Create your
own petitions here,
and please sign these three important new ones created by
others:
Protect
Oahu's water. Release
a man from an unfair life sentence. End
the internet ban in refugee camps.
The U.S. Navy has 225 million
gallons of jet fuel stored in twenty 20-story fuel tanks
constructed 75 years ago inside Red Hill, just 100 feet above
Honolulu’s water supply. We cannot trust tanks that are
now as thin as a dime with the pressure of the 12.5 million
gallons in each tank. Please sign this petition created by Ann
Wright to the Secretary of the Navy, the Hawai’i Congressional
Delegation, the Governor of the State of Hawai'i, the Director
of Hawaii’s Department of Health, and the Environmental
Protection Agency. Learn
more and sign.
Steven Hibbler has been
serving a life sentence in Michigan since 1995. Despite
serious irregularities in the trial, Hibbler was found guilty
and has been denied a retrial. It has recently come to light
that the prosecutor intentionally withheld evidence. This new
information is being reviewed by the Michigan Attorney
General's Conviction Integrity Unit, which has the power to
investigate and reverse any wrongful conviction. Please
sign this petition by a believer in Hibbler's
innocence.
The Rohingya people have relied
on mobile phone and internet access to communicate human
rights abuses to the rest of the world. This access has
also provided lifelines to families fleeing atrocities. The
Bangladesh government's internet blackout and phone
restrictions at Rohingya refugee camps are currently
obstructing humanitarian groups from addressing the COVID-19
threat. Click
here to learn more and to sign a petition to the government of
Bangladesh.
After signing the petitions,
please use the tools on the next webpages to share them
with your friends.
This work is only possible with
your financial support. Please
