Here are some of the most popular and time-sensitive petitions from Daily Kos, the largest online gathering space for progressives.
-
Sign if you agree: Speaker Mike Johnson is a dangerous extremist
Sign if you agree: Speaker Mike Johnson is a dangerous extremist
Mike Johnson, a former attorney for the right-wing hate group Alliance Defending Freedom, holds extreme views on everything from separation of church and state to LGBTQ+ freedoms and abortion rights. He has argued that we do not live in a democracy, and was a leading architect to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. Every single Republican must answer for the extreme views of their new House Speaker.

Sign if you agree: Fox News is a waste of your brain cells
Sign if you agree: Fox News is a waste of your brain cells
We all know that Fox News lies, distorts and manipulates to serve a right-wing agenda. Even worse, though, is studies have shown watching Fox News makes you less informed about politics than if you just stopped watching the news altogether.
-
Sign the petition: Disqualify Trump from running for president
Sign the petition: Disqualify Trump from running for president! TARGET: Secretaries of State
The Colorado Supreme Court agrees, and other states must now follow. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment says that any person who has taken an oath to support the U.S. 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: Respect tribal treaty rights. Stop the Line 5 pipeline.
Sign the petition: Respect tribal treaty rights. Stop the Line 5 pipeline. TARGET: Army Corps of Engineers
Michigan Tribes are fighting to stop the ‘Line 5’ pipeline that would run under the Straits of Mackinac, to protect their Treaty fishing rights, and to prevent escalation of the global climate crisis.
-
Sign the petition: Don't jeopardize Ukraine aid for GOP's anti-immigrant wish list
Sign the petition: Don't jeopardize Ukraine aid for GOP's anti-immigrant wish list TARGET: Congress
Without Congress approving additional funds to help Ukraine by December 31, the United States will soon run out of money for this effort. But Republicans are stalling this aid by demanding draconian asylum, parole and detention policies at the U.S.-Mexico border.
-
Sign the petition: Denounce MAGA Republicans for phony impeachment scam
Sign the petition: Denounce MAGA Republicans for phony impeachment scam TARGET: Congress
Despite a year of investigations which failed to turn up any wrongdoing, the MAGA-led House has launched an impeachment inquiry of President Biden. They are doing this, because Donald Trump faces 91 felony charges—and they want to make him look less bad. The Republican Party is owned by MAGA.
-
Sign the petition: Stop partisan map manipulation
Sign the petition: Stop partisan map manipulation
Gerrymandering poses a direct threat to the principles of democracy, where every vote should carry equal weight, and electoral outcomes should not be predetermined by partisan map-drawing. It's the voters who should choose their representatives, not the other way around. Republicans are reversing this principle, essentially selecting their voters to maintain power.

SIGN THIS: End preferential tax treatment for millionaire fund managers
SIGN THIS: End preferential tax treatment for millionaire fund managers TARGET: Congress
The carried interest loophole allows private equity & hedge fund managers to claim large portions of their compensation as investment gains -- which means they pay lower tax rates than nurses, teachers or sanitation workers. It is the everything wrong with our tax code.
-
Sign the petition: Impeach Justice Clarence Thomas
Sign the petition: Impeach Justice Clarence Thomas TARGET: Congress
Clarence Thomas' exploitation of his position for personal luxury – including cruises, private jets, and resort vacations funded by Crow – is just the tip of the iceberg in his ethical lapses. His refusal to recuse himself from cases with clear conflicts of interest is particularly alarming. His decisions have consistently undermined marginalized communities, challenged democratic principles, and threatened rights like those established in Roe v. Wade.
-
Sign the petition: Demand news networks stop giving Trump a free pass
Sign the petition: Demand news networks stop giving Trump a free pass TARGET: News media
Donald Trump's extremist, hateful rhetoric is getting worse—and if we're not careful, it could get him elected president next year. But the media is ignoring the threat.
-
Sign the petition: The Supreme Court cannot further restrict abortion access
Sign the petition: The Supreme Court cannot further restrict abortion access TARGET: Supreme Court
It has been almost 18 months since the U.S. Supreme Court's disastrous overturn of Roe v. Wade. But now, a Trump appointed judge revoked the FDA's 23 year approval of mifepristone-an abortion drug that has always been safe, remains legal and accessible by mail. The Supreme Court must not allow this decision to stand.

Sign the petition: Stop the next bank bailout!
Sign the petition: Stop the next bank bailout! TARGET: Federal Reserve
Who pays the price when reckless Wall Street behavior causes another bank failure? Not the public! But big banks are lobbying the Federal Reserve to oppose needed tough regulations to prevent the next bank bailout.
-
Sign the petition: Clarence Thomas must recuse himself in Colorado Trump case
Sign the petition: Clarence Thomas must recuse himself in Colorado Trump case
The Colorado Supreme Court has ruled that Donald Trump's involvement in the January 6th insurrection makes him ineligible to run for president. But the case will now go to the U.S. Supreme Court, where it may get overturned. Justice Clarence Thomas' wife Ginni was actively involved in Trump's effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election, and must therefore recuse himself.
-
SIGN: Republicans opposed infrastructure law. They can't take credit for it now.
SIGN: Republicans opposed infrastructure law. They can't take credit for it now. TARGET: Republicans
Two years after Congress passed President Biden's infrastructure law, voters are seeing the benefits: new roads, new bridges and more. But Republicans who voted against the bill are now trying to claim credit, while feeding their consituents anti-Biden propaganda.

Pledge the greatest holiday gift of all: GOP defeats in 2024
Pledge the greatest holiday gift of all: GOP defeats in 2024
The Holidays are a prelude to a very, very important 2024. We are approaching an election year, and it’s not hyperbolic at all to say the very existence of so many things are in the balance: democracy, equality, and the global climate crisis to name a few.
