This petition amplifies a collective voice demanding accountability from U.S. leadership for harmful rhetoric toward Ukraine. By uniting millions, it pressures policymakers to prioritize ethical diplomacy and repair trust.

A strong signature count proves grassroots commitment to justice, urging leaders to act with integrity and uphold global values.  

This issue is particularly significant in light of the growing influence of certain religious groups seeking to assert greater control over governmental policies and the personal lives of individuals. While the action we are proposing may seem small, it serves as an important statement about the value of religious equality and the need to protect the principle of separation between religion and government. It demonstrates our commitment to ensuring that all individuals, regardless of their faith, are treated with respect and fairness. Furthermore, it affirms our resolve to stand up for these principles and to advocate for a society where religious freedoms are upheld for everyone.

Missouri is a reliably red state. Nearly all of our leaders in Congress are Republicans so why do they need to do town halls if they know they'll have your vote no matter what? America is under attack. This is not a left vs right or liberal vs conservative. This is farmers, doctors, nurses,  police officers, teachers, retail workers, veterans,  disabled citizens, every Missouri resident vs those gutting our institutions with no concern. This is corrupt. This is fascistic. This is the rich stealing from right under our noses so we need to have town halls to tell Josh Hawley, Eric Schmitt, and our Representatives in Congress how we feel about what they're allowing to happen. How they're standing aside and giving trillions of dollars in tax cuts that WE, the normal people,  will get to pay for. They do what's in their political interests and not their constituents because they know they have your no matter what. Sign this petition. Make them talk to us. Make them answer for what they are and are not doing. They work for Missouri,  not Musk.

The 2025 FLUM Amendments are the most CATALYTIC, needed, important, public policy decisions that you may vote for that brands the City of New Orleans "EAST" as Open for Business!! New Orleans East is Open for Business!  In the 20th Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans East can truly claim that it is addressing barriers to entry through Zoning Reform. This is the opportunity to conclude a 4-year process begun in 2021, to lean into land use zoning amendments as a fundamental, basic, key component to increase New Orleans East’s land use marketability to investors, both small and large.  

Details are still emerging, but Trump and his allies are quickly working to revive Guantánamo’s shameful legacy with an unprecedented effort to imprison tens of thousands of people on the island. The New York Times reports that migrants are already being housed in the same prison that once held individuals accused of being members of Al Qaeda. The very idea that facilities synonymous with torture could be used to detain people fleeing incredible violence and political instability is abhorrent. The potential for trauma, corruption, and human rights violations is sky-high. This plan is more than cruel and likely illegal. It will also be extraordinarily expensive. Maintaining Guantánamo already costs hundreds of millions of dollars per year, and expanding it to imprison immigrants could cost taxpayers hundreds of millions more. Every lawmaker who claims to care about “fiscal responsibility” or “American values” should be outraged — that’s why, with your help, we’ll make enough noise to turn outrage into action. Right now, as Congress puts the final touches on a bill to keep the government open past March 14, we have a critical and urgent opportunity to push them to deny ANY money to pay for immigration detention at Guantánamo Bay. 

Immigrant students are an essential part of our UH community, yet many face unnecessary barriers due to restrictive policies and lack of institutional support. By joining our campaign, you can help push UH to take action—ensuring immigrant students have the resources, protections, and advocacy they deserve. Together, we can make UH a truly inclusive and supportive environment for all.

We as Americans are just trying to live our lives to the best potential that we’re able to do. If our president can walk around a free man and leader of the free world, then we should be able to get a job at McDonald’s or Walmart even though we may have one or two felonies. Our president has been convicted of 34. The American people would just like the playing field evened out a bit, that’s all. 

Google’s quiet removal of cultural events from their calendars last year is part of a broader trend of tech companies and businesses catering to far-right and extreme groups by rolling back inclusivity and diversity.  The removal of holidays has come under scrutiny following news reports that Google is also scaling back their diversity hiring goals in response to Donald Trump’s executive orders, and has already swiftly changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to appease Trump.  We have to use our leverage to remind Google that they should be tailoring their company to meet the needs and demands of the public—NOT serving as a proxy for Trump or Republicans.  Show Google that their customers value diversity and inclusivity. Demand the STOP rolling back inclusive policies and bring back the automatic cultural events calendar! 

Dear Friends, Artists have always been a beacon of humanity, compassion, resistance, and truth. As actors, musicians, directors, and theatre producers, we are not just entertainers; we are storytellers, culture-makers, and, when necessary, fighters. Now is one of those moments when we must fight. With Donald Trump’s takeover of the Kennedy Center, we are faced with a stark and urgent choice: either lend our talents and credibility to an institution now under the control of someone who has relentlessly denigrated and attacked our community, or stand firm in our values and refuse to participate in this erasure of artistic integrity. Trump has decimated arts funding, mocked artists, and waged war on the very principles that define our work: empathy, inclusion, and honesty. Now, he seeks to use the Kennedy Center, one of our nation’s most prestigious cultural institutions, as a prop for his authoritarian agenda. We cannot let that happen. Our industry has little political capital in this fight. We don’t have the lobbying power of Wall Street or Big Oil. What we do have is our collective influence, our presence, and our refusal to legitimize those who wish to destroy what we stand for. This is one of the few times we can flex that capital in a meaningful way. That is why we are calling on you to sign the pledge to boycott the Kennedy Center for as long as it remains under Trump’s control. Do not perform there. Do not direct there. Do not produce there. Do not buy tickets. Do not give him the legitimacy of your artistry. Break your contracts. Weather the fall-out. Stand tall.  We know this is a difficult decision, but history will remember who stood up when it mattered. Our silence, our absence, and our refusal to participate will send a message. Join us. Sign the pledge. Let’s make it clear that the arts are not for sale.

The abolition of slavery is a cornerstone of American culture and who we are as a nation. The fact that any state constitution even leaves it as an open question catches the unfamiliar by surprise. In the words of poet Maya Angelou: "when you know better, do better." This petition is the first step to doing better. Why should we let Alabama, Tennessee, Nebraska, Utah, Colorado, Oregon, Vermont, and Rhode Island be ahead of us on this matter? If you live in PA's 38th State Senate district, sign this petition and help Pennsylvania join that list!

This is about who gets to exist in public spaces and whose stories get to be told on America's stage.  Drag performers have been attacked directly, resulting in bomb threats, armed protests, and mass shootings. But we've also seen how communities from coast to coast stand up for art and inclusion when given the chance. We're not going anywhere. Americans don't have to agree on everything, but we should be able to speak our minds and perform our art without bans, retaliation, or intimidation.  Join us in standing up for artistic freedom. Sign now to protect the Kennedy Center and free expression for all.

  Those affected by the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO) have suffered from the adverse effects of the penalties for over four decades, having been denied their rightfully earned Social Security benefits.  They should not be penalized further by being forced to wait months, if not a year or more, for the bill to be executed.
