Fire the NM Game CommissionThe New Mexico legislature has failed to restrict trapping, leaving it to the Game Commission, appointed by the governor, to respond to public outcry against this cruel practice. But the Game Commission has restricted public testimony at its meetings to a minute or two, in order to allow the Game Department to continue its hunting and trapping policies.185 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Marc Bedner

No More Loggers in National ForestsIt has been proven we only can breathe oxygen. If our future generations will have any hopes of surviving it is pertinent to leave our oxygen resource in tact. These forests were ordained to be protected lands for the people and not meant to be a profit for corporations. After all, what use is money if you do not have the oxygen necessary to breathe. Save the future of tomorrow by demanding that all national forests are not acceptable harvesting sites. Instead, companies should invest into sustainable ways of gaining access to new profits. For example, they need to plant, tend, and harvest only from the lands they personally plant for the sole purpose of cutting and gaining profit.470 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Sheena Staton

John Bolton is Out, Wilbur Ross Should Be the Next to GoWilbur Ross never should have been confirmed. He has huge conflicts of interest. He falls asleep in meetings. He authorized the unconscionable effort to include a citizenship question on the census — designed to deter recent immigrants from responding. And he now ordered officials to lie or be fired. Wilbur Ross has got to go.301 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Courtney Fuller

Jackson Twp. Parks Dept. Off Leash Dog ParkTo preserve green space, Jackson Township has created an extensive park system consisting of eight parks with over 240 acres of land where residents can play, enjoy nature and the outdoors. It is the mission of the Jackson Township Parks & Recreation Department to improve the quality of life for all residents by providing & maintaining quality parks, facilities, programs, services and cultural opportunities designed to enhance the appreciation of open space, leisure and community involvement. There is no off-leash dog exercise facility within the Jackson Township Parks Department. Township resident pet owners need and deserve a facility within the park system for their domesticated canine pets (dogs) to exercise and socialize in a controlled "Off Leash" area within the park system. By signing this petition, I support the creation and maintenance of a Off Leash Dog Park as part of the Jackson Township Parks Department.174 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Jackson Twp. Dog Park

Cancel Saudi Dictator Event in New YorkOn September 23, 2019, Saudi Arabia's brutal crown prince Mohammad Bin Salman is holding a preposterous event in New York City. No one should attend. The Saudi dictator's personal charity will host U.N. officials, VIPs, and several hundred youth at the New York Public Library. Attending youth will supposedly learn how to "balance purpose with profit." (1) This is the same Saudi dictator who has: - slaughtered thousands of people in Yemen, - murdered dissident Jamal Khashoggi, and - imprisoned and tortured women's rights activists. Why should anyone be learning about "purpose" from a charity run by Saudi Arabia's dictatorship? To make matters even more ridiculous, VIP attendees include: - the granddaughter of Jacques Cousteau, Alexandra Cousteau; - Paul Polman, the former CEO of Unilever; - Bart Houlahan, cofounder of B Lab; - Jayathma Wickramanayake, the UN Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth; - Andrew Corbett, Professor at Babson College; and - Ann Rosenberg , Senior Vice President for UN Partnerships at SAP. (2) (3) How did any of these people think this was a good idea? Were they paid to participate? If so, how much? All UN officials and VIP guests should drop out immediately. No one should be helping a Saudi dictator use charity events to wash away their crimes. Journalist James Reinl has written extensively about this event in articles for Middle East Eye, Inter Press Service, and Inside Over.

Close stores on Thanksgiving DayI have observed over the last few years, that stores have begun to open for business in the afternoon or early evening on Thanksgiving Day. This prevents the workers from enjoying one of the most important holidays with their families. Some businesses have capitalized on profits from bargain hunters looking for black Fridays deals, at the expense of employees' time with families. I believe other concerned Americans would want to see stores remain closed in observance of Thanksgiving. Let Black Friday remain on Friday!74 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Evangeline Kirigua
