This is important because without continuing our education we would be another statistic on the street. Akthem and I are students who are willing to learn. Can Glenbard South deny us education? Can they treat us like objects? With hope Akthem & I can be students again. Make Glenbard South Believe In Us Again!!

This request is important because in this residential building we have children under the age of 13. We also have tenants whom have asthma and arthritis that need to be in a warm environment.

This is Important, because we need to understand once a person commits a crime wether big or small and they are punished, that should be it. instead our system and people whom have nothing to do with the system holds grudges and continues to spitefully attack African AMERICANS such as Michael Vick for crimes that they already paid for. This makes you wonder is it about the crime or is it about his race. There are many stories with other “non-black” athletes that are worse and no one is petitioning to tarnish there name or take away their accomplishments. I ask this simple question, what does his Past “paid for” crimes have to do with his ability to be put in the position as pro bowl captain! LEAVE THIS MAN ALONE ALREADY, you guys have tried to ruin his life in every way. ITS ENOUGH! I ask those that are tired of people holding your past against you and wish you could just move on with your life and not continuously be punished over and over wether it be non criminal or criminal to sign this. This petition is not only for Micheal Vick but for you as well. Let’s hope this petition will help M.V live in peace with all his accomplishments untouched. Thank you Kat St. John

The producers take advantage of the people who agree to come on the television show. They mess with their lives and feelings!! There is proof that one of the producers contacted someone who was on the show and threatened them because they refused to cheat on their partner!! WHAT PRODUCER DOES THAT?! They ruined relationships and real peoples lives!! No TV show should do that. They have over 10 STORY PRODUCERS!! “A Story Producer is a term used in reality television for the person who is responsible for creating a story line via editing/producing the show's source footage. They may also be responsible for writing Host dialogue.” This show is bad for our children and their future. Nobody can learn a thing from this show! It is being run by unprofessionals!! Nobody deserves to go on this show after getting told they will be there to learn and grow! Nobody that has been on this show can agree on that! Please sign this petition!!

Help three Bellingham High School juniors raise awareness and bring about a change in the ineffective and unethical American prison system.

The Wichita City Council wants to extend their 2 term limit to 3 terms. That's 12 years instead of 8. They want to add another term of 4 years to this. They are voting on this Tuesday, December 10th. Let them know what you think! Is this a bad thing? Do we really want the same people in control for 12 long years? Is it a good thing so they can finish up with projects they started that are long term? How will this change the way our City Council is run if we have the same Council and Mayor for 12 years? Here's the motion for Tuesday: Charter Ordinance Amending the Terms and Term Limitations of Mayor and City Council Members and Repealing Sections 8 and 9 of Charter Ordinance 226. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Place the charter ordinance on first reading (!!) and authorize all necessary signatures. Find it here: https://www.wichita.gov/Council/Agendas/12-10-2019%20City%20Council%20Agenda%20Packet.pdf

People who use prepaid debit cards, are normally low-income consumers collecting government benefits, and should be protected from these high fees. Many are members of a protected class by Federal Statutes to include older people who are of a protected class and many who are not of such class. These people on a large scale do not clearly understand what is happening to their monies. The explanations that are associated with the charging of these outrageous fees are just not easy for many to understand. They need their monies extremely bad, to try and make ends meet. It is not easy in a world of hate where people are out to see and find joy in seeing the suffering of others. The rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Illegal housing discrimination and affordable housing hard to find, homelessness everywhere were many good people have fallen on hard times, Guardians of the mentally ill who are stripping them of their S.S.I incomes giving them 0 to low of their monies, homeless people living in tents, sleeping on bus stops, in laundromats and other forms of sufferings. Those in this group of people are suffering hard enough and do not in any way need these high fees associated with the card as mentioned above. It needs to be put and end to. Stop it, I say!

The New York Times has broken the news that consultants from McKinsey—a global, corporate consulting firm that holds contracts with numerous government agencies—were complicit in fueling Trump's vicious anti-immigrant agenda. Not only were they willingly paid to collaborate in the development of an inhumane and illegal set of policies, they made recommendations that even made ICE officials uncomfortable—all in the name of separating, detaining, and deporting more immigrant families. The Trump administration's immigration policies are a stain on our nation's soul. The House of Representatives, which is already investigating the family separation policy, should specifically investigate the role of McKinsey consultants; how much they were paid; what expertise they brought; what recommendations they made; and how many other federal contracts they hold. We need Congress to take measures to cut all ties to McKinsey and other consulting firms that benefit so richly at taxpayer expense. Congress must ensure it will no longer fund inhumane policy proposals to punish immigrant families. #DefundHate

The Trump Administration recently announced changes to SNAP that will cause hundreds of thousands of people to lose access to their “food stamp” benefits. SNAP, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program commonly referred to as "food stamps," is a federal nutrition program that’s critical for fighting hunger in the United States. According to Feeding America, "SNAP provides families with their basic nutritional needs to get them through temporary hard times. It helps people get back on their feet and on the road to a better life.” However, the Trump Administration has been working for the last three years to undermine SNAP as part of their agenda to limit access to public assistance programs. The newly-announced attack on SNAP is especially outrageous because Congress rejected these proposed changes to the program during the Farm Bill debate last year. The House rejected it in a bipartisan vote of 330-83, and the Senate voted down a similar amendment 68-30. But now, Sonny Perdue, Trump’s Secretary of Agriculture, is moving forward with these changes through an undemocratic “executive order” that targets very poor people struggling to work — many of whom are homeless, living in small towns and rural communities with little or no access to employment, or have health conditions that prevent them from working. Please join with us and demand that Sonny Perdue stop the Trump attacks on food assistance programs critical for fighting hunger in the United States.

Kelly is a 23-year-old transgender asylum seeker who has been locked up in immigration jail for 2+ years. Kelly is suffering medical neglect and was put in solitary confinement for four months solely because of her gender identity. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has the power to release her immediately but refuses to let her go. During her early childhood, Kelly survived beatings and psychological abuse from her own family. She fled to Mexico at 12 years old seeking safety but instead became a victim of sex trafficking and labor trafficking. Kelly escaped to the U.S. when she was 17. She was briefly locked up in immigration jail and when she was released, she found a lawyer to help her apply for asylum. But, Kelly’s lawyer never told her about her appointment at the asylum office. While her asylum case was still pending, Kelly was arrested. Although she has never been convicted of any charges, ICE transferred Kelly to immigration detention immediately. Kelly is suffering tremendously, both physically and mentally. Additionally, her unnecessarily prolonged detention is exacerbating the trauma she has experienced as a domestic violence and human trafficking survivor. During her 2+ years in detention, Kelly has never been given a bond hearing. All Kelly wants is to live safely and without fear. Unfortunately, there are many more transgender individuals like Kelly who are unjustly locked up in immigration jail while they apply for asylum, and are experiencing inhumane treatment because of their gender identity. Kelly needs your help. Join us in demanding Field Office Director Corey Price and Assistant Field Office Director William M. Jepsen use their discretion to #FreeKelly. Sign the petition now!

We’ve heard from multiple witnesses in the House’s impeachment investigation into President Trump. And they’ve each given us a crucial look into the president’s troubling conduct. But there’s one key player who has yet to be questioned -- and the American people deserve to hear what he has to say: President Trump himself. Trump has told lie after lie to the public to cover up his repeated abuses of power. That’s why he must testify before Congress -- and swear under penalty of perjury that he’s telling the truth. The American people deserve to hear from Trump under oath on questions like: - When will you release the full, un-redacted transcripts from your calls with the Ukrainian president? - Is it acceptable for candidates to solicit campaign help from a foreign entity? - When will you release your tax returns, as you’ve publicly said you’ll do? Both President Nixon and President Clinton gave depositions around their impeachment inquiries. And Democrats have the power to call Trump to testify right now. He can either comply, or admit he’s not prepared to do that -- which will speak volumes. The impeachment process is meant to educate the American people, so they can be active participants in judging the facts and making a decision. But that can’t happen as long as Trump has free rein to lie to the public -- so it’s time for Congress to compel Trump’s sworn testimony and get the genuine truth, or make Trump face legal consequences if he lies. Add your name to tell Congress: make President Trump face the American people -- and give a deposition under oath.

Last year M-44s killed more than 6,000 animals, including coyotes and foxes, a bear, opossums, raccoons and skunks. M-44s are one of the most barbaric methods in the government's war on wildlife — and Trump's EPA has again refused to ban it. Help us protect wildlife from these killing devices by signing the petition to get them banned. Trump's EPA has shirked its duty to protect wildlife, people and pets. In August the EPA issued an interim decision renewing sodium cyanide registration. A week later it withdrew that interim decision for more discussions. Even though more than 99.9% of people commenting on the proposal asked the EPA to ban M-44s, the agency decided to keep cyanide bombs in its arsenal. If we're going to stop this madness, we'll need to redouble our efforts. With your help, we can put a stop to the use of cyanide traps once and for all. Please stand up against M-44s by signing our petition.
