We feel it is necessary for companies to write "palm oil" on their product labels and not the other 295 names which mean the same thing. Palm oil is connected to many shady operations, including child labor and poaching. Also, if you want to see the 295 names, they are here: http://www.palmoilinvestigations.org/names-for-palm-oil.html

Saving the Republic

We have a right to know he is not hiding something dishonest

Many citizens want to know why these documents remain hidden. I personally fear that Trump is in conflict with (and will continue to have) domestic and foreign conflicts of interest and which will imperil our nation's fiscal security and physical security.

Donald Trump has not been honest with the American people about his tax returns. Without that knowledge, there is no way for Americans to know if he has committed crimes which would keep him from assuming the office of the President.

Do you relish a cup of tea when you wake up in the morning? Did you know that the tea you are drinking could be produced by workers who suffer slavery-like conditions? Tea workers in Assam earn a meagre wage of 126 Rupees a day, which is less than 2 British pounds and lower than the minimum wage mandated by national law. In addition, they live in appalling conditions, with poor access to basic services like water, health and sanitation, which expose them and their families to malnutrition and preventable deaths. You can help to break this cycle! Bring digniTEA to those who bring you tea!

Our democracy functions best when we we have a strong, diverse set of sources for media. But runaway media consolidation threatens that, and puts power in the hands of a few corporate executives. That’s why we’re alarmed at this week’s news that AT&T wants to merge with Time Warner -- and it’s why we must immediately respond by showing our grassroots power to stop this merger. With media consolidation at an all-time high, we all pay the price with higher bills for fewer choices -- and media consolidation makes it harder for new and diverse talent and content producers to access the platforms they need. We can’t let this anti-consumer, anti-democracy deal go through. Add your name now to say NO to the monopolistic AT&T/Time Warner Merger.

For far too long there have been too many problems with the AEE. The most recent crisis, an island-wide blackout lasting a FULL week for many. In a TRUE democracy, we should have the choice between various companies competing to deliver LOWER rates, modern technology, real customer service and better salaries for their employees. The goal of this petition is to change our present situation: a virtual monopoly of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA - AEE). We need the freedom to choose who provides the services we want at the rates we choose. Puerto Rico deserves only the best. Everyone who does sign this petition remember our goal is to provide solutions to lower your energy bill rates. You may not agree with healthy competition, however if you agree with the fact that the government of Puerto Rico should find various ways to implement LOWER RATES for our energy bill, you should definitely sign this petition.

My 3-year-old son recently came down with thrush, impetigo, and hand, foot, & mouth disease all at once after visiting a McDonald's play place. This is the 4th time he has gotten very sick after visiting one. He has only been about 10 times total, so that is nearly half. I was shocked when trying to file a complaint with the health department to find that they are not required to inspect restaurant play places.

We must stand up to the fossil fuel industry's attempts to violate freedom of the press, freedom to peacefully protest, our civil rights, and to destroy the environment.
