ID CARD RULESSeparating kids walking into school, being put in a separate classroom, feeling embarrassed, missing valuable class time, maybe feeling embarrassed not having $5 to buy a new card, is excessive. There have been kids suspended from school for not having their ID cards. How is this more important than being in school. How have schools been kept “safe” in the past? ID cards are not bullet proof. They are not the answer for school safety.154 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Evers

Expand the Child Tax Credit NOW!The Child Tax Credit (CTC), a cash assistance program for working families, has been one of the most effective policies for helping families meet their most basic needs like food, housing, and child care. In 2022 alone, the CTC cut child poverty nearly in half. But since it expired, millions of children have been thrown back into poverty. Earlier this year, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed bipartisan legislation to expand the Child Tax Credit, which would help 16 million children and their families deal with rising costs and boost local economies. But it's currently stuck in the Senate, so we need to do everything we can to demand they pass it as soon as possible! A majority of voters support the Child Tax Credit because it's good for families, our communities, and the economy. The CTC has proven to keep kids fed and safe at home, help parents with everyday expenses like utilities, groceries, and rent, and assist parents in paying for child care. Sign the petition to demand that the Senate swiftly pass the Child Tax Credit expansion so families can get the urgent support that they need right now.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kelsey Herbert

LET'S MAKE MSHSL SPORTS FAIR!!!the current classification system for high school sports in our state is unfair and Should not include schools that recruit athletes. As a member of the community and a parent of a high school athlete, I have noticed a growing trend of private schools recruiting players and athletes from all over the state. This has led to an unfair advantage for these schools and puts regular public schools at a disadvantage. I strongly believe that private schools who recruit players and athletes should be in a class of their own or be required to compete at the highest class for high school sports. Currently, these schools are placed in the same class as regular public schools, which I believe is not fair. Private schools have the resources and means to recruit top players and build teams that are almost unbeatable. This puts tremendous pressure on hometown teams who do not have the same recruiting abilities. Furthermore, it is not just about the competition, but also about sportsmanship and fairness. When private schools recruit players, they are essentially building an all-star team, which goes against the true spirit of high school sports. Regular public schools, on the other hand, rely on their students who live in the community and may not have the same level of talent and skill. It is not fair for these teams to compete against each other as it can be demoralizing and discouraging for the players who have put in their hard work and dedication in their respective sports. I understand that private schools may argue that they have the right to recruit and build strong teams to compete at the highest level. However, I believe that they should be required to compete in a separate class or at the highest class, where they can compete against other schools with similar resources and recruiting abilities. This will level the playing field and make the competition more fair and enjoyable for all. I urge the Minnesota State High School League Board to take action on this matter and consider creating a separate class or requiring private schools to compete at the highest class for high school sports. As a parent and a member of the community, I believe it is our responsibility to ensure that all high school athletes have an equal opportunity to compete and showcase their skills.10,622 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Krystal Kuchenbecker

Too many lives lost! This dangerous road needs caution lights!It’s a simple solution to prevent additional lives being lost at the sharp curve in the road. I lost my fiancé Sunday at this location. No one should have to hold a loved one as they take their last breath at this intersection ever again! This memory will forever replay in my mind! Something has to be done so that more families do not have to grieve the loss of a loved one and forever have their lives changed ever again! This is a small change that can make such a huge impact on the future lives of others.137 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Terri Walker
