Our children deserve a school system that puts their needs first. Our educators deserve to work in a system where funds are allocated efficiently. And our taxpayers deserve to know how their hard-earned dollars are being spent. Transparency builds trust. It is time for accountability. We urge Stamford’s elected officials to act immediately and authorize an independent audit of the Stamford Board of Education.

The UFT is a powerful union and their influence impacts local elections. The UFT must not support Andrew Cuomo.

To protect public education. 

We Call on Leaders, Lawmakers, and Voters to Reject This Proposal and Stand With the Autistic Community This is not about public health—it’s about power, control, and prejudice. We stand with the autistic community in rejecting this harmful idea and demanding a future rooted in inclusion, not surveillance. Add your name to stop this now.

Donald Trump is signing another fake executive order – one that he claims can get rid of the Department of Education, which millions of students, teachers, and parents rely on to ensure every child gets the education they deserve. How will this impact your school board, your kids' education, and the funding your local schools rely on? What opportunities could be taken away from your kids or grandkids? And without the Department of Education’s guardrails, what extreme policies could be forced onto our classrooms? We shouldn't need to keep saying this, but Trump is a president, not a king. He can't close federal agencies without Congress – his attempt to do that at USAID got shut down in court.  And if he had the votes to pass a bill, he wouldn't be staging today's stunt. That sure won't stop him from trying – no matter what our Constitution, the will of the voters, or basic common sense says.   Let's make sure this attack on our schools is dead on arrival in Congress – can you tell your lawmakers to stand up for students today?

The climate crisis is not a distant threat—it’s already reshaping our lives here in New Mexico. Our rivers are drying, our skies are thick with wildfire smoke, and our communities—especially rural, Indigenous, and low-income communities—are paying the highest price. As students at the University of New Mexico, we are not immune to these impacts. We breathe the same air, drink the same water, and live in the same heat. UNM is supposed to be a place of learning, leadership, and vision. But how can our university prepare students for the future while ignoring the single greatest threat to our generation? Acknowledging the climate emergency is more than symbolic—it’s a necessary first step toward meaningful change. It means treating the climate crisis with the urgency it deserves, holding our institution accountable to its commitments, and ensuring that students have a real voice in shaping a just and sustainable future. This campaign is about integrity. It’s about justice. And it’s about survival. When students, faculty, alumni, and community members come together, we can push institutions to change. We’ve seen it happen before, and we can do it again. Your voice, your name, your presence in this movement sends a powerful message: that UNM cannot sit on the sidelines any longer. Whether you're a student living through the heat, a faculty member concerned about the future of education, or a community member fighting for clean air and water—this is your fight too. By joining this campaign, you’re standing up for climate justice, for youth leadership, and for a university that aligns its actions with its values. You’re helping build a campus that invests in life, not fossil fuels. A campus that centers sustainability, equity, and community—not corporate interests and empty promises. This is our campus. This is our climate. This is our moment. Join us—and help make history at UNM.

Wyoming has a long history of responsible regulation of firearms. Sensitive areas such as schools, college campuses, and government buildings should not have their rights to regulate firearms removed.  • Each school district already has the right to create their own concealed carry program for staff. A few school districts have implemented successful programs while many have decided not to.  • College and University Board of Trustees already can create their own concealed carry programs. The University of Wyoming Board of Trustees voted against allowing concealed carry on campus in November of 2024.  Sign this petition today to prove that the majority of Wyomingites do not want gun free zones repealed and want to maintain local control! 

In 2023, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed the "Parental Authorization for Deviation from Student's Legal Name Form" rule that requires teachers and school administrators to get parental permission to use alternative names for students. This is an unprecedented attack on teachers—punishing them for creating safe environments for their students. The rule is so extreme that it covers nicknames, but its ultimate aim is a thinly veiled attempt to humiliate transgender students, putting them in potentially dangerous situations at school and at home. Florida teachers are also expressly forbidden from educating their students on issues related to sexual orientation or gender identity, and state law prohibits anyone in a school from being required to use a person’s preferred pronouns.  Anti-trans laws have a devastating impact on young people and their mental health. We can’t accept attacks against educators who show up for their students. Add your name now!

This humiliating practice is detrimental to young child’s social skills, and invites bullying to the child. It creates embarrassment to the point that they may have no motivation to eat lunch. Other students may stop hanging around a child who eats at a silent table because they are now painted as a bad child who is problematic. Meal time should be social and not silent. Considering many children do not get to experience family mealtime, it should be a given right for children to have that connection with others at school lunch. Children need to develop social skills and lunchtime isolation robs them of that opportunity to build friendships and practice communication. Isolation of a child causes unnecessary feelings of anxiety and rejection. A child cannot learn when they are anxious and worried about judgment. Acceptance should be a feeling that is prioritized at our schools. When a child is repetitively isolated, the child may struggle with reintegration in social groups. Feeling like an outsider is something no child should feel or experience- especially at schools that advertise and preach inclusivity.

Thank you for taking time to follow our journey to open a new SixFour3 facility in Fairfax. Over the past year, the SixFour3 Fairfax Team has been working hard …we have leased space, designed what will be an amazing softball training facility (!!), and pursued a building permit to begin construction. Our hopes were to open in early 2025. However, a few short months ago, Fairfax County Staff ruled that we are not allowed to use industrial space for a softball training facility, which came as a shock to us all. During the last decade, countless baseball facilities and other sports training facilities have been approved by the County in industrial space. Some examples include Perfect Performance in August 2023, Pioneer Baseball in April 2022, Metro Baseball Academy in July 2021, Capstone Soccer in 2020, and Diamond Heroes Baseball in 2017…the list goes on and on. We feel singled out!! Our next step is a hearing with the Board of Zoning Appeals on May 7th at 9 am to try and overturn the staff's decision. To win the appeal, we need your voices to be heard!! Winning an appeal is no easy task, but we know the softball community will rally around us to help remove the barriers we are facing from the county to open SixFour3 Fairfax.  We believe it is vital to inform Fairfax County about the benefits of SixFour3 and would be grateful for your support in disseminating this information through your broadcasting channels. Want to do more? You can also write your own email to the Fairfax County BZA! We encourage you to share personal stories, your support, or feel free to use the sample language we’ve provided on the second page of this document. 

Accessibility is not just about ramps and elevators—it is about respect and inclusion and the type of community we create at Fordham. Many of our residence halls today—particularly Martyrs’ Court—currently bar students with mobility issues from being an active participant on campus. That means friendship, late-night discussions, study breaks and all that college offers beyond just class work are out of the question if one's living facility is inaccessible. If a residence hall is not accessible, then so is the community that is built there. Even if this matter does not directly affect you, it does affect your classmates, your friends, your future roommates. It decides who feels welcomed and who does not. By signing this petition, you are supporting the belief that all students should have access to the complete Fordham experience—not only in the classroom, but in all aspects of our campus. You're making it clear that we value one another and won't tolerate physical spaces creating unseen divisions. This is our opportunity to make Fordham better-for ourselves, for the current students on campus, and for all who will come afterward.

Sending a Message to Lawmakers: Every signature shows that people care. A strong collective voice can influence real policy change at the local and national levels. 5. Standing Up for Common-Sense Safety Measures: Most Americans support reasonable gun laws. This campaign is not about politics it’s about protecting people and preventing preventable violence.
