STOP RFID CHIPS FROM BEING IMPLANTED IN CREDIT CARDS AND CELL PHONES AND WE WILL NOT ALLOW A RFID CHIP TO BE IMPLANTED IN OUR BODIES. THIS TYPE OF TRACKING DEVICE IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. TELL CREDIT CARD COMPANIES AND CELL PHONE COMPANIES WE DON'T WANT THIS. TELL CONGRESS TO RESTORE OUR PRIVACY!

In a democracy, government negotiations that have a far-reaching & profound impact on its citizens should be conducted publicly. The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations are being conducted in secret.

Illinois is the last state in the Union to allow its citizens to partake in their Constitutional right to carry a concealed firearm. After the Chicago hand gun ban, violence steadily rose. In several states with concealed carry laws, violent crimes have decreased. Illinois citizens, with the proper training, should be allowed to carry.

Voting preference is a right by all Americans. Nevada should hold companies and businesses responsible for firing individuals based solely on who they vote for in an election. Lets show the country we are NOT going to tolerate this behavior. Enough is enough.

denying voter rights

Even before the 2012 General Election, accusations of voter fraud and suppression were being made in states across the nation. Voter identification laws, restrictions on voting hours and locations, partisan attempts to mis-lead voters, and problems with electronic voting machines must be investigated so that the cornerstone of our democracy - free and fair elections for all, can continue unencombered by any attempt to change, alter or negate the will of the people.

I am an adoptee of Minnesota who has an amended birth certificate. This is not right. I should be able to have my original birth certificate just like ever other citizen. Amended birth certificates are a legal fiction that should be ended.

Recently I was booked on a Carnival Cruise Line trip through AlandChuck.com. 5 days before the trip ONLY the members that booked the cruise through AlandChuck.com received the below message. This trip, arranged by AlandChuck.com, was called "Drag Stars at Sea - 2012 Caribbean Adventure," and until 24 hours ago there was no mention of NO Costumes allowed. Additionally, calling out only customers that booked through a gay agency to "refrain from engaging in inappropriate conduct in public areas." seems very directed at one select population. CARNIVAL GLORY DECEMBER 2, 2012 November 26, 2012 Greetings Fun Seekers! We know you are looking forward to your cruise next month. We're certainly looking forward to welcoming you and your group aboard the beautiful Carnival Glory. There are lots of special activities planned for your group so we are confident you are going to have a great cruise. However, in order to ensure a fun and memorable time for everyone, we want to take a few moments to make you aware of certain policies and conduct expectations so as to avoid any potential disappointment during your cruise. Carnival attracts a number of families with children and for this reason; we strive to present a family friendly atmosphere. It is important to us that all guests are comfortable with every aspect of the cruise. Although we realize this group consists solely of adults, we nonetheless expect all guests to recognize that minors are onboard and, refrain from engaging in inappropriate conduct in public areas. Arrangements have been made for drag performances in the main theater featuring stars from LOGO TV. These functions will be private and only the performers are permitted to dress in drag while in the theater. Guests are not allowed to dress in drag for the performances or in public areas at any time during the cruise. We're sorry to say that any guest who violates our policies and/or whose behavior affects the comfort and enjoyment of other guests, will be disembarked at their own expense and no refund will be given. Thank you for your cooperation. Now that we've taken care of business...let the FUN begin! See you soon! Sincerely, Vicky Rey, CTC Vice President - Guest Services Please do not reply to this email as it is not monitored.

Election reform is vitally important. It affects all of us even if we haven't had a problem in our own state. It effects the outcome of federal elections as well as State elections.

Employees are being taken advantage by corporations and their greed. Employees are fired who have the courage to try to organize a union. It is so bad now that almost all employees are afraid to exercise their rights for self protection. THIS IS WRONG.

Yes, I am disabled and an advocate in MI. It has been stated to me that it is against the law to have a Handicapped for Resident Reserved sign with a permit/name on it. We have just a "reserved" sign with permit number but does not protect you. All disabled persons should be protected by the police. Apt. building states "handicapped" signs are ugly and does not ad value to their rental properties.

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.
