• Make Train Tracks Safer.
    My daughter was one of the people killed when she as everyone in the community was crossing the tracks to go to work. She had seen many do this, and you could still see the old road way that was never closed properly. She had been riding the train for over 5 years and knew the schedule of the trains. The train company knew that there was a problem there with people crossing, yet they did nothing to stop this. There is no permanent fence in the area, and there is even a gate leading from the platform to the tracks.

  • No Uniforms Richmond County Students
    Richmond County students should have the right to wear what we desire. Wearing uniforms does not allow the students to express themselves, which is normal part of growth and development. If you agree that Richmond County students should not have to wear uniforms please sign and share. Thanks.

  • States’ Attorneys General must investigate all killings of unarmed civilians by law enforcement o...
    America needs to live up to its claim of Justice for All. Currently there is no justice for people of color, who need to fear for their lives, their children and loved ones, at the hands of those who are sworn to protect them. Congress needs pass legislation to combat brutal acts of racism, discrimination, and intolerance by authorities in the United States. Unfortunately there are too many victims to list, but I'm launching this petition in memory of Sandra Bland and the Black Lives Matter movement she so boldly embodied.

  • 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.

    I care about all the women and men who would lose quality health care if Planned Parenthood is defunded.

  • 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.
