The proposed Land Use Framework would allow for more affordable housing, more transit-oriented development, and more ecologically sustainable development along the Broadway corridor from Devon to Montrose.

Everglades National Park is in a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone—meaning buildings should be constructed to withstand winds of 180 miles per hour. But the Everglades Detention Camp is made up of flimsy tents, bunk beds, and chain fences—it’s blatantly unsafe for those being held there. The facility has already flooded once from normal levels of rain.  Beyond endangering human lives, the Everglades Detention Camp also threatens one of the country’s most fragile ecosystems. Journalists have already struggled to report on the facility because of the swarms of mosquitoes, some of which can carry dangerous diseases. And if industrial mosquito repellents are used, the environmental harm toward the Everglades and its nationally protected land could be staggering. DeSantis and his allies have refused entry to Democratic representatives demanding to exercise their legal duties to conduct oversight because they know how appalling the conditions inside are. Add your name if you agree that the Everglades Detention Camp must close at least until a full investigation is completed, including: • A public comment period for nearby communities • A public report on human rights conditions inside the facility • A full environmental impact study

Moving Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) by Rail is a disaster waiting to happen. Many of you already know that because you followed the issue and signed the petitions we circulated to stop it last time Trump was in office. Here we go again! The Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking recently published by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is the first step in the process of changing the rules, yet again, to allow LNG to be moved by rail nationwide. We're asking you to sign our petition to send a strong message to the Trump administration and PHMSA that LNG moved by rail is too dangerous to allow. They must NOT reverse the court-ordered ban! Help us stop LNG by rail in its tracks! We'd appreciate it if you could take a couple of additional minutes to submit a comment to PHMSA's official docket for this advance rulemaking using our EZ form. All you need to do is write an opening sentence, a closing sentence, and select from several optional points to include in your comment. We take care of the formatting and uploading and we save a copy, along with the tracking number, to be on the safe side. You can find our EZ form here.

The trees at Oakhampton Place both are a safe haven to our local wildlife and an enchanting addition to this property. Many of our tenants choose to live here because of the privacy, shelter, shade, and aesthetic appeal that these trees offer. Our poolside tenants were upset when the flowering crepe myrtles were cut down, and now several of our beloved live oaks have been removed or have been marked for removal.  These trees have not appeared to be overly stressed or dying. We care about this loss largely because the live oak is indigenous to Texas and it is important to protect our native trees in this community. We are speaking out because we want to champion and preserve our canopy, and this is also a mission within Bexar County! Unnecessarily chopping down these large trees also affects our ecosystems in this area and harms our environment. The animals that live in these trees have nowhere to go when these trees are cut and must resort to residing in unnatural spaces. A large benefit of having this tree between Oakhampton property and the neighboring school is that it blocks a lot of the sound pollution as well. Noise from loud delivery trucks, daily announcements, and the hustle and bustle of students is already an issue, but much of is soaked up by the spatial area of the tree, providing our residents with some relief. Lastly, cutting down the tree will take away the cooling that it provides. Without the tree canopy, our apartments get hotter and our AC units work harder. We want clean air and natural beauty to live on at Oakhampton. Thank you for considering our request as we want to be mindful of chopping down our Live Oak trees—just trim them! Let’s work together to preserve our clean, beautiful environment for ourselves and our local wildlife. We urge you: Please protect the mature, healthy tree outside building 16 that is marked for removal alongside any others!

If we let our public lands get sold to private interests, we will lose access to places we have long taken for granted. Campsites will be gone. Trails will be impacted. Water and air quality will likely be undermined. Animals will die. Communities that rely on nature-related tourism will take a grave economic hit. Our international tourism, and therefore our economy, will severely decline. Most importantly though, one of the things that makes this nation so special -our tremendously vast and pristine wilderness- will be irreversibly diminished and harmed. We cannot let this happen. Please sign this petition and join the fight to protect our public lands. 

Like the beaches to the west, the San Jacinto Mountain region offers respite and adventure for tourists, and provides beauty and serenity for local residents. It is a critical life-sustaining resource for all living creatures. We must protect the forest and desert areas by demanding our political representatives vote against commericial enterprises' access to public lands that belong to the people and inhabitants of the natural environment.

While business is important for our state's growth, responsible, regulated, and TAXED business is necessary for our state's survival. We demand that our representatives speak up for the people in our community, renegotiate the  standards upon which we solicit and accept industry in Texas by increasing the hire local requirement and instituting measurable accountability, and remediate, reinvest, and revitalize the environment and infrastructure in the communities they benefit from. 

Englewood Beach is the heart of our community—economically, socially, and emotionally. Its prolonged closure for over seven months is harming local businesses, limiting recreational space for families and children, and disrupting daily life for residents of all ages. Surrounding beaches have reopened, yet Englewood remains fenced off with no clear explanation or visible effort toward progress. With summer approaching and thousands of students soon out of school, urgent action is needed. Reopening the beach is not just about access—it's about restoring the well-being, economy, and spirit of an entire town.

As is the case with every passing boom, we are told that we need to get on the data center bandwagon because of the jobs they will bring. An industry newsletter noted that “the communities most vocal about opposition to more data centers appear to be ones where people already know what living close to data centers is like,” citing the small number of jobs they create as one reason. “There’s not an easy solution on this front given that most data centers require few employees, and increasing data center automation will shrink workforces even further.” Data centers are known for the vast amount of energy they consume, but they also use a massive amount of water. “Data centres consume water directly for cooling, in some cases 57% sourced from potable water, and indirectly through the water requirements of non-renewable electricity generation,” according to a 2021 study. However, the author noted “issues of transparency with less than a third of data centre operators measuring water consumption.” We will deliver your signatures to all state governors and the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC).

Your support can help keep Stockton safe from fires!

The 2025 wildfires didn’t just destroy homes, they exposed deep systemic inequities and left vulnerable residents without jobs, homes, or access to critical services. As future social workers, we believe recovery is not just about rebuilding structures; it’s about restoring people’s lives, their connections, and their opportunities. AB 338 is crucial because it provides a targeted solution for those most affected by the disaster. The bill would not only help rebuild the physical infrastructure but also offer long-term benefits, such as job training and local employment opportunities, that contribute to economic stability. This will help survivors recover their livelihoods while giving them the tools to rebuild their communities. If AB 338 is not passed, the rebuilding process will face significant delays, and thousands of low- and middle-income residents will be at risk of homelessness, financial instability, and adverse mental health outcomes. Families and businesses need the support of both local and state governments to recover in a way that restores their dignity and independence. By supporting AB 338, we can ensure a faster, more equitable recovery and invest in a California where communities are stronger, more resilient, and better prepared for the future.
