Rep. Herbert Adams (D) of Portland has sponsored legislation to preserve or create "public interest payphones" (PIPs) in designated areas where a lack of phone access poses a risk to residents' safety, health, or welfare. His bill follows similar actions from Alaska to Indiana to save the venerated pay phone when it is deemed in the public's best interest to do so.

I took the liberty of creating a petition on this cause. I'm going to contact representative Adams as soon as possible with the URL. I think this is a very noble and worthy cause, and i urge all of you to sign it if you believe the same. I also urge you to use your real names. (In order for it to hold up from a legal standpoint)

It won't, you need a physically signed petition, anybody can put whatever they want on the web.
