> Demand Full Transparency: Release All Footage in the Police Killing of Matthew CardonMatthew Cardon was shot and killed by police in Peoria, Arizona, on June 5th, 2025. Despite repeated requests from his family and community, authorities have not released all available footage. There are conflicting statements, missing body cam footage, and unanswered questions that demand transparency. We call on local and state leaders to release all footage, open an independent investigation, and ensure this never happens again. Matthew was a son, brother, and friend.His family—and the public—deserve the truth.496 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Aprile Cardon

U.S. guns will keep ending up in the hands of cartels — until Congress stops itU.S. gun laws are weak. Mexican drug cartels exploit those weaknesses. What's that equal? A flood of firearms. But while Trump officials mull sending U.S. troops to fight cartels in Mexico — a move likely to unleash untold levels of violence and suffering on both sides of the border — Sen. Dick Durbin and Rep. Joaquin Castro offer a genuine way to curb cartel power and corruption: the Stop Arming Cartels Act. This bill cracks down on the unlicensed gun market that pumps a deadly pipeline of up to 500,000 U.S.-made guns to cartel hands each year. In a recent study, the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) traced nearly 70% of guns recovered at Mexican crime scenes back to U.S. gun manufacturers or importers. This deadly ‘iron river’ of guns fuels cartel warfare, migrant smuggling, and a fentanyl crisis that has devastated families across the country — and it’s time to dam it up. This bill isn’t just about stopping international crime. It’s about keeping people, on both sides of the border, safe. It deserves bipartisan support. It’s the kind of legislative solution that families, particularly those directly impacted by addiction and a failed war on drugs, are heading to the Hill to lobby for — and you have a key role to play too. Every weapon smuggled across the U.S.-Mexico border strengthens cartels and makes us all less safe. Tell your members of Congress: Co-sponsor and pass the Stop Arming Cartels Act (H.R.923/S.367) to stop the ‘iron river’ now!33 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Win Without War

NO to the federal concealed carry mandate!Opposing this dangerous and outright reckless legislation should be a no-brainer for members of Congress. For years, states have had the power to decide who is too dangerous to carry a concealed weapon in public and where concealed firearms are not permitted. And while only 21 states require a permit in order to carry a concealed weapon, research shows that these states tend to experience fewer gun-related incidents. In fact, states that passed permitless carry laws saw, on average, a 27% increase in gun homicides within three years of the change, while other states saw less than half that increase during the same time period. Polls also consistently show that a majority of Americans oppose weakening concealed carry permit laws. This dangerous concealed carry mandate legislation must not pass.1,435 of 2,000 Signatures

Return Schools as Gun-Free ZonesWyoming has a long history of responsible regulation of firearms. Sensitive areas such as schools, college campuses, and government buildings should not have their rights to regulate firearms removed. • Each school district already has the right to create their own concealed carry program for staff. A few school districts have implemented successful programs while many have decided not to. • College and University Board of Trustees already can create their own concealed carry programs. The University of Wyoming Board of Trustees voted against allowing concealed carry on campus in November of 2024. Sign this petition today to prove that the majority of Wyomingites do not want gun free zones repealed and want to maintain local control!93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sarah Reilley

End Gun Violence; Save LivesSchool is supposed to be a safe place for children of all ages to learn. If we allow just any random person with possibly a mental illness walk into a gun and ammo store one day and decide to buy a gun to shoot up a school, how exactly is that a safe place for children to learn? Exactly. It’s not. With more and more news of school shootings that come out each year, children become more and more terrified of going to school. School for them is no longer a place of fun and learning, but rather a place of the terrifying possibility of someone breaking in and going on a rampage.42 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Han Jisung

Too Many Shots Fired ActDue to the increased number of school shootings all over our country children feel unsafe to seek further education ,as well as parents fearing for their children ranging from kindergartens to high schoolers. This domestic threat on my fellow classmates and I ,as well as so many children who attend schools everywhere violates the constitutional right to liberty and pursuit of happiness. The right to education and safety are now teetering as nothing is done. Many children in the United States attending school have self harmed or attacked their schools because nothing was done to protect them from bullying and social outcasting, many students have harmed others for their right to exist, which can be linked to mistreatment at home, upbringing and lack of care from school officials. It is important the elephant in the room must be addressed to insure a bright future for all students like me.132 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Nicole Marshall

No Guns at the PollsIt’s time to ban guns from every polling place in America. The voting booth should be a sanctuary of democracy. But every election year, we see reports of people openly carrying weapons as voters go to the polls – turning what should be a safe and welcoming experience into one of intimidation and fear. That's why Common Cause is taking bold action to protect voters. Just this year, we helped pass laws restricting guns at polls in New Mexico and Massachusetts – and with your action, we can bring this solution to every state in the nation. Our democracy works best when every voter feels safe and empowered. Voting is meant to be an act of hope—NOT fear—and with your help, we can make that a reality nationwide. If you agree, add your name to our petition today telling Congress: Every voter must be able to cast a ballot without fear or intimidation. Guns do NOT belong at polling places.46,717 of 50,000 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause
