Recess is a time for members of Congress to return to their home states. They should be using this week to meet with their constituents, give space for their concerns, and take that back to D.C. Instead, House Republican leaders are now reportedly telling their offices to avoid holding public events when they are home for March recess. This is the opposite of the directions Democrats are receiving—with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries encouraging all members to connect directly with constituents to talk about the Republican-backed attacks on key services like Social Security and Medicaid embodied by Elon Musk's actions and the Republican budget.  Rep. Schweikert was elected to represent us—they should not be hiding from their constituents. Period. Earlier this month nearly 100 MoveOn members from Arizona District 1 urged local representatives to host town halls. But we have to keep up the pressure. Add your name to the petition to demand Rep. Schweikert host a town hall or public office hours during the congressional recess!

1. Ukrainians Face Immediate Threat of Deportation If deported, Ukrainians would be sent back to a war zone where they face bombings, economic collapse, and human rights violations. Many have already lost their homes and loved ones, and forcing them to return would put them at grave risk. 2. America’s Humanitarian Commitments The United States has historically protected refugees fleeing war and persecution. Sending Ukrainians back contradicts our values of providing safety to those in need. The U.S. has granted Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to Ukrainians, but if it is revoked, thousands will face deportation. 3. Ukrainians Contribute to the U.S. Economy & Society Ukrainian refugees are highly educated, hardworking and contribute to the American economy. Many are working in healthcare, education, technology, and service industries. They pay taxes, start businesses, and enrich their communities. Deporting them would hurt local economies and disrupt communities. 4. Ukraine Still Needs U.S. Support The U.S. has invested billions in helping Ukraine fight for its survival. Deporting Ukrainian refugees weakens that commitment and plays into Russia’s goal of destabilizing the Ukrainian people. 5. This Sets a Dangerous Precedent for Future Refugees If Ukrainians lose protection, it sends a message that the U.S. cannot be relied upon as a safe haven for war refugees. This could weaken America’s global leadership in humanitarian aid and make it harder for future refugees to receive protection.

Here are some reasons why you should sign my petition: 1. Safety first: Distracted driving is a major cause of accidents. An app that tracks phone usage can help reduce distractions and make roads safer for everyone.  2. Lower Insurence rates: If Insurence companies can monitor and verify safe driving behaviors, they might offer lower premiums to drivers who avoid using their phones while driving.  3. Accountability: Such an app can encourage drivers to be more responsible and accountable for their actions behind the wheel, leading to safer driving habits.  4. Community Impact: By reducing the number of accidents caused by distracted driving, the entire community benefits. Fewer accidents mean fewer injuries and fatalities. 

Iowa recently passed legislation to undo protections for trans people by removing gender identity from the state civil rights code—making it the first time a state has removed a protected class from a state law prohibiting discrimination. These changes will weaken legal safeguards against discrimination and affect the rights of transgender people at every turn—from hiring practices to health care access. Meanwhile, congressional Republicans are targeting sanctuary cities like Boston and Chicago for the civil rights protections they guarantee to immigrants, attempting to force city governments to comply with Trump's mass deportation agenda, including ICE raids in workplaces, schools, and hospitals. Make no mistake, these attacks don’t just affect targeted communities—they represent a dangerous erosion of our civil liberties and undermine the rights of ALL Americans. Sign the petition to tell elected officials that they must safeguard our civil rights from Trump’s attacks.

We have a responsibility as flight crew to foster a safe and comfortable environment for all; this includes passengers and our fellow crew members. We do not feel some of our coworkers understand this responsibility. 

Sign this petition and send a letter to your Congressional representatives urging them to take immediate action to protect our public schools.

This petition is critical because Representative Huizenga has shown a lack of accountability and disregard for the needs and concerns of his constituents. Rather than representing the people of Michigan's Fourth District, he continues to align himself with an authoritarian president, without considering how this loyalty harms our communities and the nation at large. For nearly eight years, Representative Huizenga has avoided in-person communication with his district, leaving us in the dark about his positions and decisions. He is hiding from his constituents because he is afraid to face the consequences of his actions — and the result is a failure to meet his basic responsibility as our elected representative. Congressional recesses are meant to be an opportunity for representatives to engage with their communities. It is a time for them to listen to the concerns of the people they serve, yet Representative Huizenga continues to avoid these vital conversations, choosing instead to remain loyal to a dangerous political agenda rather than engaging with the people who put him in office. We, the people of Michigan's Fourth District, demand to be heard. We deserve transparency, accountability, and a representative who listens to us — not someone who hides behind closed doors or puts his party loyalty above the needs of his community. This petition is not just about the refusal of a town hall; it's about the responsibility of an elected official to be transparent, accessible, and accountable. We will no longer allow our concerns to be ignored, and we will not allow our representative to turn a blind eye to the harm caused by his actions.

While republicans may be receiving "marching orders" to avoid town halls, it is up to us, the people, to demand them and to ensure members of congress who support the current administration answer to their actions and the impact it will have on individuals and community alike.

Town halls are ways for constituents to provide feedback directly to their elected officials to make sure that their concerns and expectations are heard.  When Republicans returned to their districts in February, they were met with the full force of their constituents’ frustrations. They should be taking in that feedback and returning to D.C. to do their job addressing the needs, concerns, and demands of the people they were elected to represent. But instead, they're planning on hiding from their constituents in the upcoming recess, while they continue to ram through Trump and Musk’s wildly unpopular and disastrous plans, slashing services and funding that everyday people need, and giving tax breaks to their billionaire friends. Not on our watch.  We need to remind members of Congress who they answer to.  Not Trump.  Not Musk.  Not just a few billionaires.  Sign the petition to make it clear to Congress that come recess, we expect them to host town halls and office hours, because they answer to the people.

Ticketmaster and Live Nation have made attending concerts almost unaffordable for the average consumer. We believe this needs to change. Concerts should not cost so much that people have to go into debt to afford them. For example, concert tickets costing $500 for NOSEBLEED seats are unacceptable. Something needs to change.
