It is time to take action against those that choose greed over prosperity, money over truth, and self-worth over common good. This is just one of the many ways, we can begin to fight back.

In a recent interview, Laura, homeless resident of Tent City, begs Rahm Emanuel to hear the voices of the homeless. Laura wants help for the homeless with housing, food, and employment. There are human beings, citizens of America, who are not being helped and are freezing cold. The deadline is as soon as possible considering this a pressing issue.

MSNBC is providing biased coverage of the 2016 elections to its viewers! Recently, Joe Scarborough -- the host of MSNBC’s morning show "Morning Joe" -- admitted that he personally met with Donald Trump in order to provide him with debate tips. As if that wasn’t enough, Mediaite has reported on how Donald Trump thanked Joe Scarborough for being a "supporter" and a "believer" of his campaign during an on air segment of Morning Joe. These revelation confirms what many viewers already suspected - Joe Scarborough is using his role as anchor of Morning Joe to justify and even support Donald Trump’s extremist rhetoric. With the stakes of the 2016 presidential elections growing by the day, we cannot allow programs like Morning Joe to continue to embolden Trump supporters or promote Donald Trump's extremism. Influential members of the media like, Joe Scarborough, should use their platforms to hold those running for president, or any public office, accountable -- not give people like Donald Trump a friendly platform to spread their hate. It is completely unacceptable for MSNBC to turn a blind eye on Joe Scarborough's inappropriate public support for Donald Trump. We demand that MSNBC to puts an end Joe Scarborough’s biased reporting and expose Donald Trump for the extremist candidate that he truly is.

As a man who personally saw the african savanna and her beautiful wildlife I beg you to do as much as you can to save as much as possible of it.

On February 17th, at a Community Leaders Roundtable, Salem Mayor Anna Peterson requested Congressman Kurt Schrader's help with getting approvals and funding for a 3rd Bridge across the Willamette in Salem. We need to send our Congressman a message: Mayor Peterson does not speak for us. We oppose a 3rd Bridge, and we don't want or need the Congressman's help to perpetuate this expensive boondoggle.

It is my wish to see both Democratic candidates join on one ticket, regardless of who wins the primary election. Both candidates are strong, both hold very similar, if not identical views on various topics, and both candidates on the same ticket can WIN the presidential election! The following is a copy of a letter that was sent to the campaign offices of both candidates: Let me begin by saying that I have had a difficult time composing this letter because of its importance. It is very possible that I may provide too much information or not enough. I realize that this letter, similar to the phone call that I previously made to your campaign office, could fall on deaf ears or may not be brought to your attention. Due to the importance of the subject, I must take the necessary steps to ensure you have the opportunity to review and consider my suggestion. Those steps include: A. Contacting your campaign office via telephone B. Writing you C. Submitting copies of said letter to the media in hopes that they may ask for a response from you. After following both you and your opponent’s political campaign and extensively reviewing each of your platforms, I would truly like to see a democratic ticket that reflects the political expertise, the strength of character, and the ambitions of both Democratic running candidates. In other words, each of you should consider the other for a Vice Presidential running mate, depending on who wins in the primary election. To accept the premise that the needs and concerns of the American people come before any other consideration, political or self-serving, that via compromise and cooperation, it is possible to combine both platforms to bring about solutions to many of our social ills. It is my hope that the Democrats reach a higher plane and stop the bashing of each other in their attempts to prove to the people that they are best suited for the job. The American people deserve more than individuals with a single-minded approach to what we face as a nation. Let history show that the Democrats were first to say this election wasn’t Sanders or Clinton- it is Sanders AND Clinton and the people will decide who will be their nominee for President. I look forward to the possibility to discussing the pros and cons of what I have propose with you and your staff. Sincerely, Reginald Daniels It is my hope to get enough people to sign this petition who have the same breadth of vision and believe that both candidates can effect change in this country if they join forces and work together, rather than working against each other and essentially, against the best interest of the American people.

The #NC7 will be in grave danger if deported. They need to be released to their families and be allowed to fight their cases in the U.S.

As a resident of New Jersey, and a middle school student, I am personally concerned for the state of our government, the issue of money in politics and the corporate strangle on our democracy. The youth of my community and I believe that, since everyone is affected by the democracy, change is possible and necessary.

Oregon workers deserve a living wage. When a single parent making minimum wage can’t afford rent, it’s time we do something about it. I fought to raise the minimum wage in the Oregon legislature last session, because a living wage is going to have positive benefits across our economy. We weren’t able to pass it last year – but we won’t give up. Sign the petition: Tell the legislature to raise Oregon’s minimum wage! If we stand together, we can lift thousands of families out of poverty. Oregonians deserve a family wage – it’s good for workers and employers. Join me today.

I commute from Silver Spring to College Park several days per week. Additionally, several friends and colleagues rely on the J4 to get from Silver Spring or points further east to Bethesda for work. Bus commutes can be challenging, and the NextBus service makes it much more feasible, especially in cold or treacherous weather and for persons with health conditions exacerbated by long periods waiting outside.

"Newly revealed documents show that Exxon’s own scientists were aware of and studying the dangerous impacts of greenhouse gases in the 1970s and 1980s -- until Exxon’s leadership decided to shut down the research and promote climate denial instead, in order to protect the company’s unfathomably large profits. Now American citizens in every state of the nation are suffering from the damages of Exxon's unlimited greenhouse pollution. Devastating storms, catastrophic droughts, torrential floods, unprecedented wildfires, and accelerating sea level rise fueled by global warming have already caused billions of dollars in property loss, and led to death or suffering for millions of Americans. And the risks of continued global warming pollution to the United States are many times greater. Every Attorney General's Office should use all of the tools at their disposal to prosecute Exxon’s deliberate deception -- such as state RICO laws, unfair trade practices laws, consumer fraud statutes, or any other laws that are intended to protect American citizens from deliberate corporate misconduct. The state attorneys general of New York and California have already begun investigations into ExxonMobil and the fossil-fuel industry of their climate deception. Every state AG should join in to protect their citizens as well. The attorneys general of 46 states successfully sued tobacco companies to pay for decades of deadly deceit -- now it’s time for Exxon and the fossil-fuel industry to pay for their climate crimes."

Now Bay Staters -- like all other American citizens -- are suffering from the damages of Exxon's unlimited greenhouse pollution. Extreme and unprecedented winter storms, fueled by global warming, have cost the state billions of dollars. State fisheries are under threat from warming oceans. Sea level rise is already harming Massachusetts's coastal communities. And the risks of continued global warming pollution to the state are many times greater. The Massachusetts Attorney General's Office should use all of the tools at its disposal to prosecute Exxon’s deliberate deception -- such as state RICO laws, Massachusetts's Regulation of Business Practice and Consumer Protection Act (Ch. 93A, Sec. 1-11), consumer fraud statutes, or any other laws that are intended to protect Bay Stater citizens from deliberate corporate misconduct.
