I work for the Chicago Teachers Union. We are outraged that the Chicago Board of Education has known for four years that these toxic swaps with Bank of America were putting a tremendous strain on the school budget. However, despite being briefed, warned and provided ample information, they did nothing. We are taking matters into our own hands and giving the people an opportunity to create meaningful change and hold Bank of America accountable.

6000+ troops have died in the Iraq/Afghanistan war, more than 5 times that number have committed suicide, and 100,000+ have major injuries. One of those suicides was my friend's son. With so much unrest in our world at this moment, and our military troops being sent all over the world, a peaceful solution to Iran's nuclear program is the best solution.

I, Dr. Patricia M. Harris have started this petition because since 1993 on the steps of an inner city high school, I saved one student but failed to save another from gun violence. I too could have been killed, however, the gunman decided to run instead of shooting me in the back. There isn’t one day of my life that I do not think about the ordeal. Our country is worsening and we are in a state of emergency with gun violence. It is clear to many that gun ownership and the lack of its control takes precedence over the brutal, savage, and inhumane execution of innocent men, women and children. Enough is Enough! Denial that, “No More Needs to Be Done” will only allow violence to continue and fester. How many more children must die? How many more innocent worshipers must die? How many more innocent by-standers must die? Just how many more people must die? Let’s WAKE UP and Ignite powerful voices for stricter laws for the possession, use, abuse, and control of Gun Violence.

Senator Bernie Sanders deserves substantial airtime because we believe that his platform and policy proposals speak directly to the lives of middle and lower class American more than any other candidate in the presidential race. He is financed exclusively by the American people and as a result he is free to speak and fight on our behalf. The history of his political career demonstrates that his words are consistent with his entire record and that he is committed to fighting for all of the American people. As listeners of WHYY and NPR, we would like to hear Sen. Sanders proposals given substantive and consistent coverage.

Under the administration of Spain and America, I see my people dying and collapsing under economical hardships and an island mandated by so many regulations that it is virtually impossible to have an economy. The people of Puerto Rico have endured political oppression and psychological warfare created to divide the people by separating the island into sects set on propaganda and political denominations bent on selling our cultural identity for a couple of U.S.dollars. We need Puerto Rico to be free. The U.S. needs to guide us to help us build our economy, then watch it grow.

Not only are these two Great Lakes the source of freshwater for millions of people in several states, they also provide thousands of pounds of edible fish - all of which is in danger of being ruined if this decades old pipeline should burst. We in Michigan have seen how slowly Enbridge responds to pipeline leaks and the results in the Kalamazoo River are heart breaking, but they pale in comparison to what could happen if something happens to the 62 year old pipeline that runs beneath the confluence of Lakes Michigan and Huron.

We have lost enough lives and brought back too many wounded vets to let the possibility of diplomatic action pass us by. The President and his staff have worked hard to broker an agreement in Iran which may make it possible to avoid further conflict - please give it your full support.

Friday at the Netroots Nation conference, in one of the most powerful speeches of her career, Elizabeth Warren challenged power -- calling for fewer Wall Street insiders appointed to top government positions, while also calling out structural racism and declaring Black Lives Matter. She told those present, "Anyone who wants to be President should appoint only people who have already demonstrated they are independent, who have already demonstrated that they can hold giant banks accountable, who have already demonstrated that they embrace the kind of ambitious economic policies that we need to rebuild opportunity and a strong middle class in this country." Earlier this week, the Progressive Change Campaign Committee teamed up with Democracy for America on this very issue -- asking all presidential candidates to promise an Attorney General, Treasury Secretary, and other appointees who will fight for the little guy and challenge power. Elizabeth Warren continued, "The only way that candidates for President -- or for any office -- will slow down the revolving door, the only way candidates will say 'enough is enough' is if you -- YOU -- demand that they say it." Please sign the petition and share it with your friends.

This petition is about communities similar to Sandtown-Winchester in Baltimore where individuals return to after incarceration. Communities with accumulations of individuals who have records of incarceration but have their economic potential capped because of that record, thus starving the neighborhood of potential income tax revenue which is the main form of community financial support.
