the T.R.A.N.S network strongly opposes the appointment of Mike Pompeo to Secretary of StateSecretary of State Pompeo has demonstrated his hate toward Transgender - Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual people. Pompeo now has the power to restrict the gender markers on passports of transgender people in the United States, reversing years of advocacy for the policy of acceptance of transgender people from the United States Department of State. We are demanding his immediate removal from the United States Government.135 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Jennifer Louise Lopez

Saving Ryan SliderOne of our teachers here, at the School of WeBSS, is not getting his contract renewed for reasons we as students don't see as valid. Many of the students here see him as a very important part of the community and as a role model. He is an advocate for the kids of our community and emphasizes the importance of doing what is important to them. He gives them an example to take into consideration when stepping into Adulthood358 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Adrian Salazar

President Trump: Free the Birds!The Trump administration announced that it would reverse the rule that requires all organic egg farmers to give hens access to the outdoors. The net result of this is that birds will be confined in horrifying indoor sheds where trampling, disease, and even cannibalism run rampant --and the industry will be free to market their products as organic with "outdoor access." We're asking the Trump administration to reverse this decision and support tree freedom for birds: an animal bill of rights!1,279 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Direct Action Everywhere

Tell the Senate: block torture-loving Gina Haspel from taking over the CIAI'm an U.S. Army veteran. I remember what happened at the Abu Ghraib prison -- where dozens of prisoners were beaten, tortured, or worse at the hands of our government. Some of my friends and fellow service members were actually a part of the team that shut the place down, so I'm well aware what that barbaric behavior does to a human being. Let me be clear: we can not rest so long as a torture-advocate like Gina Haspel has so much power over the CIA. Torture doesn't work. It's inhumane. Monstrous. Criminal. And not only does she actively advocate for it's use, but she carried out torture rings in Thailand then tried to cover it up! There is simply too much at stake to let Trump’s illegitimate regime further dismantle our diplomatic institutions. I know we can win this battle if we work together and take decisive action right away. This is what we’re made for.454 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Perry O'Brien

Sen. Fischer and Sasse: Stop Taking NRA Blood MoneyWe demand Nebraskan Senator Ben Sasse & Fischer donate their combined NRA contributions of $84,583 to fund gun safety work and commit to not taking another cent from the NRA. The NRA's financial hold on our Congress is overwhelming, and it is one of the primary reasons why, in the wake of national tragedies, we remain unable to pass commonsense gun laws. Enough is enough and the time to act is now. #NeverAgain67 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Indivisible Omaha

Demand Senators Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy give back or donate the combined $3,076,835 they ha...I am from Louisiana, and I will not stand for my elected officials taking NRA contributions that prevent them from considering common sense gun laws. We have to start now. We are not asking that all guns be taken away form private citizens, but automatic and semi-automatic weapons have no place in our homes. They are weapons not used for hunting or self-defense, but are made for killing mass numbers of people. We need to hold our elected officials accountable for making gun violence in the U.S. a pervasive and devastating problem. Call and write your Senators and Representatives to ask that they return their NRA funds and pass legislation for gun regulation in the U.S. We need laws that ban assault weapons among private citizens and legislation that ensures we run background checks and have a proper registration system for owning guns. It is not against the second amendment to create a culture of responsible gun owners. Sign this petition and let’s show our Senators that there are Louisianan’s who desperately want gun reform.93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Judith Champagne

Mayor Gettys: Outrageous Electric BillsThe people of Rock Hill are struggling to pay their outrageous electric bills. It is unconscionable and immoral to expect hard working individuals, most who live on limited incomes to afford electric bills that are 4 to 8 times the norm. Social responsibility is a key factor from an ethical standpoint lacking from our elected leadership. We demand a stop to this unethical business practice, and we demand a refund for over paid charges immediately.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mark Ali
