• Trump must testify and fully comply with the Jan 6 Committee's subpoena
    Donald Trump just SUED the January 6th House Committee, his latest attempt to dodge testimony and hide the truth about his role in the deadly attack on our Capitol. Since the onset of this crucial investigation, Trump has done nothing but try to obstruct and discredit the Committee. He has clearly put himself high above the law – and thinks he shouldn’t be held accountable for his criminal efforts to overturn the 2020 election. If he is as innocent as he says he is, testifying shouldn’t pose any problem – Trump should welcome the opportunity to exonerate himself. But all he’s done since being subpoenaed is double down on his 2020 election lies and conspiracies – and his refusal to face the Committee speaks volumes. Seven former Presidents have testified before Congress, so there is clear precedent for Trump to testify. Congress must show Trump once and for all that ignoring this subpoena is not an option. We the People deserve nothing less. Add your name if you agree: Donald Trump is not above the law – and the House must vote to hold him accountable if he doesn’t fully comply.

  • Keep Donald Trump off Twitter and Facebook
    Facebook and Twitter both made the decision to remove Donald Trump after the deadly January 6 insurrection. He had propagated lies about the election results, sought to overturn the outcome and seize power, and stirred up the violent attack on the Capitol—which he then defended. This followed years of him spreading vile, bigoted hate speech and dangerous disinformation. His years of harm were given wide latitude by the social media platforms as an elected official. But after January 6, they said enough was enough. In the intervening years, Trump has continued to lie about the election results, share propaganda from white supremacists, and pedal QAnon conspiracy theories. And as the January 6 committee has made clear, his actions were part of an intentional, willful effort to hold power and overturn the rightful election of President Biden. Now, Trump is in the news again, preparing for another presidential run. Facebook will face pressure to reinstate him as a public figure. And Twitter—under the ownership of the narcissist Elon Musk who has used the platform to attack Democrats and spread conspiracies himself—could give Trump back his megaphone any day. It's imperative there are consequences for illegal and violence-inciting behavior, and for public figures to be held accountable for spreading conspiracy theories and disinformation online. Facebook and Twitter owe it to their own uses, their advertisers, and the public to keep Donald Trump off their platforms.

  • Social media platforms MUST combat election disinformation and other harmful content on their sites
    Social media platforms are woefully unprepared to stop election deniers and disinformation. Elon Musk’s Twitter is the perfect example – one of his first moves upon taking control was to fire the content moderation chief, signaling a free pass for anyone who wants to spread election disinformation, transphobia, homophobia, racism, and more. We’ve even learned that Twitter has stopped enforcement around the ‘Big Lie’ – even though rampant election denialism on sites like Twitter fed the violence that culminated in the January 6th attack on our democracy. It doesn’t end with Twitter. Our Social Media Monitoring team spent Election Day tracking blatant, evidence-free attempts to convince people their votes don’t count or that we can’t trust election officials – and raises them to social media platform officials to delete. But this year, the response we received was haphazard to say the least. Companies like Meta, Twitter, and TikTok failed to learn from the 2020 elections. We, along with 120 other groups, called on them months ago to make specific policy changes to prevent this, but they didn’t, allowing harmful content to continue to spread – to say nothing of right-wing sites like Gab and Parler that are designed to spread disinformation. Tell social media platforms: we need them to stand up against election disinformation, hate speech, harassment, and other harmful content.

  • Abortion Pills on NYU Campus
    Considering the recent overturn of Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court case that guaranteed individuals the right to a safe abortion and bodily autonomy in this nation, students of NYU recognize the urgent need to expand access to abortion and provide students at our university with a range of reproductive healthcare options at the Student Health Center. It is crucial that every student has equitable access to healthcare that affirms their choices and identities, further empowering their agency as young people.

  • Oklahoma County Jail
    The only way change can happen is if the whole community comes together and demands better treatment and care for the inmates being incarcerated. Everyone in life makes mistakes and must pay the consequences but families shouldn't have to worry about there loved ones dying due to being incarcerated.

  • Justice for Wyland
    My hope with this petition is that we will finally have answers and can work with the State to pass ‘Wyland’s Law’ - a law that will save the lives of other children. I want Wyland’s life to be a legacy - one that uncovers the truth and fixes the issues so that we can prevent this tragedy from happening to another family.

  • Abolish slavery in Texas
    we demand that the practice of forced labor with no compensation be abolished immediately, that inmates be compensated financially for labor like the rest of the United States. This may prevent inmates from becoming a burden on their families or communities upon release, and may prevent releasesees from reverting back to crime out of desperation from lack of financial means, reducing recidivision. .We are asking that incarcerated individuals be paid for their labor or, In the alternative, we asked, demand, that inmates be given one day off their sentences for each day of work. This would be an incentive for inmates to want to work and stay out of trouble, so they can work, decreasing prison violence. It would be a win win situation for all And the right thing to do!
