• Address the cause of chaos and division: the right-wing media machine
    I had experienced losing my father to right-wing media and then while doing a documentary, discovered it was a phenomenon. All across America right-wing media has torn apart families and the country. Btw, the film I made is called THE BRAINWASHING OF MY DAD. I work with many like minded people who understand the power of this media.

  • Save the Koalas: Ask Australia's Prime Minister to Support the Koala Protection Act
    Koalas are in trouble. The recent Australian bushfires (fueled in part by climate change), killed over 1,000 koalas and destroyed 1-2 million hectares of their habitat. Koalas are now considered a vulnerable species under federal environmental law in the states of Queensland and New South Wales where bushfires have wiped out much of their habitat. Koalas need all the help they can get to recover-especially to protect their habitat (since habitat loss is their biggest threat). The Koala Protection Act will protect habitats and trees vital to koalas as well as protect koalas from hunting. **IMPORTANT FOR PETITION SIGNERS OUTSIDE OF THE U.S. YOU WILL NEED TO USE THIS FORM (copy + paste link into web browser) to contact the Prime Minister directly and urge him to SUPPORT THE KOALA PROTECTION ACT: https://www.pm.gov.au/contact-your-pm

  • Repeated Accidents on Redwood St.
    My neighbors and I regularly experience loss of property (and safety) due to reckless speeding on a long straightaway up the 5500 block of Redwood St. I have lost my parked car to speeding drivers twice in the last 5 years, representing a significant financial challenge. In that time my neighbors have lost vehicles, there have been multiple accidents, a retaining wall was smashed, and a power pole has been struck twice. These accidents are limited to incidents I have personally observed on the 5500 block alone, but our neighborhood has many more stories. There is an elementary school at the top of the block, and many in-home daycare businesses in the area. Please help keep our lives and our property safe by installing traffic calming measures on Redwood St., including speed bumps, extra stop signs, and bolder traffic signs.

  • We The People Have Had Enough
    I am starting this petition in order to get more people involved in our rights as citizens of this great nation of immigrants and born in country citizens to remove the president of the United States of America. He has not upheld the constitution of the United States of America and has done more harm than any other president in the history of our nation.

  • SAVE OUR BEES!
    I am appalled that Bayer has continued to ignore, hide or attack the mounting scientific evidence that “neonic” pesticides are a key factor in the alarming collapse of bee colonies. Study after study shows that neonics can debilitate, sicken and kill bees — vital pollinators that are indispensable to our food supply. The European Union has imposed a moratorium on selling these bee-toxic products in Germany and across the E.U. But your company, the largest maker of neonics, has refused to act responsibly and remove them from the U.S. market. I call on you to stop selling bee-killing neonics immediately. BEES CAN’T BAYER IT, and neither will we!

  • Boycott Bolton's Book
    John Bolton, former National Security Adviser, refuses to TELL what he knows about Trump's impeachable offenses now, so that he can SELL what he knows in a book later. His book agents have planned a savvy launch campaign to maximize profits, but they should consider the moral and Constitutional implications of what they are telling him to do.

  • Save the Joshua Tree!
    A Western icon and the namesake of California’s Joshua Tree National Park, the Joshua tree’s spiny majesty has dominated Mojave Desert landscapes for thousands of years. Unfortunately, the tree’s inability to withstand the effects of climate change means it may not be around for the next hundred unless we act now. Sign our petition to Secretary of the Interior Bernhardt asking him to reconsider granting Endangered Species Act protections to this desert plant.

  • Young Voices in Climate Change
    I'm Zepplyn Berry, I'm 11 years old. I am sick and tired of no one caring about my future. Instead, they destroy it by spending money on stupid things that are killing the environment and the Earth. Climate Change is real, it's not something you can dismiss like other problems. This is for everyone and anyone who needs this to change NOW. Parents? Ask your kids, how do they feel about this? If they agree, please have them sign here. This doesn't affect me now. But it will when I decide I want to grow up and can't because I know that the generations before me have destroyed the world. Climate Change is a REAL thing. It's not going away, so don't treat it like it is. But it can go away if we decide to do something. y signing my petition, you are making a promise, to do something. Plant a tree, donate to an organization, look up environmentally friendly alternatives to things in your life. And for those of you who think this is beyond repair? We are not, because it is people like you who can make a change. All you have to do is start. That is the hardest part. After that it's easy. So help me and help your world.

  • Upper Darby Zoning Board: Vote No on Self-Storage
    As residents of Upper Darby, we believe that citizen-engaged business development will support the vibrancy that all members of our community seek. This current request is an example of a business model that embodies what many members of this community solidly and soundly reject, and fails to capture the spirit of what is required for our neighborhoods to thrive.

  • Keep the Local Bank In Our Community
    TD Bank has been in the Bay Area for years. They have supported local nonprofit organizations with help in collecting donations for our neighborhood children and more. The residence has a place to deposit their incomes directly. Major banks have been closing in our local areas and have left an empty building in its place. We need to continue to support one another by keeping local businesses open in the neighborhood.

  • Tax excessive CEO pay
    At some companies, it would take the median worker 1,000 years to earn what the CEO makes in just 1 year. Out-of-control CEO pay while workers fight to survive shouldn’t be the norm. Worker wages have largely stagnated since the 1970s, while the top 1 percent have more than doubled their share of the nation’s income. Corporate and banking executives make up about 2/3 of America’s top 1% households. The Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act, introduced by Representatives Rashida Tlaib and Barbara Lee, and Senator Bernie Sanders, would raise the corporate tax rate for any companies that pay their executive 50 times more than their typical workers. The bill begins with a 0.5 percent tax. The worst offending companies that pay their CEO more than 500 times their median worker would be taxed 5 percent. Last year, the median Walmart employee made just under $22,000. Meanwhile, CEO Doug McMillon made $23.6 million. Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson brought home $13.38 million-- 1,049 times the median worker at the company. It’s time companies shared the wealth with workers, not just CEOs. The Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act will incentivize living wages. Sign the petition to Congress: it’s time to Tax CEO Pay.
