WE ARE PETITIONING FOR A STATEWIDE INVESTIGATION OF FAMILY COURT PRACTICES IN AN EFFORT TO STOP MINNESOTA JUDGES FROM HARMING INNOCENT DEFENSELESS CHILDREN. Minnesota residents are being bled of our most valuable resource, the innocence of a child, and because of which, we are slowly losing our grip on the future of America. Since 1998, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has continued a lengthy investigation into adverse childhood experiences (ACE). ACE is one of the largest medical investigations ever conducted to assess associations between childhood maltreatment and later-life health and well-being. They found that a child’s exposure to certain traumas, including domestic violence, child sexual abuse, or being separated from their primary care-giving parent, resulted in more illnesses and injuries to children in childhood through adulthood, i.e., social emotional and cognitive impairment; adoption of health-risk behaviors; disease, disability and social problems; and PREMATURE DEATH. This study demonstrates how a child’s exposure to these elements are a PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE. Yet every year, an estimated 58,000 children are court ordered into custody or unsupervised visitation with a reported abuser. Additionally, current research estimates that false allegations of sexual abuse happens less that 2% of the time, yet 85% of those children are court ordered into shared or sole custody with the parent that is raping them. Inadequately trained professionals tend to believe the myth that mothers frequently make false allegations, contrary to current research. Therefore, in thinking they have the needed expertise, family court professionals don't listen to domestic violence or child abuse evidence, experts, and they don't include current scientific research. Mothers are being forced into bankruptcy and poverty trying to protect their children, and their children are being irreparably harmed. Governor Mark Dayton, House and Senate Representatives, we now have the medical research through the CDC to declare domestic violence, child abuse, and being separated from a primary attachment parent a PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE. And the U.S. Department of Justice's Saunders report states that the STANDARD and REQUIRED domestic violence training received by judges, lawyers, and evaluators does not adequately prepare them to handle abuse cases. WE ARE PETITIONING FOR A STATEWIDE INVESTIGATION OF FAMILY COURT PRACTICES IN AN EFFORT TO STOP MINNESOTA JUDGES FROM HARMING INNOCENT DEFENSELESS CHILDREN. We would like to see you, our leaders, echo your constituents concerns, and ensure that the HEALTH AND SAFETY OF A CHILD WILL COME FIRST IN DIVORCE AND CUSTODY LITIGATION. We thank you in advance for your support.

I'm Senator Tammy Baldwin, and I'm taking on Wall Street's 1%. Our economy should work for middle class families and not just the 1%. Unfortunately, it's hard to level the playing field when Wall Street CEOs and Hedge Fund Managers are writing their own rules. That's why I'm leading the effort to stop Wall Street's revolving door and am proud to have Senators Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and Barbara Mikulski join my fight. The Financial Services Conflict of Interest Act would prohibit the practice of incentivizing private sector employees to take jobs in the government, make federal employees recuse themselves for two years in cases involving their former employers, and close the lobbyist loophole. Here’s how it happens: There is a fast-spinning revolving door between the government and private sector industries. Employees in the private sector can actually accept incentives from their companies to take jobs in the government. Then, once they become government officials, they only have to wait one year before regulating their old companies. The same thing happens in reverse. Federal employees can take jobs at companies they oversaw immediately after leaving the government. They can become “outside advisors” or “strategic counselors” and lobby their former government colleagues in an unofficial capacity that allows them to skirt legal requirements registered lobbyists have to meet. Americans should be able to trust that public servants are, in fact, putting the interests of the people first. But, it’s not easy when private-sector employees, namely from the financial services industry, take jobs in the government where they are tasked with overseeing their former companies. This practice is rife with conflicts of interest. Join me and sign my petition urging Congress to take action to restore trust in government by stopping the revolving door between Wall Street and Washington.

The Koch brothers (and their ilk) plan to spend big in state and local elections, and the left can't come close to that kind of money. But we have to prevent any more right-wing takeovers of state legislatures and keep the Supreme Court from doing further damage to our rights (like in Citizens United). Get off your ego trip and start helping protect non-whites, women and LGBT Americans from the Republican bigots!

Exit polls have shown HUGE inconsistencies in the actual vote. DNC has stopped the exit polls instead of investigating. Please investigate and re-establish exit polls if possible. Thank You.

Corpus Christi will not take this anymore. First multiple water boil advisories cause a financial strain on having to pay for bottled water. We as citizens of Corpus expect to pay a water bill and be able to drink our water instead of having to boil it. Secondly, Citizens have hit multiple potholes that have resulted in flats, dented rims, bad alignments and even worn shocks. We want Nelda to step down so we can elect someone responsible to resolve the streets and the water.

Freddie Gray’s family and the people of Baltimore were denied justice by Judge Barry G. Williams' refusal to hold Baltimore Police Officer Edward Nero accountable for Gray’s death. There is an epidemic of racial bias, police violence, and a lack of accountability in our country's police forces. Please join us in calling on President Obama to crack down on violent and discriminatory policing by issuing an executive order to direct the DOJ to enforce our civil rights laws more aggressively.

Candy the chimp is a highly social, highly intelligent animal that has been reduced to a dysfunctional shadow of what she should be, from the forced solitude, and exploitation she has endured. Not even her basic nutritional needs are met, as she is given COKE and CIGARETTES to smoke! Show support of Candy being brought to a rescue like CHIMP HAVEN, where she can live out her natural life in a more natural habitat. .

Bernie Sanders advocates many important and worthy ideas and the Democratic Party has an unprecedented opportunity to put these into effect by retaking the Senate, possibly even the House, as well as the Presidency this November. Mr Sanders, however, by his overly aggressive and divisive campaigning, may jeopardize this opportunity and play into the hands of the Republicans, who are only too eager to find a means to repair their deep disarray. Therefore, while MoveOn should continue to support Bernie’s ideas and proposals, it should no longer support his now futile campaign to secure the Democratic nomination at any cost. We therefore call upon him to use his powerful influence to help shape the democratic platform according to his ideas, but to relinquish his destructive campaign strategy, which can seriously damage the Democratic initiative and play into the hands of Donald Trump and the Republicans.

The University of Washington is cutting Teaching Assistants (TAs) in the College of Arts and Sciences. These positions provide the bulk of instruction at the University, and cuts undermine the core mission of our school. Stop the cuts now. Find alternative sources of funds to maintain education and scholarship at UW.

Every petition would brief is the governor's desk will reinforce our determination to stop dirty coal moving through Oakland. So I am passionately asking my friends – at least 20 of us – to send ours.
