• Stop changing the clocks!
    This antiquated, disruptive practice no longer serves the people it affects. With this petition we are telling the Maine House, Senate, and Governor to stop the practice of changing the clocks in the spring and fall. Instead, let's keep Eastern Standard Time always in Daylight Savings Time, that is to say the way it is after we advance the clocks in the spring by one hour, never "falling back" in the fall. There are already too few daytime hours as it is!

  • Don't Defund Planned Parenthood!
    Senator Portman and other Ohio Republicans in Congress continue to play politics with women's health. Now, they have chosen to support the discredited "Center for Medical Progress" (CMP) videos instead of their constituents. Not only should women of any socioeconomic background be able to access abortion counseling and care (as is their right after Roe), but they should also have access to contraception, well-woman exams, cancer screenings, and STD testing. Planned Parenthood cannot be replaced in providing this care, as Crisis Pregnancy Centers are not required to (and do not) provide medically accurate information. Furthermore, these centers fail to employ certified health care providers (doctors, nurses, physician assistants, etc.) to safely and honestly treat their patients.

  • Parental Rights
    Hello, my name is Wanda and I am the mother of seven lovely children. I am a avid believer in nurturing and chastising my children in a fair way. As a mother of black children I feel it is imperative that my children are an asset to society. After disciplining my second to the youngest child for an unexceptional report card the schools social worker reported me and my parental rights were terminated because of severe abuse findings. In the beginning the goal was to return my children to me. I did everything that was required of me except pay child support, but I did support my children in other ways when I did have visitations. I am reaching out for support requesting that my children be returned to my custody where they want to be. My children want to come home. If I was abusive they would not want to be around me. Please help me get my kids back! Thank you!

  • Donald Trump to International Court
    Take Donald Trump to international court and trial him send him to jail. Now. For violating the first amendment and endangering children and provoking an dangerous environment. America has outstanding for her diverse cultures. French, Italian, English, African American, Chinese etc. It is called the land of freedom justice for all. The first amendment of the United states said that you do not discriminate, for religion nor race. Discrimination is a crime and he is openly provoking segregation. And hate. Our children are seeing this. And because he has money you don't do anything? You cannot support this. Hitler started this way. No one cared till it touch there personal life. Why wait? Italians are Latin. People who go to America hope for a better life. This attitude and wordings of Trump and whom support him create disharmony...resentment. And harm..these are the root that created a holocaust, gangs etc... The war of Korean and Japanese..those who live this kind of campaigns of racism. Jews, negros. .Know the magnitude of his comments and consequences. You must take action before the world looks at America as a land that allow unforgivable injustice. Our president and congress have to act. Take him to trial as an example of putting people over others disrupting peace persecuting a race.. He is Taking advantage of his social status. . America does not need this propaganda.It is not a good for us!! A mayor just suggested marking people!! People are laughing but the world is watching. History must not repeat its injustices. To forget our for fathers and the struggle men fought for to make America a better place to live in guarantying everyone's safety. It is not freedom of speech he is attacking a race..like Hitler. Please consider my petition seriously. I was born in America. I am not proud of his insults which I believe is a destructive conduct act.Now.

  • Continue funding Planned Parenthood
    Planned Parenthood was there for me when I had no health insurance as a college student, along with many others who have limited or no health insurance. Planned Parenthood is an essential organization assisting women in maintaining their health Cutting its funding will result in many women having nowhere to turn, a negative impact on our entire society.

  • Keep the prostitues and johns away from our school
    My daughter is an attendee of Community School of Creative Education in Oakland, California and witnesses the prostitution and johns on a daily basis. A child should be able to attend school in a clean, calm, positive and safe environment with surroundings of serenity. Seeing prostitutes dressed provocatively stationed at every street corner within a 1-mile radius every day manipulates our small children and older children growing into their adolescence is unacceptable. Witnessing such negativity on an everyday basis will lead our children to believe that prostitution is acceptable and something that is okay to partake in.

  • STOP the War on Women and Planned Parenthood
    Planned Parenthood is one of the nation's leading providers of high-quality, affordable health care for women and men. Not one cent of federal funds go toward abortions (Hyde Amendment), which represent about 3% of total services provided.

  • Remove Debbie Wasserman Schultz as DNC Chair
    Debbie Wasserman Schultz is guilty of dereliction of her duty as DNC Chair to get more Democrats elected throughout the country, especially when it comes to special elections like the one in her home state of Florida and the recall election of Scott Walker in Wisconsin. She does not support President Barack Obama when it comes to Cuba and the Iran Nuclear deal.

  • STOP the War on Louisiana Women and Planned Parenthood.
    As a MoveOn.org member, national members called my attention to starting a specific petition to Louisiana representatives, which would be more pivotal from a local constituent getting other residents involved with the matter. Louisiana already has a failing grade for its work with women's healthcare, and we need to reconcile this now by signing as Louisiana residents in support of Planned Parenthood and its excellent efforts.

  • Demand that Debbie Wasserman Schultz is removed as DNC Chair
    The democratic process in America has been chipped at piecemeal by outside forces since the birth of the nation; today, it is being attacked from within by the very leaders entrusted to protect it. As a constituency, we grow from engaging, open and vibrant debates. “We the people” have that in our blood. Open debates let us whittle down candidates until we get close to one that mirrors our attitudes and beliefs as Democrats. The current DNC chairwoman, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, evidently does not feel she is part of that process. Debbie Wasserman Schultz: She is bad for democracy She is bad for the party We demand that she is removed from her position as DNC chair.

  • American Women Need Planned Parenthood Health Services
    I have lived in urban neighborhoods where, without Planned Parenthood, many women would have no affordable access to medical tests, contraception, and accurate sexual health information. American women, especially those in underserved populations, need the important health services and information provided by Planned Parenthood. Already, the federal government does NOT provide funds for Planned Parenthood's abortion services, which are PRIVATELY funded and constitute no more than 3% of the organization's total combined budget.
