Here are some of the most popular and time-sensitive petitions from Daily Kos, the largest online gathering space for progressives.
-
Sign the petition: Disqualify Trump from running for president
Sign the petition: Disqualify Trump from running for president TARGET: Congress
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is very clear. Any person who has taken an oath to support the Constitution, but has subsequently engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States, is disqualified from holding office. Donald Trump's actions on January 6 make him ineligible to run for president, and he must be disqualified.
-
Sign the petition: Hold Trump accountable without delay!
Sign the petition: Hold Trump accountable without delay!
Delay tactics have been a central and successful part of the Trump legal playbook, shielding him from previous prosecutions. These tactics are designed to force cases to drag on for months—long enough for witnesses to disappear and for Trump to run for office unencumbered.
-
Sign the petition: Ron DeSantis cannot rewrite Black history
Sign the petition: Ron DeSantis cannot rewrite Black history TARGET: Florida Republicans
The new Black history standards approved by the Florida State Board of Education include revisionist and offensive language suggesting that some Black people benefited from slavery because it "taught them useful skills." Gov. Ron DeSantis and Florida Republicans are out of control.

-
Sign the petition: Justice Clarence Thomas must resign
Sign the petition: Justice Clarence Thomas must resign
For 30-plus years, Clarence Thomas has served on the U.S. Supreme Court where he helped overturn the right to abortion, eviscerated the Voting Rights Act, gutted environmental protections and turned on the flow of corporate money that would corrupt our electoral system. During that time, he concealed decades of lavish trips paid for by several major GOP donors, including Harlan Crow.
-
Sign the petition: Denounce MAGA GOP's baseless impeachment inquiry against President Biden
Sign the petition: Denounce MAGA GOP's baseless impeachment inquiry against President Biden TARGET: Congress
In an audacious and deeply troubling move, Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has called for a formal impeachment inquiry targeting President Joe Biden. This announcement comes despite the glaring absence of concrete evidence linking the President to any criminal wrongdoing.
-
Sign the petition: Fight back against Republican attempts to gut critical investments in the IRS!
Sign the petition: Fight back against Republican attempts to gut critical investments in the IRS! TARGET: Congress
Each year, wealthy and corporate tax cheats get away with evading around $160 billion in taxes they owe. But, thanks to the largest-ever investment in the IRS, that can soon change.
-
Sign the petition: Keep war criminal Elliot Abrams out of U.S. diplomacy
Sign the petition: Keep war criminal Elliot Abrams out of U.S. diplomacy TARGET: U.S. Senate
In the history of U.S. foreign policy, few names evoke visceral reactions of distrust & horror like Elliott Abrams. But President Biden made the perplexing decision to nominate him to join the U.S. Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy. The Senate must reject him.
-
Sign the petition: Stop further criminalization attempts on abortion now
Sign the petition: Stop further criminalization attempts on abortion now
It has been over one year since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Beyond banning abortion, some GOP states are now attempting to criminalize traveling out of state for reproductive care. This has to stop now.

Sign the petition: Protect Lāhainā residents from predatory developers & scammers!
Sign the petition: Protect Lāhainā residents from predatory developers & scammers! TARGET: Congress
In the aftermath of Maui's tragic wildfires, predatory land developers are cold calling survivors and lurking around emergency shelters to speak with residents of Lāhainā. Not to offer help or give comfort in the wake of a tragedy — but to capitalize on the vulnerable homeowners who have just lost everything.
-
Sign the petition: It’s time the Pentagon saw budget cuts!
Sign the petition: It’s time the Pentagon saw budget cuts! TARGET: Congress
Every dollar spent on ineffective combat ships or unnecessary & dangerous nuclear weapons not only accelerates an arms race. It’s also a dollar not used to tackle escalating social issues from rising income inequality to declining healthcare access.
-
Sign the petition to President Biden: Keep your promise. Decriminalize marijuana
Sign the petition to President Biden: Keep your promise. Decriminalize marijuana TARGET: President Biden
During his 2020 presidential campaign, President Biden vowed to decriminalize cannabis. To truly fulfill this promise and address social and racial justice, he must remove cannabis entirely from the Controlled Substances Act.
-
Add your name: Solidarity with United Auto Workers! #StandUpUAW
Add your name: Solidarity with United Auto Workers! #StandUpUAW
Union contracts for nearly 150,000 United Auto Workers (UAW) expired on September 14 after the ‘Big 3’ motor companies—Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis (formerly Fiat Chrysler)—refused to negotiate in good faith with workers. This is the first time in history that UAW is going on strike against all three motor companies at the same time.
-
Sign the petition: Child poverty has doubled. Restore the child tax credit.
Sign the petition: Child poverty has doubled. Restore the child tax credit. TARGET: Congress
According to the Census Bureau, child poverty more than doubled from 5.2% in 2021 to 12.4% in 2022. This was no accident. In December 2021, Congress failed to extend the federal child tax credit that had lifted nearly 4 million kids out of poverty. There has been no success at restoring it since.
-
VIRGINIA VIRGINIA VIRGINIA has major state elections THIS fall. Donate $1 to each of these Daily Kos-endorsed Dems to stop Republicans from passing an abortion ban
-
Sign the petition: Save the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Sign the petition: Save the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau TARGET: Congress
A House committee just passed H.R. 2798, a dangerous Wall Street-friendly bill that would leave the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau vulnerable to attack. Congress must act now by not only rejecting any legislation that would break up the CFPB, but also by vociferously defending the agency publicly.
-
Sign the petition: Protect the separation of church and state
Sign the petition: Protect the separation of church and state
The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution enshrines the right to practice any religion, or no religion at all. But recent legislation and court rulings are jeopardizing these fundamental American values. We are witnessing an increasing trend toward promoting Christianity in public institutions, particularly within our public schools.
-
Sign and send the petition: Hold Pentagon spending accountable
Sign and send the petition: Hold Pentagon spending accountable TARGET: U.S. Senate
To date, the Pentagon has failed FIVE audits (the only five it has ever even conducted). Last year, the Dept. of Defense couldn't account for over half of its assets — well over a TRILLION dollars in weapons, ships, and aircraft for which the paper trail is missing or incomplete. We must pass the Audit the Pentagon Act of 2023.
-
Sign the petition: President Biden must take climate action now!
Sign the petition: President Biden must take climate action now! TARGET: President Biden
To address the looming global catastrophe of climate change, the United Nations is calling on global leaders to phase out fossil fuels. However, despite President Biden’s verbal commitment to climate goals, his administration has and continues to approve massive fossil fuel projects.
-
Sign and send the petition: Pass a clean funding bill. No GOP hostage taking.
Sign and send the petition: Pass a clean funding bill. No GOP hostage taking. TARGET: Congress
If Congress does not pass a spending bill before September 30, we will have a federal government shutdown. That would stop many essential government services that people rely on, and even jeopardize emergency funding for Ukraine and federal disaster funds. All because MAGA extremists like Marjorie Taylor Greene are having another political tantrum.
