a potential employee to be bilingual.

$

After searching for employment for many months I noticed 95% of the job postings read you must be bilingual. Most require English- Spanish speaker. Well I felt that was a form of discrimination being we are in AMERICA where our primary language is English. Why should we be required to learn to speak Spanish? This is our Country when we go to Mexico or any other Country our needs are not accommodated by them learning to speak English, we must learn to speak their language or we will be lost. It should be against the law for a employer to require that you speak Spanish in order to be considered for a job opportunity. They should learn to speak ENGLISH. So if you agree please sign this petition to STOP and make it ILLEGAL to require a potential employee to be bilingual.

Take America Back At The Gas Pump

The felonoious excuses for the high prices at the gas pumps. The wind is blowing to hard in the Gulf Of Mexico, The unrest in The Middle East, how about the Speculators on Wall Street, manipulating the price of gas and oil.  The list can go on adinfinitum.  The bottom line, GREED.  The price will keep going up as long as We The People let it. Gas goes up, food, clothing, medical supplies, all of our stables goes up.  The American People are driving less and The United States is producing more oil than ever before in our history.  I  take responsbility for some of the high gas prices because I used to sit and say, nothing I can do about it. I was wrong. I am hoping, you The People of This Country will get a hold of your representation in Congress and sign this petition, to let them know we have had enough. Lets prove, We The People are more powerful than big business and lobbyists are one signature at a time.

Stop banks from making you pay for a car they sold for less than it was worth

Stop the banks from taking a car, telling you they would sell it for the blue book value, and then selling it for an extremely low price, and making you pay off the remaining amount!!!  I don’t think it is right when your car gets repossessed ( I gave mine back voluntarily) and the bank sells it for less than it was worth just because they have your signature on a piece of paper that says you will pay the remaining amount of the loan.  They auction off the car for any amount of money and make you pay the remaining amount.  They don’t care that you would have paid it if you could, that you gave them back the property and it is worth a blue book amount but they know you will pay, so they just give the car away.  If your house gets repossessed they don’t make you pay the remaining amount of the loan.  Why do car loans get to do this?  That is what I’m going to court to try to put a stop to.  How many of you out there have had this sort of thing happen to you?  Please help me put a stop to this by signing my petition!  Thank you!!!
