Information Accountability ActThe FCC is well behind the times when it comes to defending the public trust. The proliferation of misinformation is a big problem for the electorate, regardless of which side of the aisle you are on. People's lack of trust in the information they are getting has polarized our democracy. There needs to be some designation that is trusted by everyone to be at least mostly accurate and non partisan.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Paul Kimble

Congress: We Demand an EPA that Protects Our EnvironmentRemember the environmental disasters caused by DDT, Exxon Valdez, and hexavalent chromium uncovered by Erin Brokovich? American businesses have shown us time and again the low priority they place on the environment and public health. We need regulations to protect us and the businesses from themselves, but Scott Pruitt, President-elect Trump's appointee to lead the EPA, and Myron Ebell, leader of the EPA transition team, are not the men for this job. They have made their careers denying the legitimacy of environmental concerns, fighting so that business tycoons can fatten their wallets while the public is left to breathe polluted air and drink contaminated water. Republican or Democrat, conservative or liberal, we must all stand together and refuse to watch silently as our health is jeopardized and our environment is destroyed.560 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Thomas Fai

Petition to Declare Standing Rock a National Monument to Stop the Dakota Access PipelineIt is your duty as President of the United States to protect your people. You must protect the safety of Native Americans and their supporters who have gathered peacefully to oppose the Dakota Access Pipeline. We stand up for the sovereign rights of Indigenous people to land. The Dakota Access Pipeline threatens to damage land held sacred to the Standing Rock Sioux and other Indigenous nations. We stand against violence and repression. Indigenous people have been facing cruel treatment from the United States Government and its leaders for centuries. It hasn’t stopped. The National guard, North Dakota state troopers, and private security firms have meted out harsh treatment on protesters of the pipeline utilizing attack dogs, rubber bullets, pepper spray, and strip searches in their attempt to break the people’s opposition. Such treatment has been labeled as ‘inhuman and degrading’ by a report issued by the United Nations. We demand protection of our environment on which we rely on for life. The DAPL symbolizes our tendency to value crude corporate greed over environmental sustainability. Damage to the environment is felt globally. Water shortages, extreme weather, and temperature rises are problems we are all currently facing, and the devastation will continue to increase. The DAPL will release more carbon into the air, and risks endangering a source of fresh water for the Standing Rock Sioux and 8 million people living downstream. “A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people. ” ― Franklin D. Roosevelt #NoDAPL24 of 100 SignaturesCreated by The Political Revolution

Save our Loved onesHmong, Laotian, Cambodians and numerous other race from the south east Asia region have been targeted, hunted and executed for decades due to the CIA's involvement during the Vietnam war. This caused all these people to run for their lives seeking asylum in the US and many other countries around the world. Now the US government is trying to send these people with INS holding back to the very country that has been hunting, prosecuting and annihilating them for the past 4 decades. Any person from the south east Asia region entering the US on or before 2008 is due to them fearing for their lives and seeking asylum from the governmental persecution. Please stop the deportation of our loves ones to Laos and Cambodia.385 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Thao Yang
