Stop the Oregon Department of Agriculture's decision to open 2500 acres to GM Canola.

Were you, a friend, or someone you know, a victim of: -- Deception as to the name and/or location of the business. -- Bait & Switch – Quoted one price on the phone and had it substantially inflated. -- Unnecessary drilling or destruction of my locks resulting in unnecessary replacement and highly inflated hardware costs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are urging all those affected by this national problem to take action in some way or form to solve this complex problem. Initiate a legal case to remove false listings from an internet search engine, online directories, Telco company listings or Data companies. The first thing we need to do is remove the illegal advertising. This, we believe, causes the most damage both image-wise and monetarily to locksmiths abiding by the law using lawful advertising methods. This includes those companies aiding and abetting false advertising including online search engines, online directories, print directories, data companies and Telco companies. The second thing we need to do is protect the public from persons or companies who bait and switch consumers for locksmith services sometimes charging unreasonable high prices, poor workmanship and causing a bad image for all locksmiths. Lobby state and local government officials to enforce consumer protection laws, urge state licensing creation and enforcement, make sure local and state regulations are followed, along with state hiring practices. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsuspecting consumers are continually being victimized multiple times a day in many cities across our land by these criminals as are the small business owners and employees in the Locksmith trade as evidenced by YouTube news videos and consumer complaint sites around the nation. The absolute biggest part of the problem is the Telecommunications Carriers that provide these criminals with the ability to cause their telephone listings with unverified business names and phony addresses to be published in printed phone books, 411 providers, and internet search engines with absolutely no verification or authentication and no rules requiring the Telecommunications Carriers from doing any such directory listing verification. I hereby petition Congress to amend the Telecommunications Act of 1966 to include language requiring every telephone carrier in the United States to obtain positive verification (such as a title deed or verifiable rental or lease agreement) for every address and end-user customer wishes to list in directory where said carrier has not actually installed service. I hereby petition the FCC and each state’s Public Utilities Commission (or other agency that regulates Telecommunications Carriers) to enact rules to the effect of the above paragraph. I hereby petition the DOJ, FBI, FTC, FCC, and Homeland Security to investigate and vigorously prosecute scammers in every industry where they are engaging in this criminal and consumer fraud behavior. I hereby petition the U.S. Attorney General, the Attorney General of my state, and each of our sister states throughout the nation to similarly investigate and vigorously prosecute scammers in every industry where they are engaging in this criminal and consumer fraud behavior. I hereby petition the County and City prosecutors, Sheriffs’ Departments, and Police Departments of every locality in our nation to be vigilant to this problem and vigorously help to eliminate it. ________________________________________________________ Please help us stop the growing Locksmith Scammers all over the USA.

For nearly 100 years, Olympic athletes have been featured on the iconic orange Wheaties cereal box - and yet, hardly any transgender or nonbinary athletes have received this level of representation. Transgender and nonbinary runner Nikki Hiltz is competing in the 2024 Olympics after placing first in trials for the 1500-meter race. It’s time for Wheaties to put Hiltz on the box!

Justice Clarence Thomas must recuse himself from the upcoming case on Trump's disqualification from the presidential ballot case and other January 6-related cases.

It is dangerous to allow congressional candidates to condone marital rape, which is a very serious instance of domestic violence. We are calling on you to denounce Richard Black's comments and demand that he apologize.

We, the undersigned citizens of California, urgently petition you to enact emergency legislation to protect the integrity of our elections. Dominion Voting Systems, a vendor whose technology is used to tabulate votes in numerous California counties, was acquired in October 2025 by a new entity, Liberty Vote. The founder of Liberty Vote, Scott Leiendecker, is a former Republican election official whose public announcements have aligned with partisan rhetoric challenging election security and have included a pledge to comply with President Trump's currently enjoined executive order on elections. This sudden change in ownership to an entity with a clear political alignment introduces an unacceptable and partisan risk to the neutral administration of California's elections, regardless of the technology's current certification status. Public trust is paramount, and this acquisition has fundamentally compromised it. The California Secretary of State's Office issued a memorandum (CC/ROV #25142) on October 17, 2025, stating that the certification of the voting machines is tied to their "system configuration, not the ownership structure of the vendor" and that the systems "remain fully certified, secure, and operationally unchanged." We believe this bureaucratic stance fails to address the serious political and public trust crisis created by this acquisition. The control and future servicing of our election infrastructure by a partisan entity is a direct threat, even if the current software is unchanged. Current California law (specifically, Assembly Bill 969) prohibits a full manual tally of ballots in most elections, forcing a reliance on the very machine-based systems that are now a source of critical concern. The existing "1% manual tally" is a valuable but insufficient audit. It is not a substitute for a comprehensive hand count that would fully restore public faith and ensure this new partisan ownership cannot influence our election outcomes. Therefore, be it resolved that we, the people of California, demand the following immediate actions: 1. Convene an Emergency Session of the state legislature to address this clear and present threat to our election integrity. 2. Pass Emergency Legislation to repeal or suspend Assembly Bill 969 and any other statutes that prohibit a full manual count of all ballots cast. 3. Mandate a Full Hand Count of all ballots in future California elections, either in addition to or as a complete replacement for, tabulation by any machine-based voting system now owned or serviced by Liberty Vote (formerly Dominion). We call on you to act decisively to defend our democracy from partisan capture and restore faith in the sacred integrity of our vote.

Dear Revel CEO, Kevin DeSanctis: Atlantic City has a rich history as a cultural epicenter, with a diverse, hardworking population. However, while your properties were left unscathed by Hurricane Sandy, the neighborhoods in your backyard are in ruins. Families have lost everything to the storm, and many that still have shelter continue to lack essentials, like heat and hot water. These are additional hardships on a town that has already been suffering from extreme poverty and high rates of unemployment. Recovery efforts must be inclusive and not implemented in ways that ensure the rich and powerful are taken care of while working families and communities of color are left behind. We need you to support the community that has always supported you in this extraordinary time. Even as your marketing departments are asking people to “Do AC”, we, the people of Atlantic City, are asking you to “Do More.” We are calling on you to set up stations for hot meals, showers, community space for area youth, and work with residents to ensure full restoration of the local neighborhoods that were flooded during Hurricane Sandy by appointing a community liaison.
