It is important that Montana's senators represent all Montanans. Missoula County is the second most populous county in Montana. Our newest senator has opened offices in Yellowstone, Flathead, Gallatin, Silver Bow, Cascade, and Lewis and Clark counties. Why has he not opened an office in Missoula? 

Right now, CBS News is preparing to settle Trump’s baseless $10 billion lawsuit against them. Legal experts called Trump’s lawsuit “frivolous” and “ridiculous junk” from the beginning, because there’s no evidence CBS did anything wrong. But now, CBS and its parent company Paramount are caving, preparing to cut Trump a check to win his administration’s approval on a multibillion-dollar media merger they’re trying to push through. This should set off alarm bells for every American who believes in a free press. If a major news network is willing to abandon free speech and pay off Trump to protect their bottom line, what else will they do to stay on his good side? If you agree that our media should be holding the powerful accountable – not bowing to them – join us in urging CBS/Paramount not to cave to Trump >>

This petition is calling for an investigation, not to just flat out remove Alex Nguyen from office. The Council and the people of this city deserve to know if anything is going on that is undermining this City out of the view and transparency to the public.  If an investigation shows no wrong-doing, so be it. But on the other hand, if the investigation shows that he is not performing his job properly and in the best interest of this city, he needs to be removed.  When you put a cake in the oven, you check to make sure the temperature is correct and that the cake isn't burning. To just leave it unchecked could produce one heck of a failure of a cake.  We need to make sure our City Manager isn't secretly burning this city down with his actions and non-actions.

Because no one deserves to live in unsafe, unlivable conditions—especially when they’re paying rent. When we allow slumlords to get away with neglect and abuse, we’re not just hurting one tenant, we’re sending a message that people’s dignity and basic needs don’t matter. This campaign isn’t just about me—it’s about all of us. It’s about standing up for families, seniors, single parents, working people—anyone who has ever felt ignored, disrespected, or trapped by a landlord who refuses to do the right thing. When we come together and raise our voices, we shift power back to the people. We make it known that we will not be silent, and we will not settle for less than what we deserve: safe, clean, and humane housing. This is more than a complaint—it's a call to action. I’m asking others to join me because change doesn't happen alone—it happens when we show up together.

Thank you for taking time to follow our journey to open a new SixFour3 facility in Fairfax. Over the past year, the SixFour3 Fairfax Team has been working hard …we have leased space, designed what will be an amazing softball training facility (!!), and pursued a building permit to begin construction. Our hopes were to open in early 2025. However, a few short months ago, Fairfax County Staff ruled that we are not allowed to use industrial space for a softball training facility, which came as a shock to us all. During the last decade, countless baseball facilities and other sports training facilities have been approved by the County in industrial space. Some examples include Perfect Performance in August 2023, Pioneer Baseball in April 2022, Metro Baseball Academy in July 2021, Capstone Soccer in 2020, and Diamond Heroes Baseball in 2017…the list goes on and on. We feel singled out!! Our next step is a hearing with the Board of Zoning Appeals on May 7th at 9 am to try and overturn the staff's decision. To win the appeal, we need your voices to be heard!! Winning an appeal is no easy task, but we know the softball community will rally around us to help remove the barriers we are facing from the county to open SixFour3 Fairfax.  We believe it is vital to inform Fairfax County about the benefits of SixFour3 and would be grateful for your support in disseminating this information through your broadcasting channels. Want to do more? You can also write your own email to the Fairfax County BZA! We encourage you to share personal stories, your support, or feel free to use the sample language we’ve provided on the second page of this document. 

The STOCK Act of 2012 requires members of Congress to disclose financial transactions and makes insider trading illegal. Senators Adam Schiff and Ruben Gallego, joined by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, have been loudly vocal about the need for an investigation into potential violations of federal ethics rules following Trump’s tariff flip-flopping.  The people we elect should be acting in the best interest of the American people—not playing reckless and careless games with the stock market in order to line their own pockets and enrich themselves.  Constituents deserve transparency and accountability. Sign the petition to say NO to unethical insider trading and demand an immediate investigation! 

1. Protecting Children and Educators: Schools are meant to be safe environments. Joining this campaign helps push for laws that prioritize the safety and well-being of students and teachers. 2. Preventing Tragedies: Gun violence in schools has led to heartbreaking losses. Banning guns from campuses can reduce the risk of shootings and save lives. 3. Creating a Peaceful Learning Environment: Fear and anxiety have no place in education. Removing firearms from schools helps students focus on learning rather than survival. 4. Sending a Message to Lawmakers: Every signature shows that people care. A strong collective voice can influence real policy change at the local and national levels. 5. Standing Up for Common-Sense Safety Measures: Most Americans support reasonable gun laws. This campaign is not about politics it’s about protecting people and preventing preventable violence.

Troubling reports reveal a Trump administration push to propel a failed war on drugs into a reckless, devastating war in Mexico. Make no mistake: This is how dangerous ideas turn into deadly policies. How do we know? Earlier this year our sister organization, the Win Without War Education Fund, brought a team of former defense, diplomatic, trade, labor, and civil society experts, among others from the United States and Mexico to Capitol Hill to run a tabletop exercise to find out exactly what the outcome of U.S. strikes on cartels in Mexico would be. The result? Chaos, violence, and harm. Even a “limited” U.S. strike would trigger events ranging from a trade war, mass displacement, a crackdown on civil liberties, and a rupture in diplomatic relations. One thing had not changed: The amount of synthetic drugs crossing the southern border. Trump’s moves won’t halt the drug trade or help families struggling amidst a fentanyl crisis but they will increase violence and displacement within Mexico and ruin the critical, mutually-beneficial cross-border relationship. Luckily, Representative Joaquin Castro has introduced a resolution to oppose this deadly policy drift by affirming Mexico’s sovereignty. Congress must act swiftly to pass it and pull us off this misguided path to war. We’re organizing people across the country to join us in telling every member of Congress to cosponsor and pass the resolution immediately. Will you speak out now?

We, the people, invite you to meet with your constituents at a public Town Hall meeting: on Saturday, April 26, 2025 at 6 PM at Krutch Park, 504 Market St., Knoxville, TN, to discuss the concerns outlined above.

Why This Matters: • This initiative will protect vulnerable tenants from exploitation and unsafe living conditions. • It will deter landlords from neglecting their responsibilities and ensure they prioritize tenant safety. • It will improve the overall quality of housing in New Jersey. • It will reduce homelessness and illegal evictions. • It will promote fairness and accountability within the housing market. We, the undersigned, urge our elected officials to prioritize the safety and well-being of New Jersey residents by implementing these crucial measures. We demand immediate action to hold negligent landlords accountable and ensure safe and equitable housing for all. Sign this petition to demand change!

Reneging on that promise puts our military in danger of never getting help in the future.  It is a moral failure for our country.  Experience has proved that Afghan refugees resettled in the US quickly become financially independent and pay taxes and there are many experienced, local volunteer resettlement groups throughout the country willing and able to provide support. Lift the ban now and GET THEM OUT!
