This bill potentially weakens the FCC's ability to ensure that all Americans have equal access to the Internet. The language of this bill handcuffs the FCC from acting to prohibit corporate ISPs from enacting measures that would restrict fair access to the Internet for gain.

Don Blankenship has done enough harm to this state and it is an insult to the families of the deceased miners that he remains enshrined in the Marshall University Lewis College of Business Hall of Fame.

Last year, 4 million Americans spoke out for net neutrality -- crucial protections for free speech and fair treatment online. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) heard us and passed the strongest Open Internet rules ever. Now, cable company lobbyists are pressuring Congress to pass a bill blocking the FCC from enforcing its own rules, including net neutrality. And if H.R. 2666 passes, these billion dollar corporations will be free to price gouge consumers, extort companies that do business online, and slow down service for everyone. We can’t let that happen. We can’t let Congress get in the way of the FCC’s pro-consumer mission. If H.R. 2666 passes, the FCC would have no way to punish corporations when they treat us unfairly, jack up prices, or hit us with unscrupulous surcharges. That’s an awful deal for us, but it’s a dream come true for Comcast and Verizon’s bottom line. That’s why they’re calling in every favor they can to pass this bill. They’re hoping their lobbyists can overrule the 4 million Americans who called on the FCC to protect net neutrality. But if we speak out now as loudly as we did back then, we can stop Big Cable in their tracks - and save net neutrality. They’re trying to ram their wishlist through Congress before anyone notices -- so your representatives need to know you’re watching closely.

We cannot allow a foreign government to discriminate against Americans in their own country. Although they are targeting Cuban-Americans, Cuban-Americans are Americans like all other Americans who are not being banned from travelling to Cuba via ships.

Hepatitis C nearly killed me. In 2014, I received a liver transplant. I was fortunate to have an insurance plan that paid for all of my related healthcare, as well as the Sovaldi-based medicine that cured my HCV infection. Over 3 million Americans are infected, most of them unable to afford Gilead Sciences $1,000 per pill price.

Jon, Your impact on the American people cannot be overstated. While the host of the Daily Show, you were a reassuring voice of hope, justice, and common sense for many millions of ordinary people in the face of demoralizing establishment politics and corruption. This election is critical to the future of this country. Bernie Sanders is the only candidate who represents the average American, working to end discrimination, improve wages, provide universal healthcare, protect the environment and ensure a brighter future. With your help, Bernie can win the White House and take back the government from the wealthy donors and super PACs. Please publicly endorse Bernie Sanders.

Microsoft – a self-proclaimed leader in diversity – is planning to give the Trump-led RNC at least $500,000! Not only that, but they’re planning to provide the Trump-led RNC with all of its tech support needs for free. Trump, who's suggesting his supporters riot if he doesn't win the Republican nomination, has been running a campaign built on violent rhetoric, racially charged imagery, and paranoid conspiracy theories. Just last month, he offered to pay the legal fees for a supporter of his who sucker-punched a peaceful Black protester. And last week, a teenage girl was pepper-sprayed while being a called ‘n**ger lover’ by a Trump supporter at his rally. Microsoft has a history-making choice right now. Once they start writing checks, they are committing to support the platform of someone threatening riots at the convention. After hundreds of thousands of you demanded action, Coca-Cola announced it is terminating its financial sponsorship of the RNC – now it's time for Microsoft to follow suit and dump Trump.

Spanish Fork does not need another Walmart, even a Neighborhood Market, at 2550 East and US Highway 6, Spanish Fork, UT, This is a duplication of services that is within 3 miles of itself. This is unnecessary, and it shows poor judgment on Walmart's part to think that after closing more than 100 Walmarts around the country in January 2016, that Spanish Fork would allow them to expand further.

For years, the Koch brothers’ corporate and political network has been harmful to Pennsylvania. Their billionaire egos are keeping working people from seeing higher wages. Their big-money influence made for a serious budget crisis. The last thing Pennsylvania needs is two out-of-touch billionaires who hurt the ability of working people to get ahead.

This month, we updated to 1.9 with a nice, new world with new features such as elytras, the mending and frost walker enchantments, and a new combat system, among others. While some server aspects are still the same as in 1.8, a few things have changed: most notably the town upkeep prices and the shop plugin. We ask colorfulchew to bring back the chest shop plugin for these reasons: The existing spawn shops monopolize the economy and do not promote any competition whatsoever, the chest shops would promote competition, encourage economic growth, and encourage people, rich and poor, to spend money on buying things from people they trust, and that more than 90% of other towny servers have the chest shop plugin or similar. The first reason why the chest shop plugin exists is that the shops at spawn monopolize the economy, which inhibits competition from occurring and prevents competition from occurring, which is essential for a healthy economy. Back in the 1.8 server, there were chest shops in most major towns, and these shops always had plenty of things in stock and never had any issues of money shortages due to people selling things to them. With this new spawn shops, money's always running out in those shops because people are selling too much stuff to them, which prevents others from stocking the shop with materials people need, unlike chest shops, where the owner of the shop can just stock the shop by filling up the chest and are able to have greater control on how much people can sell to them (i.e. diamonds by filling 26 of the 27 chest slots with dirt so they can only sell up to 64 diamonds, therefore preventing bankruptcy from occurring). Competition between the various town/nation shops ensured that the shops stayed on top of things and kept prices steady. The second reason why chest shops should be brought back is that they encourage economic growth, competition, and encourage people of all kinds to spend their money in shops that they trust, which the spawn shops do not provide. Back in 1.8, towns with chest shops were prosperous and many people visit these towns every day. These towns had beautiful spawns and a few towns even had malls where players would be able to rent a shop space to open up their chest shop, which in turns generates more extra revenue for the town (which would also help with paying the town's upkeep, which is 10 times more than in the previous map). Towns were constantly competing against each other for having the best shop on the server, which kept prices steady and people flocking into towns to spend their money. Finally, people went to shops that were owned by people that they trust, something that wouldn't occur in an economy with just one single store at spawn. The third and final reason why chest shops would return is that many other towny servers, small and large, have the chest shop plugins or similar plugins. These servers have bustling market economies, where prices are set freely by supply and demand with little government intervention. Like the 1.8 Scarlet, towns were bustling with activity, people coming and going to spend their money at the town shops and in some cases deciding to join that particular town where all of their favorite shops are located. A few of these servers can have more than 100 players online in peak hours, which shows all the activity encouraged by those server's chest shop-filled free market economies. In conclusion, in order to provide a better economy and promote competition, economic growth (especially in towns), and fix the problem of not being able to sell things to shops due to lack of money in the shop's bank, we ask that the Chest Shop plugin (which has been updated to 1.9 by the way) to be brought back to the server. Towns would be more prosperous and active, which in turn would keep more people on the server longer and boost player counts as well as vote counts. The owners of the chest shops would be able to set prices at levels where supply and demand would be at equilibrium and solve the shop stocking issue, both of which the current spawn shops would not be able to do flawlessly. We want to be able to sell things without having to deal with the shops running out of money, and we want to be able to buy things from actual shops in towns/nations run by actual people, and not by some random NPC's siting behind a counter like it was back in 1.8. Please bring the chest shops plugin back.

North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory signed into law HB2, a sweepingly broad bill that voids LGBT nondiscrimination ordinances statewide and revokes the right of transgender citizens to use public restrooms based on gender identity. Apple has invested tens of millions of dollars in North Carolina building massive data centers and solar farms. One year ago, Tim Cook said that Apple would be "standing up to oppose" state laws legalizing discrimination and attacking gender equality. Ask Tim Cook to make good on his word and publicly announce Apple's adamant opposition to HB2 and plans to reallocate future business expansion if the legislature does not repeal this law. Please sign this petition and ask that Apple to keep its promise and stand with the citizens of North Carolina in support of equality for all people.

Donald Trump has received nearly $2 billion in free earned media so far in this election – five times as much as Bernie Sanders or Ted Cruz and three times as much as Hillary Clinton. This is happening in part because some of the media have allowed Trump – and only Trump – to call into television shows, rather than appear in person on camera, whenever he wants. This call-in option allows Trump to blanket the airwaves with his message day in and day out. Other candidates have been denied this option, which is unfair and undemocratic. Join us in calling on the major media networks to apply their call-in interview policies equally to all Presidential candidates!
