To protect our Life on Earth!

The lives and futures of thousands of children have been jeopardized. Since I feel personally affected when a child on another continent is hungry, I am even more impacted by this atrocity in my own country.

In April 2014 Governance Expert Greg Gubitz tabled his recommendations on a way forward for ACPA when it came to Governance Reform. In November of 2014 at Policy Convention after considerable time and member resources the MEC abandoned the Gubitz Recommendations, basically in their entirety. Including the salient recommendation of the Membership electing the MEC Chair - Nationally. On February 23, 2016 the current MEC is holding a Special Meeting to elect their chosen MEC Chair among themselves. Has the MEC no regard for the costs associated with conducting a two day meeting in a Downtown Toronto Hotel to choose between two MEC incumbents, one being favoured before they even meet? Could this event be conducted over a MEC Conference Call or an Internal Webinar? Hold your MEC Member's Transparent & Accountable and consider forwarding this ePetition to the VCC Chair. Time is of the essence! We would like to collect a 1000 ePetitions in the next ten days. Not an easy task. We need your help! This original ePetition is only going out to 100 Active Members. If you are in favour of promoting the merits of this ePetition, please forward it on to fellow Member's in your email contact list. Without your help and involvement, this ePetition will fail. 30% or approximately 960 ePetitions are required for the MEC to entertain the request and more importantly to consider Conducting a Vote of the National Membership. On the reply section of the ePetition it asks for your Name and Address, this is a generic petition form. This is what is required to validate your e Petition with ACPA: 1. Rank & Name. In the comments section please include: 2. Base. 3. Membership Number which is your 6 digit employee number. 4. Date of Submission. Thank you!

We would like to see Representative John Lewis, as a long-standing progressive champion of democracy in Congress, use his unpledged delegate or "superdelegate" vote to reflect the rights he fought for and sacrificed to gain, has defended and protected—along with continuing to represent the values of the Democratic party—by not supporting a candidate before all of his constituents have had their say at the voting booth. We urge him to lead other Georgia superdelegates in committing to honor the vote of the people.

The forefathers of the USA have President's Day and some of them even have their own personal holidays too, besides having a President's Day. It is now time and long overdue for OUR Forefathers of Turtle Island to also be HONORED. We want a recognized day of remembrance of our Chiefs for their leadership, bravery and all that they gave for their people's future.

We do not want this facility in our neighborhood or any other additional facilities of this kind. We want you to know that we will stand in opposition, with the area businesses, faith-based and community organizations. Our neighborhood is already ridden with crime, and plagued with despair and hopelessness. A facility of this type will only add to the negativity we are trying to combat and will put the safety of our children, families, neighbors, businesses, and worshipers at risk.

Prince George's County Deserves Better!

As the parent of a 3rd grader who has been invited to participate in the Georgia Day Parade, I find it offensive and demeaning to myself and my child. To re-enact history, children were not allowed to associate freely. Therefore this parade and the associated celebrations need to be discontinued immediately. Tax payers funds are being used to facilitate the recognition of a period of time when slavery and the abuse of black persons was not only accepted and legal but also encouraged. As there is no parade to commemorate the Holocaust, there should be none to draw attention to a grievous period of time in Georgia's history. As history denotes, blacks were not afforded the same privileges as whites. There were no blacks celebrating anything with whites back then, and if we are going to re-enact history then it should be done correctly. I would instead suggest that students be given the opportunity to dress up as the career professionals they aspire to be and embrace a positive forecast for their futures.

Donald Trump has repeatedly belittled Latinos, Muslims, Black people, women and people with disabilities with his hate speech, misogyny, Islamophobia, and racism. This has greatly inflamed a national atmosphere already hostile to these groups and is inspiring a dramatic rise in harassment and violent attacks against these groups. Now companies like Google, AT&T, Coca Cola, Cisco, Xerox, and Adobe Systems are planning to bankroll the Donald Trump-led Republican National Convention. But reports are showing that many of these companies are growing increasingly concerned about attaching their brand to anything involving Trump and his divisive rhetoric. With a nonviolent public push from us, we can convince these companies to dump their sponsorships. And if these companies cancel their RNC sponsorships it could put enough financial pressure on the Republican Party and the RNC to bar Trump from the convention!

Our petition addresses a giant gap in the need for hands on advocates in dealing with corporations, wealth persons and those in power over small business concerns, groups, and or people. Grass rooted folks, watch dogs advocates have more flex abilities to make changes quickly. We the people have the court of Public opinion and out cry. As a senior women of color I have had my share of fights until a group in 2012 helped me win my case against the Wells Fargo Bank who stole my home. Yes! The group was Move-On and I WON thanks to your support. Now I want to put back to help others. This is personal and needs to be told so others can learn they can stand up and win. I truly thank the people of Move On and will state more in my up coming book.

I am sick and tired of BIG MONEY pushing me around and even taking control of the Democratic Party.
