Require that prescription bottles be made out of a plastic (or other material) that is readily recyclable.

Stop the hunter/trapper exclusive control of our DNR and the slaughter of Wisconsin black bears. Two-thirds will be killed as yearling cubs over packs of dogs and bait set since April. Help our bears!

I demand that the following policies are discussed and adopted at your next council meeting on July 14th, 2020. First and foremost, I ask that members of City Council require the Norfolk Police Department to process lethal and non-lethal force reports in order of how recent they are. These records should be released DIRECTLY to the public (i.e. should not first be vetted by social scientists, and Police Chief Boone mentioned he would do.) The public is capable of doing its own analysis of the data. NPD should also release data that makes plain to the public which police officers have the greatest number of excessive force reports on record so that oversight of patterns of excessive use of force can be conducted by civilians. Additional demands include, but are not limited to: 1. FREE PEOPLE FROM JAILS. Marijuana is now decriminalized in Virginia. Norfolk jails must release all those held on charges of possession or sale of marijuana within a month of July 14th. 2 NO INCREASE IN FUNDING TO THE POLICE. Reject any proposed expansion to police budgets. This should include, no hiring of new officers or replacement of fired or resigned officers in addition to fully cut funding for public relations. 3. DEMILITARIZE COMMUNITIES. Remove cops from hospitals. End the militarization of Black and Brown neighborhoods by ending broken windows policing and all iterations of community policing. This includes the use of surveillance technologies to develop in-house surveillance systems. 4. END CIVIL ASSET FORFEITURE. Police should no longer be able to keep seized property. 5. MAKE ALL CITY COMMUNICATION ACCESSIBLE. Documents, minutes, and all other communications from the city must be available in Spanish, Tagalog, and ASL in addition to English. Audio versions should also be available for all documentation.

Los Alamos National Laboratory, birthplace of the world's first nuclear bomb, is responsible for the processing, handling and storage of one of the deadliest substances known to humanity--plutonium 239, and for safeguarding information vital to our national security interests. But without meaningful accountability, there is no reasonable assurance the institution is performing these duties safely, securely or reliably.

The toll of gun violence in Illinois continues to devastate our communities. While the majority of gun dealers are responsible, 90% of gun crimes in the US can be traced back to 5% of gun dealers, some of the most notorious of which are in Illinois. We call on you to listen to the 92% of Illinoisans who support licensing firearms dealers, and urge you to support legislation mandating state licensing of gun dealers to protect our communities from gun violence.

Stop the City of Encinitas from using Lot#19 to build 168 low-income housing units. It is a land-locked property, located next to the I-5 freeway (which is exposed to extremely poor air-quality) and is accessible only through a few, narrow streets that will exponentially increase traffic and burden that neighborhood with safety issues from the projected increase of over 1,500 car trips per day. http://www.encinitasca.gov/Housing-Plan-Update-2018

Our government is tearing families apart who seek refuge in our country. This petition asks you and all Americans to join in a daily protest by ringing bells or making noise in some manner (e.g. car horn) for 10 seconds each morning at 11:00AM local time. Each week (beginning July 4, 2018) the time will be increased by 5 seconds. Let everyone know you demand the government stop this horrific practice
