Stop Political Lying on FacebookThe spread of false information is prevalent and damaging, and most of it is aimed at personal attacks for political gain. It is estimated that 45% of people get at least some news from Facebook and half of those get it ONLY from Facebook. Mr. Zuckerberg announced that they will do NO fact-checking during this election cycle. In the absence of that, we must demand a responsible approach.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susan O'Connor

Mark Zuckerberg Must Begin Screening Politcal Ads for Outright LiesCould Moveon start a petition to send Mark Zuckerberg for his unwillingness to fact check specious political crap on Facebook, for allowing Breibart News to be a sanctioned news source, for selling our data, for again allowing lies to interfere with the 2020 elections. He is another grubbing, greedy, corporate sell-out. His address in San Francisco is 3660 21st St (between Church & Sanchez St), and 1456 Edgewood Dr. ( between Southwood Dr. and Newell Road.)5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bill Strubbe

Say no to toxins in your to-go cup!Cumberland Farms needs to stop serving coffee in foam cups. We all know how detrimental this product is to the environment and to the human body as well. It's unfathomable that in 2019 Cumby's is still exclusively using these toxic, polluting single-use cups, especially when their competitors have switched to more eco- and bio- friendly options. Their customers deserve better, as does the environment. From HealthBeckon.com -- "The ‘styrene’ present in Styrofoam cups and other such containers has the ability to percolate the food or beverages carried in them. The foods can be anything, ranging from hot or cold drinks, snacks, alcohols to acidic eatables. Styrene is a suspected carcinogen and neurotoxin. It carries a host of other adverse health effects like: Irritation and mucous secretion from eyes and nose. Increased levels of fatigue and decreased concentration ability. Increased levels of abnormal pulmonary function and cancer. Disrupts normal hormone functions resulting in thyroid problems and other hormone related problems. Styrene has unpleasant effects on the environment too. And the most unpleasant of those is the fact that styrene takes about 500 years to decompose. Much of the food packaging we eat from today might be disposable, but not decomposable; at-least not for another half a millennium. When polystyrene waste meanders down the drains and waterways to merge with the big seas and oceans, it carries the prospect of killing the marine life. On the other hand, the mere process of polystyrene manufacturing pollutes the air to a very large extent." Sign and share this petition asking Cumberland Farms to switch to a hot beverage containers that won't poison its' customers and OUR earth.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tanya Bourgoin

Cut off arms sales to TurkeyTurkey relies on US weapons and ammunitions, and Congress has the ultimate say on who and where to sell them. We can stand up for the Kurdish people, as they’ve pleaded with us, and demand our members of Congress block all weapons and ammunition sales to Turkey. The Syrian Kurds worked side-by-side with US forces to fight ISIS, but Trump simply abandoned them to face a military onslaught from Turkey. But we don’t have to just sit and watch the news in horror while Turkey launches an brutal campaign against the Kurdish people. We can act!396 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Robert Cruickshank

Stop Facebook from wrecking our economyFacebook is already interfering in our elections. But did you know that Zuckerberg has something even more terrifying in the works? It’s called Libra, and it’s a digital currency he would control. Experts say Libra is a huge threat to democracy and could take down the entire global economy. Facebook wants to shift control over our entire monetary system from central banks and democratically-elected governments to a private table of massive corporations. House Financial Services Chairwoman Maxine Waters and a coalition of grassroots groups like us have raised serious concerns about Facebook’s currency proposal. Libra threatens national sovereignty, consumer protections, a competitive market, and privacy rights. And its dark money system leaves it open for abuse by money launderers. Zuckerberg needs to be stopped.270 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Robert Cruickshank

Opposition to Orphanage Road Rezoning PlanIf this rezoning plan is approved, Orphanage Road and Trinity Church Road will witness a dramatic increase in traffic on already dangerously congested roads. In addition, the 277 lots of mostly densely packed urban town homes are inconsistent with the residential character of the directly adjacent neighborhoods of Autumn Chase, Applegate Drive, and Grandhaven Drive.171 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Anthony Meltvedt

Google: Stand with Children and FamiliesOne of the key leaders of Trump’s Family Separation policy, Miles Taylor, has been given a plum position at Google as head of national security relations. Taylor served as Chief of Staff to former Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Kristjen Nielsen, who recently defended the decision to separate families. The full scale of the horror of the Family Separation Policy is still coming to light -- we just learned that 1556 more families were torn apart, while countless still remain separated. According to the ACLU, of the 1556 new cases, five children were under a year old, 26 were a year old, 40 were 2 years old, 76 were 3, and 60 were 4 years old. What’s most terrifying? It’s unclear if they have been reunified. Because the government didn’t have a way to track families. Take a step back and imagine for a moment what it must be like to have your child ripped away from your arms. And then for that child to be put into a freezing cage while Trump lawyers argue that they don’t deserve soap, blankets, or toothbrushes. DHS top employees like Taylor likely saw images of families in tears as they were torn apart, received detailed briefings on the psychological trauma it was causing, read internal reports of widespread sexual abuse and torture -- and CHOSE to work to keep those inhumane policies going. Google’s motto is famously, “don’t be evil.” For all the traumatized families and children -- including the six children who died in U.S. custody -- here is your chance. Add your name to call on Google and all Google employees to live up their values and demand the company do the right thing and stop hiring key players of Trump’s Family Separation Policy. Children and families are just beginning to face the long-term psychological trauma associated with family separation. Some children were separated at such a young age and for such a long time -- that they didn’t even recognize their parents when they were reunified. Add your name now: No person who helped tear children from their mother's arms deserves a soft landing. CEO Pichai publicly condemned Trump’s Family Separation when it was first announced. Don’t back down on your values now.3,046 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Paola Luisi

Members of Congress: Publicly Reaffirm Your Oath of OfficeDefending a corrupt President and protecting his interests in the face of overwhelming evidence against him is a supreme dereliction of duty for any Senator or Congressman who puts their fealty to Donald Trump above their sworn duty to the Constitution of the United States of America. My hope is that a public reaffirmation of our elected representatives' sworn duties to the Constitution will remind not only all of them, but their constituents too, where their loyalties should lie.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dave Hunter

Unfair basketball teams at Noho recreation centerIt’s important because it about our children’s self esteem. Having equal amount of minor to major players and not just all majors against minor for both GPLA as well as co-Ed basketball teams. The kids should leave the basketball games feeling confident not unhappy and depressed with their dreams crushed by the winning team. A game with point of 15/52 isn’t called a game ! It called unfair !57 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Wanda A
