Sign this petition ONLY if you had a wonderful day at “A Day Of Hope” ….On September 20, 2022, EBR Schools held a field trip called “Day of Hope” for over 2,000 high school seniors, which they claimed was a “college and career fair.”PLEASE READ… I need you to sign this petition ONLY if you had a blast and didn’t see any of the negative acts that are being alleged. This can be signed by children and parents of children who attended. By NOT signing at all… you agree with the negative allegations….. @ghettowaze reported the allegations of 1 negative experience, but was shocked to see a large amount of kids and parents who were saying the complete opposite supported it with video evidence of groups of students, and even BRPD officers having a blast.

Petition to Rian Johnson, The Walt Disney Company, LucasFilm
Early in the morning on Saturday, Feb. 19th, the Republican Majority in the US House passed H.R. 1, a continuing resolution to fund the government through the end of 2011. As part of their plan, Republicans suggested the complete elimination of the AmeriCorps program. Now, the U.S. Senate is the only thing standing in the way of the end of national service.
To cut federal support for AmeriCorps would be a devastating blow to America's very core. AmeriCorps members commit themselves to improving communities across America for very little pay. In exchange, these volunteers develop professional skills, learn about challenges facing fellow Americans, and make a measurable difference in thousands of ways.
Please sign this letter if you believe that AmeriCorps is a critical thread in our national fabric, and its impact is even more powerful in challenging economic times. We call upon the Senate to Stand for AmeriCorps by supporting the President's vision to increase and strengthen AmeriCorps. In these times, more than ever, we need this critical tool to combat poverty, end homelessness, protect the environment, educate our children, support seniors, and provide hundreds of irreplacable community services.Read more
October 1 UPDATE: More than 120,000 signatures were delivered for the NMFS comment period, but we need to continue showing support for protecting Hawaiian sea turtles, so please continue to sign and share!
My name is Chris Pincetich, and for as long as I can remember, my fondest childhood memories were swimming nearby Hawaii’s sea turtles. My family and friends on Oahu all care deeply about local green sea turtles, known as honu to native Hawaiians, but now the honu are threatened by a proposal to remove protections that have allowed them to thrive.
Over the last forty years, hunting of sea turtles has been banned on Hawaii and now it is common to see sea turtles basking in the sun without fear. If hunting them were again allowed, they would be slaughtered on public beaches for their meat and shells, to be sold to restaurants and turned into souvenirs.
Take action before the October 1 to ensure a future for Hawaiian honu!
Thanks to conservation work by SeaTurtles.org and allies, sea turtles have a fighting chance to recover from the brink of extinction. In Hawaii, they are rebounding from just 67 nesting females to over 800 now. However, their population is far short of the published goal of 5,000 Pacific green sea turtles needed to declare their population as recovered.
The honu are innocent ancient ocean navigators that deserve protection from hunting. The National Marine Fisheries Service needs to hear from you today that you oppose removing them from the Endangered Species Act, oppose the movement to allow hunting of sea turtles, and support protecting critical habitat for the honu. (Proposed rule NOAA-NMFS-2012-0154)
Join our ‘Ohana (family) at SeaTurtles.org to protect the honu, check the box when you sign-on to keep informed!Read more
