In order to protect children from family abductions, by protecting equal parental authority - affirming that parental authority is exercised jointly.

Due to recent events in Charlottesville, and the current divisive political climate, People of Color need to be represented and showcased more in Walt Disney World, and all forms of entertainment. This petition is to bring Moana, Disney's only Polynesian Princess, back to Walt Disney World for meet and greets. The movie was a wild success, and the character extremely beloved. Moana is becoming an international symbol of hope for all ages, and an icon for modern feminism. She deserves to be present in Walt Disney World. Our sons and daughters look up to her and want to meet her when they arrive to the happiest place on earth. #BringBackMoana

Since it's conception, USAG (USA Gymnastics) has put the welfare of its athletes second to competition results and revenues. Failure from the board of directors and the administration to protect their athletes can no longer be tolerated. Continued claims of ignorance and the willingness to ignore allegations of misconduct in all forms has been encouraged by the board and administration for far too long. Fans, athletes, coaches, and sports enthusiasts have had enough. A true culture change must happen within USA Gymnastics and the resignation of Steve Penny does not go far enough. We are demanding the removal of board chairman Paul Parilla, vice chairman Jay Binder and treasurer Bitsy Kelley to begin the restructuring and rebuilding of a board that puts the welfare of its members ahead of personal gains.

We are children's advocates deeply concerned about the political attacks on children, people with disabilities, low-income people, seniors and minorities. When Congress tried to dismantle the ACA, the American people stood up and put a stop to it. The Trump Administration must get the message. #ProtectOurCare

When Donald Trump came to the defense of white supremacists and Neo-Nazis, he crossed a threshold from which he can't return. Republicans like Rick Baker must disavow Donald Trump immediately. Rick Baker's refusal to challenge Donald Trump is nothing new. Baker has never once condemned Trump for any of his statements--from the outset of Trump's campaign to this very day. However, Trump's most recent remarks stating that there were "many fine people" among the white supremacists and Neo-Nazis who converged on Charlottesville was beyond the pale. Rick Baker must disavow Donald Trump's defense of white supremacists. If Rick Baker won't stand up to Donald Trump when he defends Neo-Nazis, at what point will Rick Baker be willing to tell our President that he is wrong? Or will Rick Baker stay silent on these issues at the behest of his GOP donors?

We have all been affected by the threats and lies this man spews out daily. There should not be a public forum for his abusiveness and violence. He should be held to the same set of rules all others are in any medium.

Capitulating to his generals, President Trump has agreed to send thousands of more American soldiers to Afghanistan, even though experts agree that the war in Afghanistan is unwinnable. [1] The only realistic alternative to endless war in Afghanistan is a negotiated peace that includes all the major Afghan factions and all the neighboring countries that are supporting major Afghan factions in the Afghan civil war, including Pakistan, India, Iran, and Russia. The Obama and Bush Administrations never seriously pursued a negotiated peace. So far, the Trump Administration is simply continuing the Bush-Obama policy of adding just enough American soldiers to prevent the Taliban from completely taking over Afghanistan, without doing anything diplomatically and politically to end the war. [2] The strategy of trying to be more patient than the Taliban is almost certainly doomed to fail in the future as it has in the past. People fighting in their own country are almost always more patient than foreign soldiers. Urge your Representative and Senators to press the Trump Administration to commit to sustained diplomacy to end the war in Afghanistan by signing our petition.

Tax payers are paying to much for Trumps constant personal travel to his own properties. The secret service has already spent their 2017 budget and will be asking Congress for more money.

Trump is woefully inadequate as "leader of the free world." He is a threat to our democracy. While causing chaos he is dismantling US diplomacy around the world, environmental protections, health care, social programs, public education, and much more as he embraces bigotry and hate.

Muslim women are being harassed, laughed at, put down, and in some cases denied the right to wear the hijab. Make a special day to celebrate the religious freedom we all have and stop the hate and fear.

I can't tell you how aghast I was when I saw MSNBC allow a Brietbart guy on two times a few days ago (and that is just what I caught that one day.) Racists, conspiracy theorists, and white supremacists should not be allowed to spew their garbage on national media.

Trump and EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt are trying to roll back the Clean Water Rule. This rule protects small streams that feed out drinking water sources. These are common-sense safeguards for our water. The EPA wants to know what you think about this attack. We need you to speak up NOW! Help us reach 35,000 comments: Don't let polluters destroy our drinking water, streams and wetlands!
