Join us to tell Congress: No more tax dollars to Elon Musk!It’s outrageous that Trump has given Elon Musk, an unelected, unvetted, unconfirmed billionaire, an unprecedented and unconstitutional amount of power. Musk is using it to gut the federal government as we know it. It looks like sending USAID, the U.S. government’s lead distributor of lifesaving humanitarian aid and development assistance across the globe, “into the woodchipper” (his words). Millions of lives are at immediate risk. One USAID worker estimated that as a result of Musk’s handiwork, “At a minimum, 300 babies that wouldn’t have had HIV, now do.” The kicker? Musk is working to "reduce spending" while making money hand over fist from the same Pentagon contracts that pay his own companies billions each year. Musk’s net worth has increased by $65 BILLION since Election Day — growth that’s based on an assumption he will keep those government dollars coming, and in many cases with less regulation, moving forward. It’s corruption, plain and simple, and we refuse to sit idly by and allow it to continue. The Pentagon is accountable to Congress and the public: That’s US. So let's send lawmakers a message tens of thousands of people strong, urging them to block Elon from gaining another cent of our taxpayer money, and even more power, as fast as they can NOW.292 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Win Without War

Stop Trump’s cuts to cancer, diabetes and Alzheimer’s research!As the world’s largest funder of cancer research, NIH research grants have made it possible to extend countless lives and notably reduce cancer development and death. We can also thank NIH-funded research for the first artificial heart valves, CT scans, breakthrough gene therapy, developing new ways to prevent, diagnose, treat, and manage infectious diseases including the flu, Lyme, and hepatitis; addictions like opioid abuse; and chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis. It’s no wonder why these grants have garnered support from people of all political stripes. This research impacts researchers in every single Congressional district and Washington, D.C., mostly through academic medical centers. Yet if Trump and Musk have their way, this innovative, life-saving research could grind to a halt. On February 10, a federal judge issued a restraining order against the Trump Administration from proceeding with these devastating cuts. However, we can’t let this battle just be fought in the courts. Our lawmakers need to hear from us that these cuts are not welcome: curing cancer is not a partisan issue. Patients, families, and communities need Congress to stop playing politics with our lives. Congressional Republicans especially need to send the message to Trump that their constituents’ lives and livelihoods matter.44,720 of 45,000 Signatures

NO CUTS to Medicaid!Cutting Medicaid—a state and federal partnership that funds health care for more than 80 million Americans, including older adults, children, pregnant people, and disabled people—would run counter to then-candidate Trump’s big campaign promise to lower the cost of living for everyday Americans. In fact, cutting or defunding programs like Medicaid would also create major gaps in state funding and devastate state budgets. It would then, in turn, force states to raise taxes or cut certain parts of their budget in order to fill the gap. And just last week, President Trump tried to cut Medicaid when he attempted to pause funding to federal grant programs before his administration was forced to temporarily put those plans on hold. No one should have to choose between getting the health care they need and paying for rent, gas, or groceries because of high costs.43,668 of 45,000 Signatures

Residents vs Alabama Power CompanyIt’s important because if we don’t speak up now! Rates will continue to rise and we will continue to be expected to pay them regardless of the price on the bill. The city doesn’t have reliable utility assistance for its residents. Community Service doesn’t have funding… Most community organizations will tell you that the bill can’t exceed $200 dollars in order to receive assistance. So majority of our residents don’t qualify for the assistance. It’s important to remember the cost of living and minimum wage that the state still hasn’t graduated from.389 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Cinnamon Bogan

USA should not be short staffing nor short funding the FAA and Traffic ControllersAmerica is the wealthiest nation in the world. We can and should have a fully staffed flight control system and a fully funded FAA. A politic that would consider tax cuts for the wealthy so they can take joy rides into space, while at the same time using a 'Swiss cheese' approach to air traffic control to pinch government spending is insane. The irreplaceable lives of 67 people were lost this Thursday due to a preventable accident. All mid-air collisions are this. At the time of this accident, the fact that one controller was doing the work of two, and that this was considered 'permissible' reveals the root of the problem: Short staffed air traffic controller systems. These dedicated, over worked heroes have warned us for years, since the 1970's when Reagan fired them all over a strike about working conditions, that their work load is unrealistic. As traffic has increased dramatically over the last decades, near-collisions have increased proportionately. Yet, our government leaders have not responded to the warnings that traffic controllers are overworked and under staffed. Many, many warnings have been ignored. Now 67 have died and their families have suffered the worst imaginable loss; all because these elected leaders have failed to respond. We the people must DEMAND that our air traffic control system be fully staffed and fully funded, so it can operate at it's best possible level and provide the best possible safety. Our very lives depend on it. Please sign this petition, and we must all call / write your Senators and Congress persons and make this demand. Fully staff flight controllers and fully fund the FAA.33,273 of 35,000 SignaturesCreated by D.S.

NO freeze or cuts for federal aid!Children and families across the country could suffer from abrupt cuts to school breakfast programs, food benefits, child care block grants, and housing vouchers. Not to mention how it could impact funding for public education, roads, and transportation. Health care programs like Medicaid, Medicare and food assistance programs like SNAP are at risk. Trump and Republicans are gutting essential services, just to pass tax cuts to the ultra wealthy. Him and his wealthy friends won’t be impacted by these cuts, but the rest of us and our communities will. These federal grants and assistance programs are meant to support us. They're the outcome of the tax dollars at work. Trump and Republicans shouldn't be able to make substantial cuts that would put our communities, jobs, and health at risk. 16 million people will lose their health care if this bill comes to pass. Add your name to the petition to fight back. NO MORE CUTS FOR OUR COMMUNITIES!143,865 of 200,000 Signatures

Support the Inflation Reduction ActDear Neighbor, I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out to talk about an important opportunity to support our community’s growth and energy future. Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District is benefiting from historic investments that are creating jobs, lowering energy costs, and strengthening our energy resilience. Here are just a few of the ways the IRA is making a difference right here at home: • $13.4 million for solar power and energy storage in Durango, boosting clean energy innovation. • $16.6 million to expand a solar array in Alamosa, diversifying our local energy mix. • $250 million for wind turbine production in Pueblo, creating good-paying jobs for our families. In addition to these remarkable projects, programs like Solar for All are expanding access to clean, affordable energy for low-income families. This legislation is not just about energy—it’s about ensuring a strong, sustainable economy and a brighter future for everyone. Unfortunately, there is growing pressure to roll back the progress we’ve made. That’s why I’m asking you to join me in signing a petition to urge Representative Jeff Hurd to continue supporting the IRA. By standing together, we can ensure our district remains a leader in clean energy and economic resilience. Your voice matters. By signing this petition, you’ll help protect the benefits we’ve already seen and ensure that these opportunities continue to grow for future generations. Let’s work together to ensure that our community continues to thrive. Thank you for taking the time to support this important effort.75 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dallas Blaney

Unite Families Faster : Reform U.S Immigration foe Siblings Now!Why This Change is Important Family unity is a core value of the United States, and the current waiting times for sibling immigration visas undermine this principle. Currently, U.S. citizens may wait 15 to 20 years or more to bring their siblings to the U.S., an unreasonable delay that creates long-term separation and hardship. This delay is not just an inconvenience; it is an emotional and financial burden for families. Facts: Emotional Impact: Families are forced to live with the distress of separation for decades, often missing out on critical life moments. Important family events—weddings, births, illnesses, and even funerals—occur without the support of siblings who are still waiting for immigration approval. Economic Impact: Families are often separated across borders, which creates financial burdens as relatives who might have supported each other are unable to reunite and share resources. When families are finally reunited, they often face economic challenges, which could be alleviated by reducing the wait times. Family Support Systems: A reduction in the wait time would allow families to reunite sooner, making it easier for siblings to share responsibilities for caring for aging parents or helping each other with childcare. The Human Side: Take, for example, the case of Mohamed, a U.S. citizen living in Michigan. He has been waiting for nearly 18 years to reunite with his sister in Egypt. During this time, his sister has missed the births of his children, their graduations, and even important family events like weddings. The emotional toll on Mohamed and his family is immense, but they are powerless to change the system. Like Mohamed, millions of other U.S. citizens are facing the same heart-wrenching wait. Why Should Others Join in the Campaign? 1. Support for Family Unity: Many Americans understand the value of being with family in times of need. By reducing wait times, we ensure that families can come together sooner, providing mutual support in difficult times. Family reunification benefits everyone—not just the immigrants but also U.S. citizens who want to build their lives with the support of their loved ones. 2. Humanitarian Reasoning: The U.S. prides itself on being a nation of immigrants. By advocating for change, we align with the values that make America a beacon of hope for families around the world. Speeding up the immigration process for siblings ensures that the U.S. remains a compassionate and welcoming nation that values families. 3. Economic Benefits for the Country: When families are united, they can more easily contribute to the U.S. economy. Whether it’s through work, investing in local communities, or contributing to the country’s cultural diversity, family reunification strengthens our nation as a whole. A Call for Action: This is not just about policy—it's about families. People all across the U.S. are living with the pain of long separations. With your support, we can change the law to ensure that the immigration process for siblings is fair, timely, and humane. Together, we can advocate for a change that unites families sooner, strengthens our communities, and ensures a more just immigration system for all. Join this campaign because family should not have to wait 20 years to be together. Let’s work together to make the U.S. immigration system fairer and more compassionate for everyone.61 of 100 SignaturesCreated by wael Nawar
