I'm Heidi Miller, the Development Manager with The Yellowhammer Fund in Alabama, which helps Southerners access abortion care. As similar extreme bills continue making their way through state legislatures it's vital that we send a clear message to Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr. and the other members of the Supreme Court of the United States that we will not tolerate these attacks on our protected human rights. Alabama's extreme bill gives the state control over pregnant people's bodies and increases the already tremendous barriers that people seeking abortion care in Alabama face in accessing their procedures. Access was already a problem in Alabama which is why the Yellowhammer Fund exists. The government's control and politicization of our bodies is unacceptable. Families in Alabama, Georgia, Ohio, and communities across the nation are under attack as part of a publicly stated, coordinated effort to have the Supreme Court overturn its own legal precedent set by Roe v. Wade. This is truly concerning because some members of the Supreme Court are already signaling a willingness to overturn legal precedent on other cases. Sign the petition telling Chief Justice John G. Roberts and the Supreme Court justices to end these extreme policies which deny families the right to determine whether, when, and how to create a family. People espousing "pro-life" politics frequently talk about how much they love pregnant people and babies. However, their political agenda does not extend to ensuring that pregnancy and birth are safe for pregnant people or that parents, children, and families can access the health care they need to live healthy lives. In Alabama, for example, this means that a large number of pregnant people are going without the prenatal, birth, and postnatal care needed to ensure healthy pregnancies and birth outcomes. Maternal and infant mortality rates are high. We will work with trusted partner organizations like MoveOn to ensure the support on this petition is used to further pressure key decision makers, keep the story in the media, and give everyone opportunities to stay engaged! MoveOn members have already raised more than $30,000 for our work in Alabama and we're seeing generosity across the country—but we also need to make the Supreme Court respects the fundamental right to access an abortion, so we need to act now.

There are no major airports named after women in the United States nor has Eleanor Roosevelt gotten the recognition she deserves for her leadership on many issues.

To urge all Alliance for Retired Americans members, their families, friends or everyone subject to the GPO/WEP to increase their efforts to make sure the Congress of the United States enacts legislation to repeal the Government Pension Offset and the Windfall Elimination Provision from Social Security Act. New Bill filed by Representative Garret Graves, (R-LA) H. R. 82 Social Security Act of 2023 This Petition is updated periodically to reflect current legislation that seeks full repeal of the WEP/GPO.

In Washington, DC, our nation's capital, we have no voting member of Congress, and our local taxes and laws are subject to the control of Congress. This violates every principle of democracy and it is un-American.

This matters because rape is a serious act of sexual violence and should never be minimized, overlooked, or treated as something that can be resolved with an apology or a written assignment. When parents send their children to college, they trust that their sons and daughters will be able to pursue their education in an environment where their safety and dignity matter. They do not send their children away expecting something this horrific to happen to them. When an incident this serious occurs, the response matters. The people responsible should not be allowed to simply move forward as though nothing happened. If the evidence establishes that these individuals committed criminal acts, they should be held accountable through the appropriate legal process and face the consequences provided by law. They should not be protected from accountability because they are students, athletes, members of an organization, or affiliated with a prestigious university. It is especially disturbing to think that these seven individuals have mothers, sisters, aunts, cousins, friends, and other women in their own lives. Yet regardless of who they know or what their personal relationships are, every woman deserves to have her dignity and bodily autonomy respected. Sexual violence is not something that should ever be excused, minimized, or forgotten. We are asking for these individuals to be treated with the seriousness that the conduct under investigation warrants—not shielded, excused, or given a superficial consequence that allows the matter to disappear. If criminal wrongdoing is established, accountability should follow. This is bigger than one incident. It is about whether students can trust their university to take sexual violence seriously, whether families can trust that their children will be protected and heard, and whether people who commit serious wrongdoing will actually face appropriate consequences. We are asking Cornell and law enforcement to go beyond words and conduct a complete investigation, follow the evidence wherever it leads, and ensure that justice and accountability are not sacrificed for convenience or reputation.

This isn’t just about one student or one outfit—it’s about how our children are treated in their learning environment.  Students, especially young girls, are being singled out, embarrassed, and pulled out of class for wearing clothing that is widely considered normal and appropriate. Instead of focusing on their education, they are being taught that their bodies are a distraction and something to be monitored.  Dress code violations like this can impact confidence, self-esteem, and a student’s sense of belonging at school. It sends the message that how they look matters more than their ability to learn, participate, and grow.    These policies are often vague and inconsistently enforced, which can lead to unfair treatment and unnecessary disciplinary action. No student should lose instructional time or feel ashamed over clothing that is comfortable, functional, and appropriate.    This is about creating a school environment where students feel respected, supported, and focused on what truly matters—their education.    If we don’t speak up, nothing changes. 

By giving Queens Innovation Center a girls volleyball team it would encourage healthy activities like exercising and working out. It would also help the students in engaging in team spirit as well as socializing. Joining a team, specifically a volleyball team (a very team motivated sport) it helps the students create new connections with their peers. Sports, such as volleyball, also contribute to decreasing the sadness in a student's system. Working out and playing sports increases your happiness because it triggers your brain to release chemicals like endorphins, dopamine, and serotonin. These chemicals help lift people's mood, create feelings of calmness, and reduced stress.

In an October 2024 Connecticut Mirror poll, almost half of all voters and three quarters of Democrats listed reproductive rights and abortion as key issues. With the election of Donald Trump, the rights we now have in Connecticut are threatened by Project 2025’s plan to implement a national ban on medication abortion by pushing the FDA to reverse approval of mifepristone and misoprostol (the drugs most commonly used for medication abortions). On day one of his administration, Trump’s attorney general could also reinterpret the Comstock Act to criminalize the act of sending mifepristone through the mail. This would prevent healthcare providers from obtaining the drug, even though abortion is legal in Connecticut. It is vitally important that all of us who care about reproductive rights let our governor and elected representatives know that we want them to take action immediately to protect these rights. State Democratic leaders Martin Looney and Bob Duff have already written to Governor Lamont to note their appreciation of efforts by his administration, the Department of Public Health, UConn, and legislators who have been developing a plan to stockpile doses of mifepristone. They noted that Massachusetts, Washington, California, and New York have already taken this action. However, although it appears that there is significant support for Connecticut taking similar steps, there has been no stockpiling yet. [Courtesy of Elizabeth Vozzola, PhD.

It is important because it impedes on women’s natural freedoms and limits their rights

1. 400 volunteers have been going in to pour into these women.  2.The recidivism rate is the lowest in the State of Arkansas 20.45% 3. Studies show that all the programs used in there. Trauma therapy, recovery, and spiritual support have brought these women ways of healing and becoming productive citizens. 

This is important to embrace the femininity and female modesty of female students in TPSS, allowing young girls to express themselves and their feminine style.

It is important people in positions of responsibility be honest with the general public, so "we the people" can make intelligent decisions. Rep. Loudermilk's refusal to explain his behavior suggests he supported the insurrection, and is a traitor to the United States of America. But we can't know if he won't even explain his behavior.
