• Limit Presidential use of tax dollars for vacations and use of Air Force one.
    This petition is to deal with the abuses of taxpayer property and funds to conduct both political party business and personal business. We now have a president making a weekly trip to Florida for golfing using taxpayer funds. We now have the President's entire family taking business and pleasure trips using taxpayer funds and equipment and personnel. It is beyond reasonable usage and is an abuse of tax payer funds

  • Tell Mitch McConnell To End Donald Trump's War on the Working Poor in Appalachia
    Millions of working families in rural communities from Mississippi to Upstate New York are counting on Sen. Mitch McConnell to protect critical anti-poverty programs from cuts proposed by Donald Trump. Poverty in Appalachia is a major problem that too often goes largely unnoticed by the rest of the country. That’s why Presidents Kennedy and Johnson increased investment in Appalachia through programs that address unemployment and poverty. However, Donald Trump wants to defund two of these major anti-poverty programs. Trump’s federal budget proposes cutting the Appalachian Regional Commission and the Economic Development Administration, and if he is successful, the results will be devastating for rural communities in some of the poorest counties in the United States. By ending these programs, he’s launching a war on the working poor in Appalachia and keeping millions of dollars of investments out of the region. Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, one of the poorest states in Appalachia, will ultimately have the final say on whether or not these programs are kept in place. That’s why we need voters across the region to take a stand and fight for these programs. Please join with me and demand that Mitch McConnell fight for the working poor across Appalachia. --- Sources --- Trump's budget would cut funding for Appalachia - and his allies in coal country are livid Brad Plumer - http://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2017/3/17/14951892/trump-budget-coal-country Budget cuts 2 sources of funds for rural Alabama Mary Bureau - http://www.timesdaily.com/news/state-capital/budget-cuts-sources-of-funds-for-rural-alabama/article_cb6eb877-1a27-502d-bc67-3c6b633c4842.html

  • No Cuts to After School and Summer Programs
    If we allow enrichment programs to be cut from the "Amreica First" budget, our children and their families will suffer. Many families depend on these programs not only for their chldren's enrichment but for the child care they provide.

  • Stop Trump's Trips to Mar Lago
    As a US Citizen, I am sick of our taxes paying for this family's lavish lifestyle, yet Trump wants to cut budgets to "Meals on Wheels", after school programs, school lunch programs, Medicaid, help for the mentally ill, etc. Instead of our taxes paying for "Trump" expenses, let them go to what is important, and if he insists on traveling so much to his "winter White House", let this so-called billionaire pay for it himself. Plus any trips his sons' make on behalf of the Trump Organization should be paid for by their company. Their secret service expenses are out of control. It needs to stop.

  • Student Loan interest reduction to 0.9%
    I am starting this petition because I am one of the many in this country buried in student loan debt that seems to go nowhere. I have no problem paying the loan back, but I do have a problem with the interest rates. It is out of control. It is in no way beneficial for students to even go to college anymore without grants and scholarships. Taking out loans is shooting yourself in the foot and trapping people in debt. This is why I have started this petition. So that Americans can go to school and not be buried in debt for the next 10 to 25 years of their lives.

  • Support the "Safe Communities Act" of Massachusetts (Senate #1596, House #3052)
    • Ensure no state support for a Muslim registry - It prohibits access to information in state databases for use in any federal registry program based on national origin, religion or other protected characteristics. • Focus police on crime, not deportation - State, local and campus police will not participate in federal immigration enforcement activities, including inquiries, investigations, raids, arrests or detentions that are based solely on immigration status. When police act as ICE (immigration) agents, victims and witnesses of crime are afraid to call police, which makes us all less safe. • Guarantee basic due process rights - It requires notice to immigrant detainees of their legal rights – in a language they understand.
