USDA: Extend Marketing Regulations on School Grounds to After-School HoursThe USDA's new proposed guidelines to the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (Section 204) provide a CRUCIAL opportunity to protect children from being preyed upon in their schools by the food industry. Food marketing in schools has been linked to the rise of childhood obesity, and the current proposed USDA guidelines, while an important first step, only address regulating marketing on school grounds during school hours. If we do not act now, food companies will continue to undermine parents and school administrators in their efforts to provide a healthy environment for children to learn. Sign this petition by April 28th, and tell the USDA you demand that regulations on marketing extend to after-school hours.69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Campaign for Ad-Free Schools

Save My Organic Farm from extreme fossil fuel extraction which poisons the air, land, and water!Create awareness surrounding the effects this extreme fossil fuel extraction is having on agricultural land. Quality food can not be produced when VOC's like benzene, toluene, known carcinogens, neurotoxins, the very agents used to kill soldiers on the battle field and endocrine disruptors are vented off into the atmosphere and deposited on the nearby soil. Radioactive agents have been found in frack waste. Irradiating food for human consumption is ludicrous!Now lets talk about the water...86 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Maggie Henry

Addressing Dyslexia in Alabama Public SchoolsWe urge our Department of Education and our local policy-makers to address the following topics: 1. Establishing a universal definition and understanding of the term "dyslexia" within our state education code. 2. Mandating early screening and identification of at-risk students. 3. Mandating Alabama teacher certification and ongoing professional development to include training on dyslexia and appropriate intervention strategies. 4. Mandating the use of appropriate research based reading interventions for at-risk students in both general and special education programs. 5. Providing for access to assistive technology for all at-risk students in both general and special education programs. We call on Alabama policy-makers to support students with dyslexia. It is time for Alabama Public Schools to catch up with the science on reading and dyslexia.

Save CSUSB Women's Water PoloCal State San Bernardino is planning on cutting the women's water polo program after this year. The young women on the team deserve to continue to play. The school doesn't currently have a track so replacing the water polo program with track and field will cost millions of dollars and increase tuition for everyone. They already have everything they need to continue playing water polo. Save the women's water polo team.3,168 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Darrel Morris

We're Halfway There. Tell Delaware's Senate to Expand Voting RightsAmerica's elections are broken. Not only do people with the most money fund our system, but also the election process itself systematically raises barriers to participation. People of color, young people, and college students are less likely to be registered and therefore less likely to vote. That’s true here in Delaware just as it is in Georgia, Ohio, and North Carolina where burdensome ideological-driven restrictions are being implemented to prevent more people from voting. And the result is that our democratic system is more accountable to people with money than it is to the rest of us. However, we are fighting back and we are winning. Since last year, I’ve been working with a diverse and powerful coalition of community organizations, faith leaders, civil rights organizations, labor, and advocates in pushing for House Bill 105, Same Day Voter Registration (SDR) in Delaware. Same Day Registration allows individuals to register to vote and cast their ballot on the same day. Same Day Registration is one the most effective ways to increase participation in our democracy. Our coalition has organized community leaders and raised our voice in support of Same Day Registration. And we passed the first hurdle, getting the bill to pass the Delaware House. This was no easy task, despite the obvious democratic benefits that Same Day Registration could bring to Delaware, a few self-interested politicians were pushing to block Same Day Voter Registration. Now, that we've won in the House we're hearing many of the conservative talking points — that voting is a privilege that should be restricted to the few — rather than a right that we should be fighting to protect. I believe strongly in the right to vote and that is why I'm continuing the fight with my coalition partners to expand voting rights and strengthen our democracy in Delaware.392 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Apryl Walker

Esmeralda & her kids shouldn't be torn away from their home!Why are immigration officials in the Obama Administration targeting a mother of three U.S. citizens for deportation? If ICE officials go through with Esmeralda's deportation, her entire family will be devastated. Her two oldest children have received numerous awards for good grades and behavior, but they'll be forced to leave their school and home! Even their principal thinks ICE is making a terrible mistake -- the girls should be able to finish school just like any other child. Esmeralda has lived in the US for 14 years. She has no criminal record and pays her taxes. She'd likely qualify for the path to citizenship in the Senate immigration bill, but House Republicans refuse to bring it to a vote. The Obama Administration shouldn't punish Esmeralda and her girls just because Congress won't do its job. Esmeralda has no other family in the US, and she's terrified of taking her daughters back to her native Michoacan, where violent drug cartels are a part of daily life. We can help Esmeralda and her children by asking the Obama Administration to grant her a "stay of removal" so they can stay home where they belong. The petitions you've signed in the past have stopped several deportations -- we know we can help Esmeralda and her family, too! Esmeralda's children shouldn't be torn from their country, and Esmeralda from the only place she calls home. We need to help keep this family here!854 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Gabe Ortiz
