Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren: Spend 20% of your Advertising Dollars to Explain Medicare fo...The Medicare for All single-payer health care proposal has been terribly distorted by other politicians, the health care industry, and right-wing media. The massive amount of funds that Elizabeth and Bernie will raise for their campaigns will provide a unique and unprecedented opportunity to educate the public while promoting a central platform of their campaigns. Whoever is ultimately nominated and elected, support for Medicare for All will be strengthened and it will be harder to lie about it.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mark Friedman

Rep. Torres Small needs to come out in support of an impeachment inquiryAs a resident of New Mexico, I am disappointed that I am not seeing Rep. Torres Small on the list of members of Congress calling for impeachment inquiry. There is more than enough evidence to impeach, whether it comes to holding Trump accountable for abuse of power, taking advantage of office for personal gain, misappropriations of taxpayer money, obstruction of justice, conspiracy w/foreign entities to interfere in elections, & much more. We need New Mexico Reps to get on board w/the impeachment investigation/inquiry! Now is the time to take a moral stand and make sure that Trump's corruption and human rights violations will not be accepted.458 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Carmen Carrion

Tennessee Legislature: Protect election securityRussia interfered in the 2016 election in a sweeping and systematic method, breaching all 50 states. Paper ballots prove the safest way to vote since foreign powers can not easily hack them and thus allow for a fair and accurate count of the vote.45 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Leah Sweeney

Take Ronald Reagan’s name off of the DC AirportRonald Reagan’s name does not deserve to be on any airport, especially one located in the nation’s capital. After tapes were released from the National Archives of him referring to African diplomats as “Those monkeys from African countries” it is imperative that Congress work to rename the capital’s airport after someone who’s legacy is one of social justice and not one of racist bigotry.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nigel Johnson

Tesla Lithium 12v supportPetition requesting full 12v lithium charging support for Tesla Vehicles: Even though Tesla’s electric motors use lithium batteries, which are among the best in the world, Tesla doesn’t support lithium charging for its 12v internal electronics. It should. Why 12v Lithium Matters Tesla owners deal with frequent failure of the 12v battery because Tesla uses outdated lead acid batteries that can barely support the car’s basic functions, let alone support after market upgrades (e.g. power inverters for camping, stereos, tow winches, and other high current upgrades). Lithium batteries live much longer, prevent failure, and support high current accessories. Why Teslas Don’t Yet Fully Charge 12v Lithiums Currently, Tesla vehicles will assume that the 12v battery is lead acid, even if you install a high quality lithium 12v battery. This results in a constantly under-charged lithium battery, but the fix would be simple for Tesla to implement through a firmware update. Charging a Bit Longer Would Support Lithium Tesla cars already charge at a voltage that works for lithium (14.8 v), but the car’s internal charger will only charge a 12v battery to a level considered “full” for a lead acid battery (roughly 12.6v). But compared to lead acid, lithium batteries aren’t fully charged until they reach a higher voltage (roughly 13.4v). In fact, what is considered full for a lead acid battery (12.6v) is actually a low state of charge for a lithium battery. As a result, Tesla vehicles prematurely stop charging 12v lithium and won’t adequately maintain lithium 12v batteries unless lithium support is implemented. An On-Screen Option Could Fix the Problem A firmware update could add a simple toggle switch in a menu to select “Lead Acid” or “Lithium” for the 12v battery charging profile. By default, the setting would be set to “Lead Acid,” since that’s appropriate for the stock 12v battery. But having the option for “Lithium” would allow owners to take full advantage of their upgraded lithium 12v batteries. It would also facilitate lithium upgrades for owners who have not yet upgraded. Current Work-Around Until Requested Update Until Tesla implements the 12v lithium support described here, the only way to keep an aftermarket lithium 12v battery fully charged is to use an external charger. That entails buying such a charger and leaving it plugged in overnight in order to pick up where the car’s charger leaves off. This should not be necessary. Tesla cars are more than capable of fully charging lithium 12v batteries, and owners should be able to access that potential. Please sign!22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matt Sferrazza
