Block President Executive Order for Climate change

North Carolina is currently struggling to make sure every child has a textbook, every working person has access to affordable healthcare, and that every older North Carolinian can get support for their health and nutritional needs, but there isn’t enough money to go around. The North Carolina Senate wants to make this state of affairs permanent. They have passed a proposal to cap the state income tax rate in the state Constitution so that they can continue to give millionaires a tax break, while our communities struggle to meet basic needs. We need your signature to tell the House that regular North Carolinians reject this approach to fiscal austerity, and they must do the same.

I have worked with some of the men scheduled to be executed. They were part of a creative writing workshop I led from May to October of 2016. I acknowledge they committed heinous crimes in the past, and I grieve for the families of their victims, but there is NOTHING to be gained by the state's killing of them.

As a resident of California, Rep. Nunes continues to act against the favor of his California constituents in addition to the country as a whole. I find his behavior to be nothing less than a disgrace to his position, the constitution, and the stability of the democracy that his reprehensible actions immediately threaten. He has no place in our government.

I have had enough of an Administration that denies the facts and the danger of climate change. The evidence is clear and the Guardian indicates that this Trump government even has the gall of deleting the data points and facts in their own statistics. Scary enough for you? This is perhaps like saying Nazis didn't kill the Jews. The data points are being deleted! This is massive corruption and misleading of the American people and the world! We want to continue to keep the policies in place to stop the escalation of climate change and continue to install more measures. Already in South Carolina we have "dead" rivers uninhabitable by all living things, unable to be used by human and animal consumption. Our drinking water is in danger. Our tender ecosystem is in danger. Do any of you want to leave a clean planet for our children? Or does money at the expense of our lives seem more important? Do the right thing!

Corporations need to pay their fair share of taxes, not create tax loopholes or hoard money in off shore accounts. America needs infrastructure overhaul and decent people to run our government, not greedy politicians emboldened to corporations.

Public Education Advocates of the PA 34th senate district want an opportunity to ask Sen. Corman questions about his positions on public education. We want the town hall to be a time when working people can attend in a location that can accommodate as many constituents who want to attend.

Science and our health is being attacked by Trump's administration; it is a fact backed up by decades of scientific evidence that we must clean up the environment. If we do not make the choice to switch to clean energy now, our health and safety will decline rapidly and affect the rest of the world; we cannot afford to be selfish.

Lobbyists with the American Israel Public Affairs Committee [AIPAC] are pressing Members of Congress to co-sponsor bills that attack the Iran nuclear agreement by imposing new sanctions on Iran [S.722 & H.R.1698] [1] and attack Palestinian self-determination by promoting Israeli settlements in the West Bank [S.720 & H.R.1697]. [2] S.722 would designate part of Iran's military as a terrorist organization, which would obstruct contact between the U.S. and Iranian militaries. U.S. military leaders have opposed this move on the grounds that it would undermine the U.S. fight against ISIS in Iraq. [3] S.720 & H.R.1697 would erase the distinction in U.S. law between Israel and Israeli settlements in the West Bank and make it illegal for U.S. companies to boycott or otherwise discriminate against Israeli settlements in the West Bank based on calls by the United Nations or the European Union. [4] Urge your Senators and Representative to oppose these bills by signing our petition.
