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

Demanding the House punish Republicans who stormed witness depositionThe hypocrisy of a group of men who wanted to lock Hillary up for using a private email server compromising national security to defend a lawless president is insufferable. It's time for decent people to take a stand against such shameless disregard for the legal process and take our country back from far-right radicals holding our democracy hostage. These lawmakers must be held accountable for breaking House rules and violating national security protocol. Nobody is above the law!25,674 of 30,000 SignaturesCreated by Falon Lofley

Quitting FacebookU.S. democracy is under assault by the self-serving and dangerously distorted "free speech" policies of social media, Facebook in particular. If Zuckerberg is not stopped, specifically by a mass exodus of users of his platform, all future elections could be tainted and their results will be in doubt.51 of 100 SignaturesCreated by PATRICIA GROSSMAN

Tell Google to fire racist, xenophobic Trump ally Miles TaylorBuzzfeed is reporting that Google hired Miles Taylor, a top political champion of Trump’s racist Muslim Ban and a key player in the caging of children at the southern border. Google’s idea of a good position for this former Trump ally from the Department of Homeland Security—”Head of National Security Policy.”1 This couldn’t have happened at a worse time for Google—Taylor’s former co-workers are facing massive blow-back for their anti-immigrant careers and the shameful attempts to redeem themselves. Google is trying to pretend like everything is fine, but with your help, we can make sure Miles Taylor’s bigoted resume doesn’t go unnoticed. Together, let’s make this as easy as possible for the tech-giant with one massive public outcry: #HeyGoogle: Fire Miles Taylor. #NoSoftLanding and no casual comebacks Trump Administration monsters. It gets worse the closer you look. Miles Taylor’s exact position in the Trump White House? He was Chief of Staff to Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen—the cabinet official who oversaw the execution of the Muslim Ban, filled concentration camps with children, and separated countless families. More than that, he often acted as a spokesman for Trump’s Muslim Ban, speaking on its behalf to outlets ranging from NPR to the New York Times.2 Back when the Muslim Ban was being put into place, Google appeared to take a clear stand against the racist ban. CEO, Sundar Pichai, tweeted “Google is with you” to the people affected by the Muslim Ban3, and Google cofounder Sergey Brin attended one of the airport protests that erupted that week.4 By giving a cushy lobbying gig to one of the Trump administration’s go-to advocates of the Muslim Ban Google has made it exceedingly clear that they are not with people affected by the Muslim Ban, or the tens of thousands who have taken action against it. It’s time to tell Google: Fire Miles Taylor and make it clear you don’t hire people whose job it was to implement policies that brought immense fear and chaos to Muslim and immigrant communities. That’s the bad news. Here’s the good news: the deck is stacked in our favor and we can win this. We’re already seeing massive outrage online. Google workers, immigrant community advocates, and Google consumers are not having it. Given that the company has refused to comment thus far, they know it looks bad. Taylor’s old boss is facing massive national scorn and is at the center of an ongoing #NoSoftLanding campaign, led by a collection of groups including our friends at CREDO, to boycott the Fortune Magazine Most Powerful Women Summit for including her as a speaker—attendees ranging from dream hampton to Brandi Carlile to Hillary Clinton have decided to opt out of the event already.5 Google knows there’s no statement they can make this better—it seems they’re just hoping for the story to be swept under the rug with the rest of the terrible news. We’re not going to let them do that. Let’s make this open letter to Google a place that everyone who won’t stand for the rehabilitation of Trump Administration monsters can focus and grow our call: Google: #NoSoftLanding. #FireTaylor.
