Tell Congress to increase the number of H2B visas and that it is a labor issue NOT an immigration...I have been personally effected by this issue. We could not handle the work without our H2B workers in 2017 and the company lost half of its revenue, a quarter of its customers and a valuable American exmployee. This year we are in the same position. The following link explains well my experience: http://fox8.com/2018/02/25/local-landscapers-worried-about-having-workers-this-summer/ The issue is complex and involves rules set in place by Congress. At the most the number of foreign seasonal workers would be 120,000 spread all throughout the country. My goal is to teach people that it is a labor issue - NOT an immigration issue. Please tell Congress to allow seasonal businesses to use the H2B visa by increasing the number of visas available to us. Right now we are basically in a lottery system and if we lose (by not getting the visas), we might go out of business...17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by ALLISON J MEDRANO

Demand Jeff Sessions testify before the Judiciary Committee about the firing of Andrew McCabeOn Friday night, we learned Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired Andrew McCabe -- the Deputy Director of the FBI -- just two days before he was set to retire. At this moment, we don’t know all the facts or the reasoning behind this decision, but Sessions’ and Trump's involvement in this process raise serious questions. We need answers. I am calling on Jeff Sessions to testify before the Judiciary Committee to answer questions on the firing of McCabe. He must explain the Department of Justice’s process and whether this is an attempt to target, punish, or silence those investigating Russia and the Trump campaign. On Saturday morning, one of Trump’s attorneys used McCabe’s firing to call for an end to the Russia investigation and the firing of Bob Mueller. That’s unacceptable and deeply dangerous. We can't allow partisan or personal influence to taint the Russia investigation or undermine the hard work of our law enforcement officials. That’s why we have to make our voices heard now and demand Sessions testify next week.45,919 of 50,000 SignaturesCreated by Senator Kamala Harris

Restore Andrew McCabe's Pension!I would like to see an end of these irrational and petty attacks against officials in our government who do not agree with the president or his policies. These schoolyard bullying tactics are not becoming of our president, our government or America in general. This is NOT what makes America Great! Andrew McCabe worked 21 years for the FBI and he did everything in his power to make this country safe and secure and to preserve the America and the American values that the FBI was designed to preserve. It is NOT ACCEPTABLE that he be punished in such an obviously cruel and needlessly vindictive way. We, the undersigned demand that his full retirement benefits be returned to him immediately and in full!6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by D. Aaron Freed

Repeal 3-5 am no parking in EdgewoodUnfortunately, the Edgewood borough has been discriminating against me and I've had to create this petition which will be followed by a discrimination Lawsuit and civil case to get money back plus towing fees. In addition I will be filing a freedom of information act request for amount of money the Chief Messina fraudulently took from residents and said residents were never paid back or notified.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by GEORGE HARITOS

Abolish Pink TaxThis petition is to bring this situation to the attention of the US Senate by showing how many people this affects and/or feel strongly about ending this taxation. I'm a young woman who has been getting a menstrual cycle for the past five years and will continue to do so till I go through menopause. A menstrual occurs naturally for every woman, therefore, the products that aid in menstruation are a necessity, and in the United States a necessity product is not subject to tax. Stand up for all women and end this matter now408 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Jolyssa Perales

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
