National solidarity needed for Michigan workersIn spring and early summer, hundreds of thousands of voters signed a petition supporting a ballot a measure to increase Michigan's minimum wage to $12 per hour and to phase out the subminimum tipped wage. On August 24, the Board of State Canvassers voted to certify the ballot initiative. Now, Republicans in the Michigan state legislature are trying to bypass the voters by adopting the ballot measure language with a plan to amend it later in November after their own elections are over. We, the undersigned people, demand that the Michigan state legislators respect the democratic process and let the people vote on the minimum wage initiative in November. People power put the initiative on the ballot, and if we don’t let the public decide what's best for our communities, this type of anti-worker attack will take place in our own local communities, too. All eyes on Michigan during the next week. Let's come together nationwide to support workers who need us now!5,728 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Jane Fonda and Restaurant Opportunities Centers (ROC) United

Tax the Mercedes-Benz StadiumFulton County residential homeowners are facing skyrocketing property tax bills. That's why 2018 tax assessments resulted in 37,000 residential tax appeals. The Atlanta Falcons pay NO TAXES on their long term lease of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium thereby skirting $26 million per year in taxes at the expense of residential homeowners - short changing the public school system by 50% of that amount, $13 million per year. Call or send Fulton County Commission Chairman, Rob Pitts, an email. Call him at 404-612-8200 or email him at rob.pitts@fultoncountyga.gov.72 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Taxpayers for a Fair Deal

Tell Impark: Stop Firing Immigrant Workers!Parking lot attendants at Impark in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania earn as little as $8.16 an hour and must pay for their health care out of their meager wages or go without. Nearly all of the parking attendants at Impark work two or more jobs and many immigrated from African countries to find the American Dream, only to be stuck working grueling jobs for poverty wages. At a time when immigrants are under unprecedented attack, African immigrant parking attendants are standing up for their rights and demanding better. Yet the more they raise their voices, the more Impark cracks down. Surafel, a husband and father of two young children came to the United States from Ethiopia for a better life. After encouraging his co-workers to sign a petition for the union, Sarafel was abruptly fired. Now Sarafel lost his job, and his ability to care for his family, simply for speaking up for his rights. Stand up for immigrant workers like Surafel. Tell Impark to respect the law and rehire the fired parking workers.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by 32BJ SEIU

No Church At 344 Main StreetTo prevent the Church from opening a worship service on the ground floor of 344 Main Street in Downtown Salinas. It is against the City code for a church to be on the ground floor of a retail building on Main Street and we want the City of Salinas to deny the application for a CUP (Conditional Use Permit) for a church on the ground floor, as it is detrimental to the other businesses in Downtown Salinas.55 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Trish Sullivan

Tell your Representative: Stop Trump’s NAFTA!Trump wants to use NAFTA 2.0 to lock in his rollback of essential environmental, public health, and consumer regulations.

But we need your help to urge them to act!3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker
