  • Whole Foods: Free the Birds!
    Direct Action Everywhere (DxE) recently investigated Mary’s Free Range Chicken, a celebrated Whole Foods chicken supplier. Despite being aggressively marketed as “free range”, 24-hour surveillance of the farm showed that chickens were never given access to the outdoors. In addition, investigators found intense confinement, which caused birds to trample each other and prevented many from reaching food or water. During the investigation, DxE found a hen who was blind and struggling to stand. They rescued her and named her Sophie. While her eye eventually had to be removed, Sophie recovered and now lives happily at a sanctuary. Whole Foods’ marketing leads people to believe that animals like Sophie live happy and free lives on their farms. Sign the petition and ask Whole Foods to stop this fraudulent marketing and give the animals true freedom by sending them to sanctuary.

  • Hack Proof Elections
    Neither Democrats nor Republicans will ever secure electronic voting computers against foreign or domestic hackers. Both parties benefit from hacked elections. If paper ballots cost more, the expense is more than worth it.

  • Election fraud is about thousands of ads bought by Russian trolls!
    I don't want my voting record tracked, exposed to hackers, speculation and data manipulation. I don't want others turning away from their civic duty of voting because of lost privacy in the voting booth or being subjected to extreme vetting. Voting should be encouraged, as it is the most important aspect of retaining our democracy.

  • We love culver city farmer's market as it is right now
    Culver city farmer's market has been open for over 15 years. This staple in farmer's market has always hosted a diversity of vendors. From fruits and veggies, flowers to hot food, deserts, snacks and crafters. We as crafters offer an array of healthy alternative products. From bath and beauty products to clothes , jewelry and baskets. This made the market unique and helped the community to be health conscious from what they eat to what they put on their bodies. We are having a new market management company that wants to exclusively offer farm products. That mean not only it will rob the Culver City community of their access to much needed products, but will cost us crafters and vendors a percentage of our income. Indeed some us crafters and non agricultural vendors have been in the market for over a decade and will be left scrambling to find a supplemental income to replace our loss of revenues. We were given only 3 weeks notice to vacate. We don't think it's fair to the community or the vendors. We want the city council to review their vote and ask the new management company to allow us to stay in the market or at least until December. This will give us ample time to find a replacement market. Best regards.

  • Stop the New York State Workers' Comp Board from slashing worker protections and injury payments
    We demand that the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board withdraw its new set of harmful proposals. Without any regard for injured workers – or medical science – the Board has issued cost-cutting and protection-slashing guidelines that will strip already weak protections and render workers’ comp impossible for many of New York’s injured workers, at a time when they need support the most. With these proposals, the Workers’ Compensation Board would: - Open the door for doctors, insurance companies, and employers to mistreat already injured workers. The proposal impacts injured workers vulnerable to various forms of discrimination, bias, and potential abuse by giving company doctors power to suspend care. With this new “insult to injury rule” already injured workers will not be allowed unbiased medical care and will be forced to go to a company-assigned doctor who can perform any exam or ask any question—regardless of relevance to a person’s injury. If the company doctor then decides that that worker did not “fully cooperate” with the exam, the doctor can recommend a suspension of benefits and care. - Slash protections by eliminating injury payments for a number of injuries to workers already struggling to make ends meet. Fractures, ligament and tendon tears, dislocated patellas – the list goes on and on of painful life-altering injuries to the body that would be eliminated from any payment under the comp system. The proposals also slash vital injury payments for a number of impairments associated with a workers’ ability to fully extend their arms and legs, cutting benefits by up to 97% for some injuries. - Illegally seize the power of the legislature to determine the nature of medical impairment, eliminating accountability and transparency and spelling doom for Workers Comp in New York State. This proposal grants the Board sweeping authority to sidestep the law to adjust claims, regardless of what the legislation guarantees. Workers’ rights are under attack all over the country, and workers’ safety is being threatened by the slashing of regulations, but New York has the choice to resist being part of the anti-worker wave. We demand that the Board withdraw these anti-worker proposals and focus on how to improve the comp system and the lives of injured workers who need support now more than ever.

  • Tell Secretary DeVos: Protect survivors of sexual assault.
    Secretary DeVos’ recent decision to revoke key Title IX protections for survivors of sexual assault sends a dangerous signal to assailants that their crimes will be ignored, jeopardizes the safety of students in America, and makes it harder for survivors to get justice.

  • Boycott Pizza Hut for irma employee evacuation
    The petition is about Pizza Hut claiming their employees couldn't evacuate from the hurricane on Friday they had to evacuate 24 hours in advance. So if hurricane we're to hit Tuesday they couldn't leave Friday to get out of harms way. They had to leave Sunday. Pizza Hut is a job that pays low wages. No ones life is worth $10 an hour Hut Pizza Hut. Bad move that wasn't the managers fault I'm sure it was corporates fault. They blame the manager. They could handle the bad publicity and had to place blame.
