Free Mahmoud Khalil and protect students exercising their First Amendment rights!Revoking Khalil’s permanent status solely for political reasons sets a dangerous and disturbing precedent, leaving activists across social movements vulnerable. Right now, Trump is targeting pro-Palestinian rights activists. But tomorrow it could be those fighting for LGBTQ+ rights, climate justice, or abortion access. Trump is testing the extent of his executive powers and his ability to intimidate and instill fear in everyday people who dare to speak out and protest. That’s why we need to speak out and stop him here and now. Trump recently threatened federal funding of more than 60 universities and colleges, using the wave of student protests that erupted last year in defense of Palestinian rights as an excuse for yet another round of brutal cuts to public services. Columbia University, where Khalil went to school, is among the the targets, with the administration cancelling $400 million in federal funding. Trump does not care about safety or ensuring our schools are welcoming spaces. He has actively been gutting the services that would do just that. Instead, this is yet another power grab—a way to divide everyday people, silence dissenters, gut our public programs, and strip away our rights. The First Amendment protects freedom of speech and freedom of assembly. For generations, students at campuses have protested and changed the course of history. Sign the petition to demand our leaders protect this fundamental right.82,308 of 100,000 Signatures

Congressman Calvert: Host a Town Hall this Recess!Recess is a time for members of Congress to return to their home states. They should be using this week to meet with their constituents, give space for their concerns, and take that back to D.C. Instead, House Republican leaders are now reportedly telling their offices to avoid holding public events when they are home for March recess. This is the opposite of the directions Democrats are receiving—with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries encouraging all members to connect directly with constituents to talk about the Republican-backed attacks on key services like Social Security and Medicaid embodied by Elon Musk's actions and the Republican budget. Congressman Calvert was elected to represent us—they should not be hiding from their constituents. Period. Earlier this month nearly 100 MoveOn members from California District 41 urged local representatives to host town halls. But we have to keep up the pressure. Add your name to the petition to demand Congressman Calvert host a town hall or public office hours during the congressional recess!514 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Colleen Duffy

Protect Ukrainians in the U.S. from Deportation – Extend Their Legal Status!1. Ukrainians Face Immediate Threat of Deportation If deported, Ukrainians would be sent back to a war zone where they face bombings, economic collapse, and human rights violations. Many have already lost their homes and loved ones, and forcing them to return would put them at grave risk. 2. America’s Humanitarian Commitments The United States has historically protected refugees fleeing war and persecution. Sending Ukrainians back contradicts our values of providing safety to those in need. The U.S. has granted Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to Ukrainians, but if it is revoked, thousands will face deportation. 3. Ukrainians Contribute to the U.S. Economy & Society Ukrainian refugees are highly educated, hardworking and contribute to the American economy. Many are working in healthcare, education, technology, and service industries. They pay taxes, start businesses, and enrich their communities. Deporting them would hurt local economies and disrupt communities. 4. Ukraine Still Needs U.S. Support The U.S. has invested billions in helping Ukraine fight for its survival. Deporting Ukrainian refugees weakens that commitment and plays into Russia’s goal of destabilizing the Ukrainian people. 5. This Sets a Dangerous Precedent for Future Refugees If Ukrainians lose protection, it sends a message that the U.S. cannot be relied upon as a safe haven for war refugees. This could weaken America’s global leadership in humanitarian aid and make it harder for future refugees to receive protection.73 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Olga Piddubna

End Gun Violence; Save LivesSchool is supposed to be a safe place for children of all ages to learn. If we allow just any random person with possibly a mental illness walk into a gun and ammo store one day and decide to buy a gun to shoot up a school, how exactly is that a safe place for children to learn? Exactly. It’s not. With more and more news of school shootings that come out each year, children become more and more terrified of going to school. School for them is no longer a place of fun and learning, but rather a place of the terrifying possibility of someone breaking in and going on a rampage.45 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Han Jisung

Better Driving, Better Living: Demand a Safety App from Insurers.Here are some reasons why you should sign my petition: 1. Safety first: Distracted driving is a major cause of accidents. An app that tracks phone usage can help reduce distractions and make roads safer for everyone. 2. Lower Insurence rates: If Insurence companies can monitor and verify safe driving behaviors, they might offer lower premiums to drivers who avoid using their phones while driving. 3. Accountability: Such an app can encourage drivers to be more responsible and accountable for their actions behind the wheel, leading to safer driving habits. 4. Community Impact: By reducing the number of accidents caused by distracted driving, the entire community benefits. Fewer accidents mean fewer injuries and fatalities.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kimmie Loucks

Protect LGBTQ+ and Immigrant Sanctuary CommunitiesIowa recently passed legislation to undo protections for trans people by removing gender identity from the state civil rights code—making it the first time a state has removed a protected class from a state law prohibiting discrimination. These changes will weaken legal safeguards against discrimination and affect the rights of transgender people at every turn—from hiring practices to health care access. Meanwhile, congressional Republicans are targeting sanctuary cities like Boston and Chicago for the civil rights protections they guarantee to immigrants, attempting to force city governments to comply with Trump's mass deportation agenda, including ICE raids in workplaces, schools, and hospitals. Make no mistake, these attacks don’t just affect targeted communities—they represent a dangerous erosion of our civil liberties and undermine the rights of ALL Americans. Sign the petition to tell elected officials that they must safeguard our civil rights from Trump’s attacks.32,133 of 35,000 Signatures

Tell Congress to Protect our Students and Our Public Schools!Public schools are the foundation of our democracy, ensuring that every child—no matter their zip code, race, or background—has the opportunity to learn and thrive. Defunding public education only benefits private interests while leaving our communities behind. We cannot let this happen. ECCA is proposed legislation that would provide $10 billion in annual taxpayer dollars to fund private and religious K-12 schools. These private schools can pick and choose who receives an education, and many don’t even have certified educators. For these reasons, statewide voucher programs are deeply unpopular. Each time vouchers have been on the ballot in states across the country, voters have rejected them in favor of their public schools. Sign this petition to demand that Congress: • Reject any effort to dismantle or defund the Department of Education. • Oppose ECCA and other voucher schemes that redirect funding for public schools to private schools. • Fully fund public education to ensure all students get the resources they need. Our children’s future depends on strong, well-funded public schools. Add your name now and tell Congress: Protect public education—stop the attacks on our schools!32,195 of 35,000 Signatures
