Flip the Turf. Bring grass back!• “The major chemical components of recycled rubber are styrene and butadiene. Styrene is neurotoxic and reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen. Butadiene is a proven human carcinogen that has been shown to cause leukemia and lymphoma. Shredded and crumb rubber also contain lead, cadmium, and other metals known to damage the developing nervous system. Children may also inhale potentially harmful chemicals that have been detected in the air above rubber turf such as benzathiazole and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), both of which are linked to cancer.” (Mount Sinai Children’s Environmental Health Center 2016) • Studies have found that PFAS forever chemicals are present on skin of players after playing on turf fields (PFAS in Artificial Turf Coats Players Skin by PEER) • The run off from the fields goes into water supply • Studies have found more severe and higher rates of non contact injuries on turf fields for knee injuries, foot and ankle injuries as well as concussions (The American Journal of Sports Medicine 2019) • Higher rates of abrasions and specifically “turf burn” • Turf can get up to 60 degrees hotter than natural grass, increasing the rate at which toxic gases are released & ingested, as well as heat related injuries • Unlike grass, turf does not cool the environment. It does not filter air and water pollutants • In June 2024, Los Angeles City Council’s Energy and Environment Committee approved a motion to study the feasibility of banning artificial turf in the city. What are we waiting for? Let's LEAD the change!15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Giada Carrano

Saving Kenyans from a Brutal RegimeIn June 2024, Kenyan Youth went on the streets to protest general bad governance under President Ruto's administration, from extreme corruption, high unemployment (up to 67% for people aged 18-34 years), and over taxation. The President of Kenya at first declared it treason, threatening to crash Kenyan citizens, before he pulled back. These young men and women went to the streets with their cell phones and Kenyan flags, and met a fully armed police force that brutalized, murdered, and abducted them. Over 60 young people were killed like dogs in the streets of Nairobi and other cities. Some shot in the backs as they ran away. The Kenyan Police structure serves at the president's pleasure, he therefore cannot wish away this blame. The buck stops with him. To date, some of the abducted have not been found, dead nor alive. As all these was happening, matter of fact, up to a week before the eruption of protests, there seemed to be a US extravagant praise for President Ruto in the media, at home and abroad. At home it may have been the government’s propaganda machine, but where the ex-Kenya media houses were getting evidence of his greatness remain a mystery. In May 2024 for example, floods were killing Kenyans as government officials went on public television to brag about a million-shilling belts and shoes. Some blamed victims of floods, stating that ‘rivers are claiming their paths.’ President Ruto has no regard for the courts of law and disregards almost all court rulings. Young people continue to be abducted, the most recent being Morara Kebaso, for the crime of educating citizens on the government’s failures. This petition asks the US government, the US Congress and the US Bureau on African Affairs, to state its position and clearly point to us which pages they are reading from regarding Kenya under President Ruto. Are the actions that President Ruto is subjecting Kenyans to, tolerable in the USA? If not, why is a country that stands for the general good in the world, encouraging President Ruto in killing Kenya's citizens. The US speaking against crimes perpetrated against Kenyans by their president will deter Mr. Ruto. We request that the US remove its stamp of approval on this killer regime of president Ruto. Do 60 young Kenyans need to die, or anyone for that matter, be it American, European or African, before a President listens? We request the USA show its leadership in human rights, to include Kenyan lives, because they too matter. It is the US embassy that continued praising President Ruto even as young Kenyans were abducted, the economy failed, and corruption flourished. The US interests in Kenya and Africa should NOT overshadow Kenyan or African lives. They too matter!167 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Nekoye Sifuna

TMC Dress Code LogWe, Townview students, feel that the dress code on campus is enforced without accountability for teachers and staff enforcing it. We also feel that the dress code is being enforced unfairly onto students with bigger or curvier features. Finally, we feel certain administrators are showing their biases towards their school by not dress coding students of their school. As a solution to these grievances, we propose that all dress code violations be logged. The entries into the log will include the teacher/staff members name, students name and school, and a citation of the specific article of clothing that violates dress code. We feel a dress code log would help to remedy our issues by keeping dress codes on record, stopping teachers from issuing dress codes haphazardly and without reason, as well as provide data for which teachers/staff are issuing dress codes, and from what school the students being dress coded are from.248 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Landry Cannon

Save Beach Mamas Bootcamp!This is a petition to allow Beach Mamas Bootcamp to continue to be held at Kiwanis Park, as it has for the past 5 years. Beach Mamas Bootcamp is a strength training program for all ladies in the community, specifically mothers since it specializes in Pre-& Postnatal. Moms can bring their kids to play at the park and get an awesome workout at the same time. It is for all ages and fitness levels. This program has built a community of women that support and uplift each other, turning this into more than just a workout program but a mental and physical support group. The women of Beach Mamas Bootcamp are devastated that Pender County has ordered to take ownership of their program, requiring becoming an independent contractor filing 1099 or terminate their program immediately. The alternative the county is offering for fitness is a male trainer that has been contracted for crossfit style workouts, at a separate pavilion. He will not allow kids at his program. This defeats the entire purpose of Beach Mamas Bootcamp. In order to preserve this program we must stand together as a community to support our local moms, who seek nothing more than the right to getting fresh air and getting stronger together every day. No program like this exists anywhere else. Let’s show there is strength in numbers by standing together and save Beach Mamas Bootcamp. PLEASE SHARE! And if you have any questions please email [email protected] ttps://www.facebook.com/Beachmamasbootcamp?mibextid=LQQJ4d216 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Jen Webster

Hold Funeral Homes Accountable by Reforming the FTC's Funeral RuleThe Funeral Rule is designed to protect consumers by requiring disclosure of itemized funeral costs. However, it currently excludes online pricing, thereby creating a potential barrier to transparency and affordability. Moreover, oversight of the Funeral Rule Offenders' Program, aimed at businesses that fail to comply with the Rule, is presently done by the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), a private, trade organization. This petition requests a shift in authority from the NFDA to the FTC to regulate this critical consumer protection program, thereby eliminating potential conflicts of interest and ensuring unbiased enforcement of the Funeral Rule. The non-inclusion of online pricing in the Funeral Rule potentially deprives consumers of the vital ability to shop around and compare prices from the comfort of their homes. We believe it is vital to foster better transparency and pricing standards in the funeral industry by including online pricing in the Funeral Rule's purview. It is equally crucial to entrust the Funeral Rule Offenders' Program to a federal organization like the FTC for fair and impartial regulation.311 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Maggie Ann

Petition for a Nuclear-Free Mississippi RiverDemand for 2030 Monticello Nuclear Reactor Closure: • We demand the Public Utilities Commission modify Xcel Energy's 2024-2040 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) to keep the 2030 closure date for the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant. • Recent leaks at the reactor pose serious threats to public health, the Mississippi River, and drinking water for millions. Xcel's IRP shows renewable energy is a more affordable and safer alternative. • In this climate crisis, it is the responsibility of the State of Minnesota and Xcel Energy to invest ratepayer funds in new and long-lasting renewable energy rather than in dangerous and outdated infrastructure that leaks toxic radioactivity to the environment and is prone to further age-related problems. • We further demand that the Governor's office intervene and take responsibility and accountability for these issues which the offices below him have continuously failed to address and have ghosted the community. • We urge the Attorney General, Minneapolis, and St. Paul City Councils to demand the PUC maintain the 2030 closure schedule for Monticello. • The Department of Commerce and Attorney General must intervene in Xcel's IRP to ensure Monticello's closure and replacement with renewables. The undersigned shows support for the above petition and demands Additional resources and sources can be found at: SavetheMississippi.com and nukewatchinfo.org424 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Coalition for a Nuclear-Free Mississippi River *

Tell Congress: Support the right to IVF now!The bipartisan Access to Family Building Act in the U.S. House would establish a federal right to IVF and other assisted reproductive technology. Many legislators claim to support IVF and other fertility treatments, yet this bill is currently stuck in a House committee, without a vote. A discharge petition is circulating in the House of Representatives that—if they get enough support—forces the conservative leadership to finally bring the Access to Family Building Act to a vote. Add your name to urge your representative to support the right to IVF and back up their words with action!400 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Aliya Khan
