While the president’s son-in-law serves as one of the Trump administration’s lead negotiators in the Middle East, Jared Kushner is simultaneously raising money for his private equity firm — from some of the very same governments he’s negotiating with. It’s part of a disturbing pattern we’ve seen before. His alarming number of conflicts of interest and the potential for self-dealing raise a host of troubling questions around his ability to act with integrity: • Are Kushner's private equity firm's financial interests influencing U.S. Middle East negotiations? • Were the billions that his firm received from the Saudi government, for example, kickbacks on past actions or down payments on future favors? • Do Kushner’s Gaza beachfront property plans influence his role on the White House-appointed Gaza Executive Board? Fortunately, we’re not the only ones asking questions. Members of Congress have launched investigations in both the House and Senate. Now, with enough public pressure, we’ll push Congress to shine a light on Kushner’s conflicts of interest and pursue accountability.

Data centers are being dumped on rural towns and working-class communities because big tech companies think they can bully us with their big money and corporate lobbyists. And now the Trump Administration wants to let these companies start building before they even have an air pollution permit.  We demand that the EPA withdraw its proposed giveaway to Big Tech data center developers and stop letting Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta build massive industrial facilities in our communities before they secure the air permits the law requires.  Data centers are 24/7 industrial sites that burn through staggering amounts of electricity, drink down millions of gallons of water, run diesel backup generators that foul the air, and hum loud enough to keep families awake at night. Please join with us in demanding that the Trump Administration stop sacrificing working-class communities and rural America for Silicon Valley's big data server farms. 

This case matters beyond one family because every parent, sibling, and child deserves protection from unlawful or unclear intervention, false public narratives, and potential misuse of authority. When children are removed, families separated, or serious criminal allegations are made, the public must be able to trust that every action was lawful, transparent, and accountable. If due process is ignored, if families are denied clarity, or if public narratives destroy reputations before facts are confirmed, it sets a dangerous precedent for every family. This petition stands for: • Child safety  • Family rights  • Due process  • Government accountability  • Protection from false criminalization  • Protection from reputational harm caused by incomplete or misleading public narratives Truth matters.  Transparency matters.  Families matter.  Justice must be rooted in facts, not confusion.

You do not get to kill someone and get away with it. While Renee’s family and community are forced to deal with the fallout and live with the trauma, Jonathan Ross continues to live his life and keep collecting a government paycheck funding by the taxpayers. Allowing him to continue working for ICE sends a message that immigration agents can act recklessly and with impunity and get away with it. This message puts all of us and our communities in grave danger.  We must send the message that you don’t get to harm our communities and face zero consequences. Jonathan Ross must be held accountable and removed from duty now. 

Today, a billionaire could be buying a $100 million private jet. But you’re paying for it too. Thanks to a tax rule called bonus depreciation, that billionaire could get $40 million back, immediately, as tax savings. A “bonus” indeed, paid for by working people like you and me. This is a giveaway, subsidizing the richest Americans for one of their most antisocial behaviors, and making working Americans pick up the tab. It’s a waste of public money while so many are struggling with affordability, and it’s an insult to the rest of us. We must close this loophole, and that's what HR 8644, the Stop Subsidizing Private Jets Act would do. It was just introduced by three House Democrats: Eugene Vindman (VA), Kristen McDonald Rivet (MI), and Greg Landsman (OH). Add your name to show your support for this long-overdue change.

Transgender people already experience homelessness at staggering rates. Forcing shelters to ignore someone’s gender identity only makes these environments more dangerous. It exposes transgender women to possible harassment, violence, and assault, and it humiliates and endangers people who are already in crisis. Nobody should have their gender or sexuality interrogated when trying to access basic safety and shelter. When our government begins to surveil our bodies, it is a dangerous and terrifying escalation of authoritarianism and control.  This rule isn’t about shelter safety—it’s about exclusion. The Trump administration has made its transphobic agenda plain, and it’s now targeting people in their most vulnerable moments, using the federal government to shut transgender people out of the last safety net available to them. Advocates say that if made official, the new rule will prevent scores of unhoused transgender people from accessing safe emergency sleeping arrangements.  Sign the petition to demand HUD withdraw its cruel and discriminatory shelter rule and protect the safety of unhoused trans Americans >>

Three workers died at Amazon facilities in New Jersey in 2022. Another in Colorado Springs that same year. Sadly, the list goes on. There's no excuse for this to happen at Amazon. Analysis based on a 2024 federal report from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), showed that Amazon's fulfillment centers report injuries more than two times as much as the warehouse industry average. Amazon workers accounted for 39% of all warehouse workers in the United States but Amazon reported 56% of all serious injuries in the industry.   A Senate report at the end of 2024 revealed that these issues could be even worse than that. The report said, Amazon “manipulates its workplace injury data to portray its warehouses as safer than they actually are.” The PDX9 warehouse in Oregon where the worker died in early April has a reputation for harsh conditions. 26% of employees at the fulfillment center suffered from injuries, according to investigative reports. Amazon has no excuse for the rate of injuries, the unsafe working conditions, and outright neglect.  Sign this petition urging Amazon CEO Andy Jassy to take immediate action to improve safety standards in Amazon warehouses and improve working conditions for all Amazon workers.

Mere hours after the U.S. and Iranian governments were reportedly nearing an agreement to end the war, Trump threatened to resume bombing “at a much higher level and intensity than it was before.” This is Trump’s cycle: One minute, a promise of diplomacy. The next, more threats of violence. What’s been consistent? This administration's failure to act in the people’s best interest. While Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth scrambles to respond to violence in the Strait of Hormuz, Trump is again lashing out at the Pope, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio is suggesting we should be grateful that gas prices aren’t even higher. It remains clear that Trump, Hegseth, and Rubio shouldn’t be trusted with deciding what comes next. Congress must step in. Fortunately, cracks are breaking in the Republican caucus that could help push them to join with Democrats. Senator Collins (R-ME) has flipped her vote and is now a “yes” on a war powers resolution to end the war. Senator Curtis (R-UT) is on record as refusing funds. We need to press just a few more to get us the votes necessary to stop and defund this war — making this the moment we need to go all in and ensure our demands are impossible to ignore.

Right now, the three largest consumer credit agencies—Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian—are still choosing to allow medical debt to appear on credit reports, despite no law requiring them to do so. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has found that medical debt is the most common type of debt in collections. Yet it is one of the weakest predictors of whether someone will be able to repay it, because you don't choose an emergency. Fortunately, Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion have caved to public pressure before. And with millions of families struggling, Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion have the power to provide real, immediate relief by stopping something they were never required to do in the first place. Add your name to demand that Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion grant relief to families and permanently remove medical debit from consumers' credit reports.

When Trump says it’s “not possible” for the federal government to fund Medicare, Medicaid, and child care, what he’s telling us is: There’s plenty of money to go around, just not for you. Now, a proposed $1.5 TRILLION Pentagon budget request presents a choice as clear as day — and it’s one Congress, not Trump, gets to decide. That means we, as their constituents, have a powerful say in what happens next. So you choose: Do you want our government to spend hundreds of billions more of our taxpayer dollars on bombs and bullets to sow violence across the world, OR put those funds toward expanding healthcare access, combating climate change, ending homelessness, and funding more priorities that we know will actually keep people safe? We say: Not another dime for war and bloodshed, for Pentagon waste and weapons contractor payouts. If you’re with us, the time to act is right now. As weapons lobbyists race to the Capitol to build support for this outrageous budget, we need to get louder than the war hawks by sending lawmakers an urgent, unmistakable message that $1.5 trillion is a nonstarter.

Donald Trump Jr. is a dangerous peddler of election conspiracy theories who encouraged those closest to his father to work to overturn the 2020 election results. He’s also a war profiteer who is helping his father use the influence of the White House to enrich the family.  We can’t allow history to repeat itself. Putting Don Jr. at the head of an "Apprentice" reboot will only serve to sanitize his image and could possibly lay the groundwork for a future in politics.  Amazon is already enriching the Trump family. Amazon co-owns the rights to "The Apprentice" alongside Trump’s production company, and, through reruns on Amazon’s streaming services and airings in syndication, the show still nets the Trump family anywhere between $100,000 to $1,000,000 in royalties as of 2024. In addition to donating $1million to Trump’s inauguration fund, Amazon also spent $75 million acquiring and promoting the documentary film "Melania," about first lady Melania Trump. It netted the first lady more than $28 million.  We can’t let Amazon rehab the Trump family image so they can continue their scams. Sign the petition to demand Amazon drop all plans to reboot "The Apprentice" with Donald Trump Jr.
