Agenda for Senate and Congress during 2019I have listed the four things I believe are needed to be handled first and could make a great difference in our lives. The only other thing I wanna oils add is better healthcare for veterans and universal care for all of the US citizens, NO WALL, and get back to following the laws on the books for people seeking asylum without hurting children and families.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sally Broadhurst

End Corporate PersonhoodGreed is rotting our democracy from the inside. Corporations are now too big to fail, they write our laws, and they and the wealthy own the political process. Citizens United is more of a threat to our country than any standing army or criminal President ever will be.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rev Jason Allen

Protect Free Speech at UT Austin & College CampusesI am a student at the University of Texas at Austin (UT) and believe UT's ban on "rude" speech should be more specific. As a student, I feel banning "rude" speech is too subjective and could allow UT to punish students for many different types of speech. This limits students' First Amendment rights.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by RACHEL READ

Protect Violence Against Women ActThe government shutdown officially began at 12.22.18, which means the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) has expired and programs that assist survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault will be left without funding. The National Taskforce Against Domestic Violence founder Sabrina Mckenzie is standing in solidarity with Women across the nation to resist the idea of building a wall to protect citizens from potential danger outside when we should be demanding monies to protect women from the existing dangers that women experience inside the country each day when every nine seconds a woman is abused. We are calling for a protest and boycott against the wall and demanding that the government shut-down come to an end so that families at the border can feed their children. Furthermore, we insist on the release of funding under the VAWA Act that protects women and children. We have convened a non-partisan ecumenical coalition of high powered women leaders and community activists who are supporting the rights and protection of all women.25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sabrina Mckenzie

Save Indian Creek's Left TurnThis decision was made without input from the community based on calls (311) from people who don’t even live in the Indian Creek proper neighborhood (Between Iowa and Florida and Quebec and Quebec Way) who use this turn on a regular basis without incident). The Indian Creek HOA was only notified of the meeting on 12/19 about traffic changes on Florida Ave. but when residents arrived they were told of this major traffic change on Iowa Ave., that it was approved and would happen next month. Other HOAs were not notified at all. We want the opportunity to voice our concerns and extreme dissatisfaction at not being included in any discussions or problem solving around what others consider a problem.161 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Maria Pearson

Rename Fifth Avenue in front of Trump Tower: "President Barack H. Obama Avenue"The City of Los Angeles recently honored former President Barack Obama by renaming a stretch of the 134 Freeway near Downtown L.A. in his honor. We request the New York City Mayor and City Council do the same by renaming a block of Fifth Avenue after the former president whose many accomplishments include: saving our nation from the Great Recession; serving two completely scandal-free terms in office; and taking out Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind September 11th, which killed over 3,000 New Yorkers.478,668 of 500,000 SignaturesCreated by Elizabeth Rowin

End California’s Three Strike LawsIt is wrong to punish an individual for a crime they have already served time for, more than once, like the current 3 Strikes Law does. This will affect all individuals doing additional time because of the current 3 Strikes Law.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Deb Gehrke

Even more he also promised to put 6% towards the Arkansas Works Program for pre-existing conditions.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carsha Hines

Time to Implement Amendment 4!In 2018, Floridians voted to restore voting rights to felons who had served their time and paid their dues to society. The wording of the amendment includes self-implementation on 1/8/2019. Now DeSantis is suggesting the FL legislature should be involved. We must fight back against attempts to derail this important amendment to the FL Constitution.92 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Katherine Sutherland, MD

Extended Time For Patient And Doctor InteractionsStatistics report 40% of clinicians are misdiagnosing patients, Medical Errors are the third leading cause of death in the US. A recent Johns Hopkins study claims more than 250,000 people in the U.S. die every year from medical errors. Other reports claim the numbers to be as high as 440,000. This needs to stop: Doctors are wasting their talents on administrative work instead of creating relationships with their patients and because of this, patients feel like doctors don't care. This war needs to end between the two so we can permanently erase the third leading cause of death in the United States. #patientsneedmoretime36 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alexa Baldyga
