I understand we've had issues with immigration, but listening and reading about mothers and fathers being separated from their children is gut-wrenching and a heartless practice. I sincerely don't recognize our country. It has become a divisive tactic by our President.

I am a kindergarten teacher. This could permanently traumatize the babies and children. This is being used to punish immigrants which is what our country was built on. So sad.

I love my Daughter!

This will help limit corruption by powerful lobbyists who line the pockets of career politicians for favorable outcomes. It will also help prevent lazy elections.

Gilead Science's ad for Harvoni shows people releasing sky lanterns up into the night sky. These and released balloons cause great harm to wildlife and domestic animals. The sky lanterns can also start wildfires and structure fires. People see these ads and are inspired to do their own releases of harmful trash that will always come down and become an issue. We need your help, so I respectfully request that you stop showing this or any advertisement that glorifies practices that destroy innocent lives and litter our earth.

California’s current bail system is punishing families and communities. Most Californians cannot afford to post bail and so must either stay in jail or pay substantial nonrefundable fees to a bail bond company. These fees are not refunded under any circumstances – even if the court finds that a person is innocent or was wrongfully arrested. Over-policing of communities of color results in more arrests, exacting a disproportionate price from these communities. Whole families suffer, as they take on long-term debt to purchase the safety and freedom of a loved one, and women are hit the hardest. According to an Ella Baker Center survey, 83% of family members who take on court-related costs on behalf of loved ones are women. Successful models for reform can be found in Santa Clara County California as well as other states. In Santa Clara County, the pretrial risk assessment tool has saved $33 million in six months by keeping 1,400 defendants out of jail. Pretrial release costs the county just $15-$25/day compared with $204/day for incarceration. In addition to the cost savings, 95% of defendants appear for their court dates, while 99% are not rearrested while released to the community. This is clearly a more equitable and safer option for our community with the additional benefit of long-term financial savings on incarceration. Money saved could potentially be used for education in our communities. Under the California Bail Reform Act, judges will have access to more information than they do now about people coming before them so they can determine, based on the circumstances of the individual case rather than a person’s wealth, who can return home and under what conditions while their case is being resolved. More informed decision-making protects public safety while reducing the number of people kept in jail after arrest.

Dennis Rodman has been an inspiration to private citizens working for peace. His successful outreach to North Korea may have helped prevent war where our government has failed. He stands as an inspiration to other global activists to do the same in promoting peace everywhere.

People are disenchanted with how they are represented and don't think their vote counts. There have been two presidential elections in recent history (Bush and Trump) that have been determined by the electoral college, even though the opposing candidate received more popular votes. One citizen, one vote is true democracy.

I am an ordinary American citizen who is horrified by the White House’s interference into The Justice Department’s lawful and legitimate investigation into Russian meddling into our 2016 election and am equally horrified by this president’s disgraceful, dishonest and dangerous conduct as it relates to the DOJ, foreign policy, conflicts of interests and his suspicious defense of Russian President Vladimir Putin, as well as lending credibility to other dictators and criminal oligarchs to the detriment of democracy and to all freedom loving nations in the world. Trump and his corrupt clan are guilty of obstruction of justice, on its face, of unlawfully exploiting the executive office for financial gain, as proven, and very possibly, of treason against the people of the United States of America. He is a cancer to our democracy and must either stand down and allow the Justice Dept to finish its work or resign the office

The purpose of this petition is to penalize the NFL in Oakland, California for its blatant abuse of their players' right to free speech and protest.

The outsourcing of the HHS dept was done without notifying Derry residents of this important change. It was not on the agenda until the May 15 budget review and voted to be closed same day, vote 4-3. The union employees were made aware of this change, which does violate their contract. With that being said, both individual's major concern is the quality of care our residents in need will receive with this outrageous and abrupt change, especially since some government/state refunds and grants will not be available to the outsourced provider. Please sign and share to bring Health and Human Resources back to Manning St. The only requirement is YOU MUST BE A DERRY NH REGISTERED VOTER.

I attended Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school. My friends have died. My teachers have died. STOP THIS RIGHT NOW; WE ARE ALL SICK OF IT!!!!
