An NPA (i.e: No party afilliate/unafiliate) for the people, by the people. I share petitions that call out the insanity we are facing, petitions that call for action, and petitions that call to protect the freedoms of we, the people.

![AI experts believe that superintelligence could be less than ten years away, and they warn that we do not know how to control it. That’s why hundreds of leading public figures are calling for AI tools to be developed securely and for those tools to be targeted at solving specific problems in areas like health and education.
Recent polling shows that three‑quarters of U.S. adults want strong regulations on AI development, preferring oversight akin to pharmaceuticals rather than the tech industry’s "self‑regulation." And almost two-thirds (64%) feel that superhuman AI should not be developed until it is proven safe and controllable, or should never be developed.
Big Tech lobbyists say that a moratorium could give rogue actors or states an advantage. But that argument underestimates the catastrophic potential for all of humanity as advanced AI is developed – regardless what country it’s ultimately made in, or if we ever really achieve “AI superintelligence”.
Among the 400+ initial signers of the Statement on Superintelligence are retired military leaders and security advisors, journalists and academics, policy-makers, priests and CEOs. Let’s add our names too, and show governments and Big Tech that it’s time to act.
Add your name to the Statement on Superintelligence.
Just in the last month, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and OpenAI’s Sam Altman have admitted that there’s an AI investment bubble. As the bubble threatens to burst, the pressure on AI companies to cut corners, cover-up mistakes, and ignore warnings, is only going to increase.
That’s why we need to speak out NOW.

Thanks for all that you do,
Eoin, Vicky and the team at Ekō](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xrfmek56jmevxv2dk5uztgd2/bafkreigkvx5rypom4tfqbmaon4rytfegds6a3ilfk27blj7s64fm2gcbxi@jpeg)
![Some weeks, the milk, cereal, eggs, and oatmeal from those paper checks were the only groceries we had.
Thanks to WIC and other federal programs, New Mexicans make it through. That’s why, as governor, I will always fight to protect the programs that help families survive during these difficult moments.
But right now, funding for WIC is at risk because of the ongoing Trump shutdown, fueled by Republicans' desire to cut and destroy healthcare. If this shutdown drags on, over 6 million families will lose access to the nutrition they rely on.
Families deserve security, that’s why, as governor, I’ll always make sure essential programs have the funding New Mexicans rely on — even when Republicans in Washington play political games that put families at risk.
There’s too much at stake. No family should be allowed to go hungry.
If you agree, add your name to my petition today to stand with the families who depend on WIC and demand that Congress end the government shutdown.

![Rashida Tlaib:
The genocidal apartheid regime is once again raining down bombs across Gaza and calling it a "ceasefire." They will never stop until there's a total arms embargo and economics sanctions. The U.S. must stop the genocide.

![That’s exactly why we must continue to build the movement for Palestinian justice and self-determination, pressure Congress to block any and all military and economic aid to Israel, and help keep international attention on Israel and their actions.
So, if you are outraged by Israel’s continued attacks and are looking to take action right now, I have one quick way you can help today:
Add your name to my petition calling on my fellow members of Congress to support an embargo on aid to Israel until a permanent ceasefire is respected and Israel finally addresses illegal settlements and settler violence in the West Bank. The United States cannot and should not reward a violent, criminal, out-of-control Israeli government with continued financial support.

![ICE raids continue across our country, with Chicago currently at the epicenter.
Just in the past two weeks, a number of alarming incidents involving ICE agents have occured. A Chicago teacher said that tear gas wafted toward a school playground. Two women were dragged from a car by ICE agents next to a school during pickup. In a militarized raid on an apartment building, 37 people were arrested in which women and children were zip-tied.
Violent immigration raids are tearing apart our communities and families. Considering that more than half of immigrants are women and girls, violent immigration raids are a women’s-rights issue. That’s why we’re appalled that Apple and Google capitulated to Trump by taking away one of the only tools that we have to stay informed and safe: apps that crowdsource ICE sightings.
Click below to demand loud and clear that Apple and Google protect our freedom of speech by re-platforming these apps on their app stores.
