Senator Donnelly: Support the Clean Power PlanUnder the Clean Power Plan, States will reduce CO2 emissions from power plants by 32% by 2030 (relative to 2005). Unfortunately, Senator Donnelly is opposed to the Clean Power Plan. Timing is everything, and as the world community is about to meet in Paris for the Climate Summit in December, we need our Members of Congress to support the CPP or we could miss the opportunity to reach an international agreement. The United States is leading global efforts to address the threat of Climate Change, but success in Paris will depend on the successful implementation of the Clean Power Plan at home. The time to act is now! Don't let Senator Donnelly and other Members of Congress hold back progress for Indiana, the US and the world!307 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Malvern Atherton

Petition for a Later School Start at Boston Latin AcademyResearch confirms the relationship between school start times, sleep deprivation and student performance, as well as depression and mod swings. Mounting evidence about the biology of Adolescent Sleep, and the impact of later start times has shown that starting early not only undermines students' academic achievements but risks their health and safety. Data from later starting schools demonstrates improvements in tardiness, absenteeism and performance.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jeffrey L Klug

FREE OKC TATTOO ARTIST JESSE TIGER *SERVING A 3YR PRISON SENTENCE*PROBATION VIOLATED OVER MISDEME...My husband Jesse Tiger is currently serving a 3 year prison sentence for violation of probation for a misdemeanor charge of domestic abuse 31 days before being released off his 8 year probation sentence. Jesse was addicted to k2 (synthetic marijuana which is more like heroin or pcp) for 3 years. I slowly watched as my husband destroyed his health, not to mention became a monster when he wasn't high. I knew this wasn't the man I married. I felt like I was screaming out for help but no one was listening because no one really knew about k2, so no one took it serious. Instead of sending my husband to rehab to help him with his addiction they sent him to prison. I begged the district attorney to send him somewhere he could get help but they wouldn't even consider it. Jesse was taken into custody on my birthday June 3, 2015 & Jesse is the sole provider in our family so when he was incarcerated within a couple weeks my electricity was cut off, I was legally evicted, & was homeless for 3 months. Jesse is a well known tattoo artist on the south side of Oklahoma City. He is currently first runner up in the top four finalist for OkC's Top Tattoo Artist of the year award that will be held November 6, 2015 at the Oklahoma Ice Event Center. My husband does not deserve the punishment he received & now they won't even let him transfer to a half way house in Oklahoma County because of the domestic charge. Shame on you Oklahoma for sending my husband to prison when all he needed was help!!!!! HELP ME GET MY HUSBAND HOMEBY SIGNING THIS PETITION SO WE CAN HAVE OUR LIVES BACK TO NORMAL & WE CAN GET BACK TO WORK.68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Veronica Tiger

Fire and Charge Officer Ben FieldsOn Monday, October 26, 2015, a Spring Valley High School student was body slammed and dragged approximately 4 or 5 feet by Officer Ben Fields, Spring Valley High School resource Officer. Sheriff Leon Scott who employed Officer Ben Fields upheld Fields behavior and said he "was acting in response to the student, who was refusing to leave class." Leon also said "The student was told she was under arrest for disturbing school and given instructions which she again refused. "The video then shows the student resisting and being arrested by the SRO." If you notice at the start of the video, Officer Ben Fields said, "Either you come with me or I will make you." he never told the student that she was under arrest so how do you physically make someone be placed in handcuffs or say that they are resisting arrest when they was not initially told they were being placed under arrest? and if she was placed under arrest her Miranda rights were not read to her. The first two videos show Fields approaching the girl who was sitting at a desk in a classroom. Fields grabs the girl's arm while putting his own arm around the student's neck. However, a third video from Instagram shows Fields body slamming the student while in her desk, but the student then hits the officer while he brings the desk to the ground. Then Fields began to drag the student to the front of the classroom where we then could hear him say, "You are under arrest". The person who posted the Instagram video says the student was initially asked to leave the class for telling the teacher that she would not put away her phone. The poster says the teacher disciplined the student with a write-up for being disrespectful and disobedient. After being asked to leave again, and refusing, an administrator came to remove her, and she refused. That is when the SRO was called in. The poster of this video claims when Fields got to the classroom, he asked her to get up from her desk 4 or 5 times and again, she told him no. After moving objects from around the student, and asking again to leave the classroom, and her refusing, that is where you see the officer getting physical. As you read, Mayor Steve Benjamin said no student in the class stated that Officer, Ben Fields told her she was 'under arrest' before he began to physically assault her as if he was a female fighting another female on the streets. We demand that you FIRE Officer Ben Fields, and that criminal charges are brought against him immediately.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by We Want Justice

NYU - Bargain with your Employees, Restore Library Staffing LevelsNew York University’s Bobst Library’s Access, Delivery & Resource Sharing Services Department (ADRSS) comprises six separate units and provides a wide variety of services to library patrons, which requires an equal diversity of skills from library staff. In November 2013, NYU unilaterally changed the titles and job descriptions of the ADRSS staff members, effectively merging the six units into one, and thereby changed the terms and conditions of their employment, without regard to the work they were originally hired to perform or their ability to perform the additional duties. The Union of Clerical, Administrative & Technical Staff at NYU (UCATS), which represents these workers, as well as 1400 workers across NYU, immediately demanded bargaining over the effects of these changes. The staff members themselves have twice petitioned library management directly to bargain with UCATS. NYU has consistently and repeatedly refused to enter into good faith bargaining, even after it was ordered to do so by an administrative judge, following a trial before the National Labor Relations Board, which was adjudicated in April 2015. This case is vitally important not just to the thirty members of the Bobst ADRSS Department but to workers throughout the University who could see their jobs unilaterally transformed without an opportunity to bargain the effects of changes to their conditions of employment.869 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Union of Clerical, Administrative & Technical Staff

Fire Officer Ben FieldsMultiple videos show school Police Officer Ben Fields brutally attacking a peaceful black female high school student. Officer Fields has a history of attacking students, who say they’ve complained about him for years. He’s facing a lawsuit from another student, and he was sued by a couple who he attacked and arrested without provocation. This time, his violence was caught on camera. The number of police in schools has skyrocketed, and every year thousands of students – disproportionately black – are needlessly arrested and abused. Local police say they’re “investigating” Officer Fields' brutality. But videos of what happened provide more than enough evidence he committed a crime. Join us in demanding that Officer Fields be fired and prosecuted immediately and that all charges be dropped against students already victimized by Fields.909 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Rashad Robinson

DOJ: Investigate the terrorist attacks on Planned ParenthoodThere was ANOTHER violent attack on a Planned Parenthood clinic. The latest attack was in Claremont, New Hampshire, where someone broke into a Planned Parenthood health center and used a hatchet to destroy equipment and exam rooms, and broke water and sewer lines, flooding the entire center. This is the fifth terrorist attack on Planned Parenthood since July--and the mainstream media have mostly ignored them. Local officials are investigating--but these are acts of domestic terrorism and require the resources of the Department of Justice. One week ago, the Justice Department actually created a Domestic Terrorism division for cases exactly like this. That's why we're joining our friends at NARAL Pro-Choice America to demand the Justice Department open a domestic terrorism investigation.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nita and Shaunna, UltraViolet

Expand Social Security.The Republican leadership has agreed to a deal to keep the government operating, raise the debt limit, and ensure that all Social Security benefits continue to be paid in full and on time beyond 2016. When hostage takers release their hostages, we are, of course, relieved that the hostages are no longer in harm’s way, but this is nothing to celebrate. That the ransom isn’t steeper is also not something to celebrate. The deal does include some good provisions: Medicare beneficiaries will not experience the drastically large premium increases that were set to take effect next year. It also closes a loophole that was introduced in the law relatively recently that allows wealthier Americans to game the system by claiming extra benefits inconsistent with the goals of the program. But there is a diversion of Social Security resources towards virtually nonexistent fraud. This focus on fraud is a distraction from Social Security’s one real shortcoming: its benefits are too low, and an overwhelming majority of Americans know it. Congress should follow the will of the people by expanding those modest but vital benefits and restore the program to long-range actuarial balance by requiring the wealthiest among us to pay their fair share. Join us in calling on Congress to follow the American people and expand Social Security benefits! The fraud prevention provisions will require workers with disabilities to wait longer to receive their earned benefits and may prevent some from receiving their earned benefits completely. That is wrong. And though there are positives in this deal, Social Security legislation, as a matter of principle, should always go through regular order, in the light of day. If that were done, Social Security would be expanded. That’s why we can’t rest on our laurels. We need to keep pressure on Washington to expand, not cut, Social Security benefits.12,658 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Michael Phelan
