Sierra Club: stop litteringThe Sierra Club sent me a renewal request, enclosing a plastic card and card-surround that is neither recyclable nor biodegradable. This organization should be setting an example of the minimal use of petroleum-based material.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Barbara Jensen

Save our WaterSafe drinking water is a necessity of a healthy life, without which the ripple effect can carry on for generations if it continues to be ignored. The financial damage should not be ignored. Studies have shown, that the environment in which citizens live, greatly affects salary, insurance premiums, employment, education, all on a personal level, but it affects the insurance premiums for the Village as a whole.49 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cat

Reinstate McCabeI am outraged that a public servant with great integrity and honor has been fired TWO days before he was to receive his pension simply because of the President's injured ego and his desire to further obstruct justice in the Russian investigation.205 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Christine Shannon

Facebook Must Notify Users Who Had Data Exploited By Cambridge AnalyticaIt is crucial that the American people understand the role of technology platforms and data firms such as Cambridge Analytica in shaping public opinion and targeting individuals with highly personalized messaging, and what that means for democracy. Facebook has a duty to the American people to volunteer this information to its users. We must demand more from Facebook and its CEO, Mark Zuckerberg.21,311 of 25,000 SignaturesCreated by Justin Hendrix

Ban Bump Stocks & Ghost Guns in ConnecticutMy neighbor was the Sandy Hook shooter. Just Imagine if he used bump stocks on his AR-15 on that tragic day on December 14, 2012 when he murdered 20 children and six educators. The Las Vegas shooter used bump stocks to convert his semiautomatic rifles to function as automatic weapons to murder 58 people and wound 500 others. The Las Vegas shooting was the deadliest in modern U.S. history. Ghost guns are untraceable homemade guns. In November, a Northern California man, who was prohibited from possessing firearms because of a restraining order, killed five people in a rampage using semiautomatic rifles that he made himself. In 2016, a Baltimore man fired at police with a homemade AR-15. In 2013, a Santa Monica shooter used a ghost gun in his shooting spree that killed five. Ghost guns appeal to those who cannot legally purchase firearms. Until Congress bans bump stocks and ghost guns, Connecticut lawmakers must act now to protect their constituents.2,251 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Newtown Action Alliance

Stop the Tower on the RiverThe Riverside and North Riverside neighborhoods repeatedly come together to protect our historic neighborhoods from business encroachment that would negatively impact the aesthetic of our historic neighborhoods, lower property values and invite further development within the river corridors. With the sole exception of David Foster, who is familiar with the aesthetic and spirit of the neighborhood, the MAPC voted in favor of the Conditional Use Permit made by Central Plains Development, Greg Ferris Consulting, and APC Towers, Raleigh, NC. However, our DAB, also intimately knowledgeable about Riverside/North Riverside, voted to not recommend approval. We ask that T-Mobile explore collocation on existing towers, micro-towers on electric poles or alternative locations that would be less egregious. This tower does not need to be erected at the entrance to the historic Riverside neighborhoods. We plead with our City Council to not allow one business-owner, his broker and an out-of-state investor to desecrate our riverbank and forever change the entrance to the city's historic neighborhoods along the Little Arkansas River. A 110-foot cell phone tower would have an undue effect on the health, safety, and welfare of the community as they tie to the aesthetics of the Riverside neighborhoods.616 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Madeline McCullough
