For more than 50 years, Title X has funded family planning clinics across the country, ensuring access to critical health services, including birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing, and more.  This is part of a broader effort to implement the Project 2025 agenda, which threatens not only abortion access, but birth control and reproductive health care more broadly, across the country.  Now, the Republican-led House Appropriations Committee has approved a plan to defund Title X in 2025. Soon, all House representatives will have a chance to vote for or against this radical policy change. Add your name to the petition to urge your representative NOW: Don’t defund Title X! 

Meteorologists are warning that we’re on track for another record-breaking season—just like 2020—when multiple hurricanes and tropical storms formed on the same day. Decades of climate research is clear: Big Oil’s emissions are raising sea surface temperatures, making storms more destructive than ever. Hurricane Beryl shattered records as the earliest Category 5 hurricane in the Atlantic. It knocked out power for millions of people in Texas, during a deadly heatwave that claimed dozens of lives. The costs are staggering—up to $32 billion in damage—yet the fossil fuel industry continues to dodge responsibility for their role in creating these climate-fueled disasters. They profit, we pay. Some states have already taken bold action. In May, Vermont passed the Climate Superfund Act, becoming the first state in history to force Big Oil to pay for the damage their emissions have caused. And they aren’t alone. New York has passed its own Climate Superfund Act, and more states are following their lead. Now, it’s time for Congress to step up and pass federal legislation that will force these billionaire polluters to pay for the climate disasters they’ve fueled. American taxpayers are crushed by the costs of rebuilding homes, communities, and lives, all while Big Oil pollutes our planet and rakes in record profits. It’s time they’re held accountable. Sign the petition to demand Congress pass the Make Polluters Pay Act and force Big Oil to take responsibility for the destruction they’ve caused!

During his first term, President Trump left in place for nearly two years most of the Obama opening with Cuba.  A key actor in creating maximum pressure against Cuba and Venezuela was the now hostile and alienated former National Security Advisor John Bolton.**   For more than sixty years US and Cuban national interests and human well-being have been paralyzed by a conflict over sovereignty, self-determination and freedom with two centuries old roots.***   The historic transformation begun by Barack Obama and Raul Castro was virtually destroyed by Donald Trump in the second half of his first term and only partially rebuilt by Joe Biden. By President Biden restoring mutual engagement, he can rebuild trust and open the door for the second Trump Administration to act positively.  Ending all travel restrictions (including on normal tourism), dismantling the UN condemned unilateral embargo and returning the Guantanamo base and prison that was obtained as a condition for independence, the US can give Cuba space and resources to find more creative national solutions to economic, social and political problems.  It can also create the possibility of US and Cuban cooperation with efforts by Brazil, Colombia and Mexico to find a peaceful solution to the political conflict in Venezuela.

This message is crucial because it highlights a severe injustice and failure within our legal and social systems, jeopardizing the safety and well-being of a vulnerable child. N.A.G.A aka Nelson, who has already endured unimaginable abuse and trauma, was wrongly sent back to the very people who trafficked and exploited him, despite clear evidence of his victimization and the protections to which he is legally entitled. The message underscores the critical need for accountability and reform in handling cases of child trafficking and abuse. It brings to light the failures of various authorities, including the Department of Family and Protective Services, law enforcement, and the judiciary, in safeguarding Nelson's rights and ensuring his protection. Nelson's story is a poignant reminder of the real-world consequences of bureaucratic negligence and legal missteps, and it calls for immediate action to rectify these injustices and secure a safe future for him. By sharing Nelson’s plight, we draw attention to the broader issues of human trafficking and the importance of upholding the rights of survivors. It advocates for systemic changes to prevent such egregious failures from recurring and reinforces the need for a compassionate, informed approach to child welfare and human trafficking cases. Nelson deserves not only our attention but our action to ensure that he is safe, loved, and given the opportunity to heal from his past trauma. #savingnelson 

As residents of Baltimore City, we all deserve to live in a community where safety and justice are upheld. Unfortunately, the alarming rise in brutal assaults committed by juveniles threatens the well-being of our neighborhoods and the peace of mind of our families. These violent crimes leave lasting physical and mental scars on victims and their loved ones, creating a climate of fear and insecurity that no one should have to endure. By signing this petition, you are standing up for the rights of assault victims who have been left to fend for themselves. You are demanding that juvenile offenders be held accountable for the serious harm they inflict on our fellow residents, OUR FAMILIES! It is not enough to offer rehabilitation without justice—victims deserve to see those responsible for their suffering face appropriate criminal charges that reflect the severity of their actions. Moreover, this petition calls for a stronger, more visible police presence in our communities. The current lack of officers on our streets means that many crimes go unanswered, leaving victims isolated and vulnerable. We need a city where our police force is adequately staffed and equipped to protect us, where we can rely on timely responses when our safety is threatened. Joining this petition is more than just adding your name to a list; it is a powerful statement that we, as a community, will not tolerate violence, especially when it targets our most vulnerable. It is a call for a safer, more just Baltimore—a city where we can all live without fear. Together, we can make our voices heard and demand the change that our city so desperately needs. Join me in supporting this petition to ensure that all residents of Baltimore are protected and that victims receive the justice they deserve.

The amount of animals in the streets, the conditions of the animals, the amount of abuse, the daily dumping of dogs by backyard breeders, the lack of animal welfare education, the lack of affordable pet care, the lack of law enforcement and laws for helping the animal crisis, and the exponential growth of the stray populations are issues that fall to the responsibility of the government of Puerto Rico. The killing contracts that Puerto Rico has engaged in for decades have provided inadequate solutions and have promoted Puerto Rico world-wide as an inhumane place. The more that people who are not numb to the situation come to the island and see the crisis, the more the reputation of Puerto Rico will harm tourism and the economy. Puerto Rico is also known for the corruption that exists at every level of government and in the majority of cases, government officials commit crimes of corruption when granting contracts, including contracts for killing. Unfortunately, as the public records and news stories show, municipalities do not monitor, inspect, or oversee contractors involved with animals and those contractors, being driven by money, abuse and neglect the animals and break laws.

Most people are unable to attend a 2 pm meeting during the day.  Thank you.

If anything please, consider how much Jillian misses home and her mommy! Monica absolutely provided for her and put her first. 

Bob has been as asset to the community, providing support, hope, and cheer. Denying him the right to spread joy is simultaneous to denying Santa Claus the right to fly over the city providing gifts to children. Disabling Bob is not only hurting him but the countless neighbors who look forward to his smile and kind word. We need more Bobs in this world!
