Declare a Climate Emergency in IowaWe demand for an emergency to be declared on climate change because we deserve a future. Scientists have told us time and time again that we need to act on climate change. But we haven’t acted, and now we have 11 years until it’s irreversible. We need to declare emergencies on climate change so our government will take the proper steps to reversing and stopping climate change. In Iowa we’ve experienced horrible flooding, polar vortexes, and record temperatures. This is an issue that has affected Iowa so much, yet no body is doing anything about it. Sign and share this petition to show our politicians we won’t stand for inaction any longer!38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Iowa Youth Climate Strike

This is not about abortion: Tell governors to stand firm against the attack on a woman's right to...Following on the heels of Georgia, Alabama just passed the nation’s most restrictive reproductive healthcare bill that, if allowed to go forward by the courts, would impose criminal penalties on any doctor who performs an abortion, even in the cases of rape and incest. We know the lifesaving importance of access to reproductive healthcare for women, and we cannot even begin to imagine the horror of a high schooler who has been raped learning that terminating her pregnancy is a criminal action. Despite these horrors, Alabama Governor Kay Ivey immediately signed the bill into law. Across the land, other states like Missouri and Louisiana are considering bills designed to provoke the reversal of Roe versus Wade, which protects a women's right to choose under the U.S. Constitution. Ultimately, it's up to governors to sign them into law. Signing such anti-choice laws signals a governor's active participation in the war on women that wants to take away our bodily autonomy and our ability to make our own family planning decisions. Make no mistake, this war on mothers (most women who have abortions are already moms) and women is not about reducing abortions. If the goal of those who are passing such severely restrictive laws was to avoid abortion, then they'd be passing access to free birth control, which is proven to lower abortion rates, not setting lifetime imprisonment laws for doctors who help women in need. What's really happening is a direct attack on women and moms having bodily autonomy, economic freedom, and sovereignty in our lives.330 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Kristin

The ban of plastic straws to reduce plastic use.This petition could make a big difference if enough people will sign it. 4% of the entire plastic is more than people think and will have an impact on inspiring other people to do the same with other things that don't have to be out of plastic and can be out of environment-friendly material.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Stella Anderko

Preserve and Protect Wetlands and Natural Resource Areas in Massachusetts!The Dover Amendment in Massachusetts as it stands today allows non-profit institutions to circumvent local natural resource zoning and wetland bylaw restrictions. We support Amendment H.1765 that will change the Dover Amendment so that future real estate and construction projects must adhere to these local zoning bylaws and protections. We urge the Members of the Joint Committee of Municipalities and Regional Government to move this important Amendment for a vote.187 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Christian Bauta

Make DC a stateWhen Congress votes to go to war, or raise taxes, or reduce consumer protections, it affects DC residents like me as much as citizens of Florida or North Dakota. But DC residents are denied the ability to have a say in these decisions. Making matters worse, because DC is not a state, Congress meddles in our affairs -- for example, rom 1998 to 2007, Congress banned a clean needle exchange program that the DC government had implemented, intending to prevent the spread of disease associated with the use of dirty needles.33 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elijah Weissman

PEACE AND DIPLOMACY:We have ALL been affected by war in some way. My son is a disabled veteran due to the last war, that was useless. This war is being started to stop the impeachment! We must take care of our children at home. We need to stop the violence at our schools! We have to have money appropriated for our children's education. That should be our #1 priority!29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Barbara Kendrick
