This petition currently has four signatures, despite $20 already being spent to promote it. We have not yet reached our first goal of five, but every movement begins with a small group of people willing to care.
Capital punishment can be difficult to confront. Many people engage with fictional stories about justice and punishment, yet feel uncomfortable discussing what the death penalty means in reality. That discomfort is understandable, but lasting change depends on compassionate people being willing to begin the conversation.
This petition needs greater public and media attention to succeed. You can help by contributing $5 toward promotion, sharing the petition to help it gain traction, or bringing it to the attention of journalists and media contacts.
My petition challenging Amazon’s identity-confirmation practices has reached 400 signatures. An issue involving human dignity and the future of capital punishment deserves at least that much attention, and hopefully far more.
Whether you contribute, share, or simply tell one person, your support matters. Thank you for standing with this petition while it takes its first difficult steps.
