  • Unfair Deportation
    My son-in-law, who has been in this country since he was a teenager, was racially profiled, stopped, and arrested in the small town of Fincastle, Virginia where they promptly notified I.C.E. and had a detainer placed on him. Less than 3 weeks later, he was dropped in a Mexican border town without ever having appeared in front of a judge and without signing a voluntary removal document. These types of deportations are happening at a rate of 1,100 per day and must be stopped!! I.C.E. and local authorities are intentionally profiling immigrants to boost their numbers instead of spending their resources to deport terrorists and felons who are a serious threat to our nation. They are showing a blatant disregard for the President's executive order to only deport "high priority immigrants" and to use discretion when dealing with aliens with strong family and community ties to America. I.C.E. must be stopped!

    According to news reports, the two congressman were shocked by the extent to which at least one foreign state was involved in the preparation and execution of the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001. They are, however, bound by federal restrictions from divulging the name of the country which figured most prominently in those pages.

  • Ask President Obama to enforce use of Eagle deterrent devices.
    My daughter, Belle, is an animal lover and has been since a baby. She wants to be a Veterinarian but also wants to teach Humans to communicate with animals. Right now the only communication We can do with animals is for them. We discuss current events in my house and when my daughter learned Eagles were dying and our Government allows it, she cried. I had the same reaction when I heard about extinct Pandas, Tigers and Monk Seal. For them I ask President Barack Obama to require Windmill companies to use bird deterrent devices.

  • Forbid the killing of cougars where a self sustaining population is not yet present!
    I am a conservationist and educator who deeply cares about biodiversity. As the disappearance of cougars has led to a trophic cascade of disappearing native birds, invertebrates and plants (see http://www.cof.orst.edu/leopold/cougars/OpenHouseposter.pdf), I was aghast when I learned that cougars attempting to recolonize the East are being killed -- without punishment from many states' local authorities! In order to re-establish a more balanced ecosystem, keystone predators must be allowed to recolonize the eastern US.

  • Radio Disney: Stop Promoting Oil and Gas Extraction to Kids
    The nation’s largest children’s radio network, Radio Disney, has joined forces with the Ohio Oil and Gas Association to deliver a musical roadshow to kids that promotes fossil fuel extraction and fracking under the guise of teaching them “science.” (1) The show has already been delivered dozens of times at schools and county fairs across the state. Worse yet, it is being considered for expansion in 2014. As the mom of two young boys who love Disney movies and music, and also as the Director of Climate Parents, I believe that a family-focused brand like Disney has no business peddling dirty energy to our kids. At Radio Disney’s “Rocking in Ohio” roadshow, popular DJ’s lead kids in games—such as a pipeline building contest—that promote oil and gas drilling in a festive atmosphere where pop music blares and kids receive Disney-themed prizes. There is no mention of the fact that burning fossil fuels is polluting our air and water, giving our kids asthma, and creating dangerous climate impacts like superstorms and droughts that endanger our communities. It's no surprise that the fossil fuel industry would want to partner with Radio Disney, which broadcasts in more than 35 markets around the country and online and calls itself the "unrivaled broadcast radio network for kids and families." (2) Rhonda Reda, who works for the Ohio Oil and Gas Association, said of the roadshow, "It allows science to be fun. Who better to help than Radio Disney?" (3) But if Radio Disney were really interested in teaching kids about the relationship between science and energy, it would champion energy that is "kid safe and climate safe"--not carbon polluting fossil fuels that put children at risk. Parents and families are Disney's most important customers. If enough of us speak out, we can compel them to end this misguided roadshow immediately. Please sign our petition. SOURCES: 1.
