The lives of Arkansas children and families are in jeopardy. We can not afford to not delay the start of our schools until these measures are in place.

We don’t have the luxury of hanging up on reality. There is so much at stake: Healthcare, poverty, racial equity, public safety, housing, social programs — the list goes on. We cannot let the Conservative party win and implement policies that sow hate and division and take away what we have worked so hard for. The party that embraces Trump and all that he stands for — xenophobia, racism, classism, white supremacy, extremism, snd so much more. Their top candidate is a Trump Republican who will unravel all that is good in our State, including the progress that we have made. The struggle for equity and dismantling of hate will be under attack. If you still aren’t feeling the pressure — remember that the power of a governor is immense. Imagine meaningful legislation that we have advocated for never being signed into law. Our hands will be tied. The poll results are in and show that if we don’t show up to vote, the recall will 100% happen. If you do nothing else in this stressful year, please make it voting and reaching out to others to VOTE NO on the recall. Please contact the author of this petition for details on how to GET INVOLVED and SPRED THE WORD. And vote. Vote. VOTE. Kimberly Adams [email protected] 714-325-5303

The medical community has concluded that SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the community is correlated with the amount of infections in schools. When community rates of COVID-19 are high, there is an increased likelihood that SARS-CoV-2 will be introduced to, and potentially transmitted within, a school setting. Please sign our petition to keep our teachers and children safe from the pandemic.

This is so key to keeping our children safe in the schools this coming year and in the future due to the fact that the delta variant is raging the country at a rapid rate and masks keep us safe. As a parent of two wonderful children, I want to keep them safe and I would do anything, and many other parents would do the same. Keeping our kids safe is so key because they are the future of this very world. Please contact your friends and family that live in Palm Beach County and encourage them to support our petition. Also, while we were doing our petition, we saw that a school in Atlanta that was only one week into school had 100 kids in isolation, and 9 COVID-19 cases, with 8th & 6th grade classes going virtual for the time being, this is why masks are needed due to the fact that children are in school for 6-8 hours per day. It would be very negligent to not have masks in schools because children are there for a very long time and they would make the spread of COVID-19 easier. It is only going to get worse, last year schools only had about 50% of their students in-person, now with 100%, it will only make a potential outbreak worse, our children depend on us and the schools to keep them safe and we cannot let them down.

Today the entire mainstream media is owned by only FIVE corporations, all of which are run by people who are invested in weapons and war. The result is a media that always starts with a pro-interventionist position and is staffed by former intelligence officials and generals that protect the government narrative instead of the truth. Additionally, it is extremely rare for mainstream media outlets to have on opposing viewpoints, especially from the left, to have debates and discussions. We need a return to fairness, truth and civil debate.

By signing this petition, you requesting that your local school board members vote to establish Mask Requirements in your public schools for the 2021-22 school year, as long as masks are proven to be effective in protecting, reducing and preventing infection, severity and deaths by Covid-19/variant.

The current sexual health education classes within public schools specifically lack important information regarding sexual violence, including sexual assault awareness, and consent. We, Khalese Alexander and Sydni Madden, believe that consent should be discussed at younger ages and would eventually decrease sexual assault percentages before the age of 18. According to our anonymous survey, 75 out of 100 participants reported to be a survivor of sexual violence before turning 18. 90% of participants who answered yes to experiencing sexual assault reported to have developed depression, OCD, having feelings of not wanting to be touched, and compulsive sexual behavior. Many survivors do not realize what has happened to them until years later, and education surrounding the topic could get them the resources and support they need sooner rather than later.

There are many harms associated with sitting for prolong periods of times. Sitting for long periods of times have been associated with depression, child obesity, disruption to brain growth, physicals pain like back and legs and many other issues. In addition to the harms, in the 2021 Budgeting for state of Arizona there was ZERO funding added for Physical activities in school

When one of the founding members of Cannabis Vision Partners discovered her mother had breast cancer there was no where she could take her mother to for a safe, knowledgeable and comfortable experience at a dispensary. This was 14 years ago. Today not much has changed. We now have "apple store" style dispensaries and not one but TWO MedMen dispensaries approved by LA city council to operate in Venice, but none of them cater to women's needs and none of them are owned by women and certainly not women of color. Women and particularly women of color are the most disadvantaged when it comes to healthcare and almost invisible when it comes to natural healing. The needs of women and women of color are not being met in health and in business. One of the fastest growing industries is cannabis and currently the community of Venice Beach is being dominated and monopolized by greedy male corporations- essentially keeping out any women and especially women of color. This is a healing industry and the need for women focused healing is being neglected and we need change. You can make a difference for all women of color who choose to heal themselves with natural medicine and not with addictive pharmaceuticals and for women who want to make a difference in their communities. It all starts with someone like you who cares about women's needs.

Please join us so the administration realizes that type of behavior is unacceptable for our young people.

Did you know that tens of millions of kids breathe polluted air every day on their way to school? It’s true – and it’s because their school buses run highly-polluting diesel fuel. And we know air pollution can cause major health problems for children! Now, a new bill has been introduced in Congress that would replace these dirty diesel buses with clean electric buses. If passed, it would help protect kids from air pollution AND help fight climate change. The Clean School Bus Act would make major investments in replacing the nation’s fleet of diesel school buses with zero-emission electric buses. Even better, it would prioritize low-income school districts for funding.

Black girls are suspended from school SIX TIMES more often than white girls. It’s deeply unfair. Now, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley is fighting back with a new bill that seeks to end the disproportionate punishment of girls of color in schools. Rep. Pressley’s Ending PUSHOUT Act would provide extra funding to schools that ban unfair and discriminatory school discipline practices, and create a task force to study the problem. It’s a huge step toward ensuring that our schools are safe and fair learning environments for ALL kids. As Rep. Pressley said when she introduced the bill, “our schools should be spaces for learning and growth, but for far too many Black and brown girls, interactions with racist dress code policies and law enforcement in our schools define their experience.”
