  • Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker Do Not Change Same Day Voter Registration Rules
    Wisconsin is one of nine states that allow voters to register at their polling place on the day of the election, and that's often credited with helping make Wisconsin's voting rate one of the highest in the country. Since the Nov. 6, 2012 election, both Walker and incoming Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) have said they're considering ending the practice, which goes back to 1976 in the state. There are no evidence or facts as to why this existing Wisconsin 1976 rule should be changed.

    HR 2471 will give Homeland Security, the FBI and 20 other agencies greater powers, granting them full access to Internet accounts without first obtaining a Court Order.

  • Supervisor of Elections..Duval County
    A couple weeks ago, I visited our Supervisor of Election's office. At this time, declared my intentions to run for Congress in 2014. I was given two, not so user friendly, web sites, instead of the necessary filing forms, which you'd think, they would cheerfully provide. Another thing they provided was, the Supervisor of Elections email address. I've emailed Mr Holland twice, the heading for this email included, my Arab-American name. All those in the political circles here know, HAZOURI stands for progressive, growth and!,democracy! Is my email being ignored purposely?

  • Keep The Internet Free and Open
    The reason why I start this petition is for the sake of Internet Freedom. Based on what has been going on with the internet, something needs to be done to put all new regulations in to keep the internet free and open; however help keep the piracy rate down alongside. Three bills that were proposed were, SOPA, PIPA and CISPA, which many of us know about. They were terrible bills that would severely infringe upon our first amendment rights for sure. If they had become into law, it would have killed off jobs, innovation and a way to keep our education moving forwards. I'm honestly glad those bills have been shot down. Now we have a new problem, dealing with the six strike program that some of the major internet providers including Verizon, Time Warner Cable, Comcast, AT&T and other companies. Most companies are rumored to have the Six Strike Program implemented around November 28th, some might implement sooner Basically how it works is within the first three strikes against you, there is no consequences; just basically small warnings. The fourth and fifth strike is when the that customer/internet user is needed to take a short and brief online tutorial so educate them, that is in order to get back on to the websites with the copyrighted material. On the last strike, the internet provider will allow the content creators/owners to take legal action. However, there needs to be a court order telling the internet provider to turn over subscriber's personal information to that person or company that owns that material. This was based on AT&T's plan. There are positives and negatives to all the “Six Strikes.” One of the positive to this, it will help find the source of the site that is distributing the copyrighted material, on the other hand it will accuse innocent people who did not do anything wrong (which is one of my greater concerns). Help educate people on securing their networks more tightly. Another negative is that these policies will slow some areas down in the educational field, also reducing innovation in some areas. This Copyright Alert System also will infringe on our right of privacy and also infringe upon due process in some cases. Again, I must reiterate; this will have a negatively impact overall on the internet. Based on these facts, there needs to be legislation banning internet providers from trying to take control of the internet. Please propose legislation to give us U.S. Citizens more protection against policies the Six Strike Policy. Granted the piracy rates are still up, but the companies already have the tools needed to take action. I will try to keep you posted about this current issue. In my opinion, I find policies like this to create corruption for the companies, making even more money on the backs of innocent people like me and millions of other internet users. Decrease the performance of the educational system, stifle innovation and possibly shorten the growth of jobs here on the homelands on which we live, breathe and nurture from. Please help keep the internet free and open to promote job growth, better education; the most important of all, innovation!

  • WI Governor continues to promote voter supression
    I work at the polls on voting day and see just how many people come in to register so they can vote. Eliminating same day registration will make it difficult for many to vote, causing them to miss work to register on a different day. Many won't be able to do this. Wisconsin's top priority should be to see that every person who is eligible to vote can do so. Let's help people vote--not make it more difficult.

  • Say, "NO," to Warrantless E-mail Access
    Senator Patrick Leahy has written a proposal for a bill that will allow access to the private e-mail accounts as well as social media pages of all Americans without warrant, just a subpoena. This is a violation of our Fourth Amendment rights as US citizens and should be blocked. Please sign my petition and urge others to sign. The vote is happening on Thursday!
