President Trump, we want you to visit our troops fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan this holiday sea...I've spent numerous holidays away from home in far away countries. I know the toll it takes on our men and women in uniform to fight in a war and be away from their families, especially over the holidays. Every other president who served during wartime has shown our deployed forces respect by visiting them. If the president of the United States asks our military to fight these wars, he needs to at least visit them to show support. President Trump has said he'd "gladly" visit them "sometime soon." Let's hold him to that and show that he needs to make our military members and veterans a top priority.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sean Davis

Bury Silent SamI am a UNC Alumna, an NC tax payer, an Orange County resident, and a committed anti-racist organizer. Enough is enough with the "Lost Cause" narrative that cemented the Jim Crow era. Silent Sam is gone, no resources should be wasted on enshrining the statue.52 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Allison Mahaley

Make Election Day in November a Federal Holiday!Countless working Americans and families with young children are unable to exercise their right to vote on election day due to long lines and limited polling hours. By making election day a federal holiday we can help make it possible for Americans to participate in and celebrate our nation's cherished democracy.48 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Allen Hancock

we demand hand counted paper ballots in all electionsI want electronic voting machines and optical scan vote counting machines to be replaced by hand counted paper ballots because both can be hacked. Since the introduction of electronic voting machines there have been many elections where the official winner did not win the exit polls. This discrepancy has always favored the Republican candidate and is called the "red shift". Germany uses hand counted paper ballots and the results are announced on election night based on exit polls, which have never been off by more than 1/2 a percent from the final count. We need to send this petition to the secretaries of state in all states and also to Congress so we can get uniform election rules and procedures in all states.51 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Evan Eisentrager

New Jersey: Fight for Over-the-Counter Birth Control PillsBirth-control pills can only be obtained with a doctor's prescription even though it is one of the best studied and safest drugs available on the market. Oral contraceptives in the United States meet the criteria of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for over-the-counter substances. Making birth control pills available over the counter increases the number of women who have access to contraception, reduces the amount of unwanted pregnancies and abortions and saves women the hassle of trying to receive a prescription. The issue of whether birth control pills should be available over the counter isn’t an issue that should be backed up by a group’s personal beliefs, but rather, by the countless research that shows its undisputable widespread benefits for society. Research conducted by scientists over the past 50 years since the pill was introduced, proves that birth control pills are one of the safest and most effective drugs available on the market, yet ironically it requires a woman to spend large quantities of money visiting a doctor to receive a prescription. Countries like Mexico have allowed birth control pills to be sold over the counter and as a consequence less teenagers are getting pregnant and having abortions, more women, especially those from low income are using it more often. For a country that is so obsessed with equality among the sexes, it is alarming that women are still impeded from receiving one of the most basic needs for their health, and that is access to contraceptive pills.31 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Maria

Keep Seven Oaks in the SCHS school zoneSeven Oaks Subdivision is positioned on the preliminary map to be rezoned from SCHS to SHS. If this was to go through as is, our students will be the ONLY students in the entire county being shifted into a school that is ALREADY over crowded and supporting 9 classrooms in portables. Since this OBVIOUSLY does not align with the purpose of rezoning and does NOT make sense no matter how you slice it, we have got to make sure we are heard. Please sign this petition and show them we are one unified community in this decision. Thank you,105 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Gina Jones

Mandatory Recycling in KentuckyGlobal warming and climate change are happening. Many different factors contribute to this, but there is one factor that can potentially decrease the rate at which climate change is happening. Only 34% of Americans recycle; all of the other waste gets dumped into landfills. Plastic is a recyclable material, but it far too often ends up in landfills. Plastic contains toxic chemicals which seep into the groundwater under landfills. Plastic also kills marine life. Recycling needs to be made mandatory so issues like this do not persist.38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kylie Ferguson

Save Social SecurityThe cap is unfair. People earning more than the cap should pay Social Security on all their wages. If employers pay high salaries, they can afford to pay the increased match. Ending the cap, which benefits less than 10% of wage earners, will protect Social Security.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pat

Tell the Wisconsin Legislature: Stop the GOP Power GrabRepublicans in Wisconsin lost the gubernatorial election. Their solution? Go behind our backs to rewrite the rules of our democracy. When voters took to the polls this fall and elected a new governor -- who promised to serve as a check on the extremist GOP legislature -- these politicians should have gotten the message. But instead, they’ve called a last-minute special session (with almost no public notice or constituent input) -- and are planning to rig the laws in their favor. They’re rushing a package through the legislature that would limit the new governor's powers and restrict early voting -- all in an effort to subvert the will of We the People. We’ve seen this before in states like North Carolina, and the message is always the same: “If we can’t win in a democracy, we’ll break democracy to get our way.” We must fight back -- right here, right now, before their plan goes any further. Add your name to demand that all state legislators in Wisconsin stand up for voters -- and vote against this hyper-partisan assault on democracy.203 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause
