Please Vote 'No' on HR 143 and Support Gov. Wolf's Death Penalty MoratoriumThe governor's decision to pause executions is the right decision for our state. In 2011, the Pennsylvania Senate passed Senate Resolution No. 6, “Directing the Joint State Government Commission to establish a bipartisan task force and an advisory committee to conduct a study of capital punishment in this Commonwealth and to report their findings and recommendations.” The results of the study will be presented to the legislature and the governor. It is only right to pause executions while awaiting this report. In a series of articles published in December 2014, the Reading Eagle found that Pennsylvania taxpayers have spent over $350 million on the death penalty over a period in which the state has carried out just three executions. All three executions involved inmates who had dropped their appeals. Our system is clearly costly and broken, the governor is right to take a closer look.

Congress: Stop the Raid on Student AidLast week, Republicans unveiled budgets in the House and Senate that are devastating to American families. The cuts to student aid programs are especially vicious, with a proposed $150 billion in cuts to the Pell Grant, subsidized loan program, Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and income-based repayment. This is easily the biggest attack on student aid in the 21st century. The US Student Association believes that public higher education should be free! And this budget is clearly headed in the opposite direction. We need individual members of Congressional leadership to reject the drastic cuts to student aid included in this year's budget. Sign here to send an email to Senate Majority Leader McConnell, Minority Leader Reid, House Speaker Boehner, and Minority Leader Pelosi.13,933 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Maxwell Love

Stop Shell from drilling for oil in the Arctic!Right now, Shell is trying to get approval from the US government to start Arctic drilling off the remote coast of Alaska this summer. But President Obama has the power to stop the drills - and Shell. With his recent Keystone XL pipeline veto, it’s clear Obama wants to use his last term in office to leave behind a strong climate legacy. Tell Obama to make the Alaskan Arctic off limits to oil drilling now!7,545 of 8,000 SignaturesCreated by Sarah Rasmussen

All for the want of a train track nailWe need to take care of our infrastructure so that human beings can get to their jobs, spend time with their families, travel without risk. I do not understand why legislative bodies cannot grapple with this basic fact. I commute from New Jersey into Manhattan for work and for fun. I know Mr. Christie couldn't give a darn about me and my liberal ways, but every single lateness on my train is caused by Amtrak switches being broken, bridges not closing right, wires subject to high winds. These things cost NJ millions in worker revenues. Why cannot the transit, whether it be roads, bridges, dams, tracks, whatever, why can't that be funded adequately to keep people safe? Even if Amtrak is a losing Congressional proposition, surely we in NJ, who have so much Amtrak rail, could chip in to bring it into the 21st century to save NJ lives? And worker headaches? Surely?1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elizabeth McMahon
