Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey: Stop aiding voter deceptionEvery voter deserves to have their voice heard and vote counted. But according to the Washington Post & others, some Trump supporters don’t agree -- they’re targeting Clinton voters with fake ads that falsely claim you can vote by text message. The ads are made to look like official campaign ads -- one says “Avoid the line. Vote from home. Text ‘Hillary’ to 59925,” with a picture of Clinton and her campaign’s logo. Even worse, many of these deceptive ads feature and are targeted at Black voters and Spanish speakers. Activists have asked Twitter to remove them, but Twitter says that attempting to deceive voters doesn’t violate its terms of service. That’s no excuse for letting trolls use your platform to discourage Americans from making their voices heard. And while they've deleted some of the deceptive posts, there's more out there -- and no plan from Twitter to prevent this from happening again or to change its terms of service. We need to put immediate, massive public pressure on Twitter to take these deceptive ads down. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey is looking to sell the company right now, so they’ll do anything to avoid bad press. It’s great that new technology has made voting easier and more accessible -- like online voter registration and automatic voter registration. But there’s no such thing as voting by text message -- and lying about it to trick voters into staying home hurts our democracy. Twitter must take a decisive stand against voter deception, stop allowing trolls use its platform to confuse and discourage voters, and remove any and all ads on its platform that use false information to prevent Americans from showing up at the polls.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause

Nyack Needs A Ferry!Rockland County is the second highest taxed county in the nation, and yet we have practically no mass transit options into New York City. Our current real estate values do not keep pace with Westchester, and are not in sync with the taxes we pay. A ferry from Nyack to Westchester and Manhattan would be an excellent first step toward the mass transit requirements that Rockland County needs and deserves.1,318 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Nyackneedsa Ferry

Overturn the EXTREME 30 SENTENCE2- 30 year sentencing for a crime Donald Williams V24006was not responsible for. He was involved in a high speed chase (not in a commission of a felony) and he did not even know he was being chased and he has been accountable for the death of an office who was clearly violating the law by high speed chasing him on a motor vehicle.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tasha McCray

Nebraska: Don't Send Cops to #NoDAPL Protest at Standing RockOn October 28, Senator Bernie Sanders sent a letter to President Obama requesting that he intervene to protect Native Americans peacefully protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline. [1] At least 140 people were arrested at the construction site in Cannon Ball, N.D., last Wednesday after police moved in with tanks and riot gear, using sound cannons, pepper spray and rubber bullets. Hundreds of Native American protectors have gathered at the site since April to protest the pipeline’s construction on land they claim is tribal under the 1851 Treaty of Fort Laramie. States which have recently deployed personnel against the Standing Rock protests include Wisconsin, Indiana, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wyoming, and Nebraska, according to an October 23 press release from the Morton County Sheriff's Department. [2] Some Minnesota elected officials called on Minnesota authorities not to send police officers to the Dakota Access Pipeline protest at Standing Rock after it was revealed that the Hennepin County Sheriff had done so. [3] Urge Governor Ricketts and Nebraska legislators to discourage Nebraska law enforcement agencies from sending police officers to the #NoDAPL protest at Standing Rock by signing our petition.
