Call on Adrian Smith to resignThough President-elect Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election, Trump and several of his allies claimed that the election was fraudulent and pledged to fight when Congress met on Jan. 6 to formally count the votes of the Electoral College. The attempt to invalidate the votes of the electoral college, much less the popular vote of the People of the United States, is a threat to our very democracy. Nebraskans in particular should note, and remember, Smith’s collaboration in such immoral, indecent behavior. Both before and after the seditious riot at our nation’s Capitol building on January 6th, Smith made quite clear that he supports Trump's high crimes and misdemeanors in inciting his followers to fight and move on the Capitol. With ample time between the attack and the resumption of debate on the floor that day, Smith certainly had an opportunity to examine his conscience and choose Country over party. He did not. If there is anything sacred in American political life, the Nation's Capitol itself is surely that. The insurrection on January 6th violated that sanctity. By continuing to promote the vicious falsehoods that prompted the rioters' actions, Smith demonstrated an extreme lack of integrity. He showed no respect for American democracy or the tenets of its constitution, and his representation is an embarrassment to Nebraska and especially the 3rd District that he purports to represent. Smith essentially voted to disenfranchise millions of voters for the sole purpose of handing the election to our disgraced presidential election loser. Not liking the outcome of an election does not give anyone the right to flip the results.32 of 100 SignaturesCreated by LauraLee Woodruff

Pass the Dream ActThe Dream Act introduced in 2018 expired at the end of the 116th Congress, but the problems facing dreamers still need the attention of Congress. Dreamers still need protection and a path to citizenship in the only country they have ever known. DACA has been helpful, but Trump's attempts to shut it down showed us the danger of leaving the fate of the dreamers subject to the whim of any future president.61 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Douglas Benner

Vrbo: Provide incentives for people to not rent out their properties in DC metro areaWhite nationalists and conspiracy theorists already attempted a failed coup on our government because they believe the election was stolen from Trump. After they overwhelmed law enforcement, they went back into our communities to stay at rental properties after some hotels closed ahead of their arrival. Now they are coming back. Vrbo should provide incentives for people to not rent out their properties in the DC metro area from Jan. 16th-Jan. 21st in order to keep our communities safe. Vrbo should follow the lead of Airbnb and provide funding to help those who are struggling and not rely on individual Vrbo hosts to cancel or block out reservations. Many Vrbo hosts rely on renting their space in order to make monthly rent or obtain another source of income as a result of the unemployment or underemployment during the pandemic. Also, many local DC Vrbo guests are don't have stable housing or are unhoused. Let's hold corporations accountable in actively fighting against white supremacy. Words are empty with action!290 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Jason Miller

Sen. Cruz: Resign!On Wednesday, January 6, we witnessed an unprecedented assault on our democracy. A violent mob of white supremacists stormed the Capitol building, ransacking and vandalizing members’ offices and the very chambers of the Senate and the House. Five people, including one Capitol Police officer, died as a result. The seeds for this violent assault were planted well before January 6. Senator Ted Cruz was among the loudest voices in the Senate calling for an overturning of the will of tens of millions of voters in November’s election in states like Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Georgia. Despite dozens of failed court challenges and no evidence of fraud whatsoever, Sen. Cruz repeatedly stated that the election results from states he doesn’t even represent were irregular and that they required further investigation. He continued to peddle these blatant lies for his own political gain, even going so far as to send out a fundraising message while the siege of the Capitol was underway. Sen. Cruz has blood on his hands. This was a political game where he put his future opportunity to run for president above the people of Texas. He has lost the right to represent Texans in the U.S. Senate. He has to resign immediately.128,125 of 200,000 SignaturesCreated by Camille Martin

Justice for Andrew Junior SmyrnaIt is important for my son's case to be re-examined because the evidence shows that the police officer's life was never in any danger and he was acting upon impulse. I also believe that the District Attorney's decision to not charge this case is for political interest. There are so many unjustified police shootings that has taken place in the State of Georgia and the police officers are not being charged by the District Attorneys. There seems to be a culture within the police departments for the officers to use a specific reason of "fear for life" to justify their actions and this will free them of being held responsible for shooting and killing of our children. This type of culture needs to be examined by the United States Justice Department. In addition, there should be an independent audit of the District Attorney's office to examine the processing of evidence in police shooting cases.124 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Ingrid Smyrna

Ask the U.S. Senate to unseat Kansas Senator Roger MarshallBecause Senator Roger Marshall CONTINUED to support setting aside Americans' presidential votes; because he CONTINUED supporting the lies that Donald Trump won the election and was cheated out of our presidency; because Roger Marshall is not so profoundly stupid as to believe the lies he supports, and could profess them solely for divisive political purposes: because Roger Marshall CONTINUES to support those lies even after personally experiencing the terroristic violence of the division they cause: Roger Marshall has demonstrated he is and will CONTINUE to be an enemy of America's unity and peace. He should be removed from the U.S. Senate.38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Steven Hicks

Joe Biden: Fire FBI Director Chris Wray on Day OneOn January 6, people watched in horror as violent white supremacist extremists stormed the Capitol building and temporarily forced the electoral college certification process to a halt. As awful as the day’s events were, it is clear that they were almost much worse. Many of the insurrectionists came with weapons, handcuffs, and zip ties - ready to take hostages or worse. Members of Congress and their staff were secured from the rioters with virtually no time to spare. This violent attempt to overturn November’s election result was rightfully shocking to the general public, but participants had made no secret of their plans. The FBI either failed to monitor what white supremacists and right wing extremists were openly plotting or were aware and chose not to act -- either is an unacceptable betrayal of its mission and failure of leadership. Biden must hold those responsible accountable. He must fire FBI Director Chris Wray on day one of his administration.509 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Jeff Hauser
