  • We the People say vote NO for a new Supreme Court Justice to replace RBG at this time.
    You were very vocal and critical in 2016, when faced with the prior administration attempting to nominate a new Supreme Court Justice when the Honorable deceased Justice Scalia, needed to be replaced. Please listen to your own words. You did the right thing then, and now you have reversed your direction due to a self serving interest. When doing the right thing before, and you make an about face, It becomes the "WRONG THING". We The People want to know, why an about face for 2020? Please salvage the legacy and the dying wish of our Honorable Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Please do not let the 2020 GOP Senators be remembered in the history books as self serving and two faced. Please vote NO to ramrodding a new Supreme Court Justice. Please wait a short time and let the people choose.

  • Delay appointment of a new Supreme Court Justice
    We should not have a defeated President naming a Justice for life in the last few months of his term. McConnell blocked Obama’s Garland appointment in Obama’s last YEAR.

  • CEASE THE OVERPOLICING AND OCCUPATION OF THE 4TH WARD, KINGSTON,NY
    We stand together, as a community against your discriminatory policing in our communities targeting People of Color, who due to loss of life at the hands of police across the country are being retraumatized by Kingston's version of Stop & Frisk. We have seen lots of lip service and cosmetic change around police accountability from the state and county as well. However, from statements from the community as well as video, it’s going back to business as usual. Broken windows policing. Police cruising around under the guise of looking for suspected trouble, but really inciting violence and inducing trauma with “random searches” for issues as harmless as broken tail lights and loud mufflers, looking for guns and drugs as they have admitted publicly. This is the Kingston version of “Stop and Frisk”. Moreover, the people who are being victimized by stop & frisk tactics are reluctant to file complaints because they know from experience and historically, complaints lead to retaliation

  • Ban Private Online Proctoring in K-12 Schools
    In the midst of a pandemic, Big Tech is trying to enrich itself and invade our children’s privacy through new and untested online proctoring services. By scanning our children’s faces, IDs, and even their bedrooms, these online proctoring companies promise to end cheating forever. The choice is clear: surveillance has no place in our children’s lives. The Department of Education must protect kids’ privacy by banning private online test proctoring companies from K-12 schools. Online proctoring companies do exactly what they advertise to do: they collect invasive amounts of sensitive, private information, use new and untested technology to determine a child’s integrity, and create a permanent record of their behavior in their servers. By fudging the line between security and privacy, these firms are turning classrooms into a privacy threat. My first interaction with an online proctoring service was when I tried to take an online exam this past spring quarter. Within minutes, it was clear to me that this software had no place in the classroom. First, it asked my name, and then for government ID, and then to scan my face and retinas. As if that wasn’t enough, a company I had never heard of asked me to photograph my room, and that’s when I knew that this isn’t security software -- it’s straight-up spyware. Students aren’t criminals, and we shouldn’t be treated as such. It’s obvious that these services are dangerous in a college setting, but imagine how much worse it would be if they penetrated K-12 schools. Children would be forced to share mountains of sensitive, personal information with no oversight as to how it will affect their futures, including: - Biometric data like facial images, retina scans, and fingerprints - Citizenship status - Gender identity and expression - Weight, health conditions, and mental and physical disabilities - Online browsing history, internet searches, and interactions This technology is invasive for students of all ages, but especially inappropriate for kids under 18. Parents and children will be at the mercy of shadowy firms to determine their academic integrity, generating profiles for every child using invasive amounts of private information. If enough students and parents fight back against this move towards mass surveillance of young children, we can hold these companies accountable and protect kids’ privacy. Tell Betsy DeVos and the Department of Education: no more mass surveillance of children. Ban private online test proctoring companies from K-12 schools.

  • Organize non-partisan certified individuals to deliver absentee ballots to legally designated places
    Every citizen has the right to vote. With the Republicans sabotaging the Post Office and casting doubt upon its ability to deliver the absentee ballots, we citizens should be able to rely on certified individuals to pick up the ballots of those who cannot vote in person and bring in the votes. In states like Alabama that are closing down polls, using intimidation on voters who show up, and making citizens travel for long distances to get to the polls this can be the answer. We must mobilize quickly. Lets all help to get in the vote!!! We can do this! We can protect our democracy with a new American citizen Pony Express!

  • Include National Rental Assistant during COVID
    While the unemployment rates have skyrocketed, so has the amount of money owed to landlords. Simply making it harder to evict people is NOT stopping the bills from overflowing! Many people and families will not be able to catch up on their rent and will be evicted. Not only will this cause a crash in the economy but the homeless population will supersede anything we’ve seen thus far. Housing is a basic human right and our country must help with this atrocity that can be prevented with proper steps.
