  • Protect Video Gaming In Illinois
    Illinois Video Gaming is one of the most advanced, entertaining and successful industries of its kind in the entire country. WE STRONGLY URGE THAT THE CURRENT LAWS AND RULES STAY THE SAME. Over the last three years, it has generated double-digit INCREASES in TAX receipts for STATE and LOCAL GOVERNMENT. The main reason for its unprecedented success is currently being threatened in the State Capitol. We call upon the Governor and the leaders in the State Legislature to form a task force to fully evaluate any proposed changes that would disrupt this burgeoning industry and leading funding source to the Illinois Capital Projects Fund -- the source dedicated to adequately funding the repair and reconstruction of the state’s crumbling roads, bridges and schools. The task force should be comprised of interested stakeholders, should hold hearings throughout the State, should solicit input from the public, and should publicize its findings widely.

  • Help Us!! Change Prostitution To Make It: Legal Intimate Companion Experience
    To stop the false imprisonment of women who are trying to make a living and not depend on the government.. We need to stop sex trafficking and pimps who prey on innocent girls and women. If we can make it legal for ladies and the gentlemen who are looking for such service.. Prostitution sounds like dirty street women who are being forced to have sex for drugs or pimps that control and don't contribute to our society like paying taxes and not being handed free money from the federal or state government..

  • Keep the MBLEx in Texas!
    Section 117.22.b of the 16 Texas Administrative Code currently requires a licensing exam that is “broadly recognized for licensure purposes by other states that regulate massage therapists.” The MBLEx is the only exam recognized by more than a single state – it is recognized in 46 of the 50 states. To eliminate the opportunity for Texas licensing candidates to use this exam, by changing or omitting Section 117.22.b, would limit their mobility options. This may make them reconsider becoming licensed in Texas, which would, in turn, negatively impact the industry and the consumers of massage in Texas.

  • Say "NO" to the La Verne Water Rate Increase!
    Our elected officials implemented a 40% increase for our meter charge in October of 2017 in addition to an 8% increase in the unit price for our water and now they're coming back to the well (our wallets!). Proposition 218 requires that the city give resident 45 days advance notice prior to the Dec 3rd public hearing by the City Council. During the public hearing, if a majority protest is received then the City Council cannot adopt the noticed rate increase; if less than a majority protest is received, then the City may adopt the rate increase. A majority protest is 50% plus 1 of ALL property owners noticed, not a simple majority of votes received. Make YOUR voice heard and help ensure our water rates are kept within reason by signing this petition! Oct 2018 City Council Meeting Agenda/Minutes (see pages 136-148): http://www.ci.la-verne.ca.us/index.php/documents/agendas-and-minutes/city-council-agenda-and-packets/936-packet-october-15-2018/file 2018 La Verne Water Quality Report: http://www.ci.la-verne.ca.us/index.php/documents/public-works/840-la-verne-water-quality-report-2018/file

  • Save Columbia College Chicago! Support The Faculty Union
    The administration has used stalling methods and shown that they are not interested in securing a fair contract. They are interested in paying the least amount to anyone who will accept it for a dumbed down curriculum. There has been a decade of declining enrollment and our CEO continues to make over half a million dollars a year with salary and bonuses (!) while tuition increases and teacher salaries remain stagnant. For more details of the union's issues with CEO Kim, please visit CFACResources.com.
