We the People (White House Petition Platform)

We the People is an online platform launched by the White House that allows U.S. citizens to create and sign petitions on various issues. If a petition gathers enough support—typically 100,000 signatures within 30 days—the White House reviews it and may respond publicly. The platform aims to facilitate civic engagement and give people a direct way to voice their concerns or policy suggestions to the federal government. It’s a tool for participatory democracy, encouraging citizens to become more involved in shaping national conversations and policy priorities.
