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

Make MadDog293 Executive DirectorI got fired from a ROBLOX group and sign this petition if you think I should get my job back. The current Executive Director is very unfit and he talked very bad about the group. He has built many things for the group and they won't get rid of it. Sign this petition if Matthew should get his job back.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matt

Release Alejandra PablosAlejandra's case is complicated. As a young person she was arrested and convicted of several charges, including Driving Under the Influence and possession of drug paraphernalia, some of which were felonies under Arizona state law. In 2011, after she complied with the orders from the court, she spent 2 years at the Eloy Detention Center in Southern Arizona, lost her residency, and was placed in deportation proceedings. But since Alejandra was released from detention she has worked to advocate for human and civil rights, dedicating her life to organizing against the attacks on immigrant rights and fighting for reproductive rights. As part of her local organizing, in early January of this year, as Alejandra was leading chants at a peaceful protest in Virginia outside of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), she was singled out and detained by DHS agents. Although she was released, this flagged her case. When Alejandra showed up to her check-in with ICE in Tucson, she was taken into custody and not allowed to pay a bond. Alejandra is a nationally recognized immigrant rights and reproductive rights, activist. She works as a Field Coordinator for the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, where she organizes to raise the voices of Latinas in Virginia for policy change at all levels of government on issues that impact their lives, women’s health care, and other social justice issues. Alejandra has been a staunch advocate for immigration reform and mass incarceration. She is a member of Mijente, a national political Latinx organization, and has worked with many immigrant rights and prison abolition organizers throughout the country.359 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Jacinta Gonzalez

We want Moses returned to the Charlevoix High School and his classmates!It is the continuation of our request to bring our special need son back to the school and classmates he was with for five years. He is now in a non-inclusive program (totally different) and we believe wrong and harmful to him. He is not with the classmates and non-disabled peers (per the IDEA) and they have him on a bus for one hour and twenty minutes one way,165 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Toni R Jakubowski

Missouri Lawmakers: Save DMH Regional Center Services for Our ChildrenMy family will be personally impacted by this change in qualifying for DMH Regional Center case management and services. Our case manager has been with us for 20 years and knows my son's needs extremely well. Like many Missouri families, we are in danger of losing our case manager and the services that my son currently has because we will not qualify for Medicaid (which is a new requirement this year). I advocate for many families in Missouri and they are very concerned about losing this valuable resource. Some families only have their Regional case manager to advocate for their child. Now, they will be with no one. Case managers will only be allowed to work with Medicaid families and anyone else will be stripped of their case management and redirected to a "referral" phone contact that won't know their child and can only provide contact information for outside resources. The personal interaction between case managers and families will be gone. And Regional Center funding for these services will be gone as well.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cate Hall
