Because it is the Right Thing to Do.

My petition is about Page County Attorney's office refusing to conduct a proper investigation and providing justice for Lily Ann McKeever, an innocent child who died while in the care of a State Registered Developmental Home, Class B. Lily Ann McKeever needs justice; due to this being a state approved Day Care, no charges were filed. This was my granddaughter and she needs justice. The County Attorney Office says we have a good civil case but not a criminal case. The abuse of authority in this case in small town Iowa needs to be stopped.

The mayor of Burbank, CA has created a members-only Facebook Group, named 'City of Burbank', to be "a virtual community forum that promotes open communication between residents, provides community news/updates and ultimately establishes one more avenue of bringing our community closer!" Membership is granted at the discretion of the mayor, yet many residents' requests to join remain ignored. Posts with dissenting viewpoints are deleted without warning. Concerned residents urge the Burbank City Council and Staff to uphold transparency and fairness by officially directing the 'City of Burbank' Facebook group administrators to change the group name and description to reflect its unofficial status, or state the membership policies and refrain from political censorship so that all citizens of Burbank can participate.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions lied under oath during his confirmation hearing about his communications with Russian officials. This is perjury -- which is a felony. He should no longer be the nation's top attorney.

We deserve an Attorney General who upholds the constitution and doesn't lie under oath.

We deserve an Attorney General who upholds the constitution and doesn't lie under oath.

The Washington Post just revealed that U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions lied under oath at his confirmation hearing about his own contact with Russian officials during the presidential campaign, when he was a foreign policy advisor to Trump. During his confirmation hearing, when asked by Senator Al Franken “if there is any evidence that anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign communicated with the Russian government in the course of this campaign, what will you do?," Sessions replied, “Senator Franken, I am not aware of those activities … I didn’t have – did not have communication with the Russians.” The only way for Americans to be able to trust that our government can act with integrity -- to know that our top leaders aren't compromised by a foreign power, and to trust that the nation's top cop follows the law that he is duty-bound to enforce -- is for Attorney General Sessions to resign his post immediately and for his successor to appoint a special prosecutor to begin a comprehensive investigation of Donald Trump, his campaign, and his administration. Anything short of that is flatly unacceptable and puts our country's security, our free and fair elections, and our justice system at grave risk.

The American people deserve answers and now; not the partisan dusting under the rug that Trump’s congressional enablers want, but a true special independent investigation.

Conjugal visits would help inmates who are married and help them to remain on their best behavior. It would help them to know what's important..keeping them out of trouble and close as possible to their partner for there would be something else for them to do and something to look forward too .. if they had conjugal visits being In Trouble would be the last thought on their brains.. they deserve to feel loved especially if they really want to change. I would highly recommend conjugal visits being in the state of Indiana for families to keep close and for inmates to stay on their best behavior so they can fulfill their needs and family needs.

NPR tells the bone chilling story like this ........ "A 19-year-old white man accused of kicking a coat hanger up the rectum of a mentally disabled black teammate received no jail time at his sentencing on Friday. Former high school football player John R. K. Howard entered a so-called "Alford plea," meaning he maintains his innocence while admitting a judge or jury would likely find him guilty. He was sentenced to probation and community service, and his conviction might be entirely dismissed at a later date." How is this even possible in 2017??? We have got to send a message to Judge Randy Stoker. Howard originally pleaded guilty to felony injury of a child and the original charge was sexual assault so how does this happen? The victim told the court that Howard sang a KKK song about lynching and taunted him about fried chicken and used other racial slurs. Two other teammates of Howard's also participated in this brutal attack and were not even charged. Now what do you think would happen if the races were reversed in this case? This is modern day slavery/Jim Crow behavior. We need Idaho Attorney General Lawrence Wasden investigated for allowing this monster to walk on a case like this. He had the nerve to say "he hopes now the victim's parents can find some closure and peace with the sentencing." What???? We also want this unfit judge off of the bench for allowing this insanity to occur! Remove Judge Randy Stoker immediately before someone else's child is harmed by a predator he let back out on the street!

TO END WAR IN SYRIA! TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY THIS TIME, NOT LIKE IRAQ. We have one last chance to get it right.

On March 7th, the City of Fort Collins will be voting on proposed restrictions to sitting and lying down (beyond durations which are still undetermined) on sidewalks, benches, and planters within the smoking restricted perimeter of Old Town. In addition, it will restrict leaving personal items unattended within these locations (also beyond durations which are still undetermined). Although the creators claim it is a restriction on "behavior", and not targeted to any subgroup of people, it will clearly restrict behavior most associated with homeless people. This is not a black and white issue which should be solved with a ban or restriction, but a nuanced challenge with many sides and possible solutions. Many of these people are ill, dealing with addiction, or have fallen on hard times. Most are already struggling and living on the edge. Simply imposing restrictions is an inhumane approach to a challenge we all share. At the City's final public meeting on this (at the Aztlan Center), the terms and wording still hadn't been worked through. It was a work in progress, which the public wouldn't be able to have any further input on. We can do better. We have to do better. In the current political environment with its restrictions on immigrants and other populations, now is not the time for our open and reasonable city to impose further restrictions. Let's instead work creatively to find solutions which humanely addresses the challenges of the populations most affected, and in doing so, creates better outcomes for us all. Signatures of this petition will be delivered on or before the voting deadline above. Please share widely as there isn't much time. Honorable Mayor and City Council, please do not pass the Sit-Lie Ban or any variation of these. Now is not the time. This is not the way.
