• Say yes to a solar energy victory in Rhode Island
    Expanding solar in Rhode Island will bring widespread benefits for our health, our economy, and the environment. State lawmakers are moving forward to quintuple Rhode Island's cornerstone renewable energy program with a bill sponsored by State Rep. Ruggiero (Jamestown) and State Sen. Sosnowski (S. Kingstown). But in the busiest time of year at the State House, we need to make sure this doesn’t fall by the wayside. Take action to send a message to your senator, your representative, and the governor.

  • Repeal the ban on groups at Red Rocks Amphitheater
    Recently Denver Arts and Venues enacted a ban on exercise groups greater than 10 people at Red Rocks. They had no written complaints to base this ban on and they are still allowing other large groups, so they are simply discriminating against exercise groups...even completely free ones. Please help tell the City of Denver that what they are doing is unethical, bad policy and discriminatory.

  • Shame MIT for naming their new research building after the Kochs.
    I am deeply offended that MIT would glorify such destructive, sociopathic brothers as the Kochs. How can an institution that works to better the environment promote two men who are largely climate change deniers and responsible for environmental destruction.

  • Help Hold Nefarious Anonymous Companies Accountable for Financial Crime & Corruption!
    Anonymous Delaware companies have been used to facilitate drug smuggling, arms trafficking, and anonymous campaign contributions; force foreclosures on ordinary Americans; and launder the proceeds of overseas corruption. As a corporate leader, we need to ensure our state is not being used by criminals for illicit purposes. The Incorporation Transparency and Law Enforcement Act will require states to collect beneficial ownership information from companies (the real person profiting from the company), which will allow law enforcement to track illicit funds and activities more efficiently and effectively. The bill exempts publicly listed companies and would apply to all U.S. states, so does not create any competitive disadvantages for Delaware.

  • Pause PARCC (Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Career) in Cambridge
    Cambridge has not had the chance to thoroughly discuss the new online high-stakes test called PARCC (Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Career) as a replacement for MCAS (Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System) and what it will mean for our kids, teachers, and K-12 schools.

  • Help Stop Unfair Deportation of Hardworking Father and Husband
    The unfair deportation of this man will break up a wonderful family, take him away from his children and wife and create extreme hardship for them. He poses no threat to society and is a stable, hard-working individual.

  • The Struggle Against Hunger and Homelessness
    This petition is to stop the illegality of feeding the homeless. Recently, in Daytona Beach, FL, a couple who were hosting a private charity, and have hosted it for years, to feed the homeless were arrested, cited and fined. This is what the Chief of Police, Mike Chitwood, had to say, and I quote, "if you want to do the Christian thing and feed them, then join social services". Well Mr. Chitwood, no disrespect to your "wise" advice, but Christianity digs way too deep for that. Even if you aren't religious, take into consideration that there are not only adults who are homeless but children as well. It's a shame to see this kind of thing being put into play, but together we can stop this. Maybe it's just me being who I am, but I believe everyone deserves the right to eat and be able to go to sleep on a full stomach. Let's not ignore other countries of course, but let's start by getting our country fed.

  • Mayor Spodofora: Honor CPL. KAREEM R KHAN with a Street!
    When the tragedy of losing a soldier in war afflicts a community, usually the township allows the soldier to live on not in just spirit, but with a physical sign. There has been no progress made in honoring Kareem, a Purple Heart award winning soldier lost in Iraq to an IED, with a dedicated street in his hometown. We are not asking for the official name of a road to be renamed on the postal service and on maps, just a dedication as most communities in America honor their locally raised heroes.

  • Disclosure really matters
    We won! After 40,000 people signed petitions, Governor Brown signed SB 27, the historic bill to make Dark Money non-profits reveal their secret funders. It’s a major victory, but we must also make sure voters actually see who's behind political ads. We must pass the California DISCLOSE Act, SB 52. Our SB 27 triumph shows that when tens of thousands of you apply pressure we can win! Sign the petition thanking Governor Brown for signing SB 27, and asking him to lead on passing SB 52.

  • Tell Mayors of the Triad, Nancy Vaughan, Bernita Sims and Allen Joines to put an end to Ringling ...
    Knowing the horrible truth, we must do the right thing. Ringling Bros. Circus has been coming to Greensboro for about 50 years. This has to come to a halt because wild animals are NOT on the earth for human entertainment! Greensboro is a more compassionate people than to allow this to continue to happen.
