Concern Regarding Protection of Peaceful Protest and Government Accountability

I am writing as a concerned citizen regarding recent reports of arrests connected to immigration-related protests and the broader issue they raise about the treatment of peaceful civic engagement in our country. I understand that facts in individual cases can be complex and that courts ultimately d

Oppose The Take Care of America’s Veterans Act - H.R. 9237

I write this petition to oppose House Resolution 9237, The Take Care of America’s Veterans Act. While there are many components have been on the legislative table for multiple Congresses.

Cancer research faces deep polarization due to federal budget cuts and the politicization of NIH and NCI grants. Advocates and oncologists maintain that medical breakthroughs rely on objective, evidence-based science and argue that treating the disease should transcend political divides.The debate e

NO data centers in Minnesota!!!!!

NO Data centers in Minnesota! They will deplete our water resources, heat the land around them. And disrupt wildlife and residents nearby. Plus they are nothing but surveillance centers. We say N-O, NO!!!!!

Condemn the FBI Raids on Ohio Organizing Collaborative

Speak out loudly and publicly against the FBI's raids on the Ohio Organizing Collaborative. Agents raided OOC's offices and the homes of its staff in what the Brennan Center for Justice rightly called "an outrageous fishing expedition" and "an egregious abuse of law enforcement for political ends."

I strongly oppose Jay Clayton for Director of National Intelligence. This nomination is yet more open corruption. Jay's involvement in the corrupt bailouts of wall street billionaires in the 2008 financial crisis and his defense of criminal Russian sanctions violations should disqualify him for hold

I'm writing to urge you to support the House-passed War Powers Resolution H.Con.Res. 86 to end the administration's war with Iran. This unauthorized and unnecessary war has been wreaking havoc on our economy and energy supply and needs to end. Trump may say there's no war, but we just retaliated for

Stop the big military payout! Tim Snyder knows a whole lot more about authoritarian regimes than I do but the warning he issues in his recent Substack column totally makes sense to me. There is no valid military reason to increase the military budget by 50% as the Trump administration proposes. It

No fusion between the Israeli and US military.

We do NOT want our military to fuse in any way with Israel's military. And we do not want to send billions of dollars to support Israel. They have free health care, education, housing while our children and seniors go without any. Staunch Democrat here but I will not vote for any candidate in any ra

I urge Gov. Walz to speak out against the ongoing police repression of civilian peaceful protests in Newark New Jersey, and call out the New Jersey Governor for enabling this violent suppression.

Thank you for your response regarding H.R. 4180, Canyon’s Law. I want to be direct: your reply restated agency talking points but did not answer the core question — whether you support banning M‑44 cyanide devices from public lands.

Please do not pass SF4114

I am one of your constituents, and a fellow MOT. I am writing to voice my dismay with SF4114 and urge you to vote against it.

Thank you for your response to my concern of President Trump and the IRS. However, your summary of the situation leaves several critical issues unaddressed, and I want to clarify why many of us remain deeply concerned.

I am writing as a constituent to express my strong opposition to H.R. 7695. This bill would nullify the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule and prohibit the USDA from issuing any substantially similar protections in the future. It would also mandate new road construction across National Forest Syst

Allow emotional support animals in HUD.

Today, the evil news that emotional support animals will be banned from HUD housing about made me cry. I grew up in the Vietnam era, so many of my peers are Vietnam veterans. I'm sitting thinking about them this Memorial Day and I can tell you, the ones that are still living all have emotional supp
