• No statute of limitation for sexual abuse & rape
    I was personally sexually assaulted as a child by a cousin without any recourse. Today's headlines concerning the many accusations against Bill Cosby make one thing clear: Victims should have a voice no matter how far in the past they experienced these horrific acts. These monsters should not be allowed to be do this to anyone else and must be held accountable for their actions.

  • Boycott Violent Rap Music BLACK LIVES MATTER
    Change starts from within! I see young black men and women everyday listening to sermons of death and destruction unto themselves and their own kind. This must stop. The children of these artists graduate from expensive private schools while the parents tell our children to kill each other for pennies.

  • Retire Bridgport Harbor Station power plant
    Burning coal to generate electricity is a leading cause of smog, acid rain, and toxic air pollution which includes, among other things, mercury, lead, carbon dioxide and arsenic, which contribute to adverse health conditions suffered by those communities living on the fencelines of these plants. Retiring Bridgeport Harbor Station would improve public health, lower climate disrupting emissions, and provide opportunities for cleaner, more efficient energy alternatives.

  • Mayor Coderre/Minister Lebel; Please do not waste $30 million to light up the Jacques Cartier Bri...
    The total designated for the above project is $39.5 million. Surely Montreal would be better off with a tangible monument to the creation of Montreal as opposed to the lighting up of a bridge! Jeanne Mance founded the Hotel Dieu and was a founder of Montreal. How about honouring her and the founding of Montreal, in a lasting way? The cost to society is 4x as much to have a person on the street, rather than to house them in such a facility.

  • Stop the GOP Attack on Single Moms!
    I know from experience that being a single mother isn’t easy. We already face discrimination and inequality. For most single moms, a job is the only thing keeping their families out of poverty. Now Republicans want to make it easy for a boss to fire a single mom or a pregnant woman on a whim. That’s not fair. That’s not right. Add your name and join me in telling Republicans they need to reject this bill!

  • Extradite Walter J. Palmer to Zimbabwe for Illegally Killing Cecil the Lion
    The sport killing of rare or endangered species is a concern for everyone. It is disgusting that an American with money can pay to kill an endangered animal. There should be laws in the US that do not allow this to ever happen again.

  • Fox and Facebook: Ask the GOP Candidates Why They Advocate for Profits, not Students
    Fox News and Facebook, in preparation for the Republican presidential debate they are holding Aug. 6, are taking questions for the moderators to ask the candidates. Sign the petition below if you want Fox and Facebook to ask the candidates to discuss their support of for-profit colleges, which leave too many students out in the cold with useless degrees and unsustainable debt, and raise nearly all of their revenue—and make most of their profits—through taxpayer-financed federal student aid.
