This case is being pushed by the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), whose record of anti-LGBTQ+ activism includes supporting the criminalization of consensual LGBTQ+ relationships, defending state-sanctioned sterilization of transgender people abroad, fighting to ban books about LGBTQ+ people, blocking life-saving care for transgender people, and spreading hurtful falsehoods about LGBTQ+ communities. ADF’s extremist agenda would erase LGBTQ+ people from public life and gut vital protections for children and families. Conversion therapy is NOT medical care—it is abuse masquerading as treatment. Survivors routinely report lasting psychological damage, while scientific reviews and countless testimonies show that these “therapies” do not change anyone’s identity but do cause immense suffering.  No free speech claim or “voluntary practice” justifies allowing therapists to inflict grave harm on vulnerable kids. Colorado’s law, like those in other states, simply prohibits licensed professionals from using their role to push predetermined outcomes of denying a young person’s authentic self. It does not ban supportive counseling; it protects youth from dangerous, distressing, and disproven tactics. State power to regulate licensed healthcare exists to keep patients safe—not empower ideological crusades. 

Trump’s reckless tariff threats would make birth control more expensive and harder to access for millions of Americans. For low-income families and people already struggling with rising costs of living, this surge in the price of contraceptives could be devastating. And with limited domestic production, tariffs on imports could disrupt supply chains and put contraception out of reach for those who need it most. Lawmakers in Congress have the power to act by passing legislation to exempt contraceptives from Trump’s reckless tariffs and ensure access to affordable birth control is protected. Sign the petition demanding Congress exempt birth control and other essential medication from Trump’s tariffs and defend reproductive health care.

Please sign and share this petition to show Vietnam—and the world—that the persecution of human rights defenders must end. Together, we can amplify Phương’s voice from behind prison walls.

When the village of Broadview, Illinois pleaded with ICE to “stop making war on our community,” ICE responded with threats to bring a “s*** show” to the Chicago suburb. Congressional candidates, clergy, and elected officials were among those peacefully protesting Trump’s immigration crackdown when federal agents made good on that threat, deploying tear gas and pepper balls on the crowd. Tear gas is a chemical weapon BANNED in warfare by both the Chemical Weapons Convention and Geneva Protocol. But these agreements allowed for a critical, dangerous exception: Use by domestic law enforcement. As federal agents and local police increasingly resort to using tear gas, including in response to legal and peaceful protest, Congress MUST ban the domestic use of tear gas and get it off our streets now. Today, we’re counting on you to help us send lawmakers a resounding message tens of thousands of people strong. 

This isn't just about one mural in one town. This is about the First Amendment and everyone's constitutional right to freedom of speech and expression.

In response to a post sharing a video clip of Rep. Jayapal, Rep. Gillette violently said that people like her should be “tried, convicted, and hanged.”  In the clip, Rep. Jayapal speaks in support of nonviolent protest against the Trump administration.  A majority of Americans are concerned about political violence. And, as the Trump administration attacks free speech and freedom to protest, it is as important as ever to stand up for the right of everyday Americans to speak out against their government without fear of violence or retaliation.  Remarks like Rep. Gillette's can stoke extremism and intimidate people out of exercising their First Amendment rights. They violate the House rules. And they demonstrate a complete disregard for the safety and well-being of the people he is sworn to serve.  Sign the petition to show that the American people reject this kind of violent rhetoric from our elected officials, and to demand that the Arizona House reject it as well.

Representative Mikie Sherrill graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1994 and served for nearly a decade in the U.S. Navy.  The Trump administration illegally released Rep. Sherrill’s military record to try to attack her gubernatorial campaign. It’s a shocking and blatant violation of privacy and security—putting Rep. Sherrill and her family in danger.  Ciattarelli’s campaign not only accessed these unredacted records—they distributed them, too. Releasing her unredacted personnel files is an affront to anyone in the U.S. military. As Rep. Sherrill posted on social media: “No veteran’s record is safe.” The New Jersey race for governor is heating up, and this debacle occurred with less than six weeks to go. It’s unacceptable for the Trump administration and Republicans to break the law for their own political gain. We need to send a clear message that voters will not tolerate this kind of behavior.  Rep. Sherrill, other veterans, and all Americans deserve transparency into how this transpired and the assurance that it will not happen again. Demand an open and thorough investigation NOW. 

Jenn Davis is a mom, an avid churchgoer, a teacher and overall a great person. Her firing was due to bias and hate. A school board member pushed harder for the loss of teachers' jobs due to his political opinion and it is not okay.

Ohio families deserve protection from preventable disease and dangerous misinformation. The current administration is undermining vaccines and spreading rhetoric that puts women, children, and vulnerable populations at risk. By joining the Northeast Public Health Collaborative, Ohio can stand with our neighbors to strengthen disease prevention, share lifesaving information, and ensure access to proven medical protections. Signing this petition tells Governor DeWine that Ohioans value health and the safety of our communities above politics. 

Rafael Lopez Gomez is a cherished member of his family and community in Las Vegas. At 56 years old, he is not only a devoted father and grandfather but also a pivotal figure in the lives of his US citizen daughter and two US citizen grandsons, one of which has autism. As a primary provider, Rafael plays an essential role in the emotional and financial well-being of his family, especially his grandsons who depend on his presence for stability and guidance. Recently, Rafael was violently detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents outside his home in Las Vegas. This traumatic incident has left him hospitalized and in poor health, raising severe concerns for his safety and well-being. Following his arrest, Rafael's attorney has filed a motion to stay his removal from the United States.

Amidst multiple lethal and likely illegal strikes on boats in the Caribbean, Win Without War is racing to push Trump off the path toward a new endless cycle of violence and devastation. Rep. Ilhan Omar has just given us a golden opportunity to stop Trump’s needless, lawless violence by introducing a War Powers Resolution in the House. Champions in both chambers of Congress are stepping up to do their part. It’s a critical start, but it’ll take more work to rein in the Trump administration. That means it’s our turn to pick up the mantle and rally lawmakers to reassert that Congress, NOT the president, decides if and when the United States. goes to war. 

Now is a moment the Dems can leverage their position to make real change. We cannot continue to weakly complain while the Republicans burn our country to the ground. We must urge our Democratic Senators to be strong and stand up to the authoritarian, fascist regime that is tearing our country apart.  Call your Senator and tell them to stand firm against the current vote to fund the government.  FIND YOUR SENATOR HERE: https://www.senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm Call today.
