California Rent ControlThere is an obvious lack of affordable housing facilities specially for retired Senior Citizens in Burbank, California and its neighboring cities. The owners of apartments keep increasing their rent almost every year and are taking advantage of the absence of laws regarding rent control making it increasingly difficult for Middle Class families to find affordable housing.48 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pocholo Rous

St. Landry Parish School board: Save Half Days For SeniorsSeniors in St. Landry Parish who have completed all necessary educational courses needed to receive a diploma and walk with their class were (before the upcoming 2018-2019 school year), given the option to attend half a day of a school. This gave students an opportunity to apply for jobs, or prepare for future schooling before graduation. The St. Landry Parish school board has terminated this option, which will force seniors not enrolled in other schooling to attend full school days and take unnecessary courses , keeping them from applying to better paying jobs where more hours could be put in. The student body of St. Landry Parish asks you to join us in fighting against this new policy.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bryce Hebert

The People of Heritage Meadows say No to the New sign!The Homeowners Association that covers the houses and the condo/townhouse wants a total renovation of the signs at the front entrances at a cost of $200 per household. This is a high cost for something that does not need to be updated.165 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Sandy

Make Juneteenth A State and Federal Holiday June 19Juneteenth, also known as Juneteenth Independence Day or Freedom Day, is a day that commemorates the June 19, 1865, announcement of the abolition of slavery in the U.S. and more generally the emancipation of enslaved African-Americans throughout the former Confederacy of the southern United States. Its name is a portmanteau of "June" and "nineteenth", the date of its celebration. The news of General Robert E. Lee's surrender on April 9 moved slowly and did not reach Texas until May 1865. The Army of the Trans-Mississippi did not surrender until June 2. On June 18, Union Army General Gordon Granger arrived at Galveston Island with 2,000 federal troops to occupy Texas on behalf of the federal government. The following day, standing on the balcony of Galveston's Ashton Villa, Granger read aloud the contents of "General Order No. 3", announcing the total emancipation of those held as slaves: By the 1950s and 1960s, the Civil Rights Movement focused the attention of African-American youth on the struggle for racial equality and the future, but many linked these struggles to the historical struggles of their ancestors. Following the 1968 Poor People's Campaign to Washington D.C. called by Rev. Ralph Abernathy, many attendees returned home and initiated Juneteenth celebrations in areas where the day was not previously celebrated. Since the 1980s and 1990s, the holiday has been more widely celebrated among African-American communities. This should be a national holiday.369 of 400 SignaturesCreated by TRIANA ARNOLD-JAMES

Fact check BEFORE Presidential debates, not after.Our democracy requires citizens to evaluate candidates and then vote. Citizens deserve to evaluate a presidential debate that is based on verifiable facts rather than spin, misinformation, or outright lies. Candidates should not get to score cheap debating points or audience applause lines based on untrue statements.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Edmond Alkaslassy
