Facebook’s longstanding track record of unethical and potentially illegal behavior deserves criminal sanction. It's important for federal law enforcement to demonstrate that no one, no matter how powerful, is above the law.

Calle 24 Latino Cultural District was formed because of the displacement of 8 thousand (and counting) Latinx community members and gentrification of the neighborhood. We formed to protect and stabilize our cultural assets which include all our cultural events that generate revenue for artists, businesses, the Mission, and the city as a whole. The Mission has the highest number of cultural events in the city that use 24th St. The Covid-19 epidemic has hurt the Latinx community at much higher levels than others and this barricade will further hurt our small businesses, artist, and community during this important recovery. This is not just a physical barrier but a psychological one that has triggered the trauma of displacement. Let’s help Carnaval SF stay on its historic route, and ask the MTA to remove the barricade they placed against our events, economy, and community. Please sign this petition and share it with all your contacts, friends, and neighbors. Si Se Puede! Calle 24 Latino Cultural District ¿Por qué esta petición es importante? El Distrito Cultural Latino Calle 24 se formó como reacción al desplazamiento de 8 mil (y contando) miembros de la comunidad Latinx y la gentrificación del vecindario. Nos formamos para proteger y estabilizar nuestros activos culturales, que incluyen nuestros eventos culturales que generan ingresos para los artistas, las empresas, la Misión y la ciudad en general. La Misión tiene el mayor número de eventos culturales en la ciudad que utilizan la calle 24. La COVID-19 ha dañado a la comunidad Latinx en niveles más profundos que a otras y esta barricada dañará aún más a nuestros pequeños negocios, artistas y comunidad durante esta necesaria recuperación. Esta no es solo una barrera física sino psicológica que ha desencadenado el trauma del desplazamiento. Ayudemos al Carnaval SF a mantenerse en su ruta histórica y pidamos a la MTA que elimine la barricada que fue colocada y que atenta contra nuestros eventos, la economía y nuestra comunidad. Firme esta petición y compártala con todos sus contactos, amigos y vecinos. ¡Sí se puede! Calle 24 Distrito Cultural Latino

By changing this, students will not have to work so hard just to find a place to live while getting their degree. How are students supposed to be enrolled at Kennesaw State University full time when they have to work all of the time to have a place to stay?

Our kids deserve to play.

The Rolling Stone article points out that Lauren Boebert and/or her staff were involved in the planning conversations, according to key witnesses, of the January 6th insurrection and attack on the U.S. Capitol. The reason it is important for individuals who believe in Democracy to sign our petition to demand that GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert is that by sending a message that the citizens of our country will not stand by and let far right extremists like Lauren Boebert destroy our nation and precious Democracy.

Every year in the United States there are over 100,000 residential fires in multifamily dwellings. In July of 2019 Kaitlyn Denson and Joseph Tarin's lives were cut short in an apartment fire in Austin, TX. A fire that spread quickly with no presence of sprinklers within the apartment units. Due to a legacy clause the current law allowed for this complex among many other's to not meet the most up to date standards for fire safety resulting in the worst possible outcome. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), fire sprinklers reduce the risk of fatalities in multi family dwellings by 87% and injuries by 27%. Action Petitioned For: We the undersigned are concerned citizens who urge our leaders to act now to pass the Public Housing Fire Safety Act.

May 1st used to be just another day in the years and life of our family. May 1st is now cemented forever as a death date for our daughter, granddaughter, niece, son, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend. The events of May 1st have forever changed the course of our family’s lives, hearts, souls and existence as whole individuals. Losing such bright, creative, clever and intelligent people with so much promise and so many gifts to offer this world, at such a young age, instills daily hurt in our hearts and aches in our stomachs. Flashes of Lendon and Kalen’s face and scenes of that last day come and go in and out of our minds uncontrolled and without our permission. Witnessing the despair and emptiness within Lendon and Kalen’s parents is a constant gut wrenching reminder that many lives, as we knew them are gone. Instead of looking forward to limitless possibilities of the coming years, we now are subjected to endless anxiety, heartbreak, and grief. Help us with our campaign to receive #justiceforlendonandkalen!!

Steven Donziger is a human rights attorney who won a massive settlement for people in Ecuador who were victims of oil pollution by Chevron. In response, Chevron—with the assistance of Federalist Society judges—have sought to as Chris Hedges wrote, "come after him, weaponizing litigation to destroy him economically, professionally, and personally." Donziger's case was prosecuted by a "private prosecutor" because the government refused to take the case against him. The "prosecutors" were the law firm Seward & Kissel, a private firm with previous ties to Chevron. His only offense was an alleged misdemeanor criminal contempt that would have warranted a jury trial under normal circumstances & if the sentence exceeded six months. While Donziger awaited judgement, he has been subject to an unduly harsh two years of house arrest and potentially tens of millions in legal fees. An independent panel of human rights experts at the United Nations have argued his house arrest violates international law. Amnesty International has also called for Donziger's release. On Wednesday, October 27, Donziger surrendered himself to federal authorities to begin a six month prison sentence. We are calling for an immediate review of Donziger's case by the DOJ & for his swift release.

We need internet to work and for our kids to do their school work since most of not all schools do work on computers only.

While America’s families have struggled to make ends meet during the pandemic, America’s billionaires have seen their wealth grow by 70 percent. Together, the Billionaires Income Tax and the Corporate Profits Minimum Tax would create a fairer tax system and allow for critical programs like paid family and medical leave for the 85 million mothers in America. Low-income people of color pay more in taxes without receiving equal access to resources in their community. Meanwhile, billionaires and big corporations have not been required to pay their fair share in taxes. The Billionaires Income Tax and Corporate Profits Minimum Tax allow us to right this wrong for future generations and invest in key priorities like high quality and accessible child care and paid family and medical leave.

Unsafe situation for pets in Santa Fe, New Mexico

It's estimated that 47% of ALL U.S. homes have visible dampness and mold. People spend 90% of their time indoors, yet a lack of emphasis is put on indoor air quality and how that affects our health every day. The recent peer-reviewed medical journal “A Comprehensive Review of Mold Research Literature From 2011 – 2018” published in Internal Medicine Review concluded that 112 of 114 (98.2%) of epidemiological articles published between 2011 and 2018 supported the proposition that inhaled mold, mold fragments, toxins and various pathogenic inflammagen, or other components of the air in water-damaged buildings (WDB), cause single and multi-system illness in humans. Symptoms include chronic and daily manifestations of fatigue, pain, nonrestorative sleep, cognitive deficits, neuropathic pains, gastrointestinal issues, musculoskeletal compromise, post-exertional malaise, dermatological, ophthalmic, endocrine, and other chronic multisystem symptoms for those suffering. These studies included 273,000 subjects from over 30 countries and 5 continents! The time for adequate funding for research and awareness on this overlooked public health issue is long overdue.
