Dear Supporters,

We are writing to inform you that we are temporarily pausing the promotion of our petition due to a technical issue on Change.org. It appears that a recent website update has resulted in some petition images being stretched or distorted, specifically displaying in a 16:9 ratio format.

We believe this distortion negatively affects the visual presentation and overall effectiveness of petitions on the platform, and we're not alone in this concern. This isn't the first time such a problem has occurred on Change.org, and we hope they will address it immediately.

Therefore, we have decided to hold off on actively promoting our petition until Change.org resolves this issue and restores the images on all petitions to their correct dimensions and aspect ratios. We understand that waiting requires patience, but we believe this is the best course of action.

Why this is important:

Our primary concern is ensuring that our petition is presented professionally and accurately. We want decision-makers to take our cause seriously, and a distorted image could damage our credibility and the effectiveness of our message.

Furthermore, we believe that if decision-makers were to respond to our petition while this visual issue persists, it could potentially invalidate the validity and long-term effectiveness of our efforts. We want to ensure that any response is based on a clear and accurate representation of our cause.

What you can do:

• Please DO NOT share or promote our petition at this time.
• Continue to monitor this space for updates. We will let you know as soon as the issue is resolved and we can resume promoting our petition.
• Consider contacting Change.org directly to express your concerns about the image distortion issue. The more voices they hear, the faster they may address the problem.

We appreciate your understanding and continued support. We are confident that with a little patience, we can ensure that our petition receives the attention it deserves and achieves its goals.

Thank you for your dedication. We will update you as soon as possible.
