This is important because these immigrants who are here legally working, contribute to our society, both financially and culturally. They have done nothing wrong because they have done what the US told them to do by filing for and receiving work authorization documentation, as well as social security numbers. You are reneging on something our former government gave permission for which makes us all look very bad and we believe it is unethical and immoral. 

Because no one deserves to live in unsafe, unlivable conditions—especially when they’re paying rent. When we allow slumlords to get away with neglect and abuse, we’re not just hurting one tenant, we’re sending a message that people’s dignity and basic needs don’t matter. This campaign isn’t just about me—it’s about all of us. It’s about standing up for families, seniors, single parents, working people—anyone who has ever felt ignored, disrespected, or trapped by a landlord who refuses to do the right thing. When we come together and raise our voices, we shift power back to the people. We make it known that we will not be silent, and we will not settle for less than what we deserve: safe, clean, and humane housing. This is more than a complaint—it's a call to action. I’m asking others to join me because change doesn't happen alone—it happens when we show up together.

We are Kilmar, Mahmoud and Rumyesa. They are us. The Trump administration’s violation of Constitutional rights will not stop with them. 

1. Protecting Children and Educators: Schools are meant to be safe environments. Joining this campaign helps push for laws that prioritize the safety and well-being of students and teachers. 2. Preventing Tragedies: Gun violence in schools has led to heartbreaking losses. Banning guns from campuses can reduce the risk of shootings and save lives. 3. Creating a Peaceful Learning Environment: Fear and anxiety have no place in education. Removing firearms from schools helps students focus on learning rather than survival. 4. Sending a Message to Lawmakers: Every signature shows that people care. A strong collective voice can influence real policy change at the local and national levels. 5. Standing Up for Common-Sense Safety Measures: Most Americans support reasonable gun laws. This campaign is not about politics it’s about protecting people and preventing preventable violence.

Reneging on that promise puts our military in danger of never getting help in the future.  It is a moral failure for our country.  Experience has proved that Afghan refugees resettled in the US quickly become financially independent and pay taxes and there are many experienced, local volunteer resettlement groups throughout the country willing and able to provide support. Lift the ban now and GET THEM OUT!

A petition is being delivered to the Secretaries of Defense and the Army to make it clear that history cannot be rewritten—whether about the 442nd or any other distinguished service group. While the Army may have reinstated the webpage, this never should have happened in the first place. Moving forward, vigilance is essential to ensure it never happens again. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team was not just the most decorated military unit in U.S. history for its size and length of service—they were family. Many had grandfathers, uncles, and relatives who served in the 442nd, the 100th Battalion, and the Military Intelligence Service (MIS). Their heroism, sacrifice, and unwavering loyalty to this country are deeply personal, standing as a testament to the highest ideals of military service and American values. The removal of the 442nd’s webpage from the U.S. Army’s website, following an executive order that ended so-called “radical” diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, was deeply disturbing and unacceptable. This decision dishonored the extraordinary sacrifices of the 442nd and attempted to erase a crucial chapter of U.S. military history—one that must be preserved and taught for generations to come. Were the brave members of the 442nd radical? Absolutely. They were radically courageous, radically selfless, and radically loyal to a country that had unjustly imprisoned their families, stripping them of freedom and democracy. And still, despite all of that, they fought with unparalleled bravery across Europe, including the legendary rescue of the “Lost Battalion” in France. Their actions were not just a testament to their valor—they were a direct challenge to the racial prejudice they endured. To see their contributions erased from official military history once again is shameful. As descendants of soldiers and internees, there is an obligation to ensure that their honor and legacy are never erased. While the Army has put the webpage back up, that is not enough. This was never just about a webpage—it is about ensuring that the sacrifices of these brave men are never erased again. The U.S. military must remain true to its history and values. This is a moment to “Go For Broke” once again—not just to restore what was lost, but to ensure it never happens again. There must be safeguards in place so that the history of the 442nd, and all distinguished service groups, is never erased or diminished in the future.

Recess is a time for members of Congress to return to their home states. They should be using this week to meet with their constituents, give space for their concerns, and take that back to D.C. Instead, House Republican leaders are now reportedly telling their offices to avoid holding public events when they are home for March recess. Tim Burchett had scheduled a town hall for March 16, but canceled it citing concerns about "professional instigators" (The Hill). This is the opposite of the directions Democrats are receiving—with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries encouraging all members to connect directly with constituents to talk about the Republican-backed attacks on key services like Social Security and Medicaid embodied by Elon Musk's actions and the Republican budget.  Tim Burchett was elected to represent us—he should not be hiding from his constituents. Period.  Add your name to the petition to demand that Tim Burchett host a town hall or public office hours during the congressional recess! 

Nevada citizens want to know where their money went. We demand to know. Sign now to demand that there is an internal investigation into where the money went and why it was given to Uprise before any work was completed. 

While republicans may be receiving "marching orders" to avoid town halls, it is up to us, the people, to demand them and to ensure members of congress who support the current administration answer to their actions and the impact it will have on individuals and community alike.

The current situation in Gaza and the West Bank calls for immediate and decisive international action to stop the ethnic cleansing and the genocide of millions of Palestinian civilians. This film, made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective, shines a light on the destruction of homes and communities by the Israeli military and the determination of Palestinian people to rebuild their homeland.

This help protect any child of any sexual abuse allegations in school. The students may feel safer to disclose to schools, it may also help the student who is being accused come forward to any abuse he/ she is facing outside of school. Teaching kids young that sexual abuse has consequences. We need to help protect our children. 

On Sept 11th, 2022, at 12:45 am, my 26yr old daughter, Hanahn Mystique Benitez, was struck and killed by a driver who just said he " saw nothing" and was not charged with anything. Not even a ticket. My daughter was almost seven months pregnant with a baby girl that she was naming Winter. She was struck on the eastbound side of 347 & Terryville Rd. She was wearing a bright yellow hoodie and was a few feet from the crosswalk. She had already passed almost all the way across the two lanes from a very lit up area coming off the sidewalk from a car dealership corner when the driver struck her from his front left side of his vehicle, and he said he "saw nothing! The driver that killed them made it a point to tell the officers that he is a head nurse at Stony Brook hospital. He hit her so hard that the impact flew her over the metal divider and threw her to the westbound side traffic and she was then hit by two other cars *as per the witness’s statement whose car was facing west and was waiting at the left turn lane. The witness saw everything even though he was facing the opposite direction. How did the killer see "nothing". Was he distracted by something in his car? The police failed to inform me of the driver’s actions before and at the time of impact. The driver was not given a breathalyzer, asked to take a toxicology test, his phone was not looked at (that I know of because it’s not in the incident report), his speed was not documented, and he was NOT made accountable for his actions. When the detectives came to my house that morning to inform me that my daughter and granddaughter had passed, one detective simply stated that it was an accident. How could they come to that conclusion without a thorough investigation yet? It sounded more like it was a vehicular manslaughter. He walked away and she didn’t. This tragedy has devastated her family, her twin brother, and friends.
