Save our oceans by banning single use plasticsIt kills me to see turtles choking on straws, dolphins and whales full of plastic bags. It is just so wrong to disregard other lives for our so-called convenience. The EU has banned single use plastics. We need to do the same.1,218 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Patricia Layden

Support the SURVIVE Act at BUI believe that Indigenous problems are American problems, and all of us as Americans should be concerned with what is happening to the original people of this land. Senator Tester's legislation would give tribes funds for victims of violent crime to get access to medical, psychological, and emotional resources, and receive counseling on the justice system.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Samantha Martin

Punishment Matches CrimeAnimal abuse MUST stop. My heart is with the animals; however, most serial killers start with animals. If there were harsher punishments for animal abuse, we would not only be saving these innocent animals, we would probably be saving human lives.44 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susan Gazerro

National Emergencies Act Fight BackThe Constitution ensures checks and balances between different branches of government, these guard against abuses of power. My kids learned that as early as first grade, and as an elected official in my hometown I took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. Emergencies such as wildfires, floods, and hurricanes have left millions of Americans homeless and destitute, resources and attention need to be focused on these emergencies and on the protections afforded everyone under our Constitution and Democracy.605 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Arabel

URGENT PETITION: Stop the Solar Power Grab! Save Net Metering in KentuckyElectric utilities and their allies in Frankfort are trying to jam SB 100 through the legislature before the public has a chance to act. Thankfully, lawmakers in the House worked hard to improve the horrible bill which flew through the Senate, and now we need the Senate to concur with the greatly improved House version. The utilities and their allies are desperate to keep the public in the dark in order to steal the sun, so please take action today! This bill started as an effort to allow the electric utilities to own the sun, and limit individual rate-payers' ability to get a fair, dependable deal for the energy they produce on their own roofs. Kentucky's solar industry is modest, but growing. Frankfort should be doing more to encourage Kentucky's clean energy future, and the original SB 100 introduced and passed in the Senate takes the commonwealth backwards. Tell your Senator to concur with the House-passed SB 100 and stop the solar power grab!

Visitation HoursMany historically black colleges and universities have strict rules and regulations regarding when a student can have visitors over and how long each guest can stay. At Clark Atlanta, students are allowed to have up to 2 guests in their room for a duration of 5 hours. We, the students, believe that visitation hours should be extended at our institution because other students have this opportunity at predominantly white institutions and visitation hours do not affect our academics.212 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Woomy Michel
