Fund the USPS1. Elderly people without a computer will not receive their Social Security Checks 2. Small businesses need the USPS to continue to function properly 3. Many people are without access to or knowledge of a computer and would be incapable of paying either their bills or taxes without the Post Office Trump has refused to sign the funding in the last bill because as he said, "If there's voting by mail, NO Republican (meaning himself) would ever get elected." That's no reason to destroy the PO.203 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Linda Lehman

Increase protection for families suffering from domestic violence during the Stay-at-Home Order.Reports are showing that domestic violence is dramatically increasing daily due to the Stay-at-home Orders. Safe preventive measures should be put in place to deter the likelihood of future domestic violence incidents. Some possible suggestions can be increased police presence in areas where calls are being made by patrolling local neighborhoods. Also, by making follow up phone calls should be made to homes of 911 callers reporting abuse. Safety measures can possibly place abusers on high alert that law enforcement is canvasing the areas regularly, which may save lives. Let's please tell our State Representative Rebekah Warren, and Michigan State Police Commissioners to protect our families. Quick safety measures need to be set in place to protect victims in isolation with an abuser. Please sign my petition to draw more attention to this issue.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Talecia Felton

Shelter Workers and DV/SA Staff Inclusion in Hero's FundThe work of crisis shelter staff and interpersonal violence program staff is vital to survivor safety. In the wake of "Stay at Home Orders" asserted by several states and municipalities, survivors are particularly vulnerable to their abusive partners. Access to the services and resources provided by the aforementioned Interpersonal Violence workers during this unprecedented time is essential to victims of abuse. As you likely know, Senator Charles Schumer (NY) has introduced the Hero’s Fund in an attempt to reward, retain, and recruit essential frontline workers during America’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. There are two major components that are outlined in this proposal: · A 25,000 pandemic premium pay increase for essential frontline workers, equivalent to raise of an additional $13 per hour from the start of public health emergency until December, 31, 2020 · A $15,000 recruitment incentive for health and home care workers and first responders to attract and secure the workforce needed to fight the public health crisis. Please support our call to include domestic violence and sexual assault program staff and shelter and crisis workers in the Hero's fund. The deadline to sign is COB Friday, April 17.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ujima Inc

Elizabeth Warren's Recovery Plan for Generations to ComeThe response for handling the coronavirus outbreak has put a lot of responsibility on states. This needs a Federal response way beyond the ability of any one state. It is the Federal government who can take critical steps to ensure we gain control over this pandemic. Right now our Healthcare system is stretched to the brink. Frontline Workers are walking into dangerous work conditions. These are healthcare workers, transit, grocery, janitors, childcare workers, domestic, delivery, and food processor workers. They do not have proper protective gear, and are not being compensated for working in unsafe conditions. And if they aren't safe, we aren't safe. Huge portions of communities of color are being more hard hit than any other communities. Many of these communities already have high incidents of compromised health and live in communities that are economically devastated. This crisis will widen that gap if we don't make structural changes. We are at an unemployment rate near Depression Era levels. Debt is going to mount high for workers and students if we don't' make large scale policy changes. This is why this isn't just a health issue. This is a moral issue, a medical issue, an economic issue, a legal issue and a voting rights issue. More people will die needlessly if we don't have an immediate federal surge in testing capacity. The Defense Production Act can ensure this happens. We need to manufacture tens of millions of tests, personal protective equipment, drugs that are in shortage, and any future vaccines and treatments when markets fail to do so. This dramatic surge is critical not only to test the sick, but test persons who appear to be healthy but may be asymptomatic and keep detecting it in the population and identify hotspots. This plan is asking for suspending consumer debt collection, moratorium on eviction and foreclosures, stop utility and water shutoffs, student loan debt cancellation, free healthcare for persons who have none, increase Social Security and Disability Benefits. Passage the Essential Workers Bill of Rights that will provide paid family and medical leave, give workers PPE to do job safely, give hazard pay, and all workers kept on payroll even if the need to stay home. Pass federal price gouging and conflict of interest laws. Require full disclosure of lobbying. Lastly, adopt mandatory reforms to ensure everyone can vote safely. Medical Needs, Economic Needs, Protection of Frontline Workers and Workers, Laws to Protect us from Carpetbaggers, Protection of our Voting Rights. These are all the Moral Issues of our time. Tell Congress to take the right path to recovery and a better future for us and future generations by signing Senator Warren's Coronavirus Recovery Plan.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pat Watson

Medal of FreedomRush Limbaugh has enslaved the minds of many Americans with his right wing ideology. He has contributed nothing to American society that is deserving of this honor. Undo this travesty by transferring the medal to someone who truly deserves it. Dr. Fauci has served multiple US presidents with professionalism, honor, and distinction. His medical leadership will be responsible for saving thousands of American lives from the current pandemic without regard for their political affiliation or personal political views. The Presidential Medal of Freedom should recognize an individual who has contributed to the betterment of American society and its people- not to someone who promotes hatred and bigotry toward others.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Roger Boudreau

No Post Office--NO TAXESSince the United States, along with most of the world, is in self-quarantine, and there are elections coming up in November, it is of the utmost importance to people's health and safety that they not face long voting lines and possibly unintended infections passed on by the proximity to possible carriers, causing more victims and the possible death of thousands. With the safety of every person in these United States as paramount, the Post Office must remain open as a possibility for safe voting, not to satisfy one person's selfish goals, including the President.147 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Joyce Korbin

An American Spring CleaningMy garage is filled with cardboard boxes. When I get it cleaned out I'll use it as a staging area to safely separate items before they come into our house. The safest way to do this is having a dumpster in our neighborhood, not just cardboard but other things to prepare the area. This would be a great American cleanup.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alan Silverman
