Stop giving mass shooters a platformI live in a country where anyone over the age of 18 can purchase a gun from a licensed dealer. I also live in a country where there is no age requirement for a third party seller of said gun. And, I also live in a country where easy access to weapons in homes in normal. Whenever my sons decide to have a sleepover or go to a friend’s house, I have to ask the parents if there are guns in the home. If they have guns, then I make sure to ask if they have them locked away and the keys are also hidden in a place where the children won’t find them. I don’t have to ask if there are guns in the house. I get looked at funny when I ask if they have guns in the house. I want to make sure my children aren’t in a home where there are easily accessible guns. Because, once a child knows there is a gun in the home, then they know there is a gun in the home. This nation is riddled with mass shootings. If there is a way, any small feat, to get people away from the idea that the their names and faces would be blasted all over social media, and the news, then that’s a win for everyone. Senators, Congress, and people with any sway in my opinion, please consider taking the names and faces away from the public eye so that people don’t have to see the awful face of the human who decided to ruin an entire community’s life with a terrible decision to give themselves fame and glory.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nicole Raphael

End the Cycle: Stop Sending Drug Addicts to Prison – Prioritize Treatment Over IncarcerationThe issue of sending drug addicts to prison is not just a personal problem; it’s a societal one that affects us all. Imprisoning individuals struggling with addiction doesn't address the root cause of their behavior—it perpetuates a harmful cycle of addiction, incarceration, and relapse. The prison system is not equipped to treat addiction, and as a result, these individuals often reoffend, creating a revolving door that impacts families, communities, and taxpayers. By prioritizing treatment and rehabilitation over prison sentences, we can help break this cycle. Studies show that treatment programs lead to lower recidivism rates, saving taxpayers money and improving public safety. Incarceration isolates individuals from the support networks they need for recovery, while treatment provides the tools to overcome addiction, rebuild lives, and contribute to society. We cannot solve the addiction crisis by simply punishing those who suffer from it. Instead, we must offer compassion and effective solutions that provide individuals the chance to recover and lead healthy, productive lives. This campaign is not just about reforming the justice system; it's about building stronger, healthier communities. Everyone knows someone affected by addiction, whether directly or indirectly. This issue transcends socioeconomic lines and impacts families, workplaces, and neighborhoods. By joining this campaign, you can help advocate for real change that addresses the root cause of addiction and offers a more effective, humane alternative to imprisonment. Together, we can create a society that doesn’t punish individuals for their struggles but helps them heal. By standing up for treatment over incarceration, you are helping to create a system that works for everyone—one that reduces crime, strengthens families, and promotes public health. Addiction is a public health issue, not a criminal one. Let’s work together to shift the focus from punishment to healing and ensure that individuals receive the help they need rather than being condemned to a life of imprisonment. Join us in demanding better solutions that benefit our entire community.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sarah Poling

"Justice for Assault Victims: Hold Juvenile Offenders in Baltimore City AccountableAs residents of Baltimore City, we all deserve to live in a community where safety and justice are upheld. Unfortunately, the alarming rise in brutal assaults committed by juveniles threatens the well-being of our neighborhoods and the peace of mind of our families. These violent crimes leave lasting physical and mental scars on victims and their loved ones, creating a climate of fear and insecurity that no one should have to endure. By signing this petition, you are standing up for the rights of assault victims who have been left to fend for themselves. You are demanding that juvenile offenders be held accountable for the serious harm they inflict on our fellow residents, OUR FAMILIES! It is not enough to offer rehabilitation without justice—victims deserve to see those responsible for their suffering face appropriate criminal charges that reflect the severity of their actions. Moreover, this petition calls for a stronger, more visible police presence in our communities. The current lack of officers on our streets means that many crimes go unanswered, leaving victims isolated and vulnerable. We need a city where our police force is adequately staffed and equipped to protect us, where we can rely on timely responses when our safety is threatened. Joining this petition is more than just adding your name to a list; it is a powerful statement that we, as a community, will not tolerate violence, especially when it targets our most vulnerable. It is a call for a safer, more just Baltimore—a city where we can all live without fear. Together, we can make our voices heard and demand the change that our city so desperately needs. Join me in supporting this petition to ensure that all residents of Baltimore are protected and that victims receive the justice they deserve.366 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Tameka Lewis

Action for the Animals in PonceThe amount of animals in the streets, the conditions of the animals, the amount of abuse, the daily dumping of dogs by backyard breeders, the lack of animal welfare education, the lack of affordable pet care, the lack of law enforcement and laws for helping the animal crisis, and the exponential growth of the stray populations are issues that fall to the responsibility of the government of Puerto Rico. The killing contracts that Puerto Rico has engaged in for decades have provided inadequate solutions and have promoted Puerto Rico world-wide as an inhumane place. The more that people who are not numb to the situation come to the island and see the crisis, the more the reputation of Puerto Rico will harm tourism and the economy. Puerto Rico is also known for the corruption that exists at every level of government and in the majority of cases, government officials commit crimes of corruption when granting contracts, including contracts for killing. Unfortunately, as the public records and news stories show, municipalities do not monitor, inspect, or oversee contractors involved with animals and those contractors, being driven by money, abuse and neglect the animals and break laws.103 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Lody Isaac

Pass a Robust Massachusetts Climate Bill in 2024Over the past several years we have all watched Global Warming become Climate Change, and now we find ourselves in a full Climate Crisis. Sea levels are rising and destroying homes and property. Tropical superstorms are ravaging the coastal states, including New England. Expanded and prolonged forest fires sweep across the continent. We must act in every possible way to reduce our Carbon Footprint, and to provide climate resiliancy. And we must act N.O.W.!23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Iain Goddard
