Bruce Horowitz wrote in the USA Today article, Starbucks petition takes on government shutdown:
The nation’s coffee kingpin will become the weekend headquarters for folks who want to sign petitions that encourage lawmakers to reopen the government and reach a budget deal…. The petition asks officials to:
• Reopen the government.
• Pay our national debts on time.
• Pass a long-term budget deal by the end of 2013.
Consumers also will be able to sign digitally beginning Friday at ComeTogetherPetition.com or “like” the petition’s Facebook post, which will count as a signature to the petition. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2013/10/10/starbucks-howard-schultz-shutdown/2958835/
