For many years, we, the students of North Star Academy, have had to consume subpar lunches. We work incredibly hard and deserve a proper lunch to help us better focus in school.

Americans demand the resignation of Donald J Trump, president of the United States.He is using his position and abusing his power to interfere in the dept of the DOJ/FBI by sending his personal lawyer Emmit Flood and Chief of staff John Kelly to a classified briefing partisan meeting in an attempt to obstruct justice We thereby demand Donal J Trump resign immediately in order to save or democracy

Living in a non-smoking apartment complex is nice, but that only applies to inside the apartments; this does not stop people from sitting and smoking directly outside of their doors where the wind can carry that smoke inside your apartment. Many towns across the nation have implemented shared space rulings that limit smoking to designated areas so non-smokers are not forced to breath in second-hand and sidestream smoke. We hope that Phoenixville would implement a similar public health ordinance.

The Trump administration is about to literally BAN the word abortion from the doctor's office. For clinics and hospitals that accept dollars from the Title X program--the nation's program for affordable birth control and reproductive health care--doctors, nurses, and other health care providers would be banned from providing, counseling on, or referring any patient for an abortion. Even if it was needed to protect a woman's health or save her life. Even if she asked. It gets worse. This doesn't just impact women who need abortion. If clinics refuse to comply with this proposed rule, the government will stop reimbursing them for treating patients who cannot pay. Eventually, that could shutter a clinic, ending services like birth control, cervical and breast cancer screening, and HIV testing for the entire community. This can be devastating--more than half of Planned Parenthood clinics are in rural or medically underserved areas where there are few or no other options for essential women's health care. But we can defeat this. The Trump administration has backed off harmful rule changes before, such as allowing employers to steal workers' tips--and it is accepting comments on the new proposal. If we generate fast, widespread outrage, we can force the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to back down.

It's unAmerican.

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos wants to turn school teachers and principals into ICE agents. As women, as mothers, we will not stand idly by as DeVos tries to put millions of school children in harm’s way. Sign on to send DeVos a rotten apple to tell her that schools should be learning centers -- not deportation traps. Millions of students throughout the country are already afraid to go to school. Decades of discrimination and criminalization of students of color have created a school to prison pipeline that threatens the security of Black and Brown students. An epidemic of mass shootings has filled our schools with fear. But DeVos wants to make schools even less safe for our kids by encouraging teachers and principals to report undocumented students to ICE. The Supreme Court has made it clear that every child in the United States, regardless of their immigration status, has the right to an education. Make no mistake, DeVos’ proposal is unconstitutional and violates the law. But even worse than that? It endangers the safety of millions of our students at a time when our nation’s highest education officer should be doing everything she can to make schools safer for our kids. Add your name and we will deliver your message along with a rotten apple to DeVos’ office next week.

This year’s bee die-off numbers just came out, and the news isn’t good. Bees are still dying at alarming rates. And it’s largely due to bee-killing neonicotinoid pesticides. If we want to stop the massive bee losses, we need to get these pesticides out of our food system. Kroger plays a key role in this fight. It could stop selling food grown with toxic pesticides. But we need YOU to help make that happen!

Little Silver contributes nearly 22 million in tax dollars to the state of NJ, but receives less than $400,000 annually for our schools. 94.3% of our district’s budget comes from our local tax base. Despite our high property taxes, to meet the 2018-2019 budget, the district was forced to cut two teaching positions, one administrative position and one support staff member. Three additional teaching positions and one support staff position were reduced to part-time. The health of our schools affects every resident of Little Silver. We need our legislators to IMMEDIATELY reform the funding process for school districts like Little Silver.

Direct Action Everywhere has investigated numerous supposedly "humane" farms supplying to Berkeley grocery stores like Whole Foods and documented filth, disease, extreme crowding, and cannibalism among the distressed animals. Consumers deserve to know that even "organic" dairy farms separate mothers and their babies immediately after birth, that "humane" egg farms can legally kill male chicks by throwing them into a grinding machine alive, and that behind the pretty images on the packaging, animals are being tortured for the products sold in Berkeley stores. We are calling upon the city of Berkeley to pass a first-of-its-kind consumer transparency law, requiring warning labels on all animal products sold in Berkeley.

Sexual abuse/molestation occurs whenever one person dominates and exploits another by means of sexual activity or suggestion. Any sexual act, overt or covert, between a child and an adult through seduction or coercion. Numbers are disturbing when it comes to child molestation/sexual abuse cases here in Iowa that are not facing appropriate prison time due to the laws we have in place. We the citizens of Iowa are asking for our State legislators to put a bill in place to bring harsher punishment and stiffer penalties when it comes to these type of predators! laws that continue to require to register as a sex offender and require life long probation and ankle monitoring . as well as a life long no contact order in place for victim. My granddaughter was sexually molested from ages 2 to 6 years old. evidence was clear and founded by DHS as well as local law enforcement. and confession of guilt by her grandfather Dean Hilpipre under oath in Court. He was charged with two counts of sexual abuse 2nd degree. which is a mandatory sentence of 25 years each count. Assistant county attorneys negotiated a lesser charge that ultimately ended with 5 years probation and 5 years no contact order! This needs to change! NO MORE PLEA DEALS FOR CHILD MOLESTERS!

Mental health education is not mandatory in Florida schools in spite of the well- documented need. Educating our youth on facts and behaviors will encourage open discussion and promote a greater understanding of mental health.
