• California Faculty Association, take a stand against neo-McCarthyism
    Labor unions, as organizations in civil society that form the groundwork of a democratic, pluralistic society, need determined, courageous leadership that understands the threat of fascism, and is willing and able to stand up to it. A union representing academic workers, who are under a systematic assault by well-financed right-wing groups (like Turning Point USA, which maintains a “Professor Watch-List”), has a particular responsibility in that regard. In the case of Lars Maischak, CFA accepted, defended, and continues to defend the decision by CSU to remove a faculty member from the classroom, accepting it as justified because the faculty member had been the target of violent threats by right-wing groups and individuals. This is a case of capitulation in the face of politically motivated violence unacceptable for a labor union in a democracy. There is no shame in admitting the complicity of your organization with right-wing violence. The only shame is in continuing to pretend it did not happen. By delegitimizing the experience and perspective of the victim, CFA keeps the victimization alive. CFA should take this petition as an invitation to become an effective force for the defense of democracy. For documentation, please see: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/yq9vcp8oi9s4e/

  • It's Physical Distancing with Social Connection
    Reaching out to neighbors and friends, even if it is virtually, can help our society thrive even in the face of a pandemic. If we choose, instead, to curl in on ourselves and ignore the plight of those around us, we lose part of our humanity. It is important to preserve our compassion. This period in history is difficult, but we can ease some of the pain if we remember that we are not alone and that we have the power to help ourselves and others.

  • End the lockdown and the stay at home order
    Because people need to start protesting and getting their lives back to normal again and letting kids have a life playing sports going to school. People need to start going back to work and making money. You are making us American people suffer and it's not right. We need to work go back to every day life and have a life back and enjoy our lives and stop this crap. Because people are killing themselves and jumping off bridges and buildings and people are oding and this is not right so hurry up and fix this. You need to step up and open up our New Jersey state up quickly and stop spreading fear and let us have our freedom back.

  • Seniors get graduation ceremony
    They have worked 13 years to graduate. We can not take their ceremony from them. They have worked so hard and deserve this. They should not be punished for the virus. It's not their fault and they would be the only class to not get a proper graduation. Many parents have invested in their senior from kindergarten till now, senior pics, invitations and caps and gowns on top of the emotional toll it has put on many in absolute tears and devastation today.

  • Keep The Covid19 Economic Checks Out Of Partisan Politics
    1) The Economic Impact relief Fund has been instituted by an Act of Congress in a Bipartisan move, NOT by any Executive Order! 2) In EVERY Sense it is UNETHICAL to attach personal memo or Name on the checks because the use of Public Office to Promote Election Agenda is UNETHICAL and should be PROHIBITED BY AN ACT OF CONGRESS for current & All times! The People of America will not allow opportunistic tendencies to be carried out from the Public Offices! 3) POTUS office is a PUBLIC Office, NOT a PRIVATE, PERSONAL FAMILY ORGANIZATION and the Citizens are NOT an Employee of the Office of the POTUS. ------ The Opportunists MUST BE SHOWN THE DOOR, In all Times! The God & Commonsense BOTH of them AGREE on this important matter, all around the world. ----- **IT IS TO BE REMEMBERED THAT BY JUDGING THE MERIT OF CIRCUMSTANCES WE THE PEOPLE HOLD THE POWER TO FIRE POTUS FROM THE JOB; THIS IS OUR CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY**

  • Estheticians, Massage Therapists, & Beauty Professionals Going Back to Work
    The survival of the independent health & beauty professionals is at risk. Many are already in grave financial hardship while others are on their way. Many of us cannot pay our bills or buy food now and others are close behind if we don’t get back to work soon, Please consider this petition to let us work again. We know & comply with the rules of sanitation everyday already in our work environment & understand them better than the average person because we are licensed through the state of New Mexico. We know how to properly clean and sanitize all of our tools and work space. All we have to do is add masks as many already use gloves and aprons & wipe down any surfaces our clients touch.
