Reallocate excessive Pentagon budget toward domestic needsTrump's latest budget proposal would increase Pentagon spending to an inexplicable $750 billion next year, while cutting Medicare and Medicaid. Last year, the Pentagon spent $22 million of taxpayer money on lobster tail. The Pentagon also failed its first-ever comprehensive audit in November. A department that has spent trillions of dollars in the past decade can't explain where all the money has gone. Spending billions of dollars on war (and lobster tail apparently) is seen as perfectly acceptable while those in power try to count every penny when it comes to comprehensive domestic programs like Medicare for All or free college. It's time to set our priorities straight. And progressive leaders, those currently in power and those vying for president, must make it absolutely clear that our priorities are to invest in programs that make the world a better place––from international initiatives to stem climate change to domestic programs providing Medicare for everyone. Sign the petition to let current and future elected progressives know they must commit to reallocating the excessive Pentagon budget.1,298 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Iram Ali

Stop Capital Punishment in GeorgiaThere have been a number of cases where innocent people have been executed by the state. There have been cases where the mental and psychological capacity of the accused was severely limited. As a Catholic, we believe capital punishment is “inadmissible” and an attack on the “dignity of the person.” The state of Georgia needs to join with the other 20 states and the District of Columbia in ending this immoral practice.69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Maria Massey

Protecting the Victims of Human TraffickingPeople who find themselves victims of human trafficking are no different than us, and often times, we never really know when someone is experiencing this. These people are often forced into committing crimes and get a criminal record that prevents them from getting a job or buying a home after they escape their trafficker's wrath. Imagine someone in your family was experiencing this, you would want others to help too.67 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Grace Brindza

Oppose "Sycamore Flats" Apartment Complex in ZionsvilleResidents' voices need to be heard, respected, and acted on by our elected officials whose salaries our tax dollars support. We strongly oppose the 184-unit apartment complex that will overcrowd schools, negatively impact town resources, and is stark contradiction to one of the reasons majority of residences specifically seek out to live in the Zionsville community for its charm, character and authenticity.3,548 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Stop Sycamore

Make college fair and end legacy admissions!News that super wealthy families have bought their way into colleges across the country shouldn’t come as a shock—we all know the system is rigged. But what is shocking is that there are still perfectly legal ways to stack the deck against communities of color and white working-class students. The legacy system, where getting into a college is weighted toward studies whose families had the privilege to attend, is still considered a legitimate way to get into college. There are many ways to make college more fair and accessible, and as we work on those solutions to our education crisis that keeps the benefits of higher education out of reach of so many, we must dismantle the legacy admission system.108 of 200 SignaturesCreated by corinne
