• US President Donald Trump Must Resign
    President Trump must leave the presidency. Impeachment takes too long. Save us the hassle. This petition is not about corruption or ideology. It is about competence, mental health (of President Trump and everyone else) and job suitability. Vice President Pence is no panacea. He follows a rigid right-wing ideology that does not reflect the views of the 99%. However, he may be more suited for the job. We'll see.

  • Limit presidential war powers
    I am concerned that the American public will be easily deceived by a "wag the dog" military engagement and I am concerned that such a conflict could escalate and cause greater unrest or violence in the world, directly affecting those involved of course, but indirectly affecting the rest of us economically and the US's standing and goodwill.

  • Local Petition: Free Acess to Hunting Island State Park for all Beaufort County Residents
    We the undersigned, request free access for all Beaufort County residents to Hunting Island State Park. Our counterparts in Hilton Head Island enjoy free Forest Beach, so why can't we enjoy ours for the same! Many residents of Beaufort County can not access Hilton Head, simply because the cost of gas is too much! Furthermore, many residents of Beaufort County can not afford a $75.00 a year for a beach pass, plus it is 22 miles to get to Hunting Island from Beaufort and Lady's Island with added fuel costs! In addition, Beaufort, Hilton Head, Fripp, and Dawtaw Islands generate millions of dollars in tourism to offset our simple request. People from out of state and foreign countries spend their money here and more than offset the costs of Hunting Island's maintenance. We the people of Beaufort County enjoy camping too! But it comes at a premium and we would like to see substantial discounts for anyone camping who possesses a state drivers license or state ID bearing the words Beaufort County!

  • Ask the Presidents Emeriti to speak out as a group
    I'm deeply worried about the egregious personal issues Mr. Trump exhibits as President - his lying, his lack of self-control, his narcissism, and more. I'm also (quite literally) scared of what could happen as the result of many of his Administration's initiatives and policies. I hope all five living former Presidents will speak out as a bipartisan group and express their views on what they see happening in the White House every day.

  • Defend the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument!
    In January 2017, President Obama added 48,000 acres in Oregon and California to the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument. Two separate lawsuits were filed opposing the expansion of the monument in February 2017, both citing impact on the timber industry. The Western Environmental Law Center intervened in both lawsuits to defend the expansion.

  • Don’t Let Donald Trump Sideline Rural Development at the USDA
    The Trump Administration is deprioritizing rural revitalization in favor of boosting international trade that benefits millionaire and billionaires in the Agricultural industry. Rural America is in decline. According to the Center for Rural Affairs, Nearly 7 in 10 rural Americans fear their small town life may be dying, yet 90% say this way of life is worth fighting for. However, instead of expanding federal programs to rebuild rural America, the Trump Administration is demoting and cutting the only program at the United States Department of Agriculture solely focused on supporting small towns and rural communities. Recently, Donald Trump’s Department of Agriculture (USDA) Secretary Sonny Perdue released a plan eliminating the Undersecretary of Rural Development which means that rural communities will no longer have an equal seat the USDA table. This is the first attack on rural America by the Trump Administration. Just weeks ago, the Trump administration attempted to wipe out rural business programs through the appropriations process. Federal USDA programs should prioritize rebuilding small towns and rural communities, not international trade that only benefits the millionaire and billionaires in the agricultural industry. Please join us and demand that the Trump Administration keep their hands off the Rural Development Mission Area.

  • Honor Civil Rights Leader Edwin T. Pratt in Shoreline Washington
    Edwin T. Pratt was an accomplished civil rights leader and the director of the Seattle Urban League. He stood up for school desegregation and fair housing. He moved with his wife and young daughter to Shoreline Washington, a suburb of Seattle, to set an example of how we can all be neighbors. He was assassinated on the doorstep of his home in January of 1969. He was an important person and he had a huge impact on others. The purpose of this petition is to honor Edwin T. Pratt by naming or renaming a Shoreline School District building/school after him. My name is Sarah and I am a third grader in the Shoreline School District. I would love to see this happen in my community. You do NOT need to be a resident of Shoreline to sign this petition...Anyone who supports this cause can sign! Thank you so much for signing this petition!

  • Appoint A Special Investigator
    The abrupt termination of the former head of the FBI, James Comey, has raised valid and troubling concerns about the method in which the action took place. An investigation of this magnitude requires a competent , nonaligned individual capable of sifting through evidence in a impartial manner without interference or collusion.

  • Enough is enough. Investigate the Trump administration now!
    President Trump unceremoniously fired FBI Director James Comey in a manner that was both humiliating and mean-spirited. By doing so, President Trump has undermined the only ongoing investigation that can shed light on this sad embarrassment that has befallen our country. As reported, last week President Trump fired Comey on the advice of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, another member of the current administration who has been plagued by his own seemingly unscrupulous dealings. I along with many of you have my own personal grievances with Attorney General Sessions, but putting those aside for now, these recent events are unparalleled in recent history. In fact, our country has not faced a situation like this since the early 1970’s and smack of Nixonian tactics. Quite frankly, President Trump’s recent actions have created a constitutional crisis that must be remedied with immediate and deliberate speed. To be clear, Director Comey is certainly not perfect and his performance at the FBI is obviously not without criticism. In fact, Comey’s entry into the recent Presidential election arguably had the effect of swaying the election in Trump’s favor; and influencing the electoral process is certainly not one of the responsibilities of a serving FBI Director. Nevertheless, to argue that President Trump ignominiously dispatched Comey because he was too critical of Clinton is baseless, unfounded and undoubtedly false. The timing of Comey’s firing along is suspect. It’s no coincidence that Comey was fired one day after former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates testified before the Senate. Director Comey was canned after Sally Yates conveyed to the Senate, in no uncertain terms, that she had personally warned the Trump administration that former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn was compromised and was vulnerable to blackmail by Russia. The truth must be revealed, and it’s far time that we follow the facts to finally get to the bottom of Trump’s ties with Russia. Since day one of the Trump administration, House Democrats have time and time again shown a light on Republican hypocrisy and unscrupulousness. It’s time that Republicans address Trump's taxes, Russian entanglements, and more. JOIN me and my congressional colleagues to call on Republicans to take action NOW to expose the truth, once and for all.

  • Remove Sessions Immediately
    The conflict of interest from a person who recused himself and just pledged allegiance to the President over the process he agreed to recuse himself from, proves beyond reasonable doubt that he will circumvent the separation of powers and ignore the Constitution to keep his job, proves Sessions must go.

  • Demand Kennesaw State University Athletic Department Remove or Denounce Tweets and Related Media ...
    One of the largest public universities in Georgia should not publicly promote itself with a legislator who is not doing his job marred in controversy while peddling ideas that are not true and dangerous. Consider agreeing and signing this petition to ask President and former Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens, Athletic Director Vaughn Williams, the Student Government Association, and University Relations Assistant Vice President Tammy DeMel to at least clarify that Loudermilk’s divisive political views do not reflect those of the university’s should they choose to continue to use his likeness for publicity. https://twitter.com/RepLoudermilk/status/862436879844732928 http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/news/a55026/republican-congress-constitution https://soundcloud.com/alan-j-sanders/congressman-loudermilk-interview-march-16-2017 http://www.cbs46.com/story/35140033/residents-say-theyre-being-ignored-by-their-congressman *Correction to the text in original petition: ... audio interview suggesting that the judicial branch of the government is somehow inferior to the other TWO which is clearly not true and dangerous.
