The CEO of Goya stands has made a point to side with the most racist and divisive administration, implying that their customer base is not important.

Far better not to have any debate rather than one in which a candidate is forced to spend his allocated time countering baseless facts and outright lies instead of outlining and explaining his policies.

Decisions are made by these officials and laws and policies are put in place which affect the lives and well-being of the people that the officials represent. The people need to know to what extent the officials benefit from new legislation and policy decisions. Corruption only has a chance to be eliminated or greatly reduced with full disclosure by those seeking to be in power.

In light of anti-blackness in this country and how other marginalized groups are currently oppressed, we cannot afford to stay silent on this matter.

The quest for justice is something that should be of utmost concern to all of us.

New York State's current Wrongful Death Statute is contrary to public policy. We do not have equal protection under the current law. This bill has been in Albany since 1994. The New York State government has been Derelict in it's Duty to deter negligent, reckless, sometimes criminal behavior that leads to needless deaths. This bill would acknowledge that the families of wrongful death victims experience emotional anguish.

The regulation change announced by ICE on July 6 is unnecessary, unfair, and dangerous for the students affected by it. It bars students from re-entering the US, or threatens with deportation those who already are here, if they are attending a university that is only offering online courses due to COVID-19. This restriction has multiple unacceptable aspects: 1. It is unnecessary. ICE's role is to protect the United States against people who wish to enter illegally or with malicious intent. Students with a valid student visa do NOT meet this definition. 2. It is impractical. As the impact of coronavirus changes rapidly in various states and counties, universities are likely to rapidly change their teaching mode, starting or stopping in-person teaching from time to time. The regulation would force students to stay away when the courses are all online, allow them to come back when the courses are in-person or hybrid, send them away again if there is a reversal, etc. 3. It is costly. Many of the affected foreign students do not have the financial means to pay for extra airplane tickets home during the times when the regulation would ban them from the U.S. 4. It is dangerous. Putting those students on long international flights during the pandemic is dangerous to their health. It could arguably cause the death of several of them. 5. It is unfair. Some of these students would be back home in hostile conditions, or in a place where Internet is non-existent or of poor quality, or in family lodgings that are inconvenient for distance learning. Therefore they would not be in a position to continue their studies. The U.S. has granted these students visas to study in this country. This contributes to the reputation of this country as the world leader in higher education and research. The regulation changed announced by ICE on July 6 defeats this purpose. It is onerous, unfair, impractical, and unnecessary. It couldn't be better written if the motivation was actually xenophobia rather than the purported goal of protecting the U.S., which it does not achieve. This regulation change must be rescinded.

Getting relief to the families left in the dust, and getting aid to them IMMEDIATELY. Not excuses or you’ll get a tax credit. Time is up we have waited LONG ENOUGH. It’s time to stand up and fight back for our rights too!!!!!!

This effort violates the rights of over 100,000 felons who have served their sentence and have earned the right to voter restoration. It also disenfranchises over 5 million Florida voters who voted YES on restoration of these rights!! After multiple delays by DeSantis, in October 2019, U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle ruled that the state CANNOT deny the right to vote to someone who is "genuinely unable to pay". He cemented his ruling in May 2020 and laid out a process for the state to use in determining felons' voting eligibility, rejecting an attempt by DeSantis to put the ruling on hold. Instead DeSantis made a rare request for an appeal review by the full court. Plantiffs requesting dismissal of this lawsuit include the ACLU, the Campaign Legal Center, and the Southern Poverty Law Center, all who had requested the 11th Circuit turn down DeSantis' request for the full court, stating that the case should be expedited so potential voters could participate in Florida's August 18 primary and November 3 presidential election. Governor DeSantis' actions are a thinly veiled attempt to block these voters and completely overturn the votes of over 5 million Florida voters. I am a white female, native born Floridian, a lifelong voter, and a retired police officer, and I am mad as hell that MY vote for Amendment 4 is not being counted! Imagine how the thousands of former non-violent felons feel, some of who served their sentences decades ago, and who are a diverse population of men & women of every color feel?

Statues of mass murderers, Confederate traitors, slave owners, and white supremacists have marred our land for far too long. Thankfully, the time has finally come to remove these material celebrations of racist oppression, and patriots throughout the land have wisely and courageously taken the initiative to do so. However, one official has foolishly called for these rejected statues to find a new home in the small town of America he manages. This effort to create a mecca for racism must be stopped. We the people, Newton Falls residents and/or US citizens, firmly reject the illegal and ill-advised proclamation by a local unelected official to unilaterally declare our town a depository for statues of mass murderers, Confederate traitors, slave owners, and white supremacists. No celebration of systemic racism, genocide, or white supremacy has any place in America The Beautiful. We resolutely reject the proposed denigration of our fair town into a mecca for racists and their ilk, and declare this shameful proclamation null and void. We shall overcome.

We need to prevent President Trump from aligning our country with Russia which has some kind of plan for America. Trump is Putin's stooge as Russia helped get him elected in 2016. Also, it has been reported that Trump doesn't want to hear anyone say negative things about Putin: Trump would throw a fit. We can't risk anymore degradation of our country in favor of Russia and the Taliban.

Hi! I'm Madeline i recently wrote an appeal to get the lgbtq+ panic defense banned What's the lgbtq+ panic defense? “The LGBTQ+ panic defense strategy (also called the ‘gay panic defense’ or ‘trans panic defense’) is a legal strategy that asks a jury to find that a victim’s sexual orientation or gender identity/expression is to blame for a defendant’s violent reaction, including murder. It is not a free-standing defense to criminal liability, but rather a legal tactic used to bolster other defenses. When a perpetrator uses an LGBTQ+ panic defense, they are claiming that a victim’s sexual orientation or gender identity not only explains — but excuses — a loss of self-control and the subsequent assault. By fully or partially acquitting the perpetrators of crimes against LGBTQ+ victims, this defense implies that LGBTQ+ lives are worth less than others.”So i assume you're pretty horrified something like this exists, well you can do something abt it. You could sign my petition!
