Trump's illegal war on Iran just entered its sixth month and shows no signs of slowing. A brief pause in the violence quickly collapsed, with strikes reported in Iran, Jordan, Egypt, and Iraq. At least seventeen U.S. servicemembers have died. At least 1,700 people in Iran have been killed. At least $100 billion has been wasted. Congress never authorized this war. More than that, Congress ordered Trump to end it through a historic war powers vote. But once again, Trump returned to the playbook he’s most familiar with — violence. Instead of demanding accountability, Republican leaders are moving forward toward a record-shattering $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget Trump can use to wage more war. They’d do it at the expense of social service programs — food assistance, healthcare, and more — that millions of people across the country rely on. It’s a dangerous moment, one that’s made it clear that you get what you pay for: Investing trillions of dollars in war over the last several decades has gotten us exactly that. It’s past time we turn the tables, which is why we’re demanding investments in people instead.

As a part of his mission to cut out government “waste” and cut through bureaucracy, the Trump administration and Republicans  have put the health of the American public in danger.  Since the start of Trump’s second term, the FDA has lost 20% of its staff — including 1 in 5 positions from its human food inspection division, and the CDC has lost 25% of its staff – now with only three scientists tracking food parasites.  In 2025, Trump eliminated the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods, which was created in 1988 under president Ronald Reagan to provide scientific advice and coordination to defend against dangerous microbes.  The administration also ended the mandatory tracking of cyclospora and other foodborne illnesses, which the FDA, along with other key agencies, was involved in. Gutting staff at these critical agencies didn’t save money, it risked the health and well-being of millions of people and we need answers now. Sign the petition to demand the Senate HELP Committee investigate the FDA over food recalls!

It is our duty as the public to speak for those who don’t have a voice. Long term reform is the goal and it can only happen when we pass on awareness and take action. 

         Protect our children’s water supplies. • Enforces the Law: It directly cites Article XI of the Virginia Constitution, holding elected leadership legally accountable to their sworn duty as the primary protectors of public natural resources. • Prevents Resource Depletion: Data centers require millions of gallons of water daily for cooling; this petition demands a pause before local water tables and agricultural resources face irreversible exhaustion. • Protects Family Finances: By blocking unbridled energy grid expansion, it protects everyday Virginia ratepayers from absorbing the massive infrastructure costs required to power private data infrastructure. • Secures Intergenerational Equity: It reframes environmental policy around long-term sustainability, ensuring that today's economic decisions do not compromise the drinking water of future generations.

The constitution of a country is the foundation that defines the relationship between citizens and the state. Decisions that change the way leaders are elected, institutions operate, and citizens participate in governance affect every Zimbabwean, regardless of political affiliation. This issue is important because: • A constitution belongs to the people. Citizens must have confidence that major constitutional changes reflect their views, concerns, and aspirations. • Strong democratic institutions protect everyone. Independent institutions, accountability, and citizen participation help protect the rights of all Zimbabweans. • Good governance affects daily life. Transparency, accountability, and responsible leadership directly influence jobs, healthcare, education, public services, and economic opportunities. • The future generation is affected. Constitutional decisions made today will shape Zimbabwe’s political and social environment for years to come. • Peace depends on trust. A country is more stable when citizens believe that their voices matter and that important decisions are made through inclusive processes. WHY SHOULD PEOPLE JOIN THIS CAMPAIGN FOR CHANGE? People should join because this is not only about one political party or one group of citizens. It is about ensuring that every Zimbabwean has a voice in decisions that shape the future of the country. By joining this campaign, citizens can: • Stand for meaningful participation in national decisions. • Promote accountability and transparency. • Support peaceful dialogue and constitutional governance. • Protect the rights and interests of future generations. • Encourage leaders to listen to the concerns of ordinary citizens. This campaign is built on the belief that Zimbabwe’s future should be shaped through the participation, dignity, and confidence of its people. Together, citizens can peacefully advocate for a Zimbabwe where institutions are trusted, leaders are accountable, and every person’s voice matters.

Trump has refused to rule out deploying the U.S. military to polling sites this November and has called to “nationalize” voting in battleground states. If you’re outraged and worried, you’re not alone. Luckily, lawmakers like Sen. Slotkin are working to block Trump’s shameless and dangerous attempt to intimidate voters and suppress turnout with legislation like the Protect Our Polls Act. They aren’t waiting until it’s too late to react — and neither are we. We’ve already seen Trump follow through on past authoritarian threats, and we can’t risk him doing it again. We know nothing short of our democracy is at stake. That’s why we need to sound the alarm and push members of Congress to keep our elections safe by supporting this common-sense legislation.

You’ve likely read about this year’s July 4th celebrations here in DC: a sad state fair, a crumbling stage, and a late-night rambling speech. But if you’d been here, you would have also seen some of the 5,000 National Guard troops — the equivalent of eight Army battalions — that Trump has stationed in the capital. As an organization committed to peace, we refuse to see our communities militarized and troops weaponized against the people they’re sworn to protect. We haven’t forgotten about Trump’s domestic deployments, and we won’t stop speaking out or responding with our vision of a world where people live and thrive free from violence. We aren’t powerless in the face of Trump’s authoritarian power grab. State governors still maintain control and command of these National Guard troops. That means the same governors who have helped normalize soldiers on our streets also have the power to say “no more” by recalling their National Guard forces. But they aren’t likely to act without public pressure, which is why we’re sending a resounding message to ALL governors reminding them that troops don’t belong on our streets:

Disabled veterans answered our nation's call without hesitation. They served, sacrificed, and returned home carrying the lasting physical and emotional effects of that service. Yet many Pennsylvania veterans are denied property tax relief because of outdated requirements that have little to do with their sacrifice. Under current law, a veteran can be service-connected disabled, honorably discharged, and still be denied assistance because they did not serve during a qualifying wartime period, do not meet a financial-need test, or are rated below 100% disabled. House Bill 1257 would modernize Pennsylvania's Disabled Veterans' Real Estate Tax Exemption by recognizing that service-connected disabilities affect veterans regardless of when they served or whether they meet an arbitrary income threshold. The bill would expand eligibility to veterans rated 50% or higher disabled, remove the wartime-service requirement, eliminate the financial-need requirement, and continue full relief for veterans rated 100% disabled or compensated at the 100% rate due to unemployability. For many veterans, this is not simply about taxes. It is about keeping the home they worked hard to build after serving their country. Rising property taxes have created financial pressure for disabled veterans living on fixed incomes, and many fear being priced out of the communities they fought to protect. Veterans across Pennsylvania have described HB 1257 as a meaningful step toward ensuring that those who sacrificed for our freedoms can remain in their homes with dignity. Pennsylvania's disabled veterans upheld their commitment to this Commonwealth and this nation. House Bill 1257 is an opportunity for Pennsylvania to uphold its commitment to them. TAKE ACTION TODAY Signing this petition is the first step. If you are a Pennsylvania resident, please take two additional minutes to contact your State Senator and ask them to support HB 1257. Find your State Senator here: https://www.palegis.us/find-my-legislator  Then send the message below: "I am a Pennsylvania resident and I urge you to support House Bill 1257. Disabled veterans should not be denied property tax relief because of an income cap or outdated eligibility requirements. HB 1257 passed the House with overwhelming bipartisan support and deserves a vote in the Senate. Please support Pennsylvania's disabled veterans and move HB 1257 forward." One phone call or email may seem small, but when hundreds of veterans and supporters speak up together, legislators listen.

The death penalty in Kansas is deeply dysfunctional and has been administered in an unjust manner that has drained vast public resources without improving public safety. There has not been an execution in Kansas in more than 60 years, but the state continues to spend millions on this flawed system. Commuting all death sentences will address the system’s deep flaws while allowing resources to be redirected to more effective public safety programs. Commuting death sentences also demonstrates strong leadership and sends a powerful message to Kansans that it is time to consider repealing the death penalty. The governor should take time to consider this issue thoroughly and not try to expedite the process.
