You’re the first to know
The White House has just launched We the People on WhiteHouse.gov and you’re the first to know.
We the People is a new way for Americans to create and sign petitions calling on the Obama Administration to take action on a range of important issues.
Learn more and get started:
We the People is easy to use. Here’s how it works:
- Create or Sign a Petition: Anyone 13 or older can create or sign a petition on WhiteHouse.gov asking the Obama Administration to take action on a range issues.
- Build Support and Gather Signatures for your Petition: It’s up to you to build support for a petition. Use email, Facebook, Twitter and word of mouth to tell your friends, family and coworkers about the petitions you care about.
- The White House Reviews and Responds: If a petition reaches 5,000 within 30 days, it will be reviewed by a standing group of White House officials, referred to any other relevant policymakers and an official response will be issued.
The idea of petitioning the White House or the government isn’t new, but this tool is. The White House has never tried anything like this before, and as a result, we’ll probably have to make some adjustments as we go. As we do, we’ll keep you posted on the White House blog.
So think about an issue you care about, who you can reach out to join you, and get started:

P.S. Help spread the word about this new tool by forwarding this email to anyone else who would find We the People interesting.

Uhh like a…… standing group of White House officials will review it…that don’t sound to good if you ask me…..just knowing it has something to do with the White House kinda turns me off…….Obama administration to take action…where the hell have they been all these years….and a year before election they say they will take action ?? And you believe this ??? ” Take action “….it did not say ‘ to help.’ solve an issue… I don’t even like the word action….heard it to many times during all these past years with the fake wars. …think I will pass on this one……..
There’s already a petition about Occupy Movement. Check it out (it is the one that has the most signatures thus far!)

We need to keep trying to set up a petition on the housing issues that are being ignored by Washington, incumbents and wannabes both. Keep checking. Also Credo and Move on has petitions. May look into that too?
The only politician I know will surely sign that contract is Dr. Ron Paul – he is a man of his word and his actions reflect that, check his voting record. Dr. Ron Paul for President 2012.
Tried to go onto the website but it says it is under maintenance …. damn … I wanted to get started
I hope they are not just looking for enemies of the police state, to get intel….names and adresses! I will not respond…..when did the White House start giving a shit anyway….after how many million foreclosures?
We need a petition to halt all fraudclosures….they are illegal….there is fraud in all of our loans and they are all null and void…they never lent us any money…the U.S. TAXPAYERS funded and paid for everything……none of these PRETENDER LENDERS have any skin in the game…The only skin in the game any of them have, and that includes the GSE’s is that of INVESTOR…….IN THE MONEY FLOW………THEY DO NOT OWN OUR HOMES….THERE IS AN ILLEGAL AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST THAT EXISTS IN EVERY GSE BACKED LOAN…..BECA– USE THEY ARE ALSO AN INVESTOR…WE THE PEOPLE PAID FOR THESE HOMES AND WE OWN OUR HOMES…..FREE AND CLEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good morning Ivent ….. Did you go onto the site and post a petition?
Not yet, I have to draft one first…..We also need a petition that all politicians running for office MUST SIGN A LEGAL BINDING CONTRACT WITH WE THE PEOPLE…….IF THEY BREAK THE CONTRACT THEY MUST RESIGN…..ALL CANDIDATES, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT….AND WE NEED AN AMENDMENT…..NO CAMPAIGN FUNDING BY WALL STREET……OR ANYONE BUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE……..NO POLITICIANS ARE ALLOWED TO INVEST IN THE PEOPLES DEBT EITHER…….WE MUST COIN AND ISSUE OUR OWN CURRENCY AS WELL VIA STATE OWNED BANKS….WATCH TUESDAYS KEISER REPORT……
