We believe that all rights guaranteed by the Constitution should be fully defended.

The elected Republican U.S. Representatives that voted for this loss of healthcare to so many Americans need to know that they will be voted out of office. People in every state and every district will lose their health insurance because of the repeal of the ACA. The elected Reps who voted "yes" to repeal and replace Obamacare will find out just how many when THEY are repealed and replaced.

We need to make government truly represent the people, not the corporations and the few extremely wealthy people who are currently paying for legislation that will benefit themselves.

Congress' attitude toward the poor is immoral and reprehensible. They will never deal with the structural roots of poverty until they're forced to deal with them personally.

I am starting this petition because I want my pay to be determined by what job I have and how hard I work, not what gender I am.

My daughter is 36 years old, and she has autism and some spinal deformities. She works two part time jobs. She has worked hard to overcome her challenges but she needs approximately 40 hours per week of support to remain living in a condo that she purchased. Along with my daughter, Wisconsin has over 70,000 people with disabilities who would lose funding for key services under the proposed cuts to Medicaid. Trump's health care act would force people with disabilities and seniors to go without care, which could be deadly for many!

I am a former Chair of the Campaign Finance Board. I know that adoption of these measures will mean that Minnesota will become a "pay to play" state with officeholders solely beholden to big contributors.

Our democracy is under threat.

We are concerned about the chipping away of the Constitution by the current administration and seek the commitment of our Representatives to defend and support the Constitution and its amendments.

Nick Melvoin is running for school board and one of Trump’s biggest backers in California along with a host of billionaires are pumping money into his campaign. Their money is funding deceptive mailers, misleading people about incumbent school board member and teacher Steve Zimmer's record. As a teacher in this district, I’m disgusted that these billionaire special interest groups are influencing this election. These are people who’ve never sent their kids to our schools, but because they have so much money, they get to come in and try to confuse the voters about who supports public education. In addition to one of Trump’s top donors in CA, Melvoin's donors include a board member for the right-wing Cato Institute who used to fund Betsy DeVos’ anti-public education PAC. These are people who want to bring the DeVos and Trump agenda to California. The Trump/DeVos/Melvoin agenda would undermine public education here in LA. These types of extremists don’t belong in LA politics. All of these donations were so outrageous that Hedge Clippers, a group dedicated to tracking and exposing hedge fund money in politics, issues a report about our school board race. Nick Melvoin needs to reject this money. Any direct contributions he should publicly return and he should publicly condemn any independent spending by any special interest billionaires. Their money is poisoning Los Angeles and our country. Join me in calling on Melvoin to stop the dirty attacks funded by the billionaire and run a clean race. It’s what the voters of LA deserve.

Tacoma City Council, 1. Adopt a Sanctuary City Resolution: Codify into Tacoma City ordinance that police officers will not act as defacto immigration agents, that City employees refrain from performing duties from the Department of Homeland Security, and that the City will not cooperate or assist with any unconstitutional or illegal registration or surveillance programs targeted at any immigrants in Tacoma. 2. Continue to block any expansion of the Northwest Detention Center or any private correctional facilities across the City of Tacoma. If necessary, legislate changes to the City code to ensure this is enforced. With Trump’s expansion to the deportation machine, our City needs to be proactive to prevent the detention of undocumented immigrants. 3. Create a legal defense fund for undocumented immigrants who currently do not have a right to legal representation in immigration proceedings even though the federal government is legally represented throughout the process. Legal representation will ensure that immigrants are 10.5 times more likely to remain in their community. 4. Initiate the Immigrant and Refugee Task Force to address issues facing undocumented immigrants living and working in our City. This task force should include include diverse representation of immigrants, undocumented immigrants, refugees, and LGBTQ, labor, educators, faith, and ally community leaders.

New York has the opportunity to do something on behalf of the people of the United States of America that we cannot do for ourselves and force the release of the state tax returns of the President. This will also set an excellent legal precedent for future disclosure for ALL of our elected officials who should not be allowed to secretly profit from their public service at the cost of our security and ability to make informed choices of who our representatives are beholden to.
