Dear Walter Probably I am just missing it, but before signing I wanted to read the actual petition, but following the link while I found a page to sign, I could not find the actual petition --what am i missing? every button I push gets me back to the same page, with the signature submission but no petition (that I can see anyway)
I send this to the list since it is possible that I am not the only one with this experience.
