To kickstart Virginia into moving forward from our shameful and racist history

Torrid has put a depiction of the Sacred Heart of Jesus on various underwear and bras. They call the pattern Sacred Heart. These are sacred Catholic symbols for Catholics worldwide. Sacred religious symbols are being treated like an emoji or kitsch. Would they do this to the Star of David? Please sign this petition to urge them to recall these items. This anti-Catholic bigotry.

*Our Objective: We are initiating this petition because of the violent and heinous crime that was perpetrated against an unarmed 14-year-old child by his own biological father. Wendell Melton shot and killed his own son on 11/2/2017. He served 4 months in jail and has been living at home awaiting trial with an electronic leg monitor "Program of Intensive Supervision" (NRS 176A.440) prior to trial. According to the State of Nevada: "If the charges against you are sufficiently serious, the judge may hesitate to leave you at liberty while you are awaiting trial, even when you have already posted bail." Our Goal: Is to have Judge Eric Johnson revoke Wendell Melton's "Program of Intensive Supervision" and request that he return to jail and await his court Trial set for 3/10/2020. Why is this important? It is important because it is a slap in the face to our citizens that depend on the legal system in Nevada to be fair and protect us from violent criminals that kill children. This case was mismanaged from the beginning, Judge Eric Johnson was opposed to releasing Wendell Melton from custody, due to the nature of the crime, and flight risk, since the defendant is a licensed pilot. Proof of such statements can be reviewed on court video on 3/22/2018. It was D.A. Dijacamo that persuaded the judge to reduce bail from $808,000 to $200,000 and allow him to post bail for murdering an unarmed child in the chest. Witness to this court proceeding was the victim's mother, Veronica Melton, and Blue Montana. We also petition that the State provide an attorney to the victim's mother, Veronica Melton, in further proceedings. Had she had one on the day that Judge Johnson lowered the bail and let him out on house arrest, then her attorney could have rightfully objected to the motion, but the state and the victims of crime failed to provide one.

Composting in Yonkers is an important milestone to help our city become a truly 'Green City'. Many nearby towns & villages already implement this, including Scarsdale, Tarrytown and even New York City. Let's be the first in Southern Westchester County to roll out a composting drop-off site! It is the first step to bringing composting to all residents of Yonkers.

We are working to select a strong candidate for the 2020 election. We cannot proceed without uniting to address the fact that our electoral system is under “sweeping and systematic attack” and we are poorly defended. Many states are completely dependent on hackable electronic voting systems with no paper back-up to verify questionable results. The Senate intelligence committee reported that in 2016 Russian hackers targeted election systems in all 50 states and “were in a position to delete or change voter data” in the Illinois voter database. NYT writes “the committee described ‘an unprecedented level of activity against state election infrastructure’ intended largely to search for vulnerabilities in the security of the election systems.” We can expect to see the fruits of that Russian search for vulnerabilities in the 2020 election. We urge the candidates in the Democratic debates to unite and focus squarely on this overwhelming threat to the foundation of our democracy, cite the legislation passed by the House to prevent these attacks as well as Republican action to block passage of this legislation.

We the People must protect our democracy.

We all are affected when our elected officials are not allowed to do their job on our behalf.

In Wasatch County, Utah on US Highway 40 at mile marker 40 there is a 3-directional intersection. There have been several accidents here but none more devastating to myself then the horrific car accident that took place on Saturday, July 13th, 2019, which claimed the life of my son. Just before this point, there is a slight Bend in the road as well as a slight incline. For the sake and safety of others, I am petitioning that a caution sign stating intersection ahead please slow down along with some flashing lights be implemented in an attempt to help acknowledge as well as make the countless Travelers aware of the upcoming intersection. Maybe have these already been in place my son would still be here with me today. So in honor of my son, I am respectfully petitioning that these simple warning indicators be secured and utilized.

Com2Us’s mobile games are essentially ripping players off through overcharging players hundreds of dollars to get better at the mobile game 9InningsPro Baseball. This petition is not to fully stop this product or cause backlash, but to create and allow players to get better at the game with other means than just spending exhausting amounts of money (I.e player trading/market.) these features were in older versions of the game and could be implemented again to allow players to have access to the better players of the game without spending hundreds of dollars. With this petition, we will show our support to a great game that Com2Us created but unite our concerns for this game's cost. Thank you, Kodie D. Egenolf

If we allow the 2020 election to be targeted, and we KNOW foreign governments have done this and will do this, then shame on us. Stop trying to do this electronically, let's have fair elections.

The student debt crisis is a $1.5 Trillion dollar crisis, and the government is looking the other way. Though a few candidates have addressed this issue, BOTH mainstream republicans and democrats in general are ignoring it. We would like to create a One Million March for Student Debt in order to request that they act now. The student debt crisis should be treated as one of THE CENTRAL ISSUES of our generation. It is a unifying issue because millions of Americans of all stripes and political ideologies have student debt. It is a central issue for the economy - because the next economic crisis will be triggered by student debt. It is also an issue where it is DIFFICULT to divide the population into separate voting blocks. This is the reason politicians and media outlets are paying MORE attention to the Mueller report and the immigration crisis than to the student debt crisis, despite its immense gravity. They would like to focus on divisive issues in order to avoid addressing our root economic problems. This helps them segment the population into separate voting blocks where the continued corruption of our government continues to prop up the same failing economy. Many organizations, including Strike Debt (https://strikedebt.org/), student loan justice (studentloanjustice.org) and others have been working on this issue, but we need to bring it to the stage in a big way, and we need your help. Non-profits are limited in their ability to organize a massive rally, and we need to spread this to as many people as possible. Also please note, this WILL NOT WORK without your help! Many organizations have tried, and failed to have a successful mass rally for student debt forgiveness. I have also participated in smaller actions that did not spread. I pray and hope that this time it will be different! Please commit to sending this petition to 5 people to further our efforts. In the spirit of the successful Teacher Strikes in West Virginia, and in the spirit of Puerto Rico's successful mass rally, join us now to push a national march for student debt forgiveness. The time for action is now!

It is my belief that both history and morality have shown that it is simply inappropriate for a political state to kill a human being.
