The safety and wellbeing of our children is a priority! 

Local governance is a time honored American tradition.  Local governments know what is needed and what is best for their communities.  HB 2127 is extreme government overreach and should be repealed.

Trump knows that more and more voters are learning about Project 2025 and he's trying to distance himself from it by claiming to not know anything about Project 2025 or who's behind it. That is a lie. Many members of Trump's former administration and Trump allies are involved with Project 2025, and in 2022, when talking about the Heritage Foundation, Trump said, "This is a great group, and they're going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do and what your movement will do when the American people give us a colossal mandate to save America." Trump has a track record of inciting the deadly white supremacist-led January 6 insurrection, attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 election, packing the Supreme Court with MAGA Republican judges who have stripped away our freedoms and bodily autonomy over and over again, giving tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations, hurling racist, sexist, Islamophobic attacks, and more. Harris has tirelessly advocated for and fought for our communities and freedoms. She has fought to raise the minimum wage, protect our voting rights, make higher education tuition-free, reform the cash bail system, expand access to health care, hold sexual abusers accountable, protect our reproductive freedom and bodily autonomy, protect the LGBTQIA+ community, and so much more. Harris has a proven track record of putting people over corporations by taking on fraudsters trying to cheat the American people—and winning, successfully going after Big Oil, greedy pharmaceutical companies, and predatory mortgage lenders to deliver wins for working people. This is why she is ready to show up to the debate on September 10, with or without Trump. Will you sign the petition to tell Trump that voters expect him to stop playing games and show up to debate Vice President Kamala Harris NOW? 

La contratación de mataderos y la falta de supervisión de estos contratistas por parte de los municipios de toda la isla es inhumana y se considera en todo el mundo como un signo de una sociedad incivilizada. La cantidad de injusticias contra los animales en Puerto Rico que han ganado atención mundial sigue creciendo y hace que Puerto Rico sea un lugar indeseable para visitar. El dinero que se destina a los contratistas de matanza se puede gastar de manera humanitaria en coordinación con organizaciones 501c3. El apoyo a las leyes para frenar el crecimiento de los animales callejeros no le cuesta nada, pero le ahorra enormes cantidades de dinero. __________________ The contracting of killing and the lack of oversight of those contractors by municipalities island-wide is inhumane and seen world-wide as a sign of an uncivilized society. The number of injustices against animals in Puerto Rico that have gained world-wide attention continue to grow and deem Puerto Rico undesirable as a place to visit. The money that goes to the killing contractors can be spent in humane ways in coordination with 501c3 organizations. The support of laws to slow the growth of strays costs you nothing but saves you massive amounts of money. Please leave a comment for 𝐑𝐚𝐦ó𝐧 𝐋𝐮𝐢𝐬 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚.

Imagine having to choose between keeping your home warm during the harsh winter months or putting food on the table for your family. This is the stark reality that many West Virginians face daily. Appalachian Power’s proposed 17.6% rate increase will only exacerbate these difficult choices for over 74,000 customers already struggling with financial burdens. Our community has endured continuous rate hikes over recent years, with increases of 3.5% in 2021, 10% in 2022, and 15.4% in 2023. These cumulative hikes have far outpaced wage growth and cost-of-living adjustments, leaving many families unable to keep up. It’s heartbreaking to think of parents working multiple jobs and still not making enough to cover essential utilities. Despite these substantial increases, Appalachian Power has failed to provide reliable service. Last winter, many families were left in the cold and dark during one of the coldest periods in years, highlighting the company’s inability to maintain its infrastructure effectively. This lack of reliable service is not just an inconvenience—it’s a matter of safety and well-being. West Virginia also has one of the highest poverty rates in the nation, with 17.9% of residents living in poverty. The child poverty rate has risen to 25%, the second highest in the United States. Many of our neighbors are already struggling to meet basic needs, and this rate increase will push them further into hardship. It’s unacceptable that while families are making sacrifices, a utility company is prioritizing profit over people’s well-being. By joining this campaign, you’re standing up for fair and affordable energy rates. You’re supporting families who are doing their best to make ends meet. Together, we can urge the Public Service Commission to reject this unjustifiable rate hike and demand a transparent, fair approach to utility pricing that considers the real-life impacts on our community.

This issue is important because having clean water to drink and bathe in is a basic human need. 

Join this campaign for change so that all of these animals can live out the rest of their lives in a better place. No animal deserves to live their life the way these animals have had to. The big cats are trapped in small dog pens with nothing to keep them entertained. The alligators are on top of each other because they have no room to move around. The baby alligators are hit and shaken around in order to get them to “behave” when people tape their mouths shut and hold them upside down by their tails. 

This election 41 million Gen Zers will be eligible to vote, including 8 million new voters. Not only that, but 3.5 million adults of voting age have been naturalized in the U.S. since the last presidential election. That’s a significant number of people who can be mobilized to vote this election.  Celebrities like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift can use their platforms to reach voters in ways that are difficult for politicians to. Beyoncé has 311 million followers and Taylor Swift has 284 million followers on Instagram alone! And touring musicians—with tens of thousands attendees—can literally use their platform to register voters and get them energized to elect Kamala Harris for president.  We’re going up against Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans, so the stakes could not be higher. Last presidential election was record breaking for voter turnout, with nearly 66% of the population casting a ballot. With support from celebrities leveraging their reach to promote voting and democracy, we can break records again and make history.  Add your name to the petition to urge celebrities with a platform and a microphone to do their part to defeat Trump, elect Harris, and protect our collective rights and freedoms!

This summer, travelers nationwide have experienced firsthand how record-breaking heat debilitates our transportation systems. In the Northeast, Amtrak riders in the country’s busiest transit hub found themselves stranded for hours from delays due to speed restrictions. Rising temperatures are also causing outdoor rail tracks to deform, sparking brush fires on tracks, and putting further strain on power systems.  The climate crisis isn’t going anywhere, and with so many people relying on our mass transit systems to get to work, make it to doctor’s appointments, and spend time with family, it’s crucial that our transportation infrastructure can operate smoothly and safely under extreme heat. Sign the petition to urge Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg to center climate resiliency in his transportation agenda. 

In light of her contributions and the profound impact she had on our community, it is imperative that we join in this campaign to rename our street to Dr. Daniela Small-Bailey Way. Her unwavering commitment to education and her passion for fostering a nurturing and inclusive environment have left an indelible mark on our schools. Her genuine care for each student ensured that every child felt valued and supported, making a lasting impact on countless lives. Her legacy of humor, kindness, leadership, and dedication will always be remembered and cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing her.  Honoring her in this way will serve as a perpetual reminder of the extraordinary person she was and the values she championed, inspiring future generations to follow in her footsteps. We should join in this campaign to change the Englewood street sign “Durie Avenue” to “Dr. Daniela Small-Bailey Way” to properly showcase our devout appreciation and celebration of her love to the children of our community. Your support would be invaluable in ensuring that we properly honor Dr. Daniela Small-Bailey’s legacy. By renaming “Durie Avenue”, we not only recognize her contributions but also keep her spirit alive in our community. Thank you for your attention to this matter. It is time to stand behind this great leader and honor her name.  Thank You

People should join this campaign for change to support all of our families of Pineville High School. This is so important because many student’s families don't have the financial resources to follow this dress code. The dress code was sent out very late and many students have already bought their uniforms. I feel that if I were a parent of a child that attended PHS, I would be very upset and stressed that we are now finding this out 10 DAYS BEFORE school. I have talked to many of my friends about this, and some even mentioned that they will not be following this dress code because they have already bought all of their uniforms. I think that if Pineville High School had such a big problem with our dress code they should have told us before summer. Thank y’all for understanding!  GO REBELS!!!!❤️

Dear Mayor Stanfill and the City Council, I am writing to petition for Central Boulevard, which runs from US Highway 77 to Ovilla Road, to be renamed after former Red Oak alum Michelle Carter. Central Boulevard, along with the city, has seen tremendous growth in recent years and is currently the location of Red Oak High School. Carter is an excellent candidate for having the road named after her because she exemplifies what it means to be a champion, both on and off the field. Growing up in Red Oak, TX, it's hard not to think of Olympic Gold medalist, World Champion, NCAA National Champion, seven-time All-American, and four-time UIL State Champion Michelle Carter, especially during the Olympics. Michelle's achievements are not only part of Olympic, NCAA, and Texas history, but they also form a part of Red Oak's history. It's time we recognize this by naming Central Boulevard after her.
