We facilitate the erosion of our democracy with every dollar we give to companies that do not care about protecting democracy. Walgreens is paying off Republican lawmakers in Wisconsin $1,000 and $6,000 at a time for corporate tax breaks. This is while Republicans legislators are undermining democracy by power grabbing before a Democratic governor and attorney general step in. Wisconsin is not a corporate prize to win. The rise of corporate self interest has been meteoric. We must act, so let’s get going. Stop buying from Walgreens and tell them to stop helping Republicans undermine American democracy .

Chicago Public Schools is rushing to set up a new student data platform using Aspen Student Information System by Follett. This includes data about student's citizenship and immigration status which could be misused and pose a threat to students and families, especially since CPS has suffered repeated data breaches. We want the implementation of Aspen halted until these fields are removed and the parties commit to protecting our children, their families, and their communities.

So far this year, numerous trains have arrived around 6:30 am, preventing students from making it to school on time, which has resulted in unnecessary tardies and detentions. Arriving at school on time can have a major effect on students' education, which is a top priority. Please spread the word so the current train schedule can be ratified!!!

Climate Truth is asking Democrats to call Senator Chuck Schumer’s office at (202) 224-6542 to ask him to oppose placing Joe Manchin in charge of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.

As a citizen, I believe that it is paramount the election process must be totally transparent, and without any foreign interference, or foreign support for any candidate. Any conspiracy between a candidate and a foreign power must be exposed, and serious punishment must be administered upon the offending parties. The next US Attorney General must insure that regardless of the persons involved, the RULE OF LAW must prevail for the integrity of the election process, and for the good of the entire country.

As an advocate against institutionalized abuse, I've identified kickback referral schemes as a primary cause of corruption and poor quality of care for those requesting or feeling a need for such services. I believe passage of S. 3254 will aid in stopping the referral industry that worries more about income than patient satisfaction or well-being.

If confirmed, the former Fox New Channel reporter, Heather Nauert, would become the face of U.S. global relations, interacting with those with decades of experience in diplomacy. Nauert is such a shocking choice that even many Republicans haven't come out in favor of her. [1] As a reckless Trump sits in the White House and spreads global policies that are alienating global allies left and right, we can't afford to have someone like Nauert in an international ambassadorship. Her lack of experience in diplomacy and history of anti-Muslim bigotry is a surefire way of creating preventable global catastrophes. [2] Sources: 1.

Privatizing education and increasing standardized testing has proved to be a dismal failure. Tell the Governor and the General Assembly to restore our public schools and increase teachers’ salaries.

I loved this game, but it's gone to the piss poor Battle Royale community, and it's cancer. Maybe with enough negative reviews, and a strike from playing CS:GO we can stop this.

Joe Manchin, the pro-coal Democratic senator from West Virginia, is in line to be the ranking member of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee next year, taking the place of Maria Cantwell who is leaving the role to head a different committee. Although one of the most public examples of his support of fossil fuels was his campaign ad where he shot a cap-and-trade bill with a rifle, his voting record demonstrates that the ad wasn't just a bunch of campaign hype. Climate Hawk Votes gave him an environmental score of -26 for the 2015-16 session. This year, Clean Water Action gave him 33%, using their own ranking criteria. Watch the campaign ad here: https://youtu.be/xIJORBRpOPM. Please sign my petition telling Chuck Schumer that Manching has no place as the lead Democrat on the Energy and Natural Resources committee.

Boys are getting pulled from class and sent home for wearing earrings. If earrings are a distraction, why is no one distracted by girls' earrings? The interruption is the unfair dress code, teachers sending students to the office, and students being sent home - not the earrings. Change the dress code so that males have the same right to wear earrings as the females.
