Mandatory auto size reductionsThe auto industry has endangered the public by producing larger, wider, and heavier vehicles.

Stop US Cellular's Residential Cell Tower ConstructionWe are a group of concerned neighbors and constituents from all walks of life who stand together against this absurd cell tower construction. Our neighborhood would see property values plummet by upwards of 20% according to some studies. We believe that the homes of our neighborhood are more important than better 4g coverage. We also believe that the church they are building the tower on has been taken for a ride because English is not their first language. We will not be bullied by a corporation and we will not allow our neighbors to be bullied either.136 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Ryan Bennett

Stop Fake NewsWe are a group of concerned citizens who are alarmed by the proliferation of fake news on the Internet and want to help combat this problem. Currently, many American get their news from Internet sites that include misinformation or downright lies. The spread of false news outlets is poisoning political discourse as well as affecting world events in unpredictable and dangerous ways. We believe that the Internet needs to adapt and provide a means to assist people in differentiating news based on facts from fake news that is written with the intent to deceive or for entertainment purposes.275 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Larry Piegza

Tell Twitter to ban Donald Trump.Donald Trump's tweets are ill-conceived and at times dangerous to American foreign policy and world stability. He embarrasses not only himself but the entire country. This type of unfiltered social media vomit by the president-elect is very worrisome and a problem for our Democracy. We need to take action soon before any more damage is done to American credibility and policy. Tweeting about increasing American nuclear capability is the last straw.80 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jeffery Pitts

Our goal is to submit this petition to the seven major motion picture studios to show them that Americans are tired of corruption in the cinema.

Stand up for scienceThis week, we went toe-to-toe with Trump over his intimidation of government scientists -- and Trump backed down. Now, scientists are mobilizing to block Scott Pruitt’s confirmation in the Senate based on his clear anti-science record -- and they need our support to swing crucial Senate votes against Trump’s nominee.749 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Brant Olson

Quick Signature: Donald Trump Has NO Mandate!Donald Trump does not have a mandate to enact an extremist agenda aimed at destroying some of our most critical government programs and institutions, including healthcare, public schools, and civil rights. Taken together, President-Elect Trump’s appointment choices to date present a significant threat to our democracy, to the people of our country, and to our economy. The short list includes: REPRESENTATIVE TOM PRICE, nominated for Secretary of Health and Human Services, who has made dismantling the Affordable Care Act a landmark goal of his political career; BETSY DEVOS, a leading proponent of schools vouchers, who, as Education Secretary, would be in a position to chip away at one of the most fundamental cornerstones of civil society: public education; SENATOR JEFF SESSIONS, nominated for U.S. Attorney General, who has record of racist rhetoric and was previously rejected by the Senate Judiciary Committee over his embrace of policies that would undermine basic civil rights; ANDY PUZDER, nominated for Labor Secretary, who has consistently prioritized corporate profits over the local economy and welfare of workers; STEVE BANNON, selected to be incoming chief White House strategist, who is a propagandist for white supremacy, and would bring sexism, anti-semitism, homophobia, racism and transphobia with him to the Oval Office. Selecting cabinet leaders who have a history of being anti-healthcare, anti-public school, anti-civil rights, anti-worker, and pro-white supremacy is not the America that the majority of Americans voted for. Remind Senate leaders that Donald Trump does not have a mandate, and tell them to stop his appointments now!211 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Kristin, MomsRising.org

Stop Antietam Cable's MonopolyIt's enough. The people of Hagerstown need to break the monopoly held by Antietam cable. Prices continue to go up as service options and reliability decline. My bill has gone up $30 as my service level was eliminated and I am forced to pay for a higher level of service. We need our service for school, work, and entertainment. Please sign this petition and pass it on.2,065 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Stop Antietam Cable's Monopoly

Raise The Music Streaming RoyaltyI'm a musician, and I've made a penny per stream from my YouTube video. Video and audio streaming companies make the lion's share of the streaming profit while the artists get practically nothing. Artists should get at least 20 cents a stream clear. Musicians work for years to master their performances; we deserve to be paid fairly for our efforts.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robbie Alan

@realDonaldTrump: Reject Bahraini money for National Day Celebration at Trump HotelThe government of Bahrain has reserved the Trump International Hotel for celebration of its annual national day. This raises serious conflict-of-interest questions about the incoming president's administration, including how this event could affect US policy towards Bahrain. [1] Torture and restrictions on freedom of expression are business as usual in Bahrain. If Donald Trump lived in Bahrain, he might be in prison like Nabeel Rajab who was imprisoned for tweets that criticized the Bahraini monarchy. [2] This summer the main Bahraini opposition party was dissolved and nearly all of its leaders are now imprisoned or detained. [3] The President-elect should not accept payment from any foreign governments, especially repressive ones like Bahrain which the U.S. should continue to criticize for human rights abuses. If President-elect Trump fails to reject these payments and divest from his companies, it will increase suspicions that US foreign policy under the Trump administration is “bought and paid for”. Ask your representatives in Congress to urge Donald Trump to reject Bahrain's payment and divest from his companies by signing our petition.
