Even without Scott Pruitt heading up the EPA, the Trump administration is moving full steam ahead with its plan to repeal the Clean Water Rule, one of our best protections for the streams and waterways that provide drinking water for nearly a third of all Americans. And with industry insider Andrew Wheeler leading the agency for now, we have an uphill battle. But if enough of us speak up now during a new 30-day comment period that ends on August 13, we can show Wheeler that he's way out of line.

The families separated by Trump are essentially hostages. We need a national campaign to express our grief. Everyone is affected when our moral compass is astray!

American citizens are not monsters that want to steal children from those seeking a better life. This horrifying act by the current administration is cruel and unnecessary. I haven't been personally victimized by this action but as a human being and a parent I think we need to speak up!

Our democracy only works when it’s working for all of us, but right now, the rules are rigged against us. That’s why as part of Fix Democracy Now week, from July 29 - August 4th, we’re pushing candidates and leaders to campaign on their plans to fix our democracy. We’ve already seen new candidates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez win primaries by highlighting their plans to fight big money, and more and more candidates are speaking out every day. Sign on and encourage even more candidates to release their plans, so we can hold them accountable for acting to fix our democracy once they’re in office, and make it so powerful Congressional leaders can’t ignore our calls for real reform. We need leaders who are ready to stand up and fight for a democracy of, by, and for the people – add your voice to encourage them to speak out.

The Endangered Species Act has saved some of our nation's most iconic species from vanishing into extinction. Bald eagles, humpback whales and California condors are here today because of the protections of this groundbreaking and popular law. Despite the Endangered Species Act's 99 percent track record and historically bipartisan support, some Republicans in Congress and Ryan Zinke's Department of Interior are waging a coordinated attack on this law and the species it protects. Congress is considering nearly a dozen proposals that target the Endangered Species Act. Among them are bills that would either block or remove protections from species including sage grouse (a bird that relies on habitat sought by the oil and gas industries) and all of the gray wolves in the lower 48 states. Ryan Zinke, Trump's Secretary of the Interior, unveiled his plans to overhaul the Endangered Species Act recently. The Trump/Zinke plan would reduce the protected habitat set aside for endangered species and make protecting yet-to-be-listed species more difficult. If these proposed changes are successful, endangered plants, fish, and wildlife–and the places they call home–will suffer. Please speak out and tell Congress, Ryan Zinke, and their cronies that the Endangered Species Act is wildly successful and does not need their "modernization" or overhaul. 1. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/22/climate/endangered-species-act-trump-administration.html 2.https://www.esasuccess.org/2016/index.html

On June 29 Library Director Mary Faith Chmiel (white) attempted to stop members of National United Council black students from meeting in the study area. The Director followed youth around and stating that our group was in violation of Library policy. The Mayor said our group was not in violation but the Library director continued to harass with security guards and white staff. This same Director has a history of attempting to stop black groups from having access to Library facilities.

To Keep Whoopi Goldberg on the VIEW

I am outraged that America's iconic wildlife is being subjected to cruel and unconscionable persecution.

When a party begins to structure the government in a way that keeps them in power, removes the executive branch's power, and makes the judicial branch subservient, we no longer have a democracy, we have a cleptocracy. Don't allow any party control your right to choose. Call them out when they refuse to attend Town Halls or other events that won't allow you to express your opinions about how they conduct themselves. Force them to stop taking money from wealthy corporations, lobbyists, and individuals.
