An undocumented immigrant who was recently arrested and accused of a felony had been released after previous arrests by the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. Attorney General Jeff Sessions blamed Sheriff Reese for releasing him instead of holding him until ICE could detain him. But to do so would have been illegal: Sheriff Reese needed a court-issued criminal warrant to proceed, but received only a civil detainer, which has no legal standing in Oregon. In their war on immigrants, the DOJ and ICE are demanding that counties and states break their own laws. Thanks, Sheriff Reese, for refusing to detain immigrants unlawfully.

I am a public school teacher in an inner-city school district. Betsy DeVos has no background in public education, ignorance of students will disabilities, and her voucher stance will target the rich. The majority of students attend public schools --- who will be a voice for their education and needs?

The FCC is planning to change the protections in order to give the Internet Service Providers more control over the way we use our internet.

I almost missed the game yesterday and this social injustice must stop. As men we are constantly bombarded with events that are designed to keep us from enjoying football. That is unconstitutional. As husbands that love our wives, we get put in a very uncomfortable position, and have to tag along at these unconstitutional events. Roll tide, and thank you in advance

In the aftermath of the hate and bigotry seen in communities near and far, it is appropriate for Canandaigua publicly reject hate and bigotry and affirm its commitment to inclusion, equity and justice. Below is the resolution we are petitioning the Canandaigua City Council and Canandaigua Town Board to adopt: A RESOLUTION REJECTING HATE AND BIGOTRY In the aftermath of the hate and bigotry seen in Charlottesville, Virginia and in many communities across our country, it is appropriate for the City and Town of Canandaigua to emphatically state that such beliefs are not only wrong but ethically, morally, and criminally reprehensible. Canandaigua stands for inclusion, equity, and justice. We condemn racism, xenophobia, sexism, and homophobia in rhetoric or action. Hateful acts, bigotry, and intimidation are in direct opposition to the principles of respect, dignity, and fairness that our community values and embraces. Canandaigua is a community that welcomes and recognizes the rights of all individuals to live peacefully and with dignity -- free from discrimination based on ethnicity, national origin, faith, sexuality, gender identity, physical/mental abilities, socio-economic status or immigration status. We believe in the public sector for the public good. Advancing equity and inclusion is critical to the success of the Canandaigua community and our nation as a whole. Therefore, be it resolved that Canandaigua condemns acts of hate, bigotry, and intimidation, whether verbal, written, or physical. We will defend of the rights of all people, and remain steadfast and vigorous in condemning all forms of hate and bigotry. Be it further resolved that the City and Town of Canandaigua will be proactive in making our services and programs accessible and open to all individuals, and protecting the rights of our citizens to live, work, and play in a safe, inclusive, and welcoming Canandaigua community.

I am starting this petition because credit worthiness impacts many facets of all of our lives per Attorney General Eric Schneiderman from New York State. It not only impacts whether you can obtain a loan, but also how much you can borrow, what your interest rate will be, if you have to place a deposit for utilities, insurance rates, whether you can rent an apartment, employment opportunities and more. This is a serious loss of personal information that has impacted more than half of the American public and can for years to come.

Medicare For All would make quality, affordable healthcare available to everyone. Everyone is covered. Nobody goes broke paying a medical bill. Families don’t have to bear the costs of heartbreaking medical disasters on their own. We should not be at the mercy of private insurance companies that profit by denying care.

About legalizing a plant that helps people with all kinds of problems. I have used opioids for the severe pain that I am in all the time. They do not work, they are very expensive, very addicting, and they kill. People can get off of these deadly meds if they could use cannabis. Big Pharma and the people that buy into it are killing us. Please Free the cannabis.

Last month, a federal court ordered the North Carolina General Assembly to redraw racially-gerrymandered legislative districts by 2017. But the General Assembly has yet to reveal the plans to the public.

If Bayer and Monsanto's merger goes through, the new company would be the world’s largest vegetable seed company. It would control seeds for many of the crops we eat regularly, like broccoli, carrots, and onions. In short, we’d be giving a single corporation unprecedented control of our food supply. We can’t let the future of our food system be handed over to Bayer and Monsanto. Help stop the Bayer-Monsanto merger: Take action NOW!

Trump has nominated 27 federal judges in his first six months. And these nominees have a history of championing the causes of right-wing extremists -- from opposing affirmative action to claiming President Obama was not born in the U.S. If these nominees are confirmed, they could shred our civil rights and environmental protections for decades to come. We need your help to stop them! Sign the petition to the Senate Judiciary Committee: Stop Trump from stacking the courts with extremist judges!

Darden -- the owner of Olive Garden -- is still refusing to adopt a responsible policy to protect public health by limiting the use of antibiotics by its meat suppliers. Those antibiotics get into our food supply. They fuel the rise of antibiotic-resistant infections in people -- one of our nation's leading public health threats. In two weeks, Darden’s shareholders will vote on a proposal to prohibit its suppliers from giving antibiotics to animals that are not sick. We need your help to ramp up pressure on Darden to act! Tell the owner of Olive Garden: Stop serving meat that is raised with routine antibiotics!
