In recent events, a father and daughter both lost their lives at the same intersection many others have. The amount of accidents at this intersection tells me the answer isn’t in the changes that have been made in the past. Stop lights have been put up. Flashing lights warning drivers of the stop lights have been put up. Still lives are lost. Families are destroyed. With an overpass built, this will eliminate the lights. Eliminate vehicles crossing multiple lanes in order to get to their destination.

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents board Greyhound buses to racially profile and target passengers of color and passengers with accents. This is in blatant violation of the 4th amendment against illegal searches.

We homeowners of Bay Village Lane in Moncks Corner, SC have a maintenance agreement in place. However, we have two parcels on the left and right of the entrance to Bay Village Lane that access our road. These two parcels to the right and left of our entrance cause damage to our road and don't help with maintenance. We feel that if we have our road paved and switched to a public road, this will cause less frustration for homeowners.

The International Red Cross inspects refugee and immigrant detention centers worldwide. We need to request them to inspect the immigrant detention centers including "baby jails" in the United States to asses access to food, water, sanitation, health care and violation of basic human rights.

Stephen Miller represents the worst ideas of humanity. He is anti family and an anti-American racist. He has no place in the federal government. Please fire him for the good of the country.

Donald Trump is running a con on the American people. His activity is so blatant and unapologetic and must be addressed.

We know that if parents are sent back to their countries without their chidlren, there will be no way to find them and return their children to them. Parent child relationship is the most sacred of all relationships and no state has a right to sever that for political gain. We must get this out to as many people as possible before any morE parents are deported. NOT ONE MORE PARENT DEPORTED WHOSE CHILD HAS BEEN RIPPED FROM THEM .

GLIDE serves thousands of people in the San Francisco Area. They go to the margins and serve people who often have no other place of refuge. Their Church is one of the most diverse and celebrated in the world. The UMC's decision to strip GLIDE of a pastoral team indefinitely threatens to impact the incredible work, mission, and message of the GLIDE Church and Foundation and is harmful and counterproductive to the UMC. Stand with GLIDE!

Plastic straws contain BPA (Bisphenol A), which is an industrial chemical that is colorless, and poorly soluble in water. When the fish are exposed to the toxins, they acquire them, then we eat the fish, taking in a much higher and stronger concentration of BPA via bio magnification. Aside from the dangers that this plastic poses to humans, the effects they have on aquatic life is detrimental. The straws are ingested by different species of sea life that then suffocate on the straws and killing the animals. Fish in the North Pacific Ocean alone ingest 12,000 to 24,000 tons of plastic each year. Please sign this petition and join our journey so we can get rid of plastic straws!

2,300+ children have been taken away from immigrant families at the US border. On June 20th Trump reluctantly signed an executive order reversing a narrow portion of his brutal policy that forcibly separated young children from their parents. However, this executive order has not directed the reunification of the 2,300+ children that have been taken from their parents by our government. Immigration attorneys and advocates and nonprofits such as the Texas “Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES)”, are trying to reunite families individually. Massive amounts of money and time is needed for individual litigation. We as a country should not have to litigate each case individually. This petition DEMANDS that the government return all 2,300+ children to their families IMMEDIATELY. The US government has committed a crime against humanity. The government stole babies, toddlers, and young children from the arms of parents. This includes a woman who was breastfeeding her baby and had the baby physically pulled away from her. The parents often receive NOTHING, not even a slip of paper, when their children are forcibly stolen from them by the US government. The parents have no idea where their children are. Or if they will ever see their children again. These acts are unconscionably cruel and need to be rectified immediately. This policy is immoral, unethical, and must be considered illegal. We must acknowledge the truth of this despicable policy ... these children have been kidnapped. The US government must immediately return the kidnapped children! The government must also pay restitution to the victims for their pain and suffering. PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION and PLEASE forward the petition to all your friends, family and associates.

We are starting this petition as the system of final exams this high school has implemented is flawed. The current system requires all grades under twelve to take the exams. This one test counts as a fifth marking period grade thus having a significant impact on a student's yearly average. This can cause stress and anxiety for having to take a test that counts as a significant portion of their yearly average. Not all students are proficient test takers and having this flaw can potentially damage their yearly average and gpa. If a high school student has an A average it proves the student has learned the subject thoroughly. There is no need for a final exam that can ruin their hard earned A average if a student is already adept in a subject. In short, the goal of this petition is to get rid of finals in all classes and electives for high school students with an A average or higher.

Gun violence is a national epidemic—which is why so many members of the Smart Girls community, an organization I founded to help young people cultivate their authentic selves, have been marching, organizing and speaking out. These smart youth get what Education Secretary DeVos doesn't: That gun violence is real, it's no joke, and we can do something about it. Members of Smart Girls also know you can't cultivate your authentic self if you're hiding in panic rooms or practicing being silent in gun violence drills. At a senate hearing, DeVos was questioned about whether the Federal Commission on School Safety, specifically formed by Donald Trump on the heels of the mass shooting in Parkland, FL, would look at the role of guns in school violence. Her answer? Nah. What’s the point of studying school safety in response to a mass shooting if it doesn’t consider the role of guns? I can't believe we need to teach this to the secretary of education! *Things the Commission is studying:* The impact of videogames on violence The impact on media on violence Effective school safety infrastructure Social emotional support Thoughts and prayers (Kidding! We made that one up!) *Things the Commission is not studying:* Guns Gun violence Gun violence prevention The minimum age for firearms purchases, even though the charter for the commission explicitly included this as an area for study Members of the commission include: Secretary DeVos, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar and Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen, all of whom seem agree that school safety is a priority and that kids should not be afraid to go to school. And yet, they’re not tackling the very crisis that led to the formation of the commission. In other words, what the heck are DeVos and Trump thinking?! Betsy DeVos has not shown herself to be a shining light in America's education system—from her attacks on transgender students to disrespect for teachers—but this is a chance where she could try to do some good. Instead she and Trump's other appointees are looking to waste our money, ignore a critical issue, and cover up for gun lobbyists. Tell Sec. DeVos: Gun violence IS a school safety issue! Take it seriously and include it in this federal commission.
