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: Elect the president by national popular vote and ensure the candidate with the most votes actually wins
TARGET: All U.S. states that have not joined the National Popular Vote Compact
Here’s how the National Popular Vote Compact works: If enough states agree to assign their Electoral College electors to the winner of the national popular vote, rather than the state’s own popular vote, we can guarantee the presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes nationwide, without needing to amend the Constitution.
The compact won’t take effect until enough states have joined to guarantee Electoral College victory to the popular-vote winner. So far, sixteen states and D.C. have already signed on, totaling 205 Electoral College votes out of the 270 needed to secure a national popular vote victory.
-
Sign the petition: The GOP must end the baseless Biden impeachment
TARGET: House Republicans
The House GOP’s “highly credible source” who served as a basis for their impeachment inquiry into President Biden has now been charged for lying and falsifying those claims against the president and his son, Hunter. This was never a serious investigation. Time for it to end.
-
Sign the petition: Make the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share. Fully fund the IRS
TARGET: Congress
Ever since President Biden & Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022, the IRS has identified 1,600 taxpayers who reported over $1 million in income and had been skimping on their taxes. It's working, which is why Wall Street billionaires are using their considerable access and power to threaten IRS funding.

Sign the petition: Investigate Trump family profits from White House!
TARGET: Congress
Revelations about the financial activities of former President Donald Trump and his family, including Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, indicate that they may have significantly profited from their political positions.
The Trump family's earnings during his presidency show a pattern of substantial financial gains, suggesting potential conflicts of interest and ethical breaches that demand strict scrutiny.
-
Sign the petition to the Supreme Court: Protect the National Labor Relations Board
TARGET: United States Supreme Court
Trader Joe’s and Elon Musk have both been accused of unlawful, anti-union behavior by the NLRB – so now, they’re taking aim at the entire institution.
In court, their lawyers have argued that their union-busting, anti-worker decisions were legal because the entire National Labor Relations Board is unconstitutional – meaning that they can’t be held accountable for their crimes.
-
Sign the petition to Taylor Swift: Keep promoting democracy
TARGET: Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift is one of the most successful pop stars of all time, and she has used her fame to help inspire young people to vote. The right-wing is terrified. Fox News pundits have lectured Swift to stay out of politics, and their attacks have gotten truly offensive.

Sign the petition: Protect Vote by Mail
TARGET: State governments
The right to vote—a cornerstone of our freedoms—is under attack. Mail voting offers a secure and accessible way for all Americans to participate in our democracy
-
Sign the petition: Protect the abortion pill
TARGET: United States Supreme Court
After reversing Roe v. Wade in 2022, the Supreme Court is now taking up a new case that will decide if and how patients can access mifepristone, the commonly used abortion pill. It could impact patients across the country, regardless of whether abortion remains legal in their state.
-
Sign the petition: End hair discrimination. Support the CROWN Act.
TARGET: U.S. Congress
DeAndre Arnold of Texas was threatened with being unable to participate in his graduation due to his dreadlocks. Policies aimed at prohibiting natural hairstyles have been used as retaliation to unfairly penalize Black children at school and Black adults in the workplace. Congress must pass the CROWN Act to end hair discrimination.
-
Sign the petition: Expand Social Security
TARGET: Congress
Social Security is the most important source of retirement income for a vast majority of Americans. Nearly half of Americans do not have access to or have no acquired retirement savings otherwise, making Social Security even more essential to retirement security.
-
Sign the petition: Oppose Rep. Gaetz’s extreme and false Jan. 6 resolution
TARGET: Congress
Rep. Matt Gaetz has introduced a resolution in Congress stating that former President Trump did not incite an insurrection on January 6th, 2021. A violent mob attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, with the intention of stopping the legal certification of a democratic election. MAGA extremists in Congress cannot rewrite factual history.
-
Sign the petition: The Jim Crow filibuster's time is up. Eliminate the filibuster
TARGET: All U.S. Senators
This November, winning back control of the U.S. House, and maintaining control of the U.S. Senate and the White House, will not be enough. If we are going to pass transformative legislation on racial justice, the climate crisis, gun safety, reproductive rights, or restoring power to the people over big corporations and billionaires, we must eliminate the filibuster.
-
Sign to take the pledge: I'm voting for Democrats in 2024
TARGET: You
The Republican Party is the greatest threat to American democracy, reproductive freedom, equality, workers’ rights, the climate crisis, and more.
On the other end of the spectrum, the Democrats are fighting for the American people and championing these issues up and down the ballot. And we have the receipts!
The choice is clear. The facts are laid bare. Join us in taking the pledge to vote Democrats up and down the ballot this election!
-
Sign the petition: We must protect our reproductive freedom–including abortion and IVF
TARGET: All state governments and the federal government
Anti-abortion extremists are coming after every aspect of our reproductive freedom. They have launched an all-out assault on abortion rights and access, criminalized miscarriages, and have intensified on mifepristone, birth control access and in vitro fertilization (IVF). We cannot allow these attacks on our reproductive rights.
