For everyone who doesn’t know, making and signing petitions on change.org will do nothing on a government level. Those petitions might be good for putting pressure on private companies and and individuals, but not for the different levels and sectors of government. If you want a petition that Congress is actually going to look at and consider action on, you need to petition the White House directly. Once the petition has 100k signatures, they are legally bound to discuss action on it. 100k signatures on a White House petition will do more to get the government’s attention than 10 million signatures on a change.org petition.
