2. Eliminate The California At-Will Employment Law 
California's "at-will" Employment Law that Several States have adopted, allows Employers to Terminate an Employee with or without notice AND with or without any cause or reason.
We, California Citizens believe this Law proves that TITLE II of The Civil Rights Act of 1964 (These Rights are Being Violated) AND that under The 14th Amendment of The United States Constitution for Equal Protection of The Law.
Furthermore, This Provision of Employment Law, upon Termination of an Employee does not authorize the terminated employee to invoke the right to appeal to Employer Superiors in writing.
Abortion is purposely taking the life of an unborn fetus. Abortion can lead to medical problems and anxiety problems.
We all have rights at the point of conception. When you choose to terminate the life of a human being, it is murder.
There is no faith or ideology that justifies this murderous and heinous act.
People do not understand that abortion leads to severe medical conditions. It is not a woman's choice to decide the life and death of another person.
4. Stop the Mandatory Termination of your Local Amercian Auto Dealer
A mandatory elimination of your local American Auto Dealer is unjust. The termination would be devastating to their community and the surrounding towns. Lost jobs, increased taxes, and the erosion of your local economy is inevitable. Your Dealer is not an expense to the Manufacturer or the Government.
Our Free Enterprise is being violated by the Governments' Socialistic views. The Manufacturer is also being manipulated, in are so called," Free Market". Take action to insure your American Rights and Freedom to make our own decisions!
5. Abolish All Hire at Will / Fire at Will States
We are enduring some pretty trying and challenging times here in the United States. I must ask you two questions, "Are you willing to take a chance and lose your job without cause"? And are you willing to sign a petition to overturn the laws that allow states (including yours) to employ individuals at will and fire at will?? Be clear, if you are employed at will, your employer really does not need good reason or cause to fire you. In almost EVERY every state, ( Montana is the only state which provides employees who meet the mandatory or subscribed "probationary period" from being targeted by employers and fired without cause), employers are at liberty to accept at-will employment policies. The unfortunate fact is having no policy from your employer that they will only fire workers where there is a good cause leaves you wide opened to being terminated without cause because you are employed at will.
I am a chief and prime example of one that was ultimately terminated in by my employer behind unfavorable actions and a lie of the wrongdoer.
The Salient fact reveals that the Human Resource Officer verbally stated .."if I had to choose your word over her word, I would choose her word ", (the wrongdoer). Termination followed. However, I was fired for something that had absolutely nothing to do with the relevant facts. I was further denied access to other corporate officials and did not have a clear chance to prevail.
Within four days following the employer's decision to terminate me, I received their offer consisting of severance pay, an offer to receive un insurance benefits, and a letter of recommendation, all in exchange for my signature to a resignation letter the company drafted. I choose not. Subsequently, I was issued a letter of right to sue from the EEO and found myself initiating a lengthy litigation process.
PLEASE SIGN THE RELEVANT PETITION. IT COULD BE YOU, YOUR SPOUSE, OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW AND LOVE. IT IS TIME FOR THIS LAW BE CHANGED!!
6. Termination, Prosecution and Conviction of Responsible Individual(s) of Zania's Cruelty
October 31, 2005
Mauled dog faces death after being left untreated at Lebanon Animal Control Shelter.
Seeking termination, prosecution and conviction of Josh Greer and individual(s) responsible for animal cruelty and abuse of Zania.
Zania, a 4-year-old black Labrador retriever, was a playmate to a 4-year-old boy living in Mt. Juliet. She was picked up Friday, October 14, 2005, for running loose and placed in the Lebanon Animal Control facility because Mt. Juliet has no facility of its own. Zania was placed in a pen on Saturday with three other dogs, who for several hours, continuously attacked her until she was found lying in a pool of blood Sunday afternoon.
Zania was removed from the pen, hosed off (to wash off all the blood), and left outside on the concrete floor. She lay on the cold (50 degrees), wet concrete until an anonymous phone call was made to the Director of the Humane Association of Wilson County, a nonprofit, private agency with no ties to Lebanon Animal Control.
The dog was lying apparently lifeless on the concrete floor inside a chain link fenced enclosure when the Director arrived. She discovered the dog was still alive and called the Police Department, who came with an animal control officer 30 minutes later. After another 30 minute delay, they took the dog to the Lebanon Animal Hospital. The Director confirmed with the animal control officer that Zania was a healthy dog when she was picked up. The animal control officers also confirmed they were aware Zania had been injured earlier by the other dogs, but had made the decision to let her recover on her own.
Dr. Craig, the attending veterinarian, verified Zania was in shock, had a subnormal temperature, blood loss and would not have survived over night if she had been left untreated at the animal control facility. Details of his report and pictures of Zania can be seen at:

http://www.tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20051020/NEWS01/510200410/1192/COUNTY.
When the story first came to light, Zania was facing leg amputation. Now, she is facing death because of the cruelty inflicted by Josh Greer.
According to Tennessee Code, Title 39 Criminal Offenses, Chapter 14 Offenses Against Property Part 2-Animals, under Section 39-14-202, Cruelty to animals:
(2) Fails unreasonably to provide necessary food, water, care or shelter for an animal in the person's custody;
(3) Abandons unreasonably an animal in the person's custody; and
(4) Transports or confines an animal in a cruel manner can be found committing an offense under this section and is a Class A misdemeanor.
In addition, 39-14-212 Aggravated cruelty to animals - (a) A person commits aggravated cruelty to animals when, with aggravated cruelty and with no justifiable purpose, such person intentionally kills or intentionally causes serious physical injury to a companion animal. Under this section, as of June, 2004, offenses carry felony level penalties. We believe these codes have been violated.
It is not acceptable or humane to place dogs with unknown histories in cages together especially with breeds known for fighting. Zania was denied shelter with no protection from the elements as she lay dying, compassion in her handling while in Josh Greer's and other animal control officers care, protection when she was locked and confined in a pen with a breed of animals known to fight with no means of escape or protection, and immediate vet care as she lay in critical condition. She was confined and abandoned in a cruel manner that now threatens her life.
Zania has suffered enough. Our prayers and thoughts are with Zania and her family. We respectfully ask that you act on behalf of Zania and other animals who have found themselves in similar situations to put a stop to the cruelty and abuse that exists at Lebanon Animal Control. Josh Greer and those individual(s) responsible for Zania's cruelty and abuse must be terminated. No justifiable purpose can be found in the reckless, cruel, and abusive manner in which the animal conrol officers behaved in the care, handling and decision making for Zania. We therefore petition that they be prosecuted and convicted to the fullest extent of the law.
On behalf of Zania and all animals, we thank you.
