Donald Trump won't secure our elections -- it's up to usIt seems like Donald Trump will do anything to avoid addressing the threat of Russian election interference head on. Our election infrastructure remains extremely vulnerable. Outdated and insecure voting systems must be replaced. Voters must be able to mark paper ballots which they can verify -- and which can serve as a back up. Election results must be audited manually to establish high confidence that the outcome is correct. Our democracy depends on it. Americans expect their leaders to put their country before their party when facing an ongoing threat from a hostile foreign state. Tell election officials in your state and county to secure our elections and protect our democracy.48 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause

Stop the marijuana ban in HaverhillIn 2016, Haverhill voters by 56-44 percent backed the measure to replace marijuana prohibition with a regulated system of safe, taxed sales. Now the Haverhill City Council is proposing a ballot measure that would ban legal sales and deprive Haverhill of significant new taxes and jobs.286 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Haverhill Citizens for Safe Marijuana Sales

Reject Putin VisitI am abjectly horrified and deeply afraid for my country's ideals and the protection of our democracy after Trump's remarks and behavior at Helsinki. I feel we, as a country, are at a tipping point if not strong voices object to this visit. It's too much.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Terri Quirk

United States Congress: Forbid Secret Trump -- Putin ContactPresident Donald Trump has a proven track record of revealing United States intelligence to Russian officials and trying to circumvent US sanctions against Russia through secret communications with Russian oligarchs, officials, and Vladimir Putin. His unprecedented secret one-on-one meeting with Putin at Helsinki has resulted in Russian claims that he has made verbal agreements to actions that Congress and the American People have no knowledge of, nor gave him the authority to agree to. He has conducted himself recklessly and incompetently and has endangered the security, moral stature, and economic security of the Unites States and its Allies. The deadline for this Petition is July 31, 2018.167 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Kim Mills

Demand For Reinstatement of Cassandra WilliamsCassandra Williams has served the students and faculty of Saint Leo University honorably for an excess of eight years. The student body depended on Ms. Williams as the primary resource for assistance ahead of any other staff due to her dependability and understanding of the culture of the student body. As current students and Alumni, we view her abrupt termination as unjust and a disservice to our university, current, and future students.72 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Stewart

Rahm Emanuel: attend Wed, July 25, candidate forumCandidate forums are an important part of making democracy work. Mayor of Chicago is an important elected office. In 2015, candidate forums managed by corporate media outlets, like Chicago Tonight, were biased in favor of Rahm Emanuel. Mayor Emanuel should justify his past record to the people & explain his vision for the future.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carl Nyberg

Demand Environmental Justice in Massachusetts!All too often, communities of color and low-income communities end up with dirty power plants or polluting factories as their neighbors. That's not right. Massachusetts needs to pass legislation to ensure no community bears the brunt of environmental pollution. The Commonwealth must treat all its residents equally and fairly, and passing strong environmental justice legislation will help ensure that happens. Demand that your Massachusetts legislators take action to support environmental justice.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Miranda Carter, Food & Water Watch

Help Keep Families Together By Joining The Fight In Approving Conjugal VisitssMy fight for conjugal visits in the State of Virginia is inspired by the incarceration of my husband. We have a family and I believe quality time plays a vital role in keeping a healthy marriage and to the development of our children, not to mention it makes for a more calm inmate environment. Please join me in fighting for conjugal visits in the State of Virginia's Department of Corrections and all over the USA. Just because a person is behind bars does not mean they are guilty; some are but there are many who are not. Some have been forced into a guilty plea and others have just been unfortunate and could not afford the proper legal help to assist them when they have been wrongly accused and convicted. I'm fighting to be the voice for them and for the ones who have done their time and have changed for the better. They may not be able to come home, but at least they can be a part of their families' lives on a more intimate level. It is not too much to ask and there can be policies put in place to keep it a hassle-free service. Even if these conjugal visits are only approved on a case by case basis, for example: an inmate may have to reach certain criteria before being allowed to participate in a conjugal visit, or loved ones have to pay a certain dollar amount for these visits. In any case, I'm sure we are all willing to cooperate in order to spend 30 minutes or more with our loved one. We only get one life and the bond between family is extremely morally important and it is an injustice to keep families apart, especially married couples and innocent children. The jail and prison system is often referred to as a rehabilitation center, but there is nothing rehabilitating about keeping people behind bars whether they've changed, they've been on good behavior, or they're just simply innocent. They deserve to spend a portion of that time with their families even if it has to be under supervision. A room with a camera? So be it; we just ask for a quiet place where we can be alone together talking, sleeping, holding one another, being able to be intimate, or maybe a child getting help with homework, etc. These are all things that should be allowed for those who qualify. In conclusion, to whom it may concern, please approve Conjugal Visits In The State Of Virginia. I assure you a positive outcome across the board. Thank you in advance. Sincerely, Tamara Smith Mchellon28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tamara Smith
