We the People (Petition platform)

We the People is an online platform created by the U.S. government that allows citizens to start and sign petitions, expressing their opinions and requesting action from government officials. If a petition receives enough support—typically 100,000 signatures within a specified time frame—the White House reviews it and responds publicly. The platform fosters civic engagement by providing a direct channel for citizens to communicate their concerns or ideas, encouraging participation in the democratic process and transparency between the government and the public.
