A year full of opportunities, how will you create social change this year?

Social change starts with you: start a petition in your community! Creating a world where everyone can thrive is possible when we come together and dream.

I'm Valeria from the MoveOn Petition Platform Team, which helps support thousands of petitions started by MoveOn members and progressive partner organizations each year, and I wanted to thank you all for all your support last year. We had a very successful year with many wins for our communities around the country—on the local, state, and federal level, affecting changes in school boards, corporate practices, and public policy—and it was all thanks to you!

By starting, signing, sharing, and mobilizing around petitions, you have been part of social change. Petitions are a great way to show support for a cause, get the attention of your community on an important issue, and demonstrate to elected officials the strength and unity of our communities.

Signing or even starting a petition gives power to members of our community who, because of our country's system failures, often are silenced. Even if you can't vote, you can always advocate for your community with a petition. You know as well as anyone in your community what kind of change and progress is needed there.

This year is full of opportunities, and we would love to see you take initiative. Will you start a MoveOn petition on an issue you care about or an issue that is impacting your community?

This year, we encourage you to start a petition on an issue you deeply care about. Think about a small action that your town or county elected officials, school boards, or even local businesses could take on to bring change to your community. I know you thought about at least one issue; now is the time for a change. You are the best-qualified person to start this petition: You are a member of your community, you know your community's needs, you are familiar with MoveOn's petition platform, and you have the full support of MoveOn's staff as a resource. 

This is the perfect time for a change, and we are here to support you every step of the way. We invite you to use MoveOn's free petition tool to start a petition and take the first step toward making a direct change your community needs.

It takes only one person to point out an issue for others to have the chance to see it and support change. Start a petition today, and together we can create a world where everyone can thrive.

Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Voters just defied history and stopped a MAGA wave of extremism at the polls. But there is more work to do to end the filibuster, codify abortion rights into law, and defend our freedoms, our families, and our futures. We can accomplish all this and more, but only if we work together. 
 
Will you chip in monthly to power our critical work? 

Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month.

No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
