Governor Brown: Fully Fund the Cleanup From Exide's Toxic ContaminationWe must hold our government accountable for failing to strictly enforce pollution controls, and we must provide relief for the residents harmed as a result. Companies like Exide will continue to endanger people if they can violate laws and get weak punishments - let's make sure the government knows that if they let companies off the hook, they'll be held accountable instead.43 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alex Lukas

Demand Democratic National Convention Leader - "STOP using unfair Super Delegate system to contro...This petition is about returning to a truly "representative" government, and doing it NOW! Establishment power got into the "10%" by stacking the deck against the populace of America and continues to rig the entire system towards an ever-growing income, influence and standard of living inequality. This needs to stop before a 2nd American Revolution is needed.60 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ron Maehl

Take the Earth Day 50 Challenge!We’re destroying our oceans, forests and climate - but we can’t afford to. We dump 8 Million metric tons of plastic into our oceans each year, at a cost of about $13 billion in damages to marine ecosystems each year. Overfishing and pollution are pushing endangered whales, dolphins and other species to the brink, and costing over 1 billion people the food they need to survive. Slashing and burning the world’s forests sends more climate pollution into the atmosphere every year than all the world’s cars, trucks, ships and planes combined, and has driven dozens of species - including tigers, elephants, orangutans and jaguars - to the brink of extinction. And underlying all of it is the damage we’re doing to our climate: 2015 was the hottest year on record, and during that one year there were 10 extreme weather and climate events in the US that resulted in more than $10 billion in damages and killed 155 people. 195 world governments have pledged to take action and protect our fragile planet - but they don’t yet have the plans, tools and technology to keep their promise. That’s why we’re calling on the 50 biggest companies on earth to make specific, systemic commitments to: OCEANS: Stop pollution, and protect critical fisheries. FORESTS: Stop deforestation, start systemic reforestation, and shift to climate-positive agriculture. CLIMATE: Support/implement a price on carbon and build market demand for renewables and efficiency. We’re calling on all 50 companies to take the Earth Day 50 Challenge, by Earth Day’s 50th Birthday - April 2020.18,403 of 20,000 SignaturesCreated by Drew Hudson

Idaho Cranks Up Wolf-killing With Aerial GunnersThis will be the third year in a row that Wildlife Services has shot wolves from the air at the request of the Idaho Fish and Game Department. The stated goal of the wolf killing is to increase elk populations, although Idaho admits that elk populations in the Lolo Zone declined due to habitat changes well before wolves were reintroduced in Idaho. In February 2014 Wildlife Services killed 23 wolves in the Lolo Zone from a helicopter, and in February 2015 the agency killed 19 wolves. During the last five years, six other agency wolf-control actions in the Lolo Zone removed an additional 48 wolves.79 of 100 SignaturesCreated by sa reils

Support Tribal Sovereignty in Action: Oral Health Access!American Indian/Alaska Native children suffer the highest rates of dental decay of any population in our state due to the lack of access to care. Washington Tribes are unable to use their federal resources to employ dental therapists for their own people, on their own lands, because of the Dental Industry's manipulations of federal legislation. This bill would lift that restriction and allow Tribes to turn the tide on oral health disparities in their communities by employing dental therapists--highly trained, culturally competent mid-level providers that have a proven record of increasing access to routine and preventive care.1,264 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board

Hillary: Speak Out For MANDATORY Labeling of GMO FoodsThe FDA does NOT require mandatory safety testing of genetically engineered foods, but instead allows GMO makers to decide on their own whether their foods are safe for American men, women, and children to eat. We need the ability to track the emergence of unusual foods allergies and other health problems that may be brought on by genetically engineered foods. We want Hillary to speak out in her campaign speeches that she supports mandatory plain English labels on GMO foods .39 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda Price
