Demand that the Federal Correctional Institution at Englewood provide Jeffrey Sterling with neede...Jeffrey Sterling, who was convicted of espionage for sharing a small amount of information with the journalist James Risen about a plot to start a new war in Iran, has been incarcerated for over a year in the Federal Correctional Institution at Englewood. He was a CIA employee who was passed over for a promotion based solely on his race and filed a complaint against the CIA. As a consequence, he has been vilified, tried, convicted and imprisoned. His plight is dire at this point. He has suffered symptoms of heart distress for several months without being allowed to leave the prison for a cardiac consultation and testing. While he was promised that he would get this care by August 29, nothing has happened to this date. Activists are calling the jail and the Bureau of Prisons regularly and Arn Menconi, the Green Party candidate for senate in Colorado, has held two vigils outside the prison, all to no avail. Even our senator, Michael Bennet, has written and demanded a copy of Jeffrey’s medical records which FCI claims to have lost. Please sign my petition to demand that Jeffrey receive the medical care that is his human right. You can email Warden Denham at [email protected] . Also please call FCI Englewood at 303-763-4300 and the Bureau of Prisons (ask for Sarah Revel) at 913-621-3939. Jeffrey’s inmate number is 38338-044. Thank you! Jeffrey's wife Holly, who is very distraught and reaching out to everyone who can help, will be very pleased at the show of support while we await a positive result of our continued pressure.46 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laura Avant

Bring Ralayzia Home!On Nov. 7th, Ralayzia Sayuri Taylor, a Black Trans Woman, was stabbed in the back 3 times and beaten with a hatchet at 10:30am in Arbor Glen Park in Charlotte. Though she was severely injured, Ralayzia survived and was able to stay with family in Ohio during the first few days of her recovery. On Nov. 17th, 10 days after surviving physical assault and battery, the CMPD issues warrants for Ralayzia's arrest. She was arrested on charges of statutory sex offense and indecent liberties with a minor based on accusations about the events leading up to her assault. CMPD then labeled her as a fugitive for leaving the state when in reality Ralayzia just needed a safe place away from Charlotte to heal physically, mentally and emotionally. Currently, Ralayzia is in jail in Cincinnati, Ohio with an extradition charge to Charlotte, meaning the Hamilton County Sherriff"s office will not release her until she is transported back to Charlotte, NC and into CMPD Custody. Ralayzia is locked in a cage in Ohio for daring to survive a hate crime. Let us Remember: .) Trans Women of Color who have been locked up after surviving hate crimes, such as CeCe Mcdonald and Merci Chrisette. .) Before Ralayzia's arrest, HB2 was passed in North Carolina to target and marginalize the trans and gender non-conforming community. .) Two months ago, CMPD murdered Keith Lamont Scott, murdered Justin Carr, framed Rayquan Borum for the murder of Justin Carr, and now has imprisoned Ralayzia. Yet another black body for CMPD to exploit, to murder, and to feed to the prison industrial complex. Ralayzia's arrest is another example of how trans women of color are criminalized and dehumanized. Ralayzia's Trans Womanhood IS NOT A CRIME! Black Trans Women Lives Matter and we must bring our sister home and free her from jail! #RahRahGoneStand #BlackTransWomenlivesmatter #NOJusticeNOPeace327 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Dhruv Pathak

#Justice for JayMilwaukee District Attorney John Chisholm is faced with the challenge and opportunity of making sure Milwaukee finally gets it right and convicts the Wauwatosa cop responsible for the death of Jay Anderson . ****Correction**** The video was enhanced by the State Department of Justice and the FBI has yet to pick up this case. It has been nearly four months since the murder of my cousin Jay Anderson Jr. We have yet to receive any REAL answers from our elected D.A. John Chisholm or the Wauwatosa Police Department. The Wauwatosa Police Department claims the family of Jay Anderson Jr. does not wish to release the video from the officers camera, but that is untrue. The Anderson family objects to releasing the limited 20 seconds of video from the shooting as it gives no true sense of what happened. It is confirmed that the State DOJ was able to enhance the 20 seconds of video but now Wauwatosa refuses to release that footage after multiple request from the family. The District Attorney has no objection to releasing this newly enhanced footage as their investigation is complete. Besides being in a PUBLIC park after closing time, Jay committed no crime. This officer has stated that he feared for his life because HE SAW a weapon. The only thing this officer has been able to say is HE SAW a weapon; not that Jay reached for the weapon, not that Jay physically had the weapon, but HE SAW the weapon. This officer claims he was having issues with his body camera so nothing was captured from the encounter, but he managed to get it working for 20 seconds while he was MURDERING a father, Jay and Linda's son, a fiancée, Tasha and Tray's brother, Flora and James grandson, A nephew, an uncle, a cousin, and a friend to many. It is a known that this officer attempted to leave the force for PTSD before his encounter with Jay Anderson Jr. due to another fatal shooting he was involved in less than a year prior. SO many QUESTIONS with no answers. Please support the family of Jay Anderson Jr. and contact District Attorney John Chisholm and the Wauwatosa Police Department DEMANDING answers. We Demand that the new footage be released. We demand footage from all of the squad cars that entered Madison Park on that morning, specifically Squad Car 318. Wauwatosa Chief Barry Weber has stated "he stands by his officer and believes he did the right thing". If Chief Weber stands by his officer then he should have no reason not to release the tape. Maybe you can't walk in the rallies or support the fundraisers but everyone can pick up a phone, sign this petition, write a letter or send an email. WHEN: Today until a decision is announced in this case and the video is released. WHAT: Emailing and Calling The Wauwatosa Police Department and District Attorney John Chisholm's office Wauwatosa Police Department Chief Weber 1700 N 116th Street 414-471-8430 District Attorney John Chisholm Office: 414-278-4646 Email: [email protected] Why was this officer able to continue working after claiming to suffer from PTSD from a previous shooting? Release all audio and video (original and enhanced)pertaining to the case, specifically Squad 318 What is the proper procedure when approaching vehicles alone that you deem to be suspicious? How do you consider a vehicle or person suspicious without running a persons license plates? ... And lastly Why has this very young officer transferred from 2-3 different municipal police departments in his short career as an officer? We will not go away!! All we want is Justice 4 Jay Anderson!! ****Correction**** The video was enhanced by the State Department of Justice and the FBI has yet to pick up this case.242 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Shevon

President-Elect Trump: Denounce Hate CrimesDonald Trump's silence in the face of the current rise in hate crime, fueled in part by his rhetoric and behavior, belies his promise to be "president for all Americans." We therefore demand he break the silence and publicly denounce and pledge specific action against hate crime. United States hate crime legislation needs strengthening. Some states have no hate crime laws, and it was only in 1993 that hate crime laws were ensured constitutionality. Ours are decades behind other Western Democracies. Overall, there remains imbalance between First Amendment protections, and the protection of hate crime victims. The United States is in dire need of effective, protective hate crime laws. The current crisis lends even greater urgency. The president-elect owes it to all Americans - regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious belief, disability, or political persuasion - to publicly denounce hate crime and pledge concrete action against it.857 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Ippolito

Sentencing EnhancementThe courts are sentencing defendants to gang/gun enhancements per victim involved and not per incident. Stacking these enhancements makes the sentencing unrealistic. To sentence 100+ years in prison serves no real purpose since the defendant has nothing to lose while incarcerated, good behavior or bad behavior. With 100+ years there's no possibility of rehabilitation because the defendant knows there is no release from the prison system with that type of sentence.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cheryl L Harbottle

Dan May: Press Charges Against Jack Rogers for the Murder of Jesse GarciaJesse Garcia, 23, was murdered in a Taco Bell parking lot in Colorado Springs on July 17th, 2016. His murderer, Jack Rogers, an 80-year-old white male at the time of the incident, has a documented history of racial harassment in his neighborhood, a family connection to an officer in the CSPD, and a case that doesn't add up. The 4th District Attorney Dan May made a quick decision not to press charges against Jack Rogers based on a surveillance video that has not yet been released. We demand that charges be brought against Jack Rogers, allowing a full investigation into the nature of the shooting. As District Attorney, Dan May's job is to bring justice to those whose voices have been silenced, and he failed to do so. Why Press Charges? • Police report lists the two as strangers, when in reality, Jack lived across the street from Jesse's grandmother. • Jack kept meticulous records of who entered and exited the neighborhood, frequently using racial slurs to describe Jesse's family members. • While the case is described as a road-rage incident, there seems to be no evidence of this other than Jack's testimony. • The written report of the video and of witnesses describe Jesse as not gesturing, not raising his voice, not yelling moments before he was shot by Jack. • Jack claims that Jesse grabbed the gun and it accidentally went off, yet no prints of any kind were found on the gun. Jack is a former officer himself and would know about preserving fingerprints. • Jack has a family relationship with a Colorado Springs officer.549 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Olivia Romero

Overturn the EXTREME 30 SENTENCE2- 30 year sentencing for a crime Donald Williams V24006was not responsible for. He was involved in a high speed chase (not in a commission of a felony) and he did not even know he was being chased and he has been accountable for the death of an office who was clearly violating the law by high speed chasing him on a motor vehicle.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tasha McCray
