  • 90 day mortgage relief for CA
    We are currently experiencing a worldwide crisis leaving a huge percent of the workforce out of work. Small businesses are suffering and facing bankruptcy. For the majority, their ability to bring in money has been forcefully removed. A large part of our population have no options to bring in compensation during this time of forced isolation. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Now is the time for Governor Newsom to follow his wise ‘stay at home’ order with a wise ‘90 day mortgage relief’ order.

  • Relief for independent businesses during crisis
    Most commercial real estate in most cities is held by holding companies and very wealthy individuals that can more easily weather economic instability than their tenants, who are usually so busy creating jobs and providing goods and services they don't have time to accumulate cash reserves. BOMA represents building owners, and includes a PAC with lobbyists and is better organized than tenants, and more able to apply for and receive federal dollars. They have it in their strength to organize their members to suspend rent payments for April, 2020, and allow small businesses across America to survive. Without relief to small businesses, many will close, and the unique and resilient culture that they bring to their communities will die as well.

  • Investigate Senator Burr and Friends for SEC Violations
    No one should be able to deal in the stock market with insider information. Not a senator, nor any of his/her friends. Ever. People must release information that can disrupt markets in a timely fashion to the whole public - not just a select few.

  • Tax the wealthy
    The new and very essential stimulus payments to Americans will put a significant strain on our federal deficit and long term debt. The vast wealth of the high tax bracket and top 1+% of American taxpayers can best afford to keep our federal economy and government financial health from further decline. No one likes to pay taxes,

  • Trump Must Tell his Base the Pandemic is Real
    It’s important because the only source of news to Trump’s supporters, especially his base, is his daily tweets. They still think the pandemic is a hoax because Trump tweeted it and played down its severity until this week. They demonstrate this across the nation by continuing to live their lives as usual

  • Rent Relief
    Because we will be faced with a greater hardship of homelessness along with fighting this virus when we can avoid all of this by not putting stress on citizens who are trying to figure out where and how to get money to pay for rent when our jobs are closed or we been have laid off until further notice. If we have NO Job, we have NO money. It is impossible to make families not only come up with money but all those extra fees that landlords add on top of us each day, or they come up with ridiculous reasons to add any fee. We have babies; we have our elders whom we care for. This is not a time to start an eviction on our families during this critical time. Please consider this petition or any other petitions that are proposed the same as this one. Thank you; hope they listen to Us as The People.

  • COVID-19 Emergency Rent and Debt Forgiveness
    As a group, the working class of Alameda have been financially crippled by the critical and necessary measures put in place to slow the spread of COVID-19. Though the federal or state government may eventually provide relief, the immediate conservation of our limited financial resources is necessary for our own and our family's health and well-being. Rentors, Leasors, banks and other relevant institutions can, as a class seek their own relief; the state and federal government is much more responsive and historically more likely to act on their behalf. We must protect our limited cash flow immediately.
