The East Hampton train station is more than just a transit hub—it’s a public space that serves our entire community. Building a bar here would: 1. Privatize a public space – The station should serve commuters and residents, not commercial interests. 2. Impact vulnerable workers and commuters – Overpriced food and alcohol could make the station less welcoming and accessible. 3. Increase crowding and safety risks – A bar could lead to congestion, noise, and public safety concerns. 4. Set a precedent for commercialization – Allowing one business could open the door for more commercial ventures in public spaces, changing the character of East Hampton. Protecting the station ensures it remains a safe, functional, and inclusive space for everyone who relies on it.

The richest companies and people in America are pushing AI because a lot of their money is on the line. They’re telling the public that algorithms, chatbots, and automation will replace workers at historic levels in the next few years. THIS IS A THREAT TO WORKING PEOPLE. The unemployment rate for college grads is 5.6%, the highest level in more than a decade outside of the COVID-19 pandemic. Workers are being told in the thousands that they’re being replaced by AI.  Companies implementing AI are inundating people with “workslop.” A recent report in the Harvard Business Review catalogues how subpar work output from AI (“workslop”) is actually destroying productivity. Companies need to stop lying to their workers about AI. Corporate executives need to stop making jobs harder for people because of AI, and making baseless claims about AI.  Sign the petition: Stop using AI as a pretext for cutting jobs and laying people off! Human workers cannot be replaced by AI.

The U.S. faces an unprecedented national debt, now exceeding $107 trillion, yet billions are spent punishing parents rather than supporting children. The current child support enforcement system drains resources, incarcerates parents, and worsens poverty—all while failing to prioritize children’s actual needs. Congress must act to reform this system. Key Findings: • National Debt & Fiscal Waste: From 1998–2025, federal child support enforcement contributed to mismanaged funds, with $32.5 billion spent on administrative costs—often exceeding the net support actually delivered to children. This waste worsens an already unsustainable national debt. • Child Support Arrears: Over the same period, cumulative unpaid child support totaled ~$450 billion. Tens of thousands of parents are jailed annually for nonpayment, preventing them from earning income to support their children. • Inequity & Constitutional Concerns: Felony prosecutions, punitive interest, and incarceration without consideration of ability to pay violate due process and equal protection. Current enforcement often penalizes poverty rather than ensuring child welfare. This Act Will: 1. Repeal federal felony child support provisions (18 U.S.C. § 228). 2. Require ability-to-pay hearings before penalties, license suspensions, or incarceration. 3. Automatically adjust arrears for income loss, verified unemployment, disability, or incarceration. 4. Ensure gender-neutral, equal enforcement and reciprocal enforcement of financial and custodial orders. 5. Prioritize support over punishment through job assistance, mediation, and debt reconciliation. 6. Prohibit punitive interest or penalties unrelated to actual child expenses. 7. Prevent children from being treated as government revenue or collateral for debt. 8. Increase transparency and accountability for administrative costs, reimbursements, and enforcement outcomes. Why This Matters: Current policies trap families in cycles of debt and incarceration, divert billions from direct child support, and contribute to a spiraling national debt. Reform will ensure fiscal responsibility, protect children’s needs, uphold constitutional rights, and break the cycle of poverty that unfair enforcement perpetuates. Call to Action: Sign to demand child support reform that is fair, transparent, fiscally responsible, and focused on children, not punishment.

Amazon’s union-busting is relentless. The Teamsters said the drivers in Kentucky “quietly organized” for more than a year to avoid Amazon’s anti-labor crackdown.  After thousands of Amazon workers voted to unionize in 2022 in New York City, Amazon unleashed a full court press of labor law violations to block contract negotiations. More than three years later, Amazon executives still won’t recognize the union that warehouse workers at the JFK8 facility in NYC voted for. Delivery drivers at DBK1 said the biggest issues are inconsistent scheduling, unrealistic delivery quotas and salaries that do not meet New York City’s cost-of-living. Workers also said that they are constantly worried about losing their jobs, citing former colleagues who have been fired for minor infractions. Amazon’s overwhelming corporate power has allowed it to get away with exploiting workers. The mega-corporation has spent millions on its union-busting campaigns. But workers have the power to fight back, and they’re showing that from New York to Kentucky and all across the country. We must join them today.   Sign the petition: Tell Amazon to end the union-busting! Recognize and bargain with unionized workers now.

After bombing Caracas, capturing then-Venezuelan President Maduro, and announcing intentions to “get the oil flowing,” it’s becoming increasingly clear that Trump is preparing to “run” Venezuela’s internal affairs while extracting its resources under threat of future violence. It’s a plan as ill-conceived as it is dangerous — and it’s already becoming clear U.S. taxpayers are likely to be left holding the check. While Secretary of State Rubio initially claimed that their plan for Venezuela’s oil is “not going to cost us anything,” experts estimate that building up Venezuelan oil infrastructure could cost $115 BILLION. Now, Trump is suggesting that taxpayers’ dollars could be used to reimburse oil companies for the “tremendous amount of money” required to invest in Venezuela. While prices skyrocket at home, taxpayers must NOT be on the hook for oil companies in Trump’s lawless plan to pillage Venezuela’s oil. Fortunately, Rep. Mike Levin and Sen. Jeff Merkley just introduced legislation to prevent that from happening — and we need everyone in Congress to add their urgent support.

Ignorance and avarice have corrupted every level of American society. The oligarchy, kleptocracy, and kakistocracy must be brought to heel. American workers will not tolerate the rule of war criminals, treasoners, and human traffickers.

 Amazon’s profit last year was $30,400,000,000. Their CEO was paid $29,200,000 for a single year’s work - at least 730 times the amount the lowest worker took home! But they refuse to take care of Pregnant and Disabled Employees. Amazon is hurting pregnant and disabled workers who need accommodations! I started this petition demanding amazon stop forcing employees to choose between their health and their jobs when they request legally required accommodations. As a Amazonian and disabled worker myself, who was denied accommodations, I know the reality of amazons mistreatment first hand. Please sign and help thousands of workers fighting for basic dignity and rights.
