Urgent: Repeal

US citizens: sign this petition to repeal the Monsanto Protection Act.

Urgent: Call On Obama

jeudi 23 mai 2013 à 14:00

US citizens: call on Obama to require US contractors to pay workers a living wage.

Urgent: Everyone

jeudi 23 mai 2013 à 14:00

Everyone: call on the president of the Maldives to change the law under which a teenager was sentenced to flogging for being raped.

This change is just a first step, because it is also wrong to flog people for having sex voluntarily. (Or for anything else.) This is just one part of the systematic injustice of Islamic law, and the elimination of that form of cruelty must be the goal.

Urgent: Fire Elizabeth Lederer

jeudi 23 mai 2013 à 14:00

Everyone: sign this petition calling on Columbia University to fire Elizabeth Lederer.

Prosecutor Elizabeth Lederer bullied people into false confessions for a murder even though DNA evidence suggested the culprit was someone else.

This was a callous disregard for justice, not a mere mistake, so it deserves punishment. For her to be fired from teaching is not an adequate punishment for this, but it is better than nothing.

Urgent: Cut CO2 Emissions

jeudi 23 mai 2013 à 14:00

US citizens: Call on Obama to act now to cut CO2 emissions.
