• Secretary Carson: Don't Betray MLK's Legacy by Changing HUD's Mission
    50 years ago, spurred to action by the assassination of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Congress passed the Fair Housing Act and gave the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) the responsibility of enforcing anti-discrimination and segregation in housing. Now, Secretary Carson is following up his actions to undermine fair housing by trying to change HUD's mission to remove language that states their commitment to ending discrimination and for creating affordable housing for all. Secretary Carson works for us, the People, and HUD's mission is his job description. Sign on now to tell Secretary Carson that we aren't going to go along with him moving the goal posts on his duties. The millions of people who rely on HUD and the tens of millions more who qualify for assistance need him to do the job he was hired to do!

  • Restore ban on importing elephant trophies
    A Remington Research Group poll in December 2017 found that a large majority of Americans favor banning imports of elephant and lion trophies, 78% to 15%. By political party, 76 percent of Republicans, 84 percent of Democrats, and 75 percent of non-partisan voters favor a ban. President Trump and Secretary Zinke need to listen to the American people!

  • Make New Jersey a Sanctuary State: protect law-abiding immigrants from deportation
    Rather than targeting criminals, as promised, Trump has empowered ICE to aggressively stalk and detain any law-abiding hard-working immigrant. Tearing families apart is not a humane immigration policy. In addition to being cruel, it amounts to racial profiling, and makes us less safe by discouraging our immigrant neighbors from reporting crime and fully engaging in our communities because of fear of deportation. NJ should follow California's lead and be a Sanctuary State.

  • Stop Black mail or Delta Airlines
    I am just a common citizen who sees the recent decision by the Georgia legislature as another attempt to force Delta and other businesses (WATCH OUT for Amazon's consideration to move to Georgia!), to act against the best interests of their stockholders and the public at large.

    Policymakers should take steps to improve students' access to existing federal programs, including expanding the SNAP eligibility requirements for college students. Almost as bad as the hunger itself is the stress that you're going to be hungry. Not being able to eat correctly makes it a struggle. Many students report that It is hard to study and focus after carrying a full load and working.

  • Cleaner Community
    As a civic action project for our government class, we plan to make community places cleaner. Through other student's studies here at Athens high school, we noticed there was a large amount of plastic bottles littered in our community parks, so, adding recycle and trash bins will benefit the environment and help keep public places clean.
