Stop Racial ProfilingEveryday people are pulled over for speeding, and broken tail lights, but does it become an issue when law enforcement start pulling people over for no reason. The Fourth Amendment states “the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” Despite this right, multiple minorities across the country suffer at the hands of police officers through racial profiling; the singling out of a person or persons as the main suspect of a crime based on their race. Many people have also suffered the loss of a loved one because police believed the suspect to be a threat based on their races therefore the officers use their authority to take out the “threat”. Although racial profiling may make sense to police officers in the line of duty, through the eyes of the public and those affected by police actions, it is a form a racism that is not being confronted and is allowing unjust convictions and deaths. Police officials often use the practices of racial profiling to discretely single out minority races.28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Roshanay Wolfe

Thank the SC Senate Dems who protected abortion accessLast Thursday, the GOP attempt to make abortion illegal in South Carolina was thwarted by a unified effort by the state's Democratic Senators. All of the Democratic Senators pledged to filibuster until the end of the session to prevent a final vote on the abortion ban. Sen. Marlon Kimpson spoke for 8 hours to show the determination of the Senate's Democratic members. The Republicans relented, and sent the bill back to committee, effectively killing the bill for the year. Please join us in thanking the Democratic Senators for standing up for women, and for abortion rights.397 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Michael Morrill

Congress: End the Cover-Up of Big AgConsumers don't support animal abuse -- but they are being denied accurate information by Big Ag and the US government through a series of laws, including the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act and numerous ag gag bills, designed to suppress and criminalize animal rights activism, making it illegal to even photograph agricultural facilities from public property. The public deserves to know how animals are being raised but Trump wants to keep the truth hidden so that large corporations will continue to pay him millions of dollars. We can't sit silently by while federal laws are protecting animal abuse and preventing the free speech of activists who try to expose the truth. Sign and share the petition asking Congress to end the federal cover up of factory farms.3,749 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Direct Action Everywhere

Save EMFThe EMF Community’s goal is to save and maintain the EMF building as an affordable space for musicians and artists. The building tenants provide numerous economic benefits to Cambridge, and beyond, through paid and donated music performances, paid and donated music lessons, music engineering services, a pipeline of musical talent for local music venues, restaurants, and record stores, patronage to local businesses, and rents and homeownership tax from musicians who also reside in Cambridge. The EMF Community also richly contributes to the culture of Cambridge and the entire region, through creativity, public service, demonstration of work ethic against great odds, and community building and reflection. This community is a critical resource for the continuing development of local musicians and artists, and through them, a critical resource to the cities they serve.144 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Cambridge Artist Coalition

Sign the petition asking the California Attorney General to investigate fatal Delano ICE crashSign the petition today. A tragedy recently unfolded in the small farm worker town of Delano. The morning of March 13 Santos Hilario Garcia and Marcelina Garcia Porfecto, husband and wife farm workers, died in a car crash while fleeing ICE agents. Their six children, now without parents, are forced to fend for themselves and need your support. They are casualties of the Trump administration's targeting of hardworking immigrant farm workers who sacrifice to feed all of us. The family and community supporting them are asking you to sign the petition requesting that California Attorney General Xavier Becerra launch an investigation. The Delano police report supports the conclusion that the family's SUV was traveling at a high rate of speed while desperately trying to evade ICE agents when they lost control, hit a utility pole and their vehicle overturned on its roof. However, the police report on this fatal crash contradicts ICE agents' claims that they were not following behind the farm worker couple with their emergency lights on. It is deeply distressing that ICE agents' statements are contradicted by a surveillance video showing two ICE SUVs traveling behind the couple's vehicle with emergency lights activated, according to the Delano Police Department report. Why did the two ICE agents choose to misrepresent whether they were following the couple with their emergency lights on? And, why did ICE agents follow the couple if they not ICE targets? Despite the report, the Kern County district attorney refused to file charges against ICE. So we need to take it to the next level and ask California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to launch an investigation. Please sign the petition today! We will turn the petition in later this month.25,776 of 30,000 SignaturesCreated by Jocelyn Sherman, UFW Digital Director
