• Rename Negro Bill Canyon to William Grandstaff Canyon
    In this time of expansion and growth of Moab’s trail system, especially along the scenic highway 128, we must reexamine the name “Negro Bill Canyon” and rename this popular hiking trail and campsite. By renaming Negro Bill Canyon as Grandstaff Canyon (and correcting the spelling of the nearby Granstaff Campground), we still acknowledge its history, while respecting the man: William J. Grandstaff.

  • Rep. Peters, help overturn Citizens United
    The Supreme Court ruling in the Citizens United decision has been an unmitigated disaster for the American people. It is imperative that the Constitution be amended so that it clearly states that corporations are not people and should not have the same rights as people.

  • Free Sharon E. Duttle / End the Corruption in New Mexico
    I have known this woman and her sons for 35 years and this conviction is insane! She has loved and cared for animals’ everyday of her life. She has been terrorized for five years and because she spoke up, she is now facing 25 years in prison for something she is innocent of doing.

  • Guitar Center and Bain Capital: Let Workers Unite for a Fair Workplace
    We work at Guitar Center and we are organizing across the country to improve wages and working conditions for all Guitar Center employees. We love our jobs and our passion is helping our customers achieve their musical dreams. But we often have trouble making ends meet, thanks to low wages and fluctuating hours. We are asked to do many non-selling tasks which hurt our commissions. Sales workers do not receive sick days, health benefits are expensive and part timers are not even offered health benefits. It’s been an exciting year for the Guitar Center campaign: workers in New York, Chicago and Las Vegas have successfully organized a union at their workplaces, over 100 bands and artists have endorse the campaign, and tens of thousands of people have signed petitions supporting us. However, the company has responded by refusing to give us a fair contract and has launched an aggressive campaign to bust the union. The company’s last offer is worse than non-union stores. It is meant to punish us for standing up for ourselves. Our union has been forced to file charges detailing the company’s bad faith negotiating and union busting. We now say: Enough is Enough. We are asking the public to support us as we enter the final stages of negotiations! Sign the petition below to help us get a fair contract and a support our union.

  • Tell Rep. Issa to support immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship
    In America we believe that everyone is equal, period. But that's not how our current immigration system works. Under our current immigration laws, immigrants currently living in the US without papers have no way to fix their immigration status and pursue the rights obtained through citizenship. These immigrants -- many of whom are American in every way but on paper -- are doomed to a life in shadows. They are prevented from doing things many US citizens take for granted, like driving, working, applying for credit cards, and even from visiting sick family members overseas. The Senate just passed an immigration bill that will would fix this tragedy by creating a pathway to citizenship for these 11 million Americans without papers. Through this pathway, students, workers, family members, and even some immigrants with deportation orders under the previous broken system would finally be allowed to pursue their American dream and eventual citizenship. Advocates have been fighting for these reforms for years, and we have never seen a better chance for making these dreams a reality. But some anti-immigrant members of Congress -- lead by legislators like Rep. Steve King -- are trying to kill reform by destroying the path to citizenship and promoting inhumane policies that would keep these 11 million people in the shadows so they "self-deport." Our movement has reached a tipping point and we need your help to finish the job. We need you to tell Rep. Darrell Issa to support immigration reform with the pathway to citizenship, now more than ever. It's time for Congress to pass this bill. Please tell your representative to vote YES on immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million Americans without papers.

  • Call on Senators Bennet and Udall to support labeling of genetically engineered food
    Now more than ever, the United States needs a policy for genetically engineered food labeling: there are genetically engineered foods in up to 70 percent of the foods on grocery store shelves, the USDA is considering approving a genetically engineered apple this spring, and the FDA is nearing its approval of a genetically engineered salmon. The labeling of genetically engineered foods should be mandatory. The public has the right to make an informed choice about the food they buy for their families. Without mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods, consumers are left in the dark. Senator Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) has sponsored new federal labeling legislation, the Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act (S. 809), in the Senate. Take action and tell Senators Bennet (D-CO) and Udall (D-CO) to support the genetically engineered food labeling bill.
