Park Ridge Police Department Age DiscriminationMost people I know from the Park Ridge area, including myself, have been pulled over in Park Ridge at least once for various reasons. As 20-year-olds, my friends and I can say without hesitation that the Park Ridge police department looks for younger drivers on the road and will pull them over and know that they can write them up and give them a hard time. It’s rare to drive through Park Ridge Town without seeing flashing lights and someone pulled over and it’s time that the police start to serve and protect its citizens instead of targeting them.38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Callaghan

Remove Rep Dottie Bailey from the Missouri Secondary and Elementary Education CommitteeAs a veteran Missouri teacher, I understand Rep Bailey's intent is to defund and privatize our public schools.1,089 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Jessica A Piper

Dottie Bailey: Resign from the House Elementary and Secondary Education CommitteeI am a veteran Missouri public school teacher and I have followed Rep Bailey's rise in Missouri politics. Rep Bailey has very active social media accounts in which she attacks her constituents, she has threatened to use loaded guns for violent encounters, and she frequently uses anti-Semitic slurs. Rep Bailey has accepted money from those determined to privatize our schools and dismantle our local school boards. She has also been celebrated publicly by ALEC for her support of charter schools. Rep Bailey's appointment to the Missouri Education Committee is potentially dangerous to public schools and Missouri's children.44 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jessica A Piper

Remove Zuckerberg's name from San Francisco General HospitalI want to remove the Zuckerberg name from San Francisco General Hospital. I don't believe Zuckerberg should be part of our city until he refutes racism, fascism, antisemitism, and LGBTQ discrimination by renouncing the Trump-Pence regime and not making backroom deals with white-supremacist Republican Politicians.130 of 200 SignaturesCreated by James Luppi

Re-brand House and Senate Republicans as PUTIN RepublicansPutin wakes up each day thrilled that House and Senate Republicans are regurgitating his disinformation talking points about Ukraine and the 2016 election and the Bidens. These complicit Putin Republicans are helping to sow discord within our democracy resulting in mistrust of our institutions and the electoral process. Until proven otherwise, it's time to re-brand each House and Senate member as a PUTIN REPUBLICAN - MAKING RUSSIA GREAT AGAIN! Perhaps rank and file Republicans will find their voices and courage to stand for the party of Reagan and Lincoln again. Let the restoration process begin with this step.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brad Seiser

Investigate Rep. Devin NunesPresident Trump’s web of lies and corruption is continuing to grow -- and the latest to be implicated is California Representative Devin Nunes. Rep. Nunes -- ranking member of House Intelligence Committee and one of President Trump’s most aggressive supporters in Congress -- is under suspicion of meeting with former Ukrainian prosecutor general Viktor Shokin in Vienna last year. The purpose of this alleged covert meeting? To obtain information on Trump’s political rival, Vice President Joe Biden. If true, these new accusations would implicate Rep. Nunes in the crime at the heart of Trump’s impeachment inquiry -- and raise new questions as to how deep the Trump administration’s corruption goes. Rep. Nunes is threatening and attempting to discredit news outlets like CNN that reported this story. Congress must thoroughly and expeditiously investigate these claims. Rep. Nunes, who has access to classified and top-secret information, has already lied and sought to derail the House’s impeachment investigation -- and we can’t let him cover up his own potential role in Trump’s scheme. Add your name to tell Congress: the American people deserve a democracy where elected officials are held to the highest ethical standards -- and those who fail to meet such standards are held accountable.37,968 of 40,000 SignaturesCreated by Devon Nir

Tell Congress: Don't deport Yemenis fleeing war!The Trump administration is deciding whether to allow Yemenis — fleeing one of the most brutal humanitarian crises in the world — to remain in the United States. With the U.S. fueling the devastating Saudi- and UAE-led coalition war in Yemen, we MUST have a pathway for Yemenis seeking refuge here. We have just over one month to build HUGE pressure to make Congress make the Trump administration to save Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Yemenis in the U.S. so that they’re not sent back into harm’s way. We already won on preventing the Trump administration from completely ending TPS for Yemen last year. Let's win again this year AND get a redesignation so that thousands of more Yemenis can be protected through this necessary lifeline.283 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Stephen Miles

Koalas have lost 80% of their habitat to brushfires. Ask the Australian government to enact the K...Koala bears have declined by an estimated 80 percent since 1995 due to habitat loss, pollution, and climate change. The recent brushfires in Australia have dealt another blow to this reeling population. The Koala Protection Act would protect koalas by safeguarding the trees that they rely upon and by strengthening regulations to block the destruction of koala habit.Koalas need our help to survive. Please ask Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison to enact the Koala Protection Act into law.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Endangered Species Coalition

Stop Street Racing in SW Bakersfield!On Sunday, November 24th, an innocent woman was killed in a deadly car crash -- due to STREET RACING. Despite numerous calls to the Bakersfield Police Department, emails and pleas to elected officials as well as heightened media/stories on the issue over the last few months, STREET RACING still occurs NIGHTLY in SW Bakersfield. More than 1000 cars have been known to gather at Kohls on Gosford, where it seems to begin. Where is the response from our city leaders? Why can't city leaders work collaboratively with businesses and shopping center owners to put in preventive measures? Please sign this petition to indicate silence is not acceptable and this type of street racing has to be addressed and stopped. How many innocent people will be killed? Waiting for new police cadets via Measure N funds is not an acceptable answer. Street racing like this is not acceptable!

Force Bolton To TestifyThis petition is being started because of the outrage engendered by Bolton's decision not to testify to Congress about Ukraine, while getting ready to publish a book of his experiences in the WH. With his knowledge of what happened and his refusal to speak, he is clearly putting himself above country and truth. And violating his pledge of duty.899 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Russell Marcus
