The Endangered Species Act is helping to save more than 1,600 U.S. plants, fish, and animal species from extinction so they will continue to be a part of our children's and grandchildren's worlds. The Endangered Species Act has a whopping 99 percent success record at preventing the extinction of listed species. It helped to prevent the extinction of our nation's symbol, the bald eagle, the grizzly bear, gray whale, peregrine falcon, and many other species. It is a critical tool in ensuring that the nation we leave for our children is not one without the plants, fish, and animals that we share space with today. We must maintain the Endangered Species Act in its current form and oppose any attempts to weaken, update, modernize, or reauthorize this vital conservation law. Tell Congress to stop these bill which would transfer Endangered Species Act listing decisions from scientists to politicians, legislatively delist wolves, and block courts from reviewing these actions.

BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT JOHN TRUDELL IS ONE OF THE GREAT ACTIVISTS FROM THE 20TH CENTURY HE PROTESTED WITH MARTIN LUTHER KING AND MALCOM X , AND LEAD THE PEADEFUL PROTEST ON THE ISLAND OF ALCATRAZ. THE MAN'S ACCOMPLISHMENT'S SHOULD BE CELEBRATED. HE SAVED THOUSANDS OF CANCER PATIENTS CAUSE OF HIS ACTS IN FORMING THE HEMPSTEAD PROJECT AND GOT MEDICAL WEED FOR THOSE BACK IN THE 80'S LONG BEFORE WEED WAS NEVER EVEN LEGAL. ARGUING FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH THERE DOCTORS PRESENT TO HAVE THEM GET THE WEED THEY NEEDED.

Republican Senators David Perdue and Tom Cotton have introduced legislation that viciously attacks our family-based legal immigration system. Backed by President Trump, the RAISE Act aims to cut legal immigration of extended family members by half – in addition to slashing the number of refugees we accept and eliminating the diversity visa lottery. This is an extremist proposal that would prevent families from reuniting and go against our nation’s core values. Stand with National Immigration Law Center and urge Congress to vote against the RAISE Act.

African American History started before slavery , cotton and sugar cane, there should be a curriculum established that will arouse the pride and self-esteem of our African American students in the Haywood County Schools.

The ability to unleash nuclear weapons is the ability to initiate a causal reaction in which billions of people could die, one that would threaten the very existence of the world as we know it. The initial blasts would kill indiscriminately, and the fallout from radiation would kill infinitely more. We need only look to our own history for the lesson of these weapons: they possess far greater power than any man should ever yield. The wounds of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are far from healed, their scars a eulogy for this very day. Moreover, we are not talking about any man - we are talking about Donald J. Trump: a man who has demonstrated, with stunning consistency, a complete and total shutdown of critical thinking capacities. A bipartisan team of mental health professionals recently deemed his behavior "paranoid" and "delusional" (1). Even members of his own party have expressed their concern for his inability to faithfully execute the duties of the office of the Presidency. At the same time, the North Korean threat has increased significantly. In addition to the devastation they would bring to our friends and families in South Korea, their capabilities now reportedly include striking the United States at home. The President's foolish and unnecessary escalation of tensions on the Korean peninsula speaks volumes to his failure to comprehend the magnitude of our times. We have placed the greatest existential threat the human race has ever known in the hands of a man unfit to serve. Now, more than ever, we need strength from the rest of our elected officials, that they may stand tall for the American People - and in doing so, commit themselves to the defense of life itself. Let us honor our veterans and the People of Nagasaki and Hiroshima on this somber day; let us learn the lessons of our past and pledge to protect humanity from the atrocities of nuclear war. We demand that Congress execute an emergency measure to curtail the President's access to any and all nuclear weaponry or other weapons of mass destruction. Let it be resolved that any use of such meteriel requires the prior consent of 2/3 of the Senate. 1. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world-0/donald-trump-dangerous-mental-illness-yale-psychiatrist-conference-us-president-unfit-james-gartner-a7694316.html

The Whitehouse seems unable to stop Trump's reckless tweets that threaten to bring the world into nuclear war. CEO of Twitter Jack Dorsey has said that Trump's tweets keep him accountable, but according to strategic analysts they are now seen as the Leader's Word by both North Korea and US allies alike. We call on Twitter to act on behalf of all world citizens and immediately and urgently suspend Trump's account before any more incendiary tweets reach Pyongyang.

I do not want to die in a Nuclear Holocaust.I hope to god no one of us ever is.

Nuclear war has only losers, no winners. We, citizens of the world, in our pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, and in recognition of every individual's right to the same, prefer you not engage in nuclear war.

It's moved beyond funny, outrageous or unbelievable. The people of the United States have a mentally unstable president who is surrounded by sycophants unable to moderate his social-media use. Since Citizens United gave corporations the same right to affect politics as people, we demand that corporations also share in the responsibility to be good citizens. Show some corporate leadership, Twitter, and close down @realDonaldTrump!

Donald Trump is making us all more unsafe with every war-mongering comment, tweet, and threat. His rhetoric threatening North Korea with "fire and fury" is exacerbating a dangerous situation, putting the people of Guam--and everyone around the world--in grave danger. While a nuclear North Korea is a real concern, the answer must be diplomacy-first, not a rush to a potentially devastating nuclear war. The American people say "no" to war with North Korea.

The Endangered Species Act is helping to save more than 1,600 U.S. plants, fish, and animal species from extinction so they will continue to be a part of our children's and grandchildren's worlds. This benchmark conservation law has saved the bald eagle, gray whale, grizzly bear, and many others and has a whopping 99 percent success record at preventing the extinction of listed species. In spite of the success of this law and the urgent need for the protections it provides, Congress has taken aim at it with more than two dozen pieces of legislation that would weaken it. Bills that would transfer Endangered Species Act listing decisions from scientists to politicians, legislatively delist wolves, and block courts from reviewing these actions.

After meeting with Dow Chemical, Trump's EPA turned its back on our children and reversed its decision to ban the dangerous pesticide, chlorpyrifos. Listed as a neurotoxin by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, this potent chemical has been connected to permanent and lasting brain damage, autism, ADHD, declines in IQ and reduced cognitive function in young kids whose mothers were exposed during pregnancy. Public health experts from Harvard and Mt. Sinai Hospital are seeing these health issues on the rise among children, calling it a “silent pandemic.” More than 1 million pounds of this chemical is applied in California every year on crops like corn, soy, almonds, oranges and grapes, so a California ban would send a strong message to the rest of the country. Jerry Brown has the chance to lead where Trump has failed. We need him to prioritize the health of our children before this brain-harming pesticide and Dow Chemical’s profits.
