Protect Seniors. Preserve Affordable Housing. Push Back on Displacement. The Flying Saucer RV Park in Sheridan, Colorado has been home to dozens of low-income seniors for decades. Now, it’s under threat. A private developer plans to bulldoze the park to build high-end apartments — but only if the city approves a rezoning request. That means the City of Sheridan has a choice: Displace elderly residents who rely on this park as their last affordable option, OR Stand up for housing justice and stop the cycle of community erasure. Why This Matters: • Real People, Real Lives: Seniors on fixed incomes, veterans, and longtime residents will be forced out — many with nowhere else to go. • A Precedent-Setting Fight: Losing this park would open the floodgates for other low-cost communities to be wiped out for profit. •  No Plan for Relocation: There is no safety net. This is not just a move — it's potential homelessness. • Community Over Corporations: Zoning decisions should reflect the needs of the people — not out-of-state developers. 🗣️ Take Action Now: Tell the Sheridan City Council: No Rezoning. No Displacement. 🖊️ Sign the petition 📢 Attend the council meeting 📨 Email your representatives Let’s make it clear:  Affordable housing isn’t disposable. Our elders deserve dignity, not eviction.

Trump’s deployment of the military to intimidate and quell local protests—without a request from the governor—is the first incident of its kind in sixty years. And the conditions that would warrant such an intervention were simply not met. Title 10 of the U.S. Code on Armed Services—the loop hole Trump is using to justify moving forward without governor approval—has never been evoked the way Trump is leveraging it. And this violation of our right to protest is costing us—literally. Deploying the troops to L.A. will cost taxpayers around $134 million.  L.A. is ground zero for Trump to see what he can get away with when it comes to abusing the powers of the U.S. military. And make no mistake, this is the blueprint he will use for other cities and states across the country.  Militarized presence does not quell social unrest—it ramps it up. Our federal government should be following the lead of state and local governments, not bulldozing over individual and state rights to silence dissent and exert control.  Add your name to the petition to urge governors to fight back against Trump’s militarized power grabs!

The Trump administration is collecting our personal information — and giving Big Tech company Palantir our tax dollars for this dangerous WH surveillance project. Palantir’s founder, Peter Thiel, is a billionaire Trump mega-donor. Palantir has received at least $113 million from the federal government since Trump took office in January. Fears are growing that Trump and Palantir are compiling a master list of personal information on Americans that could give Trump “untold surveillance power.” Congress must call for an end to Trump’s insidious surveillance scheme and Thiel’s data collection cash grab. Government officials say Palantir’s tech could easily merge information from different government agencies — giving Trump a coordinated set of personal data on everyone in America. The data could include hundreds of data points on citizens and others through government databases, including their bank account numbers, the amount of their student debt, their medical claims, and any disability status. Elon Musk’s DOGE chose Palantir for this anti-democratic undertaking, giving fellow Trump mega-donor Thiel a windfall of cash. If our elected leaders stand by and do nothing, they will allow the White House to amass unprecedented power and a detailed look into our individual lives. Trump would have all the information he needs to threaten, persecute, attack, and punish all of his political enemies. Sign the petition: Stop Trump’s dangerous escalation in government data collection. SOURCE: New York Times, “Trump Taps Palantir to Compile Data on Americans,” May 30, 2025.

I am writing to urge you to consider sponsoring and supporting a proposed piece of legislation called Topher’s Law. (Together on Protecting Human Ethical Rights) This bill is designed to reform Missouri’s guardianship laws to ensure that adult wards who are disabled or otherwise under guardianship retain their right to maintain family relationships—without unnecessary court hurdles or isolation imposed by overreaching guardians. Currently, immediate family members often face significant barriers in simply visiting, calling, or taking their loved one on an outing, even with the ward’s full consent. In some cases, families must petition the court just to spend time together—placing an unjust burden on those who should be presumed to act out of love and care. Topher’s Law flips that burden: if a guardian wishes to deny access, they must go to court and prove why it is necessary. This legislation: Centers the ward’s own voice and consent. Provides a court-appointed advocate regardless of the ward’s ability to pay. Protects against unjustified isolation from immediate family. Brings transparency and accountability to guardianship practices. I’ve included a full draft of the proposed law with this letter. I would be deeply grateful for the opportunity to meet with you or your staff to discuss this further. Families across Missouri—and more importantly, the individuals placed under guardianship—deserve protection, dignity, and a law that puts their humanity first

While business is important for our state's growth, responsible, regulated, and TAXED business is necessary for our state's survival. We demand that our representatives speak up for the people in our community, renegotiate the  standards upon which we solicit and accept industry in Texas by increasing the hire local requirement and instituting measurable accountability, and remediate, reinvest, and revitalize the environment and infrastructure in the communities they benefit from.

Sweeping cuts to the VA imposed by the Trump administration have already caused many veterans to be without critical services to treat head and neck cancers, kidney disease, and traumatic brain injuries. Vital services are on the line, including the VA’s cancer research program, support for unhoused veterans, and lifesaving resources for veterans seeking basic health care.  Millions of Americans depend on the VA for critical services—and Trump’s budget is threatening to rip them away.  Add your name to protect health care and assistance for veterans and their families! >> 

Two weeks ago, news broke that Trump is building a $5.5 billion golf club in Qatar. [3] Now, Qatar is offering Trump a $400 million jet to use as Air Force One, and then keep for personal use after his term is over.  That’s right—Trump wants to accept by far the most valuable gift in presidential history from a foreign government, and Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is supposed to impartially enforce our laws, is giving him the all-clear. Trump is not working for the people—he’s cashing in. We don't need to spell it out: This isn’t an innocent gift, it’s a bribe from a country that wants favorable treatment. And it’s a clear violation of our constitution.  And instead of treating this like the corruption it is, Attorney General Pam Bondi—fresh off of a $115,000 per month lobbying job for Qatar—is rubber-stamping this clear conflict of interest. But this is par for the course for Trump: While working people are struggling to put food on the table, Trump is securing a $400 million luxury plane for himself.  Help mobilize against this egregious corruption. Sign the petition and tell Congress: REJECT Trump’s shady plane deal from Qatar!

It’s a $45 MILLION project to stroke the ego of a man who dreams of ruling like a dictator.  The Pentagon is coordinating with the White House to plan a huge military spectacle next month. The latest details include 150 military vehicles including tanks rolling through DC streets, 6,600 uniformed soldiers marching past the White House, 50 helicopters, and fighter jets screaming overhead to recognize the Army’s 250th anniversary on June 14 — and perhaps not uncoincidentally, celebrate Trump’s 79th birthday.  But here’s the thing: This war parade simply cannot happen without support and cooperation from DC officials.  DC Mayor Muriel Bowser, alongside the DC Council, has the power to put up bureaucratic roadblocks at every turn, from requiring Trump’s team to cover the costs of police, security overtime, and road repairs, to guarantees protestors won’t be arrested or brutalized.  It’s all to say, there’s INCREDIBLE leverage to stop Trump’s tank party in its tracks. But DC can’t stop this parade alone: If we’re going to stop Trump again, Mayor Bowser needs to go toe-to-toe with the White House — an intimidating proposition for anyone. To do it, she’ll need to know that people across the country are with her — and that’s where you come in.
