Between Trump Tower in NY and Mar a Lago in FL, businesses in both states are suffering, hurting our economy. I do not think the Secret Service should be stretched this far, as the President and his family are not the only reason the Secret Service exists. I do not think we, the taxpayers, should be paying all the overtime, overpayment, for weekend vacations, when Camp David is available and I believe the Federal Government, if they don’t limit this gluttony, should pay any businesses losing more than $20,000 a week in business who know they are losing per their proven financial history. Trump should not be taking money away from people, he should be putting it in their pockets, per his campaign promises.

I've started a Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/biggestdemoinworld/ to promote interest in organizing a mass human chain event. Some ideas that members of the Biggest Demonstration in World History have already come up with: *Not just one human chain but many human chains in cities, towns, neighborhoods, all occurring simultaneously *Larger human chains around symbolically important sites or around sanctuary cities *Hold the event on or near the Fourth of July The basic idea is for a "big tent" event that would unite protestors into one huge demonstration simultaneously occurring in multiple locations. Please share this petition with people or groups you think could get this event off the ground!

To give a voice to art therapists that disagree with the national AATA organizations alliance with Karen Pence , the second lady. I am an art therapist who will be negatively affected by Pence's uneducated explanation of the profession.

United Illuminating has refused the request of the city of Hamden, CT to install 3,000 kelvin or lower LED streetlight bulbs, ignoring mounting evidence of the threat 4,000k LED lights pose to public health, public safety, and quality of life. Moving forward with 4,000k installation against the growing concern of citizens in the UI service area presents a reckless ignorance of the current state of medical and public safety science, and callous disregard for public opinion in the UI towns and across the country. Implementation of 4,000k LED streetlights will be enormously expensive for towns and cities to undo if UI moves forward with its current plan. As citizens who care deeply about our neighborhoods and our towns, we demand that UI implement 3,000kelvin or lower LED streetlights in all future installations.

It is our responsibility to protect our progeny from creeping authoritarianism. Republicans act in unity and in haste, where they agree on anti-social and anti-freedom legislation. We need to be vigilant in order to stay the erosion of democracy.

The net effect of daylight savings time is negative. It doesn't save time. It doesn't save much energy. It causes deaths from schedule and sleep disruption. It costs millions for time and schedule changes twice annually. When will we admit this is the one idea Ben Franklin had that was terrible?

It would help the economy, help with communication, online learning, etc...

I work with immigrants and their families as an ESL teacher and know that immigrants just want a better life for your children. We need compassion for them.

Trump is in the White House and Republicans control the House of Representatives because of an outdated law set in 1911. This petition would eliminate that law and provide fair representation for all. Democrats would own the White House and The House of Representatives if we had "1 vote per 500,000"

Governor Hogan is considering funding charter schools rather than completely funding Maryland's public schools. Reduced funding will cut special programs from our schools. My grandson, a ninth grader, will lose many of the programs he now has in a public school.

The extra costs to support Pres Trump going to Florida every weekend are frivolous and wasteful, especially in light of so many facing cuts in critical services such as healthcare. It's fiscally irresponsible.

I believe that we should make it easier to register to vote in Alabama. The more citizens engaged in the democratic process the stronger our democracy will be. Easing the process of registering to vote is not a conservative issue or a liberal issue it is something that only strengthens our democracy.
