    George W. Bush and his White House committed war crimes, including the greatest war crime of all, starting a war of choice. Yet these people are still free, and one of them (Bolton) is trying his best to repeat his crimes on a grander scale.

  • Stop war against Iran!
    preventing war with Iran The current rhetoric against Iran sounds alarmingly similar to how the Bush regime spoke about Iraq With Iran shooting down a U.S. drone that they say was in their airspace and trump reaction we are going to that direction and we need to stop the war. a war between the U.S. and Iran would be “catastrophic” for the Middle East

  • Reduce Military Spending
    The U.S. allots over half our discretionary spending to the military. This encourages war and deficit spending while taking resources from higher priorities like environmental restoration, healthcare and education. This must be reversed.

  • Demand presidential candidates oppose the first use of nuclear weapons
    At any minute, the President of the United States can start a nuclear war all by himself — a war that could kill everyone on the planet. There’s no such thing as a small nuclear war. You, me, everyone we know and love, would be impacted. It’s terrifying. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Right now, dozens of candidates are running to be our next Commander-in-chief. We need to get them on the record NOW committed to making this important policy shift the official policy for the United States. Add your name to demand a public commitment from every 2020 presidential candidate to institute a policy against the first use of nuclear weapons if elected president.

  • To STOP the consumption of live animals
    This petition is being made to stop the consumption of live animals. There are so many "delicate" dishes that involve inhumane practices and suffering. There is a popular dish in Guangdong, monkeys are put under a table where there head pokes through the top, and you are to eat there brain while they are still alive screaming! In china there is a dish called ying yang yu. It is a fish half severely fried but just enough to where its organs are undamaged and its head untouched so it can live for 30 minutes. Its sickening to see people laugh at its pain and poke it for a reaction, all i see is the pain in its eyes as it begs to die. There is a dish in China called Huo Jiao Lu. It is the practice of eating a live donkey. They tie its legs together and cut into it and serve the pieces of the suffering animal directly to the customer. The animal stays alive until it can no longer handle the pain and loses to much blood. These are only the few of so many, please help me to end this pain and save the animals that suffer for entertainment and satisfaction.

  • PEACE AND DIPLOMACY:
    We have ALL been affected by war in some way. My son is a disabled veteran due to the last war, that was useless. This war is being started to stop the impeachment! We must take care of our children at home. We need to stop the violence at our schools! We have to have money appropriated for our children's education. That should be our #1 priority!

  • Congress: Please end economic sanctions of Venezuela
    It is wrong to hurt innocent people for profit. We have been under pricing oil for years that has affected the Veneuelan economy badly. The economy falls and we must help the people trapped in the country. The way to do that is give them a way to make a living.

  • No War with Iran!
    The New York Tines reports that war mongers in the Trump administration are planning on sending thousands of troops to the Middle East to threaten Iran. We urge you to stand against this illegal plan and oppose any funding or approval for military action against the Iranian government or the people of the country, and to use your voice to speak out against violence and aggression against Iran.

  • HR-2419 - No Nukes, Yes Green New Deal!
    For those skeptical about being able to finance a "Green New Deal," this bill could provide that funding, if Congress would take it seriously. “Our bill is as timely as ever,” Norton said in her press release. “Although the United States possesses one of the largest nuclear arsenals, there are still plans to spend trillions of dollars more on these doomsday weapons while urgent domestic needs, including health care, infrastructure, and clean energy, face funding shortfalls. The United States can reestablish our moral leadership in the world by redirecting these funds to urgent domestic issues, not preparing for human extinction.” It's far past time to reverse this madness. Congress can do it. Eleanor Holmes Norton has been trying to do it! It's been stuck in the Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committee. It needs to get to the floor for a vote ... WITHOUT mark-ups! Will you please help?
