I am starting this petition because I want free, fair and impartial hearings into the operation of our government, without obstructions. My Petition has nothing to do with partisan politics, it's all about being an Amercian citizen and our rights.

Americans need to know if the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 election. The House cannot properly investigate this grave concern under the tainted leadership of Devin Nunes. We need a new chairperson who lead the investigation in a fair and impartial manner.

I know people who are suffering due to lack of healthcare. I believe that universal healthcare is the best way to take care of all of our citizens.

While I don't believe the Trump Administration should be allowed to enact any legislation at this time, I am writing this particularly to stop Trump from signing SJ Res 18 which allows "hunters" to kill hibernating bears, gas wolf pups in their dens and shoot wildlife from planes. This is not hunting; this is murder and in the Arctic Wildlife Refuge -- "refuge" means "safe place." SJ Res 18 does not promote safety in an way. We must not allow this to happen for the sake of the wildlife and the sake of the planet our children will inherit.

U.S. Representative Devin Nunes broke his Constitutional oath by revealing information to the White House which is under Federal Investigation. He made this decision without the knowledge or backing of the House Intelligence Committee. His removal from both chairman of House Intelligence Committee and U.S. Representative for California's 22nd congressional district. He should be then held to an independent investigation to determine the depth of his involvement.

Last week, U.S. Representative Devin Nunes—a member of Donald Trump's transition team and chair of the House Intelligence Committee—disclosed possible information about alleged White House surveillance to members of the press and the White House, prior to sharing it with members of his own committee. Additionally, the day before Rep. Nunes addressed the news media about these claims, he held a secret meeting at the White House with the source of the allegations. This is partisan obstruction of justice. The interests of our country are being threatened by partisan politics. Rep. Nunes appears to be in collusion with Trump to protect him from the investigation into his campaign's ties to Russia. Kick Rep. Nunes off the House Intelligence Committee and demand a special prosecutor to lead an independent investigation!

Our Elections were hacked. And our three-branch government only works if the checks and balances work. A major check on executive misdeeds is this Intel committee. Congressman Nunes, by obfuscating and cancelling the public hearings we need, is in dereliction of duty as a legislative Check on the Executive Branch. And he needs to step down or do his job.

I was unable to attend the caucus in my neighborhood. Many individuals have told me that the caucus in their neighborhood was difficult to attend because of many reasons. The reasons included work commitments, the need to take care of a family member, parking limitations, and poor access for folks with disabilities. In Washington State less than 5% of the voting population attended and selected Bernie Sanders as Washington States Candidate for President. When a non binding primary was held later 34-percent of Washington state voters selected Hillary Clinton. This sent mixed signals to our delegates and they did not follow the true will of the people. The only way to get a true representation of the will of the people is to let them vote. We need to embrace all democrats in order to be a strong party.

Every day we are subjected to Trump's Twitter rants. As he taps away on his smart phone in the wee hours of the morning, certain that he can distract from the truly important issues that confront us, the media amplify his messages over and over again, thereby fulfilling his maniacal need to divert attention away from his corrupt, destructive agenda. What if for one entire week, the mainstream media (CNN, WSJ, NYT, WaPO, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, BBC, NPR) ignored his tweets? No coverage at all for seven full days. Instead, the media focuses on the substantial news coming out of DC, essentially sending the message to Trump that he cannot control the news cycle of the day. Sign the petition to start this "Trump Twitter Blackout."

Because the love and protection of our country should be above all else!! Nunes has proven himself unworthy of the position he holds!!

LIHEAP helps the elderly and low-income citizens pay their heating and power bills, and helps homeowners cover monthly energy costs, or repair broken or inefficient furnaces and air conditioners. WAP has helped insulate the homes of about 7 million families with low-cost techniques that save them money. Eliminating both the LIHEAP and WAP programs in America will only increase the hardship and poverty for low-income children and seniors. Help let America voices be heard and say no to eliminating LIHEAP and WAP.

Donald Trump just suspended a nuclear arms treaty with Russia. After costing nearly $11 billion dollars in damage because of the shutdown, we can't have Trump's tantrums also dictating our global policies. If Trump decides to launch a nuclear weapon - even if we’re not under attack - there’s nothing that can stop him. That’s because under the current law, once the President says “go," there’s just 4 minutes until launch. It’s a crazy dangerous system that was started in the Cold War to defend against an incoming attack, but is totally unnecessary today. Thankfully there’s something we can do about it. Right now, members of Congress, in the House and the Senate, have introduced legislation to prevent the U.S. president from launching a nuclear war without a declaration of war by Congress. While the President would still be able to defend from an attack against America, they could no longer launch the deadliest weapons ever invented just because they wanted to. Unfortunately, right now Congress is just continuing to act like Donald Trump is a normal president who can be trusted with normal powers. But we know that’s not true, and enough of us demand Congress take action, we can jolt them into action. Donald Trump has shocked the nation with his flagrant disregard for our national security. From stepping over the country’s top intelligence experts to appoint Bannon to the NSC, to receiving confidential security briefings while an army officer carried the “nuclear football” around in plain sight and earshot of paying members of his Key Largo club - his behavior is not rational or safe. No one who behaves this recklessly should have the ability to launch a war that would kill everyone on the planet. We need your help to pressure Congress to stop a Trump nuclear disaster. Sign our petition and tell Congress you support "No First Use" legislation to make America and the world safer by prohibiting the president from unilaterally starting a nuclear war.
