• Create a Highway 17 Express Bus Route From Santa Cruz County to Los Gatos
    50,000 people commute each day over Highway 17. With the recent storms and road damage, it's more clear than ever we need options to help get people to and from work other than cars. Right now Highway 17 Express only stops at Diridon Station (Caltrain Depot) and San Fernando & 5th outside of Santa Cruz County. This forces anyone working in Los Gatos to drive their own cars to work, not only clogging up the highway, but city streets and parking. Please sign this petition to let the Board of Directors at SCMTD know a stop in Los Gatos or two (Summit could be an additional stop to transport all of the mountain residents into LG and beyond) would not only be profitable, but it would be heavily used and the environmentally responsible decision for Santa Cruz and Santa Clara counties.

  • Transparent schedules for members of Congress
    In the past year, I have tried to engage with all three of my US Congressmen and have in all three cases been told blatant lies by their staff - that by signing up for their newsletter, I will get an e-mail notification of any public events they hold. This never, never happens. The only event postings I have seen are created by constituents to organize groups to attend town halls, and after-the-fact pictures on their FB feeds. They and their staff are colluding to make it needlessly difficult for the public to engage with them, and this needs to stop. It is undemocratic, un-American, and serves neither the interests of their supporters or their opponents.

  • Florida Care
    The repealing of the Affordable Care Act is going to effect the coverage of millions of Floridians. The healthcare of Florida residents should be a priority and all residents should be afforded the same coverage by all insurance companies that provide health insurance to Florida residents. Floridians need health insurance that provides free preventative care and chronic disease management, coverage of preexisting conditions, free contraceptive and birth control, elimination of lifetime and annual coverage limits, coverage until age 26 under a parent policy, and lower cost of life depending medications.

  • Protect the Free Press
    Freedom of the press is under attack with the unsupported allegations of President Trump that "Fake News" is being presented by the press. This allegation cannot be made if there is no proof to support it. The American people deserve a press free to present us the truth even if that truth is not what President Trump wants us to know.

  • Kill Republican Efforts to Cut Wealthy Taxpayer Taxes
    Please go to http://www.kansasbudget.com to see that the common Republican initiative to cut taxes on the wealthy to improve the economic condition of all DOES NOT WORK! The failed State of Kansas experiment in this regard CLEARLY VERIFIES that the THEORY that cutting taxes on the wealthy to create increased economic activity which benefits everyone, including the poor, DOES NOT WORK! We do not need President Trump and the Federal Congress to impose this rediculous theory on all of us.

  • Wells Fargo, Citibank, and Bank of America: If you don't pull out of DAPL, We're moving on!!!
    I am outraged that once again Native Americans are being abused--their lands desecrated, their water contaminated, all for the short-term profits of Big Banks and Big Oil. I cherish our earth as they do, and mourn its destruction.

  • Vote NO on House Bill 610
    This bill eliminates the Elementary and Secondary Education Bill of 1965. If passed, it would redistribute Federal funds for public elementary and secondary education in the form of vouchers for eligible students; it would repeal a rule relating to nutrition standards in schools and would cut programs for special needs, advanced, and language learners.

  • Governor Hogan: Do What's Right for Immigrants
    I have colleagues and friends who are being traumatized by the current administration's actions re. immigrants. In my view this is NOT America! Exactly what is America to look like if Trump gets his way and "America is brought back to its greatness?"

  • Democrats: Boycott Trump’s First Address to Congress
    I am frightened at the prospect that more Americans will suffer under a deliberate effort of the Trump administration to denigrate immigrants, perpetuate greater economic inequities, severe our ties to our allies and the global economy. I fear the platform that Mr. Trump has given to White Supremacists and others who fail to respect and appreciate our differences.

  • Mass deportation is BAD for America
    Our community is 85% Hispanic. We have moved from 4th poorest city to 51st because of growth and investment here. Now law abiding and tax paying people are living in fear of deportation for themselves or a family member. 20,000 Dreamers attend college here and are feeling threatened. This is unnecessary!
