Prisons: OvercrowdingMy older brother went to jail for some months and when he came home, he told us of his experience in there. He talked the most about how crowded it was. It was so crowded that there would be three, even four people to a cell when there were only two beds. He also told me about how he had gotten into a fight/ jumped because he was in a cell with people who disliked him. I want to prevent people from turning to violence due to overcrowding.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Khyrea Daniel

Tell Mitch McConnell: We want the Save the Internet Act!Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is once again abusing his power, siding with his corporate donors and obstructing what the vast majority of Americans want. His target? Net Neutrality. Earlier this month, the House of Representatives passed the Save the Internet Act with a bipartisan vote. It's a clean, simple bill that does just one thing: restores Net Neutrality nationwide to ensure a fair and open internet. Now, the bill is supposed to head to the Senate for an up-or-down vote, but McConnell won't even give it a fair shot. He's blocking any action, claiming it's "dead on arrival in the Senate" -- even though a bipartisan Senate majority voted last year to restore Net Neutrality. In our 21st century democracy, everyone needs access to the internet. But without Net Neutrality -- the baseline principle of equal treatment online -- huge companies like Verizon and Comcast can intentionally block, slow down, or charge money to allow access to specific websites and online content. And Big Cable companies know they have Mitch McConnell in their pocket. In the last election cycle, McConnell received $99K from Comcast, $66K from Verizon, and $49K from AT&T -- so it's no surprise that he'll use his position to do their bidding and kill this bill. We need a nationwide outcry in support of the Save the Internet Act. Add your name now and tell the Senate to give the bill a fair vote!697 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause

Mandatory Recycling In Nevada!Nevada is one of the worst states when it comes to recycling! Over the years we continue to be substantially behind other states when it comes to our recycling progress and processes, we have yet to maintain our 25% recycling rate that was set back in 1991. We must take action now and implement methods like Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, to safeguard not only Nevada's future, but the Earth's as well.124 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Alyssa Stubbs

Send Spencer children homeI'm a desperate mother lost in the corrupt system. My children are in foster care waiting to be adopted like a litter of puppies. They are trying to terminate my rights. I've done everything they ask, jumped through their hoops, and it still wasn't good enough. I'm still keeping up on my child support payments, visiting my babies as much as they will let me, and working my Perm Plan. I have a job and a 3-bedroom apartment for them. They are using the fact that I have no support system; my children's father, husband of 10 years, was my support system but they said I couldn't have any contact with him because he wouldn't communicate with DCS. Now DCS has filed a TPR on both of us after he started working his plan. Our children were taken due to domestic violence, but it was complete hearsay. There was absolutely no evidence, but they took them anyway. My babies have been gone for three years. Please let me reunite my family. 👪 Thank you for each and every signature.39 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Martha Spencer

Legalization After CollegeAccording to the Texas monthly, there are approximately 1.68 million undocumented immigrants residing in Texas. i was born in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas where there are over 200,000 undocumented immigrants that have fled from the dangers in Mexico in attempt to start a better life in the U.S. Many of these people, once they complete high school or college, they are unable to get a job based of their status in the U.S. Seeing these people work hard on a daily basis nonstop and then watching them leave back to Mexico is heartbreaking. But if they were to be granted the status based off of their hard work and effort and proof of wanting be a good asset to the country. If done like this, it would be a great common ground for both the Liberal and Conservative standpoints.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Celeste Robles
