  • Victims of sexual assault unite!
    I was sexually assaulted by three different people when I was young and I am now 46 years of age. I have been reading about other victims stories in the Daily News but Sen. Flanagan, the new Assembly Speaker, and Gov. Cuomo have failed to enact the anti-predator Child Safety Law, which lets victims prosecute their assaulters up to age 50. Orthodox Jews and the Catholic Church are against the legislation, which would favor the survivors/victims in adding further insult to injury.

  • Tell the Florida Legislature: Act NOW on gun safety reform!
    We lost 49 beautiful young lives in one terrible night. And the more we learn about the Pulse victims, the deeper we feel the loss. These were bright, young lives full of potential. Many were children of immigrants who came to Central Florida seeking a better life for their families. Many had found it right here in our community. It is shocking that one man, filled with hate, could cause so much carnage. It is maddening that this hateful man with a history of domestic abuse was under investigation for terrorism ties – yet, had no problem legally buying an AR-15 military-style assault weapon. I’ve had enough. If Congress won't act, we should. That’s why I’m calling for a special session of the Florida Legislature to pass meaningful, commonsense, lifesaving gun safety reform. My proposal: Let’s ban gun sales in Florida to anyone on the “no fly” and terrorist watch lists. It’s a commonsense idea that enjoys broad support in Florida and across the country. It also could have potentially stopped the shooter from buying the weapon that allowed him to kill so many people. Our call for reform immediately put us in the crosshairs of the Florida NRA. After we called for a special session, this is what they had to say: “These ultra liberal, gun hating Democrats, should be ashamed.” - NRA Florida lobbyist Marion Hammer Let’s stand up to the gun lobby together. Add your name right now to demand a special session to pass gun safety reform NOW! -- Senator Darren Soto

  • Put Democracy Back On The Table!
    The two words "Move On" were originally part of the imperative: "censure[as in 'impeach'] and Move On." In 2006, at the height of the Iraq War, the Democrats won back the House and the highest ranking Democrat and third most powerful person in the world took impeachment(part of democracy) "off the table." Impeachment is an essential part of democracy's "Checks and Balances!" Put it back on! Put democracy back on the table! Until this November the mantra will be "Stop Trump"(from becoming president) because he will take horrible(and impeachable) actions... if he takes these actions WE NEED IMPEACHMENT ON THE TABLE!!! The Bernie campaign has often repeated: "Too Big To Fail" can't happen again! With impeachment "off the table" will criminals be "Too Big To Jail?" "Too Big To Fail" can't happen again! "Too Big To Jail" can't happen again! Put Democracy Back On The Table! (note: This will help to restore faith in the criminal justice system)

  • STOP PIT BULL BAN IN MONTREAL
    I started this petition because I don't believe in any form of bigotry whether it's racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, biphobia, speciesism, and so on. I don't think any species of animal should be pigeon-holed. It is up to us to fight for this cause and I might as well be an activist and help Montreal fight this egregious law.

  • REDUCE GUN VIOLENCE IN CALIFORNIA
    998 mass shootings of at least four people in each incident have occurred in the United States since the massacre of children in Sandy Hook Elementary School in December, 2012. (Source: The Nation magazine, 6/16/2016.) Remember these mass murders? — Orlando, June, 2016: 49 people gunned down in cold blood San Bernadino, December, 2015: 14 people gunned down in cold blood Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, June, 2015: 9 people gunned down in cold blood Sandy Hook Elementary School, Newtown, CT, 2012: 26 people, 20 of them young children, gunned down in cold blood Remember them? How can we forget them! The common denominator in every single one of these incidents—as well as in the more than 10,000 homicide gun deaths that take place in the United States each year—is guns. We can’t count on the U.S. Congress to take effective action to reduce gun violence. The last time they passed any significant law to reduce gun violence was in 1994–over twenty years ago. That law expired in 2004 and Congress has refused to renew it. Each one of the proposed laws being considered by the California legislature right now is one step toward reducing gun violence in California. Sign the petition to urge our legislators to pass these laws, and to urge Governor Brown to sign them into law.

  • US Congress: Pass A Law to Ban Unverifiable Voting Machines Without Paper Trails
    Democracy is utterly meaningless if our votes cannot be verified. When we cannot trust the accuracy and fairness of the electoral process, we lose all trust that our votes are going to make a difference, and will we either become apathetic or we revolt. Our national leaders must act NOW to protect what is left of our faith in democracy. They must ensure that the 2016 general election in November is fair and verifiable across the entire nation.

  • Rename the HR "majority of the majority" rule the "Pedophile Rule"
    Our nation has been personally affected by this rule. It should be considered a breach of the people's will. Let me go on! The duly elected President of United States times two, possibly due to his race, has been obstructed at every turn. "The party of the Constitution," as they like to think of themselves, also known as the Republican Party, are really the party of "we don't care who you voted for go to hell, American electorate." Here is what could change: 1. Gun legislation 2. Responsibility for all wars and involvement in wars worldwide. Take responsibility for the Americans send to war and have killed without responsibility. 3. Immigration policy 4. Equal pay for equal work 5. Legislation for eliminating money from politics or the type of spending the way it is today. 6. Infrastructure program 7. Jobs program Et cetera Etc. etc.!!!! David B. Kline

  • Moveon.org should endorse Hillary Clinton immediately
    I just read the statement from moveon.org congratulating Hillary Clinton but actually being nicer to Senator Sanders. Hillary Clinton won the primaries and should be treated with the respect she deserves. Do your job move on.
