  • Gov. Kasich: Protecting Our Kids from Pollution Shouldn't Get You Fired!
    Your administration recently forced George Elmaraghy to resign from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency because he was doing his job of protecting Ohio's water from coal pollution, which is also fueling climate change. We are outraged that you are putting coal industry greed over the health and well-being of our children, grandchildren, environment, and communities. We call on you to give Mr. Elmaraghy his job back immediately.

  • Declaration of Interdependence, 4 July 2012
    The unanimous Declaration of the fifty states of the united States of America When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people of all lands and Nations of the World to embrace the political and moral bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to embrace each other and caste off any offending influence of division and contempt for All Present and Future Generations. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men and women are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That when any form of Government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and institute a new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them to seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transparent causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these United State and the World; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of Government. The history of the present Kings of Corporate Empires working in collusion against the best interest of the vast majority of the people of these States and the World is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States and the Earth. To prove this, let the Facts be submitted to a candid world. They have refused to Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. They have expended great wealth to frame the notion of protecting and nurturing the public good as “Socialism”, and “Communism” and an evil while proclaiming the virtues of extracting value from that which belongs to all and disproportionately enriching themselves while abandoning the ugly consequences of their actions upon the many and future Generations. They have forbidden their sanctioned Governmental minions from passing Laws of immediate and pressing importance to the public good, unless suspended in their operation till their Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, they have utterly neglected to attend to them unless self-serving benefits were realized. They have refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of the environment, and human health and safety for large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature for token rights to the Corporate Kings through their artifices—The Corporate Structure, including “personhood” and The World Trade Organization, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. They have called together legislative and Regulatory bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, and they have gerrymandered the processes for the sole purpose of fatiguing the people into compliance with their measures. They have manipulated and strong-armed the Governing process repeatedly, for opposing with human firmness their invasions on the rights of the vast majority of the people. They have refused for a long time, after such manipulations, to cause genuinely representative officials to be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned only symbolic control to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, convulsions within—division among families; friends, and shameful inequality. They have endeavoured to prevent the middle and working class population of these States from continued abundance; having enriched themselves in prospects availed by these States they now burn the bridge of opportunity; moving jobs hither, denying livable wages at home all the while exaggerating the value of cheap goods from distant lands; refusing to pay sustainable wages and the cost of protecting the earth from poisons produced from their business activities in off-shored lands.

  • Fight against police brutality and to reform the "8 Can't Wait Rules" as law.
    As a nation we must come together and enforce to uphold the following rules - Ban Choke holds and strangleholds ( When you place a person in a chokehold or a stranglehold, there is always a chance that things will go badly wrong. Instructing officers not to use these holds and training them in other modes of restraint will likely reduce deaths. ) - Require de-escalation ( A deescalation requirement mandates that officers try to secure their personal safety through distance and communication before resorting to force. ) - Requires warning before shooting ( police officer will be required to issue a warning before they shoot.) - Requires exhaust all alternatives before shooting ( Police officer will be required to see out all courses of action before considering shooting.) - Duty to Intervene ( A duty to intervene rule requires bystander officers to step in if a fellow officer is using excessive force and formally requires police officers to break the blue wall of silence and report such incidents to supervisors. ) - Ban Shooting at Moving Vehicles ( Shooting at moving vehicles is inherently dangerous, and most departmental guidelines restrict it to some extent, but 8 Can’t Wait calls for banning it altogether.) - Has Use of Force Continuum ( The use of force continuum is a specific set of requirements governing what kinds of weapons can be used versus what levels of resistance. ) - Requires Comprehensive Reporting ( police officers are required to report any and all incidents to supervisors) The essence of the campaign is eight procedural rules that Campaign Zero claims “data proves” can conjointly decrease police violence by 72 percent.

  • We demand ethical, professional and honest government from Hamden Town Council!
    We represent a coalition of community members who are vested in Black and Brown lives. We recognize racism as a public health crisis and condone the racist tone and behavior of council member Valerie Horsley toward fellow council member Justin Farmer at the Hamden Town Council meeting on 4/6/21. Ms. Horsley not only demanded for Mr. Farmer to address her by her professional title, she publicly cursed at him and justified her behavior by contending that she is a member of a tribe of women, which is cultural misappropriation and misuse of language. Additionally, Ms. Horsley's aggressive behavior obstructed Mr. Farmer's ability to participate and contribute to the meeting, as well as publicly disenfranchised his being as a black man. We demand that you and Ms. Horsley immediately publicly apologize for this disrespectful and arrogant behavior, also for Ms. Horsley to be released from her duties as council representative for District 4 and for you to publicly declare racism as a public health crisis.

  • Cut Ties With the Fraternal Order of Police
    The continued violence against Black, brown, and Native communities at the hands of ‘law enforcement’ is disgraceful. Police unions are in the business of defending the most consistent murderers and abusers and creating obstructions to justice. We are urging you to stand on the right side of history: refuse to take any political donations from police unions or sheriff associations and donate any contributions you have taken in the last year to Black-led community-strengthening initiatives.
