• Trump Twitter Blackout
    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."

  • Say No To President Trump's Proposed Budget Cuts
    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.

  • Stop Donald Trump from starting a nuclear war!
    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.

  • Remove Devin Nunes from the House Intelligence Committee
    The Chairman of this committee is clearly showing bias and partisanship. This investigation involves the current administration and their involvement in tampering with our presidential election. It is imperative that the facts be uncovered if we have a foreign government potentially involved in influencing our elections and one of the candidates is colluding with a foreign government. Everyone should be greatly alarmed. Nunes has jeopardized the integrity of this committee and he has potentially tainted the outcome. He needs to be removed from the committee immediately.

  • Demand Representative Nunes step down as Intel Committee Chair!
    Devon Nunes has compromised an ongoing investigation by the Intelligence Committee; intentionally did not reveal his unverified information, implicating the Obama administration of wrongdoing. In fact, any incidental information was obtained legally via a Fisa warrant!

  • Obama Must Sue Trump for Slander
    Trump has been carelessly Tweeting out all sorts of wild garbage for years with no thought to possible consequences. Now that he is President, the reputation, credibility and even the security of the country is being damaged.

  • No West Wing Office or Security Clearance for Ivanka
    We, the citizens and taxpayers of this nation, and therefore, owners of the people's White House, object to the provision of a West Wing office, security clearance, and government-issued communications device for the President's daughter, Ivanka Trump. In this scenario, there is no precedent, no guidelines, and therefore, no protocol for accountability or oversight. Further, a conflict of interest is clear as reportedly Ms. Trump continues to own and profit from her fashion and jewelry businesses, both of which also appear to benefit from her father's name, presumably even moreso now that her father is President of the United States. Finally, this scenario is different from other adult children advising past Presidents: not just there to offer insights to her father, it appears Ms. Trump will have an expansive portfolio, and without associated education or experience in government, public office, or public policy. It has already been of significant concern to the petitioners herein to see Ms. Trump sitting in on high-level Presidential meetings with foreign heads of state.

  • Senate Democrats: say NO to funding Trump's wall, deportation force and detention camps.
    Trump’s goal is clear: this is a request to fund mass deportation. Trump is putting all the pieces in place for his Deportation Force to carry out mass deportation. In addition to the wall, Trump wants to vastly expand detention camps to lock up more immigrants including families seeking asylum, put more agents on the border, expand raid operations that will terrorize communities, and re-direct more federal funds toward prosecution of immigration violations. These rubber-stamp convictions are intended to warp the statistics and bolster their hate-fueled propaganda portraying immigrants as criminals. Trump is building out a police state, in part through his Deportation Force, so that any challenges to his dystopian detention and deportation nightmare can be swiftly and forcefully suppressed. Already under Trump, we have seen chaos at our airports and in our communities. That chaos and cruelty would only be magnified if Trump gets his way, but in order to implement these plans, he needs more money. We have the power to say NO. Tell Senate Democrats—especially leadership and members of the Appropriations Committee—to say NO to funding for Trump’s Deportation Force. On March 16, the Trump administration requested $3 billion from Congress for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to begin funding his executive orders through September 30, 2017. Republicans will need 60 votes to pass any funding bill - and there are only 52 Republicans in the Senate - so Democrats have the power to resist the Trump agenda. What does $3 billion to DHS pay for? • $1.4 billion to construct the border wall, a physical symbol of exclusion and hate and a clear waste of taxpayer dollars. • $1.2 billion for more detention facilities which will fuel the private prison industry and exacerbate existing, sometimes fatal, abuses in these facilities. • Prepares to hire 1,000 ICE agents in 2018 so more ICE agents will roam communities - including churches and courthouses – creating terror and panic. • Prepares to hire 500 more CBP agents even though DHS doesn’t meet existing hiring goals because so many applicants fail their polygraph tests. And this is just the beginning. Trump will need billions and billions in more funding to make his executive orders a reality. President Trump’s immigration agenda spells cruel separation of families and communities. Since his election, ICE has detained DREAMers, gone into courthouses to arrest survivors of domestic violence, deported mothers and fathers, and left families stranded oceans apart through his continued Muslim ban. Tell Senate Democrats to say NO to funding Trump’s wall, Deportation Force and detention camps.

  • DETROIT INSURANCE RATES NEED TO BE LOWERED
    When I see friends and family trying to insure a vehicle in Detroit but cannot because the monthly premium is more for one month than most others pay for a year, I cringe. When I see the rates continuing to climb with no end in sight I am speechless. I know that in Detroit having access to a vehicle means having the ability to go to a fruit market and buy fresh fruit, it means going to a grocery store, it is the ability to get to and from a job, it is being able to take your children to activities that are not accessible in Detroit. Until there are changes in our laws and some compassion, Detroiters cannot afford to insure their homes much less their cars. We need to sustain healthy, happy families in Detroit.
