The elderly, college students and other young adults, and the poor (those for whom addresses change suddenly or frequently) would be adversely affected by this law. I conduct a singalong at a local retirement center and discovered that one of my faithful participants had not voted because she THOUGHT she needed a voter ID card since her address had recently changed.

I believe there is STRONG evidence that deliberate ATTEMPETED and ACTUAL voter 'suppression' occurs in several States, Counties and cities across America. There are also reports that Karl Rove attempted to 'hack' Ohio voting machines. A FEDERAL review/investigation ("Special Prosecutor") should be assigned to look into these ''issues'' and recommend FEDERAL VOTING STNDARDS or LAWS to correct/protect our FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO VOTE, and to bring to justice those who DID - or ATTEMPTED to - manipulate voting in 2012.

I've heard them for decades. I thought they were gone. Now they are back.

We are over 3.5 million Americans living as second class citizens in Puerto Rico. On November 6th, of 2012, over 63 percent of the voters elected to end the colonial status and demand of our political leaders to grant Puerto Rico as the 51st state. President Obama promised to work on this issue should the people of Puerto Rico demanded statehood.

not getting voting results same day as we vote.

Muslim in America are marginalized, hated in many States, they have been denied the right to practice their religion, they are being steriotyped they being accused to be terrorist and unloyal to American. President Obama it is time that Muslim American are treated equal and respect they deserve. Thank you, Anab, Ashburn, VA

The prejudicial and unwarranted attacks by John McCain on Susan Rice.

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. The original Leahy bill was legislation that “provides enhanced privacy protections for American consumers by . . . requiring that the government obtain a search warrant.”, amended at the request of Law enforcement.

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?

Stopping the various states from implementing laws that adversely work against the voter. We Need a federal system that would keep the times, days and ID requirements uniform and above reproach by individual state governments

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!
