  • New Playground for Raven Ridge
    I am starting this petition now for fiscal year 2020 because fiscal year 2019's funds and projects are already finalized. JBER quality of life funds can be used for purchases just like this and I would love to get our children a new place to play.

  • Impeach Mel Watt, Director, Federal Housing Finance Agency
    After an FHFA employee courageously reported pay discrimination, Watt told her they should explore her pay raise--and whether their "attraction" was "sexual"--alone at his house, while he "mentored" her. It's hard to believe--but all his words are on tape. On January 6, 2019, Watt will retire in good standing with full benefits -- unless he is fired before then. We need to call on Congress to introduce Articles of Impeachment to remove Watt.

  • Tell Nancy Pelosi: We need a Green New Deal
    I'm a Woolsey Fire survivor -- I'm on the frontlines of climate change. So are too many others in America. Climate change isn't some far off, abstract threat -- it's right here, right now, and it needs to be a national priority. The Green New Deal is a big bold outline that can stop runaway climate change. And the American public deserves leaders who are not influenced by the fossil fuel industry in drafting laws making the Green New Deal reality. What's in the Green New Deal? 1) 100% of national power generation from renewable sources; (2) Building a national, energy-efficient, "smart" grid; (3) Upgrading every residential and industrial building for state-of-the-art energy efficiency, comfort and safety; (4) Decarbonizing the manufacturing, agricultural and other industries; (5) Decarbonizing, repairing and improving transportation and other infrastructure; (6) Funding massive investment in the drawdown and capture of greenhouse gases; (7) Making "green" technology, industry, expertise, products, and services a major export of the United States.

  • Help Yemen
    Because no one is talking about it like we should such as The Spanish Cuban Wars or The Taliban killing girls. These children are being starved slowly because of Saudia Arabians wanting control of the land. Why are we trusting a country that is opening doing this. I am so angry.

  • Plastic Bag Ban
    Single-use plastic bags are a growing problem. These bags are made from petrochemicals (polyethylene) and are often used only once and for a few minutes or seconds then thrown away (on average, 12 minutes), but stay in our landfills, rivers, streams, lakes, oceans, and environment for centuries. In 2010, 4 to 12 million metric tons of plastic entered waterways. These bags break down into thousands of plastic pieces and are now found in our drinking water as well as in the fish and seafood we eat. With the current use, by 2050, it is estimated that there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. Additionally, these plastic bags contaminate the land, kill wildlife, gather rainwater offering a perfect spot for mosquitoes that transmit diseases to reproduce, and pose a threat to machinery at recycling centers. We the undersigned, support the adoption of a local ordinance that will ban the use of single-use plastic bags with a long-term solution not to shift from plastic to paper, but to shift to durable reusable bags in the Town of Bennington, VT

  • Organ Donation Education Policy
    To help educate the youth about organ donation before the day comes when they check yes or no to becoming an organ donor at the DMV. People are unaware of how just by checking yes it could save the lives of up to 8 people and take many off the organ donation waiting list. By requiring this program in all high schools, it will allow students to be informed on an important topic such as this one.

  • Reform to IRAIIRA and bring our family home
    We are a family that has been directly affected by the bans put in place under the IRAIIRA of 1996. We need to bring awareness to the government and citizens alike how we are being affected and having to leave our country in order to keep our family together. We have had to give up our lives and our future to exile to Mexico.

  • Let's ratify the Equal Rights Amendment!
    As a Baby Boomer who advocated for the ERA in the 70s, it is my wish that the ERA becomes the law of the land before I die! Only three more states need to ratify it...and that seems like an achievable goal. The Women's Movement is strong enough to make the ERA rise like a phoenix from the ashes. Our time is now!

  • Help Refugees- Inclusion Beyond All Borders: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywher...
    One person becomes displaced across the globe every 2 seconds. By the end of 2017, there were 68.5 million individuals who were forcibly displaced, with 25.4 million being refugees, and 3.1 million being asylum seekers. There are more than 200 immigrant prisons and jails in the U.S. with corporations detaining approximately 15,000 people per day. The conditions of detention centers are appalling and can traumatize any individual who stays for a long period of time. As active citizens of the Land of the Free, we can and will not sit back and watch as the mistreatment of individuals continue. We must fight for what is right, for equality, tolerance and, more importantly, acceptance.
