I do not support reversing the ACA.

The effects of climate change are obvious at this point and is a nightmare come to life. A major contributor to the devastation we are currently seeing is from the fossil fuel emitions being released by about 1.2 BILLION gas powered vehicles throughout the world. The U.S. alone has about 253 MILLION gas powered vehicles contributing to the widespread damage to our environment. We must act immediately to save our world for future generations to come. We must join the rest of the major countries of the world by taking similar action.

Tax reform should start at the top and not cast undue burden on the bottom.

Last year, Donald Trump said he would "love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now, he's fired.'" And recently, he doubled down and is calling for them to be deported!? Trump continues to attack professional athletes who choose to express their beliefs when they are different than his own. The rights of every American are threatened by our president's unconstitutional acts.

Maria Mendoza-Sanchez is a well-known and loved oncology nurse. She and her husband, Eusebio, moved to the United States 23 years ago and have raised their children here, contributed to our country, and never broken any laws. But because of our broken immigration system in which there’s not even a line to stand in to get legal status, Maria and her husband have been unfairly cast out of our country as their children stay behind. President Trump said that his administration would only round up people who have broken laws, but Maria Mendoza-Sanchez is a trained oncology nurse, has never broken a law, and is a beloved community member. Trump lied and now the United States is unfairly kicking out highly qualified cancer nurses like Maria at a time the country is facing a severe nursing shortage. Sen. Dianne Feinstein said in a prepared statement, “This is a travesty, plain and simple, and evidence that Donald Trump’s immigration ‎policy is nothing more than a hateful deportation program targeting law-abiding families. It’s shameful and stands against the very ideals upon which this country was founded.” She has introduced a bill that would provide relief for the Mendoza-Sanchez family, giving them permanent resident status. Sign on now in support of this bill and help reunite the Mendoza-Sanchez family.

On Monday September 18, 2017, the Decatur City Commission voted unanimously to adopt a resolution that, among other things, condemns white supremacy. The City can now put that condemnation to action by passing a non-detainer policy whereby local law enforcement will not prolong the detention of an immigrant per request of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) without a judicially issued warrant. Six counties and cities around metro Atlanta, including DeKalb County, already have resolutions and policies limiting collaboration with ICE. However, Decatur has yet to act. In the wake of Trump’s revocation of President Obama’s EO granting Deferred Action to Childhood Arrivals (DACA), the Atlanta City Council voted overwhelmingly to adopt a non-detainer policy drafted by Project South, the Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights, and the Georgia Not1More Coalition. Now it’s time for Decatur to do the same. Members of the Georgia Not1More Coalition provided Decatur City Mayor Patti Garrett and Decatur City Manager Peggy Merriss a similar Non-Detainer policy over three months ago and yet the City has made no affirmative steps to adopt it. This is unacceptable. As our immigrant friends and neighbors live in fear of ICE raids and arrests we must show our love and support for them by urging the City Commission to adopt the resolution below, drafted and presented to the Decatur City Mayor and City Manager by Project South, the Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights, and the Georgia Not1More Coalition, which is in compliance with current state and federal law. The City needs to adopt this policy as a statement of support to our immigrant friends and neighbors, who live in fear of ICE coming into their homes, places of work and worship, brutalizing them and their families and communities. If this City truly believes it is a Welcoming City and a Compassionate City, then it is time for them stand behind their words and adopt this resolution. Otherwise the resolutions declaring the City as Welcoming and Compassionate are empty. Based on the foregoing, we, the signers of this petition, demand that the City of Decatur and the City Police of Decatur adopt the following non-detainer policy: The Decatur Police Department shall not detain or extend the detention of any individual at the request of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) unless ICE first presents the Decatur Police Department with a judicially issued warrant authorizing such detention. In particular, Decatur Police Department officials shall not arrest, detain, extend the detention of, transfer custody of, or transport anyone solely on the basis of an immigration detainer or an administrative immigration warrant, including an administrative immigration warrant in the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database. At no time may the Decatur Police Department detain a subject for additional time beyond when the criminal matter allows release solely to notify ICE of the subject’s release or to facilitate transfer to ICE. The Decatur Police Department shall not treat a detainer or request for notification as an indication that an individual is unlawfully present.Prior to any investigative interview of an individual in Decatur Police Department’s custody, ICE must notify the subject inmate’s attorney, provide a reasonable opportunity for counsel to be present during the interview, and certify to the Decatur Police Department that this notice and opportunity has occurred. Any person who alleges a violation of this policy may file a written complaint for investigation with the Decatur Police Department and with the internal complaints division of the Decatur Police Department.

By watching Fox Broadcasting or Fox channels you are supporting 21st Century Fox which owns FoxNews. FoxNews commentators act like newsmen. Giving misleading information, half truths and is the defacto proganda arm for President Trump and the GOP. STOP THE BIASED PROPAGANDA. BOYCOTT THEM!

The Recovery community needs access to supportive housing environments. These environments should have standards and have assistance from public funding sources.

Partaking in pony rides or petting zoos is completely unnecessary, especially when there are plenty of other fun activities providing humane options for children to interact with wild animals. Help them understand the importance of treating all animals with respect and encourage participation in activities that help animals rather than harm them.

For public health, the health of pollinators & other insects, & the health of all other critters & the environment.

I am a climate activist in NH. Climate change is destroying lives, health, communities and economies and may end humanity in our grandchildren's lives. We have waited too long to do something about it already and, according to recent scientific reports and statements, are fast running out of time. Responsible corporations, like citizens, must become louder and more demanding of immediate, responsive action, and what better corporation is there to lead the charge than a giant like Amazon?

Recently, Rosa Maria Hernandez was freed, after our national outrage and the #FreeRosa campaign forced Border Patrol to allow her to return to her parents. But the truth is, every day families in places like Corpus Christi, Texas, are either avoiding taking their sick kids to the hospital or dealing with inhumane separation as a result of an out-of-control enforcement system that forces ambulances to stop at immigration checkpoints and arrests sick family members. At Driscoll Children's Hospital, in Corpus Christi, Texas, two parents were arrested by Customs and Border Patrol while waiting for a critical operation on their two-month old son. Irma and Oscar Sanchez, were told that they would travel outside their residential area to the children's hospital two hours away to have the operation performed on their son, Isaac. But, it meant they would need to travel through a border patrol checkpoint. And after crossing through the checkpoint in an ambulance with their son who was getting intravenous fluids and had a tube in his stomach, they were "escorted" to hospital only to be arrested one-by-one and placed in deportation proceedings. Months later, ten-year-old Rosa Maria Hernandez was detained, 150 miles away from her parents, after Border Patrol was alerted while she was on her way to a life-saving gallbladder surgery. Border Patrol agents allowed Rosa Maria to continue to Driscoll Children's Hospital but followed the ambulance the rest of the way there, then waited outside her room until she was released from the hospital. This is horrific and inhumane. The Border Patrol has been violating many of its own guidelines around avoiding sensitive places like hospitals and keeping children and families together whenever possible, and the public deserves assurance that they will stop. Border Patrol and the Department of Homeland Security must stop making immigration arrests at sensitive locations, including ambulances and emergency vehicles going through Border Patrol checkpoints, hospitals, schools, churches, public demonstrations, and more.
