Many people in the greater Madison community are concerned after the events of January 26, 2017, and the Chancellor's lack of appropriate response to the white nationalist group that is attempting to form on campus. The safety of ALL community members should be the University of Wisconsin's top priority, not oppressive political moves.

It is time we ended the divisive political and social fights over civil rights that we are all entitled to. We need to end discrimination in all forms, and extend justice and humanity to all residents of the United States, whether citizen or not.

Trump's executive orders to ban Moslems is illegal.

The sooner we stop Donald Trump the less we will need to have to repair for the decades that follow.

Unfair ..biased..family courts co-parent who interfere and abuse fathers rights..parental alienation is child abuse!!

The bills that the Minnesota legislature are proposing I feel are infringing on our first amendment rights. They trying to make it hard for the people to assemble peacefully by increasing the penalties on the protesters. The bills the Minnesota legislature are numbered HF55, HF322, HF390, and SF148.

End the Rohingyan Genocide.

MSNBC recently announced that Kellyanne Conway will not be invited back to one of its most popular programs, "Morning Joe." And, earlier this week, the Office of Government Ethics formally requested an investigation into whether Conway violated standards of conduct by promoting Ivanka Trump's products while being interviewed on Fox News' "Fox & Friends." Falsehoods rebranded as "alternative facts" and unethical product plugs for Trump family's businesses have no place in real news. Kellyanne Conway is not the only problem. But she's often called to clean up for the lies and deceptions of her boss and colleagues—and we have to start somewhere in showing that we won't tolerate lies from the Trump administration. Let's start an online movement imploring the press, including NBC, ABC, and CBS to stop providing a podium to Trump's spokespeople—starting with Kellyanne Conway—from which they can spread falsehoods. Together, we can help keep the vulnerable Fourth Estate strong in the face of an administration that seeks to dismantle it. We can't let Donald Trump destroy factually-correct journalism.

On Friday, civil rights hero and longtime congressman John Lewis, who organized the March on Washington as a student and whose skull was broken by police as he crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge, called Trump's election illegitimate and said we would not attend the inauguration. Predictably, Donald Trump attacked Rep. Lewis. And since then, in the past 24 hours, the number of Congress members who have said they'd join Representative Lewis and skip the inauguration has grown to nearly twenty. Thank you Representatives Blumenauer and Schrader for joining them! "It will be the first one that I miss since I've been in Congress," Lewis said. "You cannot be at home with something that you feel that is wrong, is not right." Rep. Lewis has said that he cannot see Trump as a "legitimate president" because of the now widely understood effort of Russia to influence November's election on behalf of Trump. Every member of Congress has a choice: stand with Rep. Lewis or stand with Trump. Sign the petition—tell your members of Congress to skip the inauguration. Rep. Lewis has shown yet again that when a leader takes a courageous action, others follow. If more members of Congress join Rep. Lewis and skip the inauguration, we can strengthen the power of the opposition. Thank you Representatives Blumenauer and Schrader for standing strong and boycotting Trump's inauguration. Let's join them and show the power of the opposition movement. Democratic lawmakers must boycott Trump's inauguration lest they normalize and legitimize an unhinged demagogue who's an abject threat to our nation.

Congressman John Lewis is a Civil Rights hero; we are indebted to him for his decades of activism and moral courage, from Bloody Sunday to today. Donald Trump’s attacks on Congressman Lewis are unconscionable, and force all of us to ask ourselves: which side are you on? We stand with John Lewis. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton has spent her lifetime standing up for the dignity of women, people of color and the residents of the District of Columbia. We respectfully urge her to stand with John Lewis and against Trump’s bigotry and hate by not attending Trump’s inauguration this week.

I am one of many of thousands of great fathers who have foreseen the ugly battle to fight for custody of their own DNA child. It is unfair and biased for the states to give full custody to the mother and not to the father because parental alienation is a thing. It is not just women who are abused by this; most custody cases are fathers being alienated and forced to go weeks, months, and years without seeing their children because they have to fight for the right to their child, which discriminates against male rights. Sign this petition to push for a movement in the White House, and state legislators to have it set in stone that a mother and father automatically have 50/50 custody of their own DNA child at birth.

Although it takes two to create a child, our system has been broken for far too long. Men have been discriminated against, defamed, and falsely accused of abuse to gain sympathy by the mother. We need to change this and implement this necessary parenting plan before more children suffer the loss of deprived relationships with their fathers.
