  • Adobe Called on to Stop Advertising on Fake News & Hate Propagating Brietbart.com
    I am graphic designer that pays to use Adobe products for my profession. Adobe refuses to pull their ads from Brietbart.com which puts me in a painful dilemma...follow my conscience or make a living. I have spoken to many other visual and graphic designers that feel the same way. Adobe should not put us in that position.

  • Senators please don't vote for the ACA Repeal and Replace Act
    If the House and Senate pass the Repeal and Replacement of ACA; it will put many people in jeopardy. Medicaid must be kept intact - and tax credits are simply not an adequate replacement for them. My family and many others that I know will be seriously hurt if this program goes into effect.

  • Congress: Stop Trump from building his border wall.
    Dear Friends, Trump has only held public office for a little over a month, yet he has already started to plan in great detail one of his disastrous policies: building a wall between the US and Mexico. America has been built on the handwork of immigrants, who brought their styles, customs, and religions into our country. We have thrived off welcoming diversity into our nation, and we should not be willing to give up these values we cherish most strongly. We are a melting pot, and that is what keeps our nation together. What makes America great, is not only its economy, but it's acceptance towards those who are struggling all around the world, and working together with other countries to make this world a more peaceful and safe place. We cannot solve the worlds problems on our own. We need other countries' support in order to achieve global goals. We need to stand up for our values and prevent Trump from building a wall separating us from Mexico. Trump's proposal to build a wall not only goes against our Constitution, but it goes against humanity. Practically everyone living in the US today has ancestors who immigrated from other parts of the world. Donald Trump wouldn't be in our country right now if his grandfather Friedrick Trumpf never emigrated from Germany. Melania Trump wouldn't be here if it weren't for her modeling. What makes certain backgrounds more accepting than others? I am asking everyone of you to do your part to prevent Trump from following through on his measures. Congress needs to do their part by refusing to provide Trump with the funds he needs to make this disastrous project possible. However, in order for that to happen, citizens like me and you need to do our part by signing this petition and spreading the word to make sure others sign it as well. Donald Trump claims he is for the people, so let's prove to him a large majority of our people do not believe in the specific measures he is taking. America needs bridges, not walls, and we are going to eventually make this happen. I may be only 14, but I am doing my part to help the world and make it a better place. We have a voice, and if we all work together, no one can silence it. I would appreciate if you could sign the petition, and share it with your friends. Thank you.

  • Stop the Plundering of Estates by Court-Appointed Lawyers in Unwarranted Court-Ordered Guardianships
    Court-appointed guardianship does the exact opposite of what it says it does. It is plundering the estate of my mother without oversight. There are layers of court-appointed lawyers appointed as her guardian charging exorbitant fees that we are forced to pay because a judge says we must. It is a corrupt system that is legal. She has no access to her social security or retirement money.

  • Immediate Clinic: Stop Supporting Breitbart's Hate
    A social media campaign called "Sleeping Giants" led more than 1,000 companies to stop advertising on the white nationalist website Breitbart.com. Virtually every major corporation worldwide has blocked their ads from appearing on Breitbart. Breitbart is the white nationalist website formerly run by Trump adviser Steve Bannon. It's racist, sexist, and spreads hate against Muslims. Breitbart regularly has headlines like "Birth control makes women unattractive and crazy" and "The Confederate flag proclaims a glorious heritage." It is way outside of the American mainstream, even in these polarizing times. It's well past time for Immediate Clinic to stop supporting hate. Immediate Clinic should remove their ads from Breitbart.com and adopt a policy to ban advertising on any website that promotes hate.
