Due to recent events in Charlottesville, and the current divisive political climate, People of Color need to be represented and showcased more in Walt Disney World, and all forms of entertainment. This petition is to bring Moana, Disney's only Polynesian Princess, back to Walt Disney World for meet and greets. The movie was a wild success, and the character extremely beloved. Moana is becoming an international symbol of hope for all ages, and an icon for modern feminism. She deserves to be present in Walt Disney World. Our sons and daughters look up to her and want to meet her when they arrive to the happiest place on earth. #BringBackMoana

Since it's conception, USAG (USA Gymnastics) has put the welfare of its athletes second to competition results and revenues. Failure from the board of directors and the administration to protect their athletes can no longer be tolerated. Continued claims of ignorance and the willingness to ignore allegations of misconduct in all forms has been encouraged by the board and administration for far too long. Fans, athletes, coaches, and sports enthusiasts have had enough. A true culture change must happen within USA Gymnastics and the resignation of Steve Penny does not go far enough. We are demanding the removal of board chairman Paul Parilla, vice chairman Jay Binder and treasurer Bitsy Kelley to begin the restructuring and rebuilding of a board that puts the welfare of its members ahead of personal gains.

I can't tell you how aghast I was when I saw MSNBC allow a Brietbart guy on two times a few days ago (and that is just what I caught that one day.) Racists, conspiracy theorists, and white supremacists should not be allowed to spew their garbage on national media.

The Lackawanna Sports Wall of Fame is incomplete as long as the greatest Steeler of all time is not in it!

The statue should be removed because it is representative of unethical experimentation on unwilling participants and racism. This should not be honored.

This weekend, white supremacists descended on Charlottesville, Virginia, to rally against the removal of a Confederate monument. In the process, they attacked counter-protestors, leaving at least one person dead. I grew up in Virginia and spent four years of my life attending the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. I am heartbroken seeing the community I loved ripped apart by their vile attacks. And I am appalled that in the face of this toxic hate, fear, and violence, our president can offer only half-hearted calls for unity. We cannot tolerate such attacks, and we must call out the newly emboldened hate group members. Since Donald Trump appears incapable of doing this, I call on every elected official to lead in explicitly condemning the white supremacists in Charlottesville and their vile, hate-filled ideology.

Trump just provoked nuclear war against North Korea on Twitter—again—which would kill millions of people. And that's not his only potential violation of the social media platform's terms of service.  A significant number of Trump's tweets have also included language of hate, racial discrimination, fear mongering, and outright lies. Tell Twitter to Delete @realDonaldTrump for misuse.

After news broke that North Korea has expanded its nuclear capabilities, Donald Trump didn’t discreetly and seriously handle this impending threat with the Department of Homeland Security. Instead, he took to Twitter where he's threatening North Korea with military action and posting pictures of bomber planes. That’s right. Donald Trump publicly escalated an already dangerous conflict with a foreign adversary over a social media platform. How long will Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey let Donald Trump get away with abusive and dangerous behavior that the average user would be banned for?

The ability to unleash nuclear weapons is the ability to initiate a causal reaction in which billions of people could die, one that would threaten the very existence of the world as we know it. The initial blasts would kill indiscriminately, and the fallout from radiation would kill infinitely more. We need only look to our own history for the lesson of these weapons: they possess far greater power than any man should ever yield. The wounds of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are far from healed, their scars a eulogy for this very day. Moreover, we are not talking about any man - we are talking about Donald J. Trump: a man who has demonstrated, with stunning consistency, a complete and total shutdown of critical thinking capacities. A bipartisan team of mental health professionals recently deemed his behavior "paranoid" and "delusional" (1). Even members of his own party have expressed their concern for his inability to faithfully execute the duties of the office of the Presidency. At the same time, the North Korean threat has increased significantly. In addition to the devastation they would bring to our friends and families in South Korea, their capabilities now reportedly include striking the United States at home. The President's foolish and unnecessary escalation of tensions on the Korean peninsula speaks volumes to his failure to comprehend the magnitude of our times. We have placed the greatest existential threat the human race has ever known in the hands of a man unfit to serve. Now, more than ever, we need strength from the rest of our elected officials, that they may stand tall for the American People - and in doing so, commit themselves to the defense of life itself. Let us honor our veterans and the People of Nagasaki and Hiroshima on this somber day; let us learn the lessons of our past and pledge to protect humanity from the atrocities of nuclear war. We demand that Congress execute an emergency measure to curtail the President's access to any and all nuclear weaponry or other weapons of mass destruction. Let it be resolved that any use of such meteriel requires the prior consent of 2/3 of the Senate. 1. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world-0/donald-trump-dangerous-mental-illness-yale-psychiatrist-conference-us-president-unfit-james-gartner-a7694316.html

We need the American free press to tell us the facts. We do not want Sinclair Broadcasting to spread Trump-o-ganda...we will not be distracted or brainwashed. Freedom of the press is to inform the citizens. Sinclair's "must shows" forcing local news to broadcast alternative facts must be stopped!

At this point, if a company is sponsoring Sean Hannity's show, they are essentially supporting a Trump propaganda operation. It needs to stop. Sean Hannity has a long record of right-wing chicanery, lies, and vitriol. But his program has morphed into something more dangerous than just partisan hackery -- he’s been exposed as a full-blown propagandist who conspires with the Trump administration to spread fabricated stories, smear detractors, and undercut the rule of law. 21st Century Fox (Fox News' parent company) won't hold him accountable. So, there are two options: 1) Do nothing; or 2) Take action to hold Hannity accountable. Spreading misinformation is Hannity's business model, and now he’s doing it on behalf of the Trump administration. His propagandizing has become so odious that he was condemned by some of his coworkers, who reportedly told The Daily Beast that the host was "'embarrassing' the network" and that "some people need to be fired. It's past time for Hannity to go. If Fox won’t fire Hannity, then advertisers should run as fast as they can, or else they run the risk of being complicit in his deceit and recklessness. Advertisers will get burned if they continue to associate with Hannity -- plain and simple. It's up to this grassroots movement -- individuals, organizations, and hundreds of independent organizers -- to keep up the pressure. Together, their efforts and your participation will have a tremendous impact. --------- Here are a few of Hannity's top advertisers: - DirecTV - Dollar Shave Club - Mercedes Benz - Mitsubishi - NutriSystem Full list here: https://www.mediamatters.org/research/2017/05/23/these-are-sean-hannitys-advertisers/216607

Our national gratitude and encouragement to ex-President Obama at this crucial time in our Democracy!
