Support Senate 1837, move-to-zero Personal Rapid Transit billOur goal is great transportation for Massachusetts that moves to 1) zero time waiting for transit, waiting in traffic or looking for a parking space, 2) zero subsidy by tax dollars (saves everybody money), 3) zero accidents and deaths, and 4) zero carbon emissions. We seek transit that’s fast, fun, safe, and affordable for all. We aim to cut emissions both from transportation and also from fossil fuel power plants by making solar and energy storage affordable for homes and other buildings. Thank you for joining us in envisioning renewable-powered Personal Rapid Transit providing great transportation—in all weather—that leads to healthy pedestrian-and-bicyclist-friendly communities, a thriving economy, and stable sustaining climate, water and food supply, and sea level for Massachusetts and the world.

Oregon: Adopt NCARB IDP StreamlineIn 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.68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Josiah Ball

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!115 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Kia Mclearen

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.343 of 400 SignaturesCreated by David Sharples
