Care for America everydayPeople can’t move forward with life and stay positive through this horrible time if they are constantly worried about losing there home, not being able to pay for lights, internet for school, car payments for vehicles used to care for families, essentials toilet paper, dog food? When will they stop arguing about the tits for tats and do something. It continues to get worse and worse in this country yet no one is doing anything to help long term only in the moment!6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dolores Stanton

Extend emergency covid-19 600$ weekly on unemployment for Louisiana until atleast DecemberThis is very important that this gets extended because still so many people are with out work. Jobs for everyone aren’t gonna come as easy as you think just because you didn’t extend the 600. Families are far behind and depending on this money for them to make it through. I know people who get unemployment who are constantly looking for work and can still not find it. Louisiana rate for the covid-19 are still going up. We need this help19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vanessa Delrio

Thank Governor CooperScientific evidence and facts were used to develop a clear policy that demonstrates his true concern for the people of our state and the rest of our country. He understands the negative economic impact upon the city of Charlotte as well as our state yet he put the health and welfare of our state above the money.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dave Recht

Cash app is holding money unlawfullyThis is important because a lot of people had their stimulus checks and unemployment loaded to the app and now they are unable to pay Bill's or do anything because all of the money is being held by cash app.142 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Kimberly Moore

Withdraw all Cannabis Tax Dollars from Oregon PoliceThe police departments in the state are already more than well-funded. The 15% of cannabis tax revenue (that’s about $109 million of the $725 Million total in 2019) goes to them is simply not needed. This money could go to fund much-needed infrastructure and create jobs for people in need of work (Economists estimate the unemployment rate is truly around 20% since the pandemic undid 10 years of economic growth in two months).102 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Appel

Hazard PayIt's important because we been working through this crisis the whole time. We never shut down working 12hrs 6 days a week. We risk our lives an family lives because we go home to them not knowing if we have the virus or not. An the Bosses are at home with there family safe not really caring about us. I know that people at my facility have the virus an the company just send them home spray the machine down an keep it moving. If we are going to risk our lives we need to get paid. I work for a billion dollar company an they will not pay us.107 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Latisha Walker

Open up the bars and restaurants before JuneIf you wait until June to open bars and restaurants, we will not withstand this. It's killing us. I feel bars and restaurants can remove tables to comply with the distancing, can only allow for a certain amount of people in at a time, limit hours of business, and have the sanitation in check better than what the grocery stores are doing.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jeri Derrickson

L'chaim – For Life: Yours and mine.One of the most important commandments in the Torah, Pentateuch, is the mitzvah that when one builds a house there must be a parapet, Deuteronomy 22:8, so that if someone falls “you do not bring blood guilt on your house.” The New Living (Bible)Translation of that verse is “... so you will not be considered guilty of murder.” Neither Presidents G.W. Bush or Obama used the word parapet, but they understood their responsibility to anticipate and create strategies, which they did, to prevent Americans from falling ill to the kind of virus that has now so devastatingly struck our nation and the world - strategies that specifically included those that President Trump has either outright refused to carry out, or has delayed in doing so. Further, since he took office President Trump has either fired or ignored most of his own intelligence advisers, ignored his predecessor's warnings, and disbanded the plans his predecessors had put in place and closed down important scientific virus research, as detailed on “60 Minutes” - 5/11-20. I worry that we citizens, exhausted by the impeachment proceedings, are unwilling to acknowledge the truth – that President Donald Trump is guilty of negligent manslaughter, because of his ignorant decisions and a lack of substantive action to mitigate the impact of the plague that has taken so many, many lives – a national disaster caused because Donald Trump refuses to have a parapet in place, while he publicly declares, “...I don't take responsibility’ for corona-virus failures,” or “I don't know anything about it.” (3/14/20). That is why I am pleading with you to do your part to help save lives.146 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Rabbi Philip Posner

Reopen NJ Bars & RestaurantsFor me and many of these businesses, this is our livelihood and way of life. What happened to pro-choice? By June 6th, it will be over 60 days of us complying and with no end in site. We have the bare minimum or absolutely NO money coming in but still have to pay our state and federal taxes along with utilities, insurance, etc. Please reconsider this. We the people have right to make responsible choices and if you want to stay home, then stay home. That is your right as it our right to run our businesses, support our families, and get our staff, who are suffering the most back to work.6,691 of 7,000 SignaturesCreated by Katherine Barasky Fama

Help for for SS recipientsThere is one group of people that fall between unemployment and pandemic assistance unemployment. Those drawing Social Security and Social Security Disability have been forgotten. Those that have Social Security as their only income have been greatly impacted, and there has been no mention of this group. Most of these folks are your parents or grandparents, aunts and uncles. They have worked hard all of their lives now to live amidst such a struggle just to buy food and medication and keep their lights on. Surely you do not want that for your family member. With the Back to Work program, there is a section of disabled folks that are allowed to work a tiny amount of hours each week, if medically possible (given their disability), within the guidelines SS has set up. They cannot pay rent, mortgages, pharmacy bills, even expected monthly bills such as electricity, with the one time $1200 stimulus payment! A lot of folks have had to double up and delay payment for phone or electricity for two months, while it was already difficult to pay just for one month. While all are thankful IF they have received the stimulus check, many that I know have not even received the first check!! They are going to be so far behind on all bills, where do they go for help? How can SO MANY I know even afford to EAT and buy food and much needed maintenance medications without ANY INCOME?! Retail Pharmacies do not allow you to run a tab and pay whenever! These medications are crucial in order to just function on the most basic, bare level, even staying at home. Chronic pain patients are very hard-hit. Those that are living on a disability check have had to stack up several months on some bills. There is simply no money at all just to exist! PLEASE HELP!! I know a lot of self employed people that make such a small amount of money and some are also drawing disability. They just cannot live on the disability check and the self-employment assistance WILL NOT be available to these good people. How do we help them??? They were barely squeaking by before now. We are the “richest country in the world” and to say these folks live on a fixed income doesn’t even begin to describe the tiny amount of money they have to juggle. This SHOULD NOT HAPPEN in the USA. #nooneshouldgowithout #allofusneedtoeat #helpthepeopleleftout #disabledandforgotten17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Margaret Autry
