HIS LUNGS WERE 70 % COLLAPSED AND HE WAS BLEEDING IN HIS GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT WHEN HE WAS PUT ON THE LIFE FLIGHT TO IOWA CITY. BRET'S 20 YEAR OLD SISTER WHOM HE LIVES WITH HAS A 1 YR OLD BABY AND NEEDS TO WORK TO KEEP THEIR HOME SHE CAN NOT AFFORD TO DRIVE 5 HOURS TO THE HOSPITAL. PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THESE CHILDREN TO GO THROUGH THIS WITHOUT THEIR DAD BECAUSE HIS DAD ROBED A BANK WITHOUT THEIR FATHER. JEFF SCHOON DID NOT USE A WEAPON WHEN HE ROBBED THE BANKS TO SUPPORT HIS TERMINALLY ILL CHILD'S MEDICAL TREATMENTS AND TO TAKE HIM TO DISNEYLAND. POLICE HARASSMENT KEPT JEFF FROM GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT AND FORCED HIM TO ABANDON THE BUSINESS HE TOOK OVER WHEN BRET'S GRANDPA GOT ILL. JEFF ABANDONED HIS BUSINESS AND MOVED OUT OF POCAHONTAS COUNTY IOWA BECAUSE THE POLICE THREATENED HIS CHILDREN. JEFFREY ALAN SCHOON - SINGLE FATHER Register Number: 12179-029 Age: 50 Race: White Sex: Male Located at: Sandstone FCI Release Date: 04/23/2025 PLEASE LET JEFFREY SCHOON & BRET SCHOON BE TOGETHER BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE NO CHILD DESERVES TO SERVE THE SENTENCE WITCH BRET IS CURRENTLY SERVING Please sign this petition because this boy needs his dad. Prison can wait at least until after his son is out of the hospital however it would be best for Brett to have his dad back home with him as he was his main care giver and Jeff knows how to care for him better than anyone else. Jeff never resisted arrest and was transported to the prison by Pocahontas County Sheriff Robert Lampie With Out Restraints in the front seat. He will go back willingly as he went in. ROBERT LAMPIE's HARASSMENT and threats to harm Jeffs children made JEFF leave his junk yard in Pocahontas county Iowa and caused him to plead guilty to many crimes witch he did not commit. When Jeff was running his junk yard he was able to work around Brett's Medical Care and make money legally by recycling scrap metal and selling used car parts. The Sheriff of Pocahontas County Iowa is well known for demanding self incrimination and lying to remove children from the homes of people who refuse to cooperate with his creation of crime statistics. Jeff was transported peacefully and unrestrained by the same man whom was making it difficult for Jeff to run his business. Jeff is not violent and is not a threat to anyone but his absence is a threat to his son Bret's life. Two days ago Bret had one lung collapse and was bleeding in the other he was put on a life flight and had an emergency surgery. He is currently stable in a drug induced coma in the Incentive Care Unit at the University of Iowa Hospital. No terminally ill child should be forced to go through what Bret is going through alone when he has a loving father whom is alive and wants to be by his side. Before Jeff was incarcerated he would hitch hike to get to the hospital to be with his son if he did not have the money or a car to get there. Bret does not deserve to serve this sentence as he has committed no crime. Please sign this petition so this boy does not die in a hospital alone. It is not often we ask for a person to be released from prison but there is always an exception to every rule. Please sign this so the father may home with his child. We as parents often times are at a breaking point and when you read his story,please understand as all of parents do he LOVED his son not an excuse but a reason. PLEASE SIGN. JEFF SCHOON: SINGLE FATHER OF 2 currently IN FCI SANDSTONE a LOW SECURITY FEDERAL CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION in MN, ROBBED BANK WITHOUT A WEAPON to CARE FOR HIS TERMINALLY ILL CHILD AND TAKE HIM TO DISNEYLAND PLEASE LET JEFFREY SCHOON & BRET SCHOON BE TOGETHER BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE NO CHILD DESERVES TO SERVE THE SENTENCE WITCH BRET IS CURRENTLY SERVING Please sign this petition because this boy needs his dad.

  • Stop Smart Meters in Rains County
    I am a physician who practices environmental medicine and have seen many people who are becoming ill and electrically sensitive after a smart meter was installed on their home. The thousands of scientific studies showing harmful effects from this type of radiation are not being considered by the FCC for safe limits of exposure. It has been declared a carcinogen by the World Health Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer.

  • Bernie Sanders: Help Stop Congress From Backing Settlements
    Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has just announced that he is running for the Democratic nomination for president. Welcoming him to the race, the Democratic National Committee wrote: “Having a wide range of progressive views in this race is good for the dialogue of our party and for our country. And Bernie Sanders is a progressive champion… We couldn't be more excited to hear him to say he's in.” Bernie has been a champion for peace and diplomacy. He was the first Senator to announce that he would skip Netanyahu’s anti-diplomacy speech to Congress. [1] Bernie’s influence is going to grow, now that he’s an announced candidate for President. And, he remains a United States Senator. We need Bernie’s help to remove an anti-peace provision of the trade bills currently before Congress. This provision would make it US policy to endorse Israeli settlements in the West Bank by saying that the US has to oppose European measures to restrict trade with these settlements. [2] This provision is opposed by J Street [3], Americans for Peace Now [4], and JVP [5]. Bernie’s against Fast Track for the TPP trade deal, which is the main thing that people are fighting about on the trade package. But that doesn’t mean he can’t use his influence to help us – other Democrats in Congress who oppose the current Fast Track proposal are using their influence to try to get the pro-settlement provision out of the trade package. Welcome Bernie to the race, and urge him to use his influence to help us remove the pro-settlement provision from the trade legislation, by signing our petition.

  • Oregon: Adopt NCARB IDP Streamline
    In an industry that is facing a potential shortage of licensed practitioners, streamlining the process should be a priority. With an average of 5.3 years to complete IDP, most interns will have been training for over 10 years to become an architect. Changes are coming to the profession, and NCARB and the vast majority of jurisdictions in the United States have decided to embrace it. I believe that Oregon should join this list and help speed the path to licensure. Please respond, with any professional credentials, to this petition by May 18th. I will be presenting these results to the Oregon Board of Architect Examiners at their May 19th Meeting in Salem.

  • Federal Jury wrongly convicts my brother without factual evidence.
    My brother Akram Muhammad a young black male was just found guilty of a crime in which he is clearly innocent of. The charge against him was not backed by any factual evidence. Akram's DNA or finger prints were not found on this hand gun. He was getting a ride home by a person in which he did not know was a felon and being pursued by ATF agents. My brother was getting into the backseat of this person's vehicle to be brought home after job searching at a relative's home. The moment at which my brother was entering the backseat of the vehicle the car was surrounded by a multiple police agencies to arrest the other individuals not my brother. Later when my brother could not give Federal agents information on the other parties they indicted him for a weapons charge, which was the same indictment of the two other parties. The agents found a weapon in the vehicle but this weapon did not have my brother's finger prints or DNA on it and the ATF agent testified that my brother made a motion to his waistband consistent to having a weapon. This could not be true to not have any factual evidence to what this agent testified to. My brother could not have enough time to clean all trace evidence off of said gun without wearing gloves in which he did not have on and while placing his hands up for ATF agent to arrest him. There was a lot of inconsistencies to the testimony of the agent and his initial report 6 months before my brother's trial. Please help my family get justice for my brother. He deserves a chance at freedom and to finish a life he was just starting to have. We have to take a stand against racial injustice and charging innocent people with crimes!

  • Support Health4All in Contra Costa County!
    According to the UC Berkeley Labor Center, between 80,000 and 98,000 Contra Costa County residents are estimated to remain uninsured this year. People without health care coverage generally wait to seek care until they are seriously ill. In many cases, health problems that could have been avoided with preventative care or treated early for little cost become significant and costly health issues. The impacts of this include increased demand on emergency services and increased costs to our healthcare system. Let’s build a healthier, stronger, and more prosperous Contra Costa County by ensuring access to healthcare for all.
